New Season 2013-2014



So, the closed season has come and gone and the 16th June has signalled the start of a new season. I have renewed my season ticket for my local syndicate and have actually managed to get my hands on a night ticket for Tonbridge & District which I have been on the waiting list for the last 3 years. My main target water will be Barden which has a large head of specimen carp to 40lb and double figure bream and tench.

My tactics will not be changing much this year as I have managed to catch some good fish last year and feel that my “luck” will continue??!!?? Although I have bought some 3.5lb Wychwood rods to cope with Barden fishing as most of it will be at range and wanted to have a rod with a bit more poke.

On my local syndicate I am also going to try and target specific waters and more precise specific fish. I always walk around the lakes, even if im not fishing and talk to everyone and see what’s being caught. I have found out there is a nice mirror getting on for 28lb and that one lake is full of cat fish to 50lb. I have only ever caught one cat fish at 8lb and want to have another go at catching a bigger one.

I have set targets with my mates and its the first to catch a 30lb carp, catfish and pike. I know that the waters will hold both the carp and catfish but the pike is going some getting but that the target of 2013-2014.

Bring on the new season

Tight lines and be lucky
