Friday 06.02.2010. As me and Luke hayes were spose to be going to do a 24hour at linears fishery, Left my house at 5am and on my way to pick luke up..when i got to lukes we quickly loaded his gear onto my van and made our way to Linears, leavin lukes at 5.30Am after traveling about 1 hour and 30 mins we stoped in the services to meet up with 1 of the other boys Chris. which then we stoped had a quick cup of coffee and a bacon roll.. so then on our way about hour later we got there.. ad a walk around oxlease no pegs available so then we decidied to go have a look at hunts corner same again packed out.. so then we jumped back in our vans and made our way over to manor and st johns which at that point wen we arrived there we knew we were in trouble as iv never seen it so busy.. not 1 peg available on manor. so we decided to go have a look at st johns same again packed but with the od peg here and there, but after speakin to this guy he told us that there was a pike match on the day after so then from that point we knew that is not happening and decided to give whelford a ring to see if it was busy there, once i phoned and spoke 2 rose she said theress 6 on, so we decided to go there instead. so on our way to whelford pools when we arrived and had a walk around the lake, me and luke decided to fish the 2 pegs on the top part of the lake by the point as chris decided to fish where the lake is split and theres a small chanel where the fish can move into both parts of the lake.. so after choosing our pegs we went and got our gear after a hour or two we were all set up and fishing, i was trying out my new grange bait and luke was fishing with cell and fusion. after feeding the tree lined far margin with chopes i got my 1st rod ouit there, my rig was a safe zone clay leeda with a korda iq d rig hook link with a 2 oz pear lead, my 2nd rod was in the centre of the lake where i fed a small bit of partiblend on a patch of silt where i used a safe zone leada silt with a 2 oz pear lead and a 6 inch amnesia hooklink with a size 8 wide gape, so for about 2 hours nothing atall happening on the whole lake just 1 fella catching, so just b4 11pm i brought the rod from the far margin and rebaitied with a 14m grange boilie with a piece of plastic yellow corn, also put a cheesy tuna stick on with it and got it back out there. then i had my last cupa of the nite and decided to get my head down.. and then 3am in the morning i was awaken by the sound of my lovely delkim lol screaming run, gets out of the bivvy with out my boots on ( feet were soakin ) strikes into the fish, and yes hes on =, felt a good fish with after playing the fish 10 minutes later he was in the net wieghing 20lb 6oz well chuffed :)  after taking a few photos i rebaited and got the bait back out there, woke up about 8 the following morning makes my way over to luke to see if he fancied a cupa. after our tea and biscuits chris come around for a chat with me then all the sudden lukes alarm scramed off, looked over and there he was rod in the air playing a fish, makes my way over and watched luke while hes playing the fish, after a good fight the fish was in the net wieghing a stunning 21lb 4oz... pucka.. at that time we were both very happy that we both baged a nice 20lber each great 24 hours.. unfortunatly chris didnt have any luck but still enjoyed a 24 hours fishing at whelford.. cheers tight lines!

Rite hermit heres ur recipe lol.

you can eitha buy it ready made mate but it all adds up. wot i do i buy a 25kilo sack and prapare it all my self wot i do. i cook all my hemp up ready for the nxt day when i go fishing, so then wen i wake up the nxt day just b4 i go say i got 5k ill add 3quaters of chillie powder which u get in tesco, asda etc 99p. so i add 3quaters of it into my 5k of henp then i ad a tup of crushed mixed chillies same again 99p then i add a whole 900gram bag of rock salt, stir it all up and let it all soak then wen ur at ur fishing destination and ur ready to put ur feed out it would av absorbed all the flavours into the hemp.. quality bit of bait i use it as my spod mix but also adds choped boilies corn/maize and a few tins of tuna, always in brine. and also some ground bait, 

hope it works for you!

 

Myself and another 4 of my mates all organised to go fishing on sat 26th we all organised to go and give lake 5 a crack at Celtic lakes, but unfortunatly the lake was froozen. so we all met at 10am at my mate simons house ( Carpfarther ) so we were all there and began 2 make our way to white springs fishery in ponadullaise, just be 4 we arrived we stoped at the spar to get a few things, but 1 off the boys carried on, and with in 5 minutes i gets a call saying the lakes are froozen here. so wen i got there i drove around and had a look to see if theres any thing available as we were all actious to fish, but unfortunate there was nothing, so i drove ova to the pit as it was no 1 on it and thought rite i got an idea, so drove bk up to the club house and asked vince ( the owner ) if i can take the boat down to the pit and brake all the ice, the pit fits 6 anglers so that was perfect for the 6 of us. so all 6 off us went down to the pit put the boat out and started smashing away... 4 hours later we were finally done all nackered lol, Then we all took 5 b4 we set up with a nice cold drink and a fag for some.. finally set up we could get fishing, myself took the bait boat out and fed 1 area with a little hemp then tied all new hooklinks 1 with a s inch hybrid stif with size 8 long shank, 2nd rod same again but with size 12 hook. 3rd rod 5 inch korda 20lb iq soft usin a d rig.  bait: on rod 1 was using a 14m dynamite shrimp n prawn white pop up, rod2 10m pop up, 3rd rod secret bait from john lilly 10m bottoms. so while the rods were in it was quite quiet for most off the day and as we were all avin a chat with a bottle of stella, all of the sudden u could here simon ( the carpfarther ) alarm screemin off which resulted in a nice 8lb common.. then bout half hour later we all hit the sack and at 2am while i was snuggled up my 3rd rod was screaming jump out off my sleepin bag put my boots on run to my rod and struck into a fish which didn seem that big, finally wen it was in the net and took it to the unhookin mate it was a nice little 5lb common, so i put the fish bk rebaited, casted bk out, bk in the sleepin bag as the weather conditions were terrible, then 4.20 am i was awoken again by the same rod which resulted in a 10lb common, same again rebaited, bk in the bag. then all of the sudden i woke up it was lite the time was 9am so brought all 3 rods in and changed all three rods to the 10m john lilly bottoms which resulted in my catch of the 2 commons i had. so finally casted my 3rd rod out and with in an hour my 1st rod screamed off another commen bout 5lb, so then rebaited casted out close to the island, put the bk lead on put the rod into the rest put my bobin on, walkin bk to my bivvy with in 2 minutes off being in the water the alarm scream which resulted in a 7lb mirror.  Going into the last hour i heres a alarm screaming of lookes over 1 of the other bois luke was in nice mirror bout 9lb which he had it on mainline cell tiped with fake corn, he also lost 1. good 24hrs fishing i thought for having to break the ice and every thing.. ill update u all on our nxt trip..
