Harescombe Fishery, Stroud 04-06-12

Went up to Stroud to try out
my son, Andrew's, local fishery.
A 4 lake fishery,
1 x Match lake
and
3 x mixed fish lakes.
We fished the north bank
of the largest lake.
Fished from
08.00 till 16.00.
Andrew has this lake wrapped round his fingers,
and from the off caught steadily.
Carp all the way, up to 12lb.
I struggled but still managed
a hand full of Carp and a Bream.
My first fish, about 7lb 4oz
was caught on a waggler rod 
and Centre Pin Reel.
My first carp caught with a
centre pin reel.
The fishery is tucked 
away in a very secluded area.
Nice and quiet compared to most
venues around Bristol.
Happy chappy Andrew.
with a near double Mirror Carp
caught on Tuttie Fruttie sweet corn.
My
2lb 6oz Bream
caught on the pole
to chocolate pellet.
Still Andrew caught, mostly
on the feeder under a Willow tree 
on the far bank.
We were told by the owner
the fishery was fishing quite poorly
because of the recent
bad weather.
What's it like on a good day!!!!!!!!!!!!
