[Danny]

Hello


Had a nice day here yesterday 24/09/05. Fished well a few nice carp, 1 very nice barble and lots of silvers.

No keepnets allowed though.............

[Bri]

Good venue mate.

I have had a good few days ther myself. Though I have to bring my nephew sometimes. Bit of a pain but it keeps his mum happy ;D ;D ;D

[Bri]

Just had a session on here. Another half decent day. Had a few carp up to about five pounds and also had one of my fave fish.


A lovely Golden Tench.

Fished with red maggot on the pole at about seven meters.

Opps had mistaken Lingmere for GreenLane Park. Anyway back to Lingmere was back there about 2 weeks ago. Was on the pellets.

Was fishing on the pleasure lake next to some bushes and caught a couple of carps on the pole.









Saw this fellow crusing the water.. Seems injured though

[Bri]

Looks like you had a nice day there Matty boy.

Alright Daveb

Lingmere is a day ticket water and very good also. It has a match lake and a pleasure lake. The pleasure lake is what I fish most and as a very good head of fish. The lake itself is very nice with high banks all around to keep the wind away, lots of pegs and the fish run upto mid doubles. You can have some good action on the pole or throw a lead over to the island.

If you know where Morton lighthouse is you cannot miss it, just ask a local.

I like the place and would recommend it ;D

Hers a couple more from there.......






PS, Toryboy should give some proper directions when he logs on, or just PM him.

Cheers BC

[daveb]

oh eye,looks real good with nice secluded pegs,and some great looking fish,but dont know where morton is let alone the lighthouse,just had a llok on autoroute and theres a few mortons! is it in derbyshire? (by the sea

[Bri]

Its Morton on the Wirrel mate. I will post some proper directions when I get them.

[Danny]

Morton is junction 1 of the m53. As you go down the slip road it will take you onto a dual carageway take the first left turn. About 1 mile up that road you can see the light house in front of you go up the soie of it down the private track/road. if you need ant further directions P/M me.

[daveb]

thanks for the directions,will have to have a recci,will let you know how i get on ;D

[Bri]

Hey Toryboy, this is your neck of the woods. Do you now if its fishing at the moment. Come on give the boys some info.

[Danny]

Carp and chub are feeding well on the match lake. Long pole and maggot is working best.

[alan76]

Club match here next Sunday on the match lake, hows it fishing,what methods are working? Cheers Alan.

[bigdave]

peg 20 and 21 is the place to draw mate, puts you next to the island, get it as tight to the island as you dare with a feeder( clip it up)...only certain pegs can fish against the island, if your near it look for a corresponding numbers that matches your peg on the island, you can fish between these numbers

[KeviN]

Lingmere fishing good at the moment? I don't have decent pole like bigdave, just got a 8M margin pole

[Danny]

Come on guys any info am thinking f fishing here my self tomorow

[kick]

while your fishing feeder/long pole keep a trickle of bait going in the margins either side and have a look after an hour,found that whatever line your fishing keep steady trickle of bait going in even when your not catching

[Danny]

Well fished here this morning. After ariving at about 9am to find only 2 others there and the sun was out i was happy. Fished my pole to 8 meters on soft pellet over micro's. first chuck got a f2 (and second third and forth). After about 45 mins got into a nice big carp had a good fight with it while the balif was on my sholder telling me he has put in 500 f2's and 1000 ghost carp oh and not forgetting to tell me how s*** my pole is (nice touch i thought)................back to my big carp. just as i was about to land it i got snapped. Could this have anything to do with my s*** pole i thought??

Anyway after another few f2's i got a very nice golden tench. another few carp about 2lb and a coulpe of roach.

All in all a good day untill i had to come home cos a got snapped and lost my hook tie..................STOP LAUGHING

Well worth a visit at the moment but dont think the match lake is doing much at the min.

[KeviN]

good report toryboy!

Could you please tell us what bait you used there?
Mathew and me may try there tomorrow.

[Bri]

Alright Kev.

I don't laugh at you becoz I dunno how to tie spade end knot by hand either. But i always keep some eyed hooks and I can tie knotness knot.

[bigdave]

i can tie a spade end by hand, but why bother when the hook tiers does such a good job, mind you i can just about feel a 22 in my fingers nowadys so maybe i woudnt manage it

[mathew]

After handing in my photography project in School, I rushed down to picked Kevin up to go to LingMere, after getting lost halfway in Morton, We stopped by Morton Angling and the shop owner was very helpful, he personally brought us to the fishery. Cheers Mate.

Anyway we started fishing at about 11am and the fishing was good...
However the wind was the main issue today which left me with a bad hair day.

Within 10mins I hooked onto my biggest carp to date estimated maybe between 8lb to 10lb (My personal best up till date) on a medium elastic which took me about 10 to 15mins to land and another carp about 5lb to 6lb. Lost a couple of nice one... And landed loads of small F2's, tench, a skimmers.

Kevin on the other hand had quite abit of handful of F2's and about 3 carps within 4lb to 5lb.. One nice tench we estimated maybe 4lb+ ..
But not too mentioned he lost one run away train...

Overall it was a nice day out and hope that the next one would be just as good. Will be waiting for Kevin to post up my pictures of me fish and me "Bad Hair Day" due to the wind.

Here are the pics.

Kevin into one of his fishes.


Kevin and his first tench.
