CADAC

Upon arrival the lake looks daunting but pleasant! The lake bottom appears to be almost completely gravel with a few features (humps and bumps) found at the far end.

The weather is 9 degrees Celsius and raining fairly heavily with no change expected.

Bivvy up, Supa brolly set up and rods out;
Rod 1: Carp company caviar and cranberry dumbells.
Rod 2: Method mix and 10mm cream and nut boilie.
Rod 3: CC Moore live system and complimenting stick mix.

  2. Albeit a very wet evening and a soggy morning I managed to land a Bream PB of 12lb in the evening on Live system although little other actively less some chatter on the Carp Company boilies.

    Early bait up on all three rods resorting to Bolt rigs across all three saw further chatter on the Carp Company bait and a run on Live system.

    I would very much like to return to this lake in the future (in the dry and without wind) for a chance at the carp.

    The bailiff offered some wisdom regarding bait suggesting less is more and highlighted the central gravel bar from the northern bank to half way across the lake and the shelving at the southern end.

    This will be useful knowledge for return visits.
