Went to woodstone this afternoon arriving at 3-30,after hauling my tackle over the hill,and people who have been will know what I mean,I got to the waterside,I went to the far pool think its called swallow,I have fished here many times before but was suprised to see the outlet pipe on the swallow pool had been removed,I always like fishing that peg at the end of that pipe,I decided to fish the peg to the right of where the pipe used to be,sat there with the sun shining down on me it was a faboulous day,decided to fish at 5 meters,put 2 cup fulls of small copped meat in with a small amountt of pineapple corn mxd with it,went directly on the top of it and sat there,not much really happened for a while so I plumed up 2 margin pegs either side and started to feed them as well.
after about 1/2 hour the float slid away and presto first carp was on the way,a nice mirror of about 4lb or so,I had noticed that the margin peg immediatley below me had started to colour up and I had seen some swirls,I managed to leave this for a while longer and persivered at 5
meters.Not alot happened again for about 20 minutes then away the float went and another nice carp was netted this time about 5lb or so.
I fed up agan on the 5 meters line and both margin pegs,then started to fish the margin in front of me,after about 3/4 minutes the little dibber float bobbed twice and then bang the elastics on its way.Another carp about 4/5 lb safely netted,went in on the margin peg again and nothing obviously spooked em,at this stage I tried the margin peg to my left which was a bit deeper,first drop in and a fine mirror carp of 7/8 lb it was running riot,lovely fish that was,everytime I fed the margin pegs I was also feeding the 5 meter line and was dropping in from time to time to have a look,,,,both margin pegs had fish coming in and out of them but they were proving a bit finicky with all the disturbance,Went out at 5 meters again and presto they had arrived,really started catching everytime I went in,4 of them about 8 lbs a piece or so,had a really great few hours packed up at 7-30 and estimate I had over 100 lb in the session.....The fish were really fit and fought like tigers even at this time of the year,and the best thing was John the owner never ventured out so I got a free afternoon as well.........I caught most of the fish on the meat and had the odd one or two on the corn///
