Carpquarry Catch reports for 2010

10/4/10 – 17/4/10
We have had our first guest over from Cornwall Sid and his wife Lesley and there friends Ron and Viv. This was not a hardcore fishing holiday, It was a holiday with the ladies with some fishing aswell. Sid and Ron both done well smashing there PBs and also a French friends son who popped over for day for a BBQ beside the lake also done well catching the biggest fish within an hour of being there. Carp were caught from the smallest at 25lb up to 35lb8oz all the fish and missed runs were from tight to the far side cliff face from swims 2 to 4 using a baitboat with a couple of handfuls of Carpquarry pellet with a few freebe boilies and the same type on the rig. All the runs were on the Carpquarry Scopex,squid and red robin boilies.
Well done on your new PBs and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Carpquarry catch report w/c 1st May 2010 This week saw the return of Tony,Steve and Nick for there second visit after falling in love with the place back in the Autumn last year.This week was much colder than the last few weeks so no suntans this week. The change in the weather seemed to stop the bigger fish putting in an appearance but they still done quite well with the smallest king carp at 25lb8oz and the largest at only 32lb8oz. Well done to Steve with his lake record wild carp at 12lb.All the fish were caught from the far side tight to trees/cliff face on pop up foam on a chod rig or squid scopex & red robin boilies topped with a yellow pop up plastic corn or foam to form a snowman type bait.

Nick swim 1
Mirror 28 lb, Mirror 31 lb8oz and 2 lost/missed fish.

Tony swim 3
Mirrors at 25lb8oz,27lb,27lb,27lb8oz,28lb8oz and a wildie at 8lb, 4 lost/missed fish.

Steve swim 5
Mirrors at 27lb,29lb and 32lb8oz Wildies at 8lb and a lake record wildie of 12lb. 3 lost/missed fish

Ive missed you, where you been? One good thing about my little puddle is that is does have more water in it than most lakes upto 20 acres,Have not got a clue where the bigger fish have gone but they have not come out yet this year, the best so far is only 35lb8oz. I think the people that have been out this year have done well in only managing to catch the minority of fish that are under 30 but you know what it is like I will have someone here who has only been fishing once or twice and he will have it off and get a few 40s. I think once the weather sorts it self out they will start to show. At the moment it is hot one minute for a week or two and freezing the next.

Catch report 15thMay-21st May 2010
This week we only had two guys fishing Gary and Sean from London, Again it wasnt the easiest weeks fishing but saying that the guys caught fish from the smallest 25lb8oz to early 30s,again none of the larger carp over 35lb were caught they seem to be more interested in eating the millions of tadpoles that are present at the moment.Well done to Gary and Sean who both had fish over 30lb and I hope you had a good 50th Gary and we look forward to seeing you again at Carpquarry.
All fish and lost fish was on there own bait T1 boilies and all runs came from the far side.
