Woodhouse grange

[mmitchell 10]

Has the ponds at woodhouse grange been netted by any chance, only we went there last Sunday, and not just us but all the weights from the matches as well was poor.

Don't know if it's been netted or a lot of fish have died.

we fished the cobble lake and one after an other we were just pulling small carp out, and there was no sign of any of the big stuff ???

 

Next week we are thinking of going to Aston ponds, never fished them before, which pond is the best for carp fishing.

Thanks

Looks from the website that the Lilly lake is the one with big carp

The lilly pond is the smallest one, we have fished it for over 3 yrs now the dog kennel Cobble and the king fisher lake and this is the worst season we have had.

To be honest with the spawning season around its hard to judge however I know the dog kennel and the other older match lake are shadows of their former selfs, kingfisher and the ghostie lake have been great the last few years, maybe the other lakes need a top up of smaller fish to kick start the feeding of all the fish ?

Split is the most consistant at Aston but its usually matched up at the weekends, Lilly is also decent with a good head of decent carp but plenty of silvers as well. (Forum are having Lillies next charity match on Split on 21st Sept)

Doug you're right it is hard to judge around spawning times. We were at Lodge Farm yesterday on long island & lilly the fish there pull like hell, there were a few dead fish I saw what appeared to be a couple of mid doubles. I have no doubt these victims were nothing other than the effect of spawning.
