Matches Open Sundays on Lookout Island Easter Sunday open Lookout Easter Monday will be a pair’s match on Bowes Wednesday Evenings starting after Easter weekend Sunday Spring League will be starting up alongside the Opens from 6th April News on Fish Thieves We had an amazing response to last weeks announcement about intruders with night lines, spikes and rings, with emails and telephone calls, so a big thanks to everyone. We have been able to run cameras back to times and days stated by the different correspondence and cut onto disc happenings for the police as evidence. We will keep you posted on progression and still ask everyone to keep an eye on the lakes if passing. A night watchman is due to start soon so offering even more security as well as Ann & Arty living on site and the CCTV cameras, and season ticket holders doing night fishing will obviously be on the lakes also. Many Thanks keep an eye on your waters as fish theft’s is happening all over the country. NB I apologise but I will not be stating best pegs or size of fish caught because this then gives the thieves knowledge of where to target. I will try to keep anglers informed but information that is more general.

Match comments: Chris used bomb towards island with single maggot Another very windy week, knocking presentation on all methods of fishing, you could almost use trotting techniques in the high winds as the water was moving so fast and wave motion was incredible, water temperature dropped again but still catches were made, Fish have been following the wind and are moving well. We have had intruders (2) with night lines in Angel lakes on Monday Evening / Tuesday early morning we are offering a reward for information to gain an arrest and conviction of the people involved in these offences.

Match comments: Strange start in thick fog if using the tip you could not see where you have cast, you also could not see any of the other anglers until well after 11 am. After the dramatic drop in water temperature last week it has rose slowly to 5 deg on Sunday, some great catches on all lakes on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, fish have shoaled again also moving around more, with the water temperature drop suddenly and slow rising, they are looking for warmer thermals, best hook baits maggot, sweetcorn, worm and pellet, feed small amounts of angel pellet or some maggot.

Match comments: Paul used tip to island after snapping his pole, wind gusting ruined presentation, Carp at last have started spawning very late with all the rain and weather conditions alternationg swings in water temp from 15.2 to 19.1 with rapid drops and rises of water temp. We now have 18.1 plus deg water temp for a few days giving the carp the magic 18 deg they need over 5 days to spawn.
