24th September – 1st October 2011

4 lads from Surrey this week – 2 regular, and two friends new to the lake.

Weather got even hotter throughout the week, and the carp stayed in the Med with plenty basking and sunbathing, and not bothering to eat a lot – mostly feeding during the night. Consequently, one angler caught most of the carp and 1 lad unfortunately blanked – sorry Phil, but they will be back next year cos they know they have the chance of a “big one”.

12 carp caught totalling 428lbs, with an average weight of 36lb.

8th – 15th October 2011

5 of our regular anglers from Leicester and 1 regular from Liverpool joined us on our last week of the Season, and it proved to be another excessively hard week for our guys, even though it cooled down at nights, it still got to an amazing 30+ degrees during the day.

Still a good few lumps though produced at intervals between periods of nothing. The last night prevented two of our guys from blanking. This has been an exceptionally tough year altogether with the unending drought and high temperatures – more on that in my end of year report soon.

13 carp caught totalling 484.4lbs, with an average weight of 37.24lb.
