droid 11 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 A 5lb chub's a good fish. Try a maggot feeder. Get the feeder as close to overhanging banks or vegetation as you can. Size 16 or 18 hook, 30cm hooklength. Quote Link to post

ferreterni 29 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Big chunk of bread flake can be a good job at times. especially of there's ducks nearby and people feeding them. Quote Link to post

Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 if theres no pike about then free line a small whitebait Quote Link to post

allrounder 47 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 ive fished the tees alot mate near dinsdale and ive had alot of good results using lestercer red cheese mate if that helps Quote Link to post
markp76 0 Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 (edited) Why's no mone mentioned floating crust? Great summer bait and have to agree with the other lads about slugs {the bigger and blacker the better} try to cast in with a nice big plop you'll usually get a bite within a minute if the fish are there but remember the twitch as well Edited July 8, 2009 by markp76 Quote Link to post
