Bailiffs Diary: Week 3 - W/E 18/04/15

Yet another blinding week guys! The weather is really picking up now and everthings getting greener too. On the warmer days there were countless carp cruising in the surface layers, despite the fact they don’t like surface baits? However they are suckers for a Zig Rig it seems. So it’s good advice for you to bring a bit of Zig gear in case of those balmy days. Not for me though - the fish and the warmer weather mean one thing – they’re starting to respond to the bigger beds of bait.
