Swim 5
Your best tactics/bait/rigs: Fished peg 5, small amounts of crushed boilie with pellet and parti blend, vitalin and sweetcorn. Fished at about 120 – 130 yards around the old riverbed in about 3 1/2 ft water. Very cold for the first 3 or 4 days. When it warmed up the fish started to feed from around 4 pm onwards. Only caught from Wednesday on.
Were the facilities what you expected? Yes, great warm shower with a gas fire in the cabin. Lovely!!
Were you happy with them? Perfect!!
