Angling: Watch me go!


I POPPED down to Meadow-lands Fishery at Ryton last week and fished the Warren Pool for the first time for a meat feature for Total Coarse Fishing Coarse fishing is an angling method, mostly popular throughout the United Kingdom and mainland Europe.

The main target species for this type of angling include:
  • Carp: Wild Carp / King Carp / Common Carp / Crucian Carp
  • Pike (Esox lucius)
  • Zander
. Fishery manager Chris Haile put me on peg 25 on and although I was surprised how shallow it was at only about three feet, I enjoyed a great session on the pole, bagging around 35lb in a couple of hours.

The bag was mainly bream bream: see sunfish.

 too. I did get two carp to 9lb as well, fishing Princes meat at first but later using a meat based paste. For my feature I wasn't allowed to use pellets but I'd say for the bream and skimmers expanders are definitely the way to go.
