hi carl if you go on there web site and go on the blogs you will see a guy called phil a good mate of mine and a pendle regular .he is actually the guy on there leaflet with the large common.hes agreat angler and as his blog says is always wiiling to help.i myself will be visiting soon for a 48hr session so will post my results i am also a former organiser and instructor of the north west junior carp fish-in so am always happy to help .location is the main key to successsful angling although i appreciate it can be difficult on a busy day ticket water to get anywhere near the fish if swims are taken .as for bait boilies are not the only bait try maize pepprami halibut pellets wrap them in paste to be different trim down your boilies or try the dumbell shapes nash richworth and mainline now produce.keep a check on the weather use met check input the postcode for pendle then on the hobbies section click fishing and it will give you all you need to know hope this hasnt complicated things for you to much but we all blank from time to time but always try to learn from your session ps dont know if its allowed but have you tried ground bait of any description to? try solar bag mix if you can get hold of it
