Skilts Pool Opening day
Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2012 10:59 pm
Fished Skilts today. Fortunate to have good weather and a busy time catching.
Fished the pole @ 10 mtrs on the bottom (5ft) on double bronze maggot with bread crumb over the top.Caught roach just over the 1lb mark. Had 3 tench, biggest near to 4lb. Carp moved in due to constant feeding, 15 carp in total ranging from 2- 7lb. I was going to chop and change different baits for obvious reasons but I was more than happy being kept busy. Maggot feeder was a hit too. Got smashed twice. I guess it was sure to happen with the lumps it holds. I'm going to fish the deeper end tomorrow.
PLEASE BE ADVISED- ALL RULES & Bait info are on the notice board which is located in the hut next to pegs 2&3. They will also be in your renewal pack when rejoining.
From the car park go through the single silver gate and follow the roped path around the edge of the farmers field Continue 150 yards past the white disked tree to the gated/ fenced off area to the pool.
PLEASE TAKE ALL LITTER HOME.
Roger & Steve- A big thanks for the extra work over the last few days and for making Skilts pool happen. That goes to Chris and Jon and all those involved.
I'm amazed that we managed to do that amount of work and turn it around for the opening to members as of today.
Happy fishing to all. Leave some for me.... Lol.
