Furnace Mill Fishery

The Sunday Open was a little quieter this week at Furnace Mill Fishery with a couple of the regulars on holiday - I meant because of the numbers not the noise level............ or did I? 18 anglers took part and in first place was Kev Johnson, Mark's Tackle, with 109 lb 3 oz from peg 8 on Furnace Pool. Duncan Newton, Redditch, came 2nd from peg 62 on Willow Pool with 98 lb 11 oz which included nearly 15 lb of roach. 3rd place went to Paul Cook, Mark's Tackle, with 97 lb 14 oz of carp from peg 5.

Furnace Pool (pegs 1 to 30) and Willow Pool (pegs 55 to 74)

Pleasure anglers have reported excellent catches of carp but also quality roach coming from all the pools with lots of PB's being caught. Red 4 or 6 mm feed pellet seems to have the edge with red hookers, corn and maggot going well on the hook.
