    Tench - fishing on a new lake question.

    Hi Dave. Thanks for your advice. I have started prebaiting a spot but was thinking up to about 10am would be the window but I'll experiment with times. I've been there a few times now and the fish just don't seem to show much at all. The spot I've chosen isn't an option for night fishing so...

    Lead core

    I have used it on both rivers and lakes previously but as others have mentioned stopped due to the safety concerns. The issue that bothered me was when the lead starts showing through potentially stopping the lead from coming off in the result of a break. I now use 15 or 25lb fluorocarbon as a...

    Tench - fishing on a new lake question.

    I'm joining a new club june 16 & will be fishing a large gravel pit. I've spent a couple of evenings up until 9.30pm looking for any signs of fish but have so far drawn a blank, in fact there has been literally no signs of any fish bubbling or showing. The lake, visually at least, is pretty...

    Hemp

    What type of river - how wide, fast, deep etc etc and how would you be looking to introduce it? I've had success using a bait dropper in a small Thames tributary an hour or so before fishing. I wouldn't personally use it solely for prebaiting, I'd add some pellets, boilies or actual food also...
