Home Farm Fishery

Third week in a row at Home Farm in Mamhead
After last weeks struggle i thought i would have another practice before this saturdays open comp.
Arrived around 9ish and quickly set up.
Bomb and Bread would be my first plan of attack followed by 2 pole line at top 6 one with sweetcorn and one with pellet over micros and then finish in the margins
Day started very well on the bread and i had 4 in the first hour including a lovely 8lb fish.
It then went a bit quiet so tried the poles had the odd fish off both but nothing great and they were also smaller fish ranging from 6oz to 3lb.
Neither line worked better than the other.
3 other people were fishing the lake and no-one was catching during the middle of the day and i couldn't work out what to do.
A quick try on the bread produced 1 quick fish but that was it so i started feeding my margins quite early which worked an absolute treat and i had a fantastic afternoon catching plenty of carp from 1lb to 7lb.
At the end of the day i had a good chat with the owner Glen who has high hopes for the fishery and is working tirelessly to improve all aspects of the fishery from new platforms to new fish and removing alot of the silt that is causing the lake to be quite shallow in some areas
So looking forward to Saturday and hoping the wind and rain aren't too bad and we all have a good days fishing.
