If you go there thinking it will be "easy pickings" you will be very dissappointed! If you go there for the challenge of catching decent fish from a water stuffed with natural food (fish who therefore have no need to take any bait that looks remotely suspicious) then you might get some satisfaction.

Years back Southport drains where noted for Bream, tench and big roach. I was talkin to a couple of chaps who live very near to the drains and they said that the water still had plenty good fish but like anywhere you get good days and bad ones, just keep pluggin at it till you get lucky.
I would imagin Dave Lumb would have info on the waters(if he's about) as he's not to far from them. This post has been edited by tigger: Jun 23 2009, 09:23 AM |
