Harris Lake surprise.

Mark Thompson had a bit of shock whilst fishing for the big tench and crucians when he hooked into a zoo creature! There are a handful of carp in the lake that came through when they were originally filled direct from Johnsons but we have been removing them as & when they occasionally appear. This one has obviously evaded capture until now and has packed on the weight providing Mark with an interesting fight and a new Harris Lake record. Congratulations Mark
This carp was immediately placed in Johnsons Lake

Ryan bags one of our monsters!
Junior Ryan landed a 4lbs Crucian from Richardson Lake this Sunday morning (28th March 2010) in spite of losing an hour in bed due to the clocks changing! Congratulations Ryan on joining the small but growing membership of T4CC - The 4lb Crucian Club.

Record perch landed from Hill Pond.

Ross Howe who has braved the dreadful weather whenever the ponds were unfrozen has been rewarded with a new PB and Pond record perch weighing in at exactly 3lbs.
There are two chunky perch in Hill Pond both around the same weight that always show up when we net it, so the other one might be the slightly larger one!
Congrats to Ross and we hope you land the other one too.
   

PS
The other large Hill Pond Perch weighing in at 3lbs 2oz was caught two weeks earlier by Frankie Bevan

Big perch starting to show in Harris Lake
 
Having stocked Harris with a number of reasonable perch with the potential to grow on well it appears that they are now beginning to show having packed on the weight. This is Dave Johnson with a 3lb specimen. The chub there are also putting in regular appearances around the same weight as the perch

At last the big Crucians are putting in regular appearances with 3 different 4lb specimens reported in the last 5 days. We are very hopeful that at least a new Club record will be taken this spring if not a national record. There is also the chance of the new record coming from Johnsons which is open until the end of this month to members only.

Harris Lake, Marsh Farm : (13-03-09)
On the same day that the Roach were released into the Wey, we introduced 25 prime Chub into Harris Lake at Marsh Farm. These immaculate fish, averaging 2lb apiece, have been introduced to boost the cold weather fishing, also providing limited predation and control of the annual fry explosion.
 
My thanks to Clive Larke for assisting Alan Millington and I on both of the stocking operations.
Mike Holcombe.
