After having had a cracking session at Anchor Meadow on the Warwickshire Avon late last year when he landed a personal best barbel of 13lbs 2oz, Bedworth tackle shop owner Paul Nixon was back again at the beginning of July and went on to take a total of 20 chub to 6lb 2oz and 12 barbel around the 6lb mark - the best being 8lb 9oz. He is pictured with Anchor Meadow owner Margaret Fisher. |
Derbyshire's Birch House Lakes has opened a new 30-plus peg mixed fish water, The Dove, which can be found to the left of Horseshoe Lake. Cars can be parked on the roadway near the lake. With depths varying between two and five feet, it has been stocked with mirrors, commons, bream, skimmers, roach and rudd. One of the main features of the water is a penninsula which runs out into the lake. Because it has not been fished by many anglers - probably because they don't know it exists - it is not known which techniques or baits work best. |
