The next venue we have booked in to fish is Pendle View Fishery in Barrow just outside Clitheroe. Me and Ryan have been up today and had a good walk about and have settled for pegs 87/88 which is a double peg in the corner of the Specimen Lake. We have read and heard mixed reports about the place but these mean nothing to us as we are after the fish and will make our own judgement of the venue once we have fished it.
The staff there where very friendly and the place was very busy today so we have opted to fish it mid week at the end of August for 48 hours. Food is available to order up until 8.30pm and can be dropped off at your peg for you. Toilets and shower facilities are also available. We are really looking forward to fishing this place and I hope Ryan gets his UK 20 pounder that he has been chasing for over a decade. I have set my sights on something a little different which goes by the name of Tango. When it was last caught it weighed around 17lb and it would make my trip if I got it on my unhooking mat.
I think we are going to hit this place with natural baits including corn, mussels, hemp and prawn. Wish us luck and hopefully in the results post we will be smiling holding some very nice fish.

Best of luck to you.
ReplyDeleteYou have to love an area where the fish are the celebrities and have their own nicknames.
When you arrive you have to chuck £1 into a pot and if you catch a fish called "Chocolate Orange" (its top half is brown and bottom half is orange) you win the pot. It is currently up to £77. Pulling that out would be nice haha. Thanks for the comments guys.
