Bailiff's Diary: July 2010
w/e 24th July
Well another good week fishing,
and weather-wise, a bit cooler this trip with highs of
just 31 degrees and 12 – 14 at nights mainly sunny,
and a bit of rain towards the end of the session. You still
need those mossie sprays lads, I’ve done a bit of
research and the best and longer lasting repellants are
those that contain the most ‘DEET’ I’ve
just got some the 95 per cent DEET off the internet (just
Goggle Mosquito repellants) and make your own mind up!!
A good amount of quality
fish came out this week, as ever bags and sticks doing
the bizz accurate baiting and ‘clipping-up’.
Another great bunch of lads, most of them had P.B’s
as well, with a total of 9 x 50’s.

Gary Rand 49lb Mirror DL1 |
 |
I’ll start as usual
over on Lake 1, where
this weeks “Top Bombin” award
goes to <<< Gary Rand
>>> with
his haul of 41 fish including 3 x 40’s a 40lb
Common and 2 x 40lb Mirrors of 45lbs and 49lbs.
Gary used 20kg of the Cell to take his catch.
Gary
went
on to say on his catch report form “I’ve
been to the Dreamlakes 3 times now, and enjoyed myself
each time, the fishing has been very good, beat my
P.B twice this week, the food and bailiffs have been
excellent, no complaints, each time I’ve always
fished Lake 1 and each time I’ve had great
results, will be back soon!!
Jason
Rust >>> on the “Beach” had
a 29 fish catch, J’s best a 43lb-4oz common
taken on his Vision baits. |
| |
Also
on a 29 fish haul was Tim Wilmot
>>> in the “Unknown”,
Tim had a 40lb mirror and is best this trip was a
50lb common on the Cell and New Grange.
Tim kindly
misunderstood the catch report form and where it
says total catch he's gone to all the trouble of
adding up all the fish weights and Tim’s total
for the week was 687lbs of fish.
|
 |

Tim Wilmot 50lb Common DL1 |
| |
|
|

Rob Wilmot 43lb Common DL1 |
 |
Tim’s
brother Rob did the same thing as well (you're not
the 1st, nor the last I think guys, thanks all the
same!!)
Well
<<< Rob Wilmot >>> next
door in the “Lodge” took
a 23 fish catch, with a total
weight of 659lbs Rob’s
best being 2 x 40’s both commons of 40lbs and
43lbs. Again as brother Tim they both used 17 and
half kilos of the Cell and New Grange.
I’ve
just done a quick sum on my phones calculator, think
I
have done it right, 659 divided by 23 = 28.65lbs
as the average weight of Rob’s catch. Well
we learn something new everyday!!
Andy
Allen in the “Chimneys” and
then the “Deer Dip” took 9 fish for the
week on his Scopex Squid 5kg in total.
Adam
Conway >>> in
the “Snags” had
just 7 out, the best however being a rather large
common of 55lbs-8ozs, Adam used 10kgs of the Cell
for the trip. |
| |
|
|
Brian
Conway next door in the “Kingfishers” took
a 9 fish catch again on 10kgs of the Cell.
Darren
Dingley “Cherries
/ Gables” took
I believe a 9 fish catch on his home-made Maple-Ade
boilies, and others of Shrimp and Garlic 3kg in total.
Steve
Bishop >>> fished the “Slope” then
moved into the opposite arm in “Herbies Hole” to
take a 12 fish catch, Steve’s best a 47lb – 4oz
common taken on 10kg of the Cell. |
 |

Steve Bishop 47.4lb Common DL1 |
Ben
Bartoff “Sunset” took unlucky
13 which included 2 x 40’s but sadly Ben’s
omitted to write down their weights. I do know however
that his bait was the Tigernut D.L. Specials just
5kgs!!
Adam Hamblin “Bailiffs” took
a 15 fish catch on 20kg of the Cell, no monsters sadly!!

We had very warm days and
nights, with the odd severe storm (15mins) and unsettled

w/e 8th July
Weather eased up this week,
highs of just 36 degrees, night time temps down to around
12-16 degrees a bit more bearable for sleeping!!!

the old “Zigs” have been doing well during
the days, pulling out some bonus fish, bottom baits through
the night solid P.V.A bags and sticks producing most fish.
Good bunch of lads, we had a good laugh with plenty of
ice cold beers, helped the lads have a really good week!!!

Bailiff's
Diary: July 2010
w/e 2nd July
Wow!! Wot a scorcher!! This
week saw in summer proper, I can tell you it was really
really hot 37-40 degrees makes it almost unbearable then
to top it off, night time temps of 19-21 degrees make it
difficult to sleep, lots of lads just kipping on the grass.
Two things to remember sun tan cream and for these long
hot nights anti-mossie spray as well guys!!
Due to the excessive heat,
most fish were caught at night, the fishing being somewhat
sporadic due to the heat, and lack of a breeze, most fish
fell to bottom baits, although zigs did produce a few during
the daylight hours, small light beds of bait are recommended
with of course the crumbled boilies in the sticks and bags.
P.S. Mossie repellant is
a must!! I am told.
Now for the football!! Can’t
believe the Germans beat the Argies so easily, mind you
it was good to see that fat prat Maradonna's face at the
final whistle, shame they couldn’t both lose though.
Now all the African teams are out, perhaps we’ll
hear less of those stupid bleedin trumpets, we predict
a Holland-German final, come on you “Oranje” they
hate the Germans, more than we do since they were occupied
during the war (which we won by the way.) This time next
week it will all be over.
Can’t believe they
kept Cappello!!!
Right back to the important
stuff lads, the catch reports, I’ll start as ever
on Lake 1.
