Golden
Pond
Although the best catch to date was caught by
an experienced carp angler (180lb in 12hrs on
hair
rigged halibut pellets) by far the most popular
method is waggler fishing the features and margins.
Just keep it simple! In spring and summer, surface
fishing with mixer biscuit or crust is fantastic,
with many people taking up to 20 or more off
the top in the evening. In winter the roach fishing
comes into its own, especially to pole anglers
who gradually work the swim up. Heavy groudbaiting
is banned, but loose feeding, little and often,
is the ideal fish attractor.
