Peterstone Lakes - 2nd July 2014
(Peterstone Lakes - 2nd July 2014 - The Pencil Lake)
With the summer weather still nice and hot and still i am recovering from the hospital i just haven't managed to get out yet, a bit annoying when you think of all the fishing i am missing. Just by chance Trish and Brian managed to sneak in another summer trip to their favorite venue up at Peterstone lakes, Newport. She said they couldn't have picked a more beautiful day it was silent, with just enough breeze to cool the hot skin from the sun and you could see some of the fish up in the layers sunning themselves, not even interested in food. This didn't put off Trish or Brian one little bit. Trish was using her favorite feeder rod and was experimenting with some paste we had from JJ's baits, The Stinky Fish made up of Tuna and Garlic plus other fish meal ingredients. Not only is is a great attraction but also lets off an alien effect smoke when in the water drawing the fish in. She was happy to report back that the Bream in the lake she was fishing was loving it and she was catching some tidy size fish all day.

Brian's Carp from Peterstone Lakes
(Some nice double figure Carp off the top with Chum Mixer)
 Brian had opted for a different approach and went on a stalking mission on the lake trying to pick off the Carp from the top layers and he said it was great fun resulting in several double figure Carp and a few smaller ones. There was a massive white Carp cruising the waters around where Brian was fishing but no matter what he tried it just wasn't interested in feeding , only sunning itself and warming its body in the sun. Both Brian and Trish caught some quality fish on their latest adventure and said they really enjoyed the day out even though it was a bit too warm at mid-day, as the evening drew in it cooled down nicely and they continued to catch fish until it was time to pack up .

I ,for one ,can't wait until i can join them on their next outing it sounds like they had a great time.
