Upper Tamar bailiff Roger Maher has been doing well at the venue after finding some fish in a quiet area of the lake. Short sessions and a little pre baiting has worked really well for Roger and the results speak for themselves. He has managed lots of fish in the last couple of weeks but has picked out these as some of his favorites. The majority of fish have been doubles with the largest common being 19.12 and mirror 16.08.

ANOTHER LADY ANGLER HOOKED!!
Well done to Amy Wetherill who shared with us her Biggest Fish to date from the Magic Lake! It was great to see Amy at the Rig Clinic too, picking up some tips and advice for her future fishing!
TAKE NOTE BOYS AND GIRLS!
Amy Said –
“Whilst attending Anglers Paradise I caught my new personal best!
It may not seem much, but to me I was over the moon and still am!
This lovely beauty, which I have named Beastie, was caught from the Magic Lake off of the surface using a chopped down pop-up.
I love fishing this lake, watching the fish feed and getting excited waiting for the all important bite!
Beastie gave one hell of a fight and had my arm burning for over 10 minutes! This made the netting of him much more magical as the name of this lake implies!
This is the biggest fish I have caught so thank you to Anglers Paradise!
Let’s see if I can beat this new pb next year…..”
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AMY!
THE 1ST WINNER FOR FISH OF THE WEEK 2017 IS…
Craig Fisher who smashed his Personal Best with a 46lb 2oz Mirror from the Kracking Carp Lake!!
Craig’s Story –
“I decided to give the Kracking a go, hoping to catch one of the big carp and land a personal best! After seeing fish around the island, I decided to move up the other end of the lake. I cast out a foot from the island and just 15 minutes later it went off!
I couldn’t believe my luck – a whopping new personal best! A great start to a fantastic week. I celebrated well in the Bar after the Wine and Dine Night that’s for sure and even won the raffle twice!! A fishing moment I will never forget!”
Craig used a snowman rig with triple-n boilie topped with milky toffee pop-up.
Craig’s luck didn’t stop there either! He also caught a Personal Best Catfish from the Specimen Cat Lake 37lbs 12oz!! Caught on a halibut boilie topped with pink stink pop-up.
WELL DONE CRAIG!! GREAT 1ST FISH OF THE WEEK FOR 2017!!

The carp catches just keep on coming from Stafford Moor with Lodge Lake producing some stunning hauls of carp. A reminder to all who fish at the Moor it is a barb-less hook only venue. Fishery’s have every right to set rules that protect the valuable fish that swim within their waters. Fish care has progressed hugely in recent decades with unhooking mats and anti septic lotions now mandatory on most venues. A far cry from the days when the more caring anglers used old cushions etc to unhook fish. It would be great if one of the carp anglers out there could write a short article on fish care for this site?
