Fishing

[mgillett88]

Hi all. This Friday will be heading to he broads for a 10 break. Will be venturing on the south broads for a few days first off, but always struggled to find places to fish there, any suggestions?

As for the north, any gd Bream and Perch areas?

We are generally after break, but have caught Perch on maggot before in Stalham. We do spin every now and again, especially at Wroxham but not hugely successful.

 

Cheers

A warm to the NBN mgillett88 from me and the Wench (some call her Inge). I have done quite well in Rockland Broad.

well then - setting out to not catch it must be the answer.

To be fair last year was poor, hardly caught anything lol. Hopefully this year is slightly better.

Bbc2 at 10pm. 

Be interesting to see where they fish. Expect it might be a lake though. 

Thanks for the tip off.

Good bream spots on the Waveney

The mill/pump inlets on the east bank immediately downstream of Oulton Dyke

Oulton Dyke itself around Horseshoe Bend

Almost anywhere between Beccles and Geldeston but especially around the fork in the river at the Geldeston end. 

Lay a carpet of ground bait, stiff mix of plain brown crumb and molasses mixed with bronze maggot taking note of the direction of the tide, if possible two to three hours before starting to fish. Twenty to thirty golf size balls evenly distributed. Use a method feeder with the same bait and sweetcorn soaked in molasses syrup to the hook, or 3-4 dead red maggots. Hook no bigger than size 12

if you want to use pellets go for oily fish meal like halibuts

this stuff makes an excellent groundbait base for bream. add molasses to sweeten and/or a little hemp.
