Had a great days fishing with Bob Nudd at the beginning of the month at Tingrith fishery.
Fished the Fringe lake fishing the pole at about 13 metres putting in a pole cup or 4mm pellets with a few 6mm pellets and fed these into the swim every 30 minutes.
Hook size 16 Kamasan B911 using a Preston 4x14 pole float. For bait I used a size 6mm Ringers expander pellet which I had pumped using gelatine and Marmite. The gelatine to make pellet stay on the hook better and the Marmite to provide more pulling power!
Later in the session I fished shallow using a Korum blob kept in place with a size 8 Stotz and agin using a 6mm pellet on the hook. Fishing about 18 inches deep and firing in about 6 pellets every few seconds fish were quickly encouraged up in the water to feed.
The day ended and when the keepnet was hauled out of the water Bob estimated that I had about 130lb of fish in the net!
