For the love of Crucian Carp

The School of Fish - Crucian Carp

Looking back through my May photos, I think the March weather saying, “in like a lion, out like a lamb” would be spot on. May started with temperatures still low with wet and windy weather. Typing now at the end of the month, it’s hot!

A fish of a lifetime

The School of Fish - Natalie and Callun making memories

It’s April and the fishing lesson fun has begun! The long daylight hours and the increasing (slightly) temperatures have got the fish on the move and on the feed and everything just feels a bit easier.

Jake, a natural Angler

Jake fishing for Bream with The School Of Fish

I was joined this afternoon by Jake and his Mum Emma.  It was Jake’s first coarse fishing experience but he’d been boat fishing a few times.  He soon settled into the rythm of lake fishing and remarked how calm and peaceful it was.  Calm and peaceful until he started catching loads of fish!  Using both a short pole and a rod and reeling with running line, Jake caught a mixture of Roach, Rudd, Perch and Bream.  We worked on his casting technique and following some simple steps he was soon casting miles!  Jake used a variety of baits including maggots, sweetcorn, meat and pellets and caught using every bait.  I look forward to welcoming you again soon Jake.
