Hi guys,

 

I fished Risby park tonight for the first time. It certainly won't be the last as I had a really good night. Caught roach, rudd, and bream. The bream were in the 2-3 lb range and one of the roach was over a foot long. There were plenty of carp eating bread off the surface, of course all of the bread I had wouldn't stay on a hook for anything. I know for next time though. I should have known better having fished bread on the surface for carp before. But, I wasn't planning on it.

 

The lakes are really nice and in a great little setting. I'll definitely be back, especially for 4 quid after 5 PM.

 

Thanks

Rick

 

should have mentioned that the roach came on maggots, the rudd and bream on corn and/or breadball that was sunk. Half were on a whip, half were on a float rod.

 

thanks,

rick

Good going mate :) Never fished there myself but heard it's a good spot. A fair few matches there though so be careful if you intend fishing at weekends.

yeah, fortunately they hold most of the matches on weekends. Since I'm only 5 minutes away I like the evening ticket for £4 and they don't have so many matches in the evenings (certainly not one of every lake like weekends). They do post their calendar on the website which is really nice. I'm really happy with the place.

 

Thanks,

Rick
