Parabuteos lad 878 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Been fishing most of my life and i started getting bored of carp still am to be honest. Got more into predators and i prefer fly fishing to anything else, however, ive got a day off on Monday, i need a new fly line and cant be bothered catching any liveys or using deads / lures so im looking for a venue for monday. Im after carp but id like somewhere where there are quite a few big fish and assuming we get the weather. Id like to catch them on the top. fished pilks in st helens a lot last year and the fish are just not good enough same as the hotties. i visited the ocean once last year but we never had the weather. this season ive only fished the oceans once and had an 8 and a 12 by stalking around the lake with bread but i was wondering if anyone knew of a lake like these with bigger fish?
