Croftonblade   10 #1 Posted August 9, 2015 Im fishing a match on the Split lake in a couple of weeks. Not fished it before. Can anyone give me any pointers as to tactics, baits, depths etc please? Thanks, Rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
DaveGas   10 #2 Posted August 11, 2015 I believe that the method at present is long pole about 14m fishing on the deck and also fish shallow on this line as well with pellets, give Alex a call who owns the lakes he is a nice lad and will give you plenty of up to date info.  Good luck with your match.

Croftonblade   10 #5 Posted August 15, 2015 Cheers, 6 or 7 m sounds more like my pole tactics than 14m. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Croftonblade   10 #6 Posted August 30, 2015 Well, we fished our match yesterday and averaged more than 22lb per angler. It was won with 44lb - a couple of carp plus lots of ide caught fishing top 2 + 2 with maggot. I trailed in 6th with 25lb+ mainly on worm and caster at 9m- again 2 carp and 37 ide. Good venue and we'll certainly be back. Thanks for advice lads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It drives me nuts when people go on forums (and its rife on fishing forums) asking for info, which is freely given and you never know what happened. Sounds like you had a decent day!
