CATCH REPORTS TO 15th APRIL.

Picking up nicely now, with some sizeable fish from both main lakes, and heavy mixed bags from Amiees Pool, to day anglers. Due to the increasing number of fish likely to be banked through the next few months, we will cherry pick somewhat, in not reporting the smaller fish.

The season ticket lake fished well for carp, with five 30's and a 40 reported. Best catch was to Matt Holland, with mirrors of 40.03 and 35.12, and our very capable lady angler, Caroline Rogers, took another 30, a mirror of 32.03. Alan Price of Nash Tackle fished an overnight session on a guest ticket, and took a pretty mirror of 30.02, whilst local member, Nigel Edgecombe, caught a mirror of 31.01. Brian Male took a mirror of 32.05, Anthony Lock took a nice brace of 28.04 mirror and 28.08 common and Mike Pollard landed a common of 27.04.

The day ticket lake also fished well, with Mark Wood taking mirrors of 19.10 & 33.12, just 4ozs short of the 34 pounder taken by his son Richard a couple of weeks back. Brothers Dave & Colin Wood, (not related to the above father & son), both had a fair session, with Dave taking commons of 16.15 & 16.07, plus a catfish of 33.04, whilst Colin had three commons of 13.02, 14.09 & 22.07. Again a number of big fish reported as lost this week.

Another reminder of the NASH ROADSHOW, which will take place on the lakes 16th & 17th June. It is open to the public, all are welcome and it will be an opportunity to look around the lakes. For more details of this event, please see the NASH website.
