Ouch

You won't see me running around the fishery too much at the moment as I spent yesterday evening in A and E after I fell out of a tree when a branch snapped. Luckily I have not broken my foot, but I have ripped a ligament which is pretty bloody painful.
Anyway the action on Mustang has been more patchy in the last couple of days, but things look like they have picked up again. the best two fish out I know about are a 20lb 2oz common and a 25lb mirror which I'm waiting to get a pic of. Also one of the lakes prettiest carp came out, which is now known as 'Jimbo' at 18lb 8oz, alovely scaley mirror.
Peg1 - 3 still have a lot of carp in-front of them but fish are starting to move in front of 5 and 6 along with 10, 12 and 13.
The best tactics of late have been small PVA bags or pellet and chopped boilie. I have seen a few guys getting a bit excited with the spod rod, but I think extra bait is only needed when they are clearly ripping it up in front of you.
