Milton Lake Latest Catches week ending 25/2/18

Milton Lake is the place to try for a catch of prime roach, using a waggler on a running line or pole just a short distance out, close to the pads, where they can be lined up with a little-and-often loosefeeding approach. And in the mild spells there are crucians, tench and bream to be caught, along with occasional carp.

The lake’s specimen roach are a prime target when the other species are more subdued due to the low temperatures.
One angler this week had a good catch of roach, including two of over 1 lb, float fishing maggots from peg 2.
