spring pools, rugby

Good luck mate hope you catch a few and let us know how you get on.
When i go im thinking of small bags over small bed of particles once found something to fish on. Is it not advisable to start crashing round with the marker when i start? Will it ruin my day?

just spoke to steve the owner , 4 fish out including one of the big girls at 29lb odd so fingers crossed for our trip on sunday

anyway apart from that nothing really , water was gin clear and cold and the fish just were not chuffing at all .had a walk around to the opposite side and could see patches of boilies freebies etc that had not been eaten .

Spent last 3 hours on monday stalking a group of three fish by peg 5 in the shallows but they would not even eat the free offerings , three or four times the biggest of the three (very high twenties) had her nose about 2 inches away from the hookbait but just would not take it , but great fun all the same .
love this place , will be there a lot this season (chinese take away to your peg is excellent)

Yes mate it's lovely, and russel the chinese delivery dude is class!

tall bloke , well spoken

Gutted about the big girl but theres always the next time.

Chinese delivered to the swim........mmmmmmmmm, should do that at every fishery.
