Norfolkdan 0 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Probaly going on a day session trip tomorrow to Gimmingham Lakes, but the weather is forecast for 15mph winds and lots of rain. Will carp still feed in that sort of weather?? Was probaly going too leger 2 rods with boilies. Supposed too be highly stocked with carp averaging mid doubles. Dan Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony78 16 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Look for fish under the trees trying to keep dry Only kidding!! yes mate they will still feed during the rain. Ive even seen carp taking dog biscuits off the surface during a heavy downpour. if its a south westerly which I think it probably would be get down to the bank that the wind is blowing in to and you should find a few fish.

Peter Sharpe 0 Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 In my experience, fish rarely feed well during heavy rain. Immediately after it stops is a different story though and the following twenty minutes or so can be a major feeding spell. English as tuppence, changing yet changeless as canal water, nestling in green nowhere, armoured and effete, bold flag-bearer, lotus-fed Miss Havishambling, opsimath and eremite, feudal, still reactionary, Rawlinson End.
