Lingmere Fishery 2006-04-22

[KeviN]

Today weather was good, warm, sun intervals and a little bit of wind. Sandy and me headed to Lingmere at around 10:15am.

Fishing was ok for the first 3 hrs, I managed 5 tenchs to 4lbs, 5 skimmers to 2lbs and some small fish.


Sandy also caught some nice skimmers and small carps. But other people didn't catch much and I was wonder why.


Ok, from half 2, I struggled to get bite also. I didn't have a liner or any signal for 2 hrs... I try f***ing every tactics but scored nothing!

I didn't give up, kept feeding my swims every 10min and kept my eyes WIDE open...... Sport was back at half 4 then I managed a few skimmers and rudd then called it a day.

WHY THE FISHING IS THAT BAD IN SUCH A GOOD CONDITION?!

Well mate at least you were catching that is the point
Maybe when you have not caught anything for awhile.. try not to feed every 10mins because sometimes you might end up with a pile of food on the bottom which will fill the fish up. So even if you want to feed during those time keep it to the minimal mate.
Well at least you and Sandy had a good day out

Should be good fishing this weekend then, however it doesn't explain why it was difficult for you the other day. Its all down to water pressure kev. I'll explain more when I have the time.

looking forward to it raf! I know sea fishing feed at big tide when it's full / no moon. that' also make a low water pressure which coarse fish prefer right?
