Netting

[waterpig]

Why were they netting that pond anyhow? Just to check what was in it or are they moving fish about?

just moving fish about got alot of skimmers out

just spoke to terry on the phone and around 800lb of silvers removed from the carp lake

I think 800 is a bit optomistic, but it wasnt far off.

Only about 20 or 30 carp though. So I dont know where all the others have gone

they hug the bottom and as soon as the net goes over a bump they shoot under it we netted a lake afew years ago and only got 3 and we knew they were over 15 in

I got 29 on the video and know I missed some that Andy threw back while I was trying to picture the ones that were weighed.
Chef's weights added up to 804lbs.
Just watch the residents grow now! Not sure what it will do to the Gt. Pond.

i think the matchmen will benefit as long as the feed keeps going in saying that i might have to bait the great pond to make sure they keep getting the quality bait they have become accustomed to  when i return of holiday it will be about time to up the bait quantities

I stand corrected on the weights

I must have wandered off when the last ones were done

Me and Hursty fished it today and didnt do any good so we went onto the bridge pond and blanked there too!

Fred O'nion fished the Bridge on Saturday afternoon, peg 1, red maggot for 4 carp about 4lbs each and a handfull of perch.
Mark Glossop had 4 skimmers on the Gt. Pond on.....wait for it......pellet! So it must be warming up.

Now come on who you trying to kid! You know there are no fish inthe great pond!
