I did see (yesterday) a programmE about Longleet and there netting/selling of silver fish, could be worth a phone call.

Try the above.

It has a list of prices and contact details.

My club " Ladywood Angling club "

has bought bream from them.

The last bunch : 11 fish 141lb

They were big doubles, we are hoping they will spawn so we get their strain of skimmers for the future.

bradford angler,

i'm from your neck of the woods and just wondered where you wanted them for.

Hi Bradford,

Was in contact with a fellow from Carpvale Fisheries in York.Has plenty of fish,not sure of the address though see what I can do for you 2 night.

[Bradford Angler]

have ordered some from

 

Kevin Whincup of Carpvale

 

already, but am after another source too.

 

It is a big order I know...

 

Bigman the water is Knotford Lagoon *Bradford no1

it is for the 125 year regeneration project we are running on it. For more details inc membership try the club site . . . free advertising eh

Havn't read the posts for a while so you may have already ordered. If not, have you tried Humberside Fisheries. I have used them for years. Fish always arrive at agreed delivery time and in good condition despite the long drive down to Suffolk. They are based in Driffield.

Thanks Easty . .

 

the remainder of the stock we took from several other fisheries suppliers - Ken was one of them from Humberside . .

 

sure they won't mind the plug but .. we put in

 

3,500 Bream to 10 inch

350 Tench to 10 inch

3,000 more Bream 8 to 10 inch

and 380 Bream 2.5 - 4.5lb

 

on the end of a previous thread (and for Bruno) we eventually saw the odds were stacked against us with the Carp removal and have adopted the live and live approach . . . hopefully this recent addition will spurt the coarse action back into life

carefull with the sizes ,our fisheries manager tracked down a firm from wales that said they could supply 6 to 8 inch roach (our local one had only 4 to 6 inch at present) when they arrived at the pond they were all <6 :confused: the wales firm measured from nose to end of tail our local chap measured from nose to crook the result welsh fish at a higher cost than local ones

it seems the hardest fish to find are large crucians ,they breed young and proceed to overpopulate the pond stunting themselves
