Milton Lake Latest Catches week ending 13/10/19
Milton Lake is the place to head for if you want tench, bream, crucians and specimen roach, along with a chance of a bonus carp, either on waggler with a running line, or pole close in or up against the lily pads.
Fish can often be lined up with a little-and-often loosefeeding approach, using small baits and very small balls of groundbait, and are particularly active when the weather is warm.
Alan Derbyshire was in action again, this time fishing an 11 m pole and single red maggot on a size 20 hook at peg 22 for ten crucians, some skimmers and small perch, cupping in walnut-sized balls of groundbait and 2 mm pellets.
