Back in the UK

Hi everyone, sorry there has not been a report for a while, but I have been away in France on holiday with the family.
My dad has been looking after things and keeping a record of all the fish that have been reported to him, he also managed to get a few snap shots of some nice fish as he walked around and a couple of guys have emailed some pic's from their sessions on Mustang, which I really appreciate - thanks.
When I left for France things were picking up well and in the last week (7 days) we have had 10 different twenties landed and a stack of good doubles. The best hit was made by Danny Castleton, who banked mirrors of 13lb and 20lb along with commons weighing 21lb, 23lb and 25lb 8oz. He fished in swim two and used his spod to good effect - nice work mate, another good session for you.
Another guy who fished in peg 13 banked a brace of twenties on his first trip. Yesterday a chap fishing a day session, I think it was Mal Morrell, banked a 24lb mirror on his first trip to the venue. Other anglers have done well in pegs 1,3,4,5,6. Peg 14 is still worth ago I just walked round and counted over 20 fish in that bay.
I'm not sure what has been working best, but I think the usual baits are accounting for most bites. But I think baiting regularly is a good tactic to keep the bites coming.
I haven't got loads of photo's becausue of my holiday, but I hope you like the pic's.
