hi just wondering if anyone has ever fished, holwell hyde or fairlands i no that holwell hyde is an easy lake and that fairlands is a very hard lake with only about 6-7 carp in it but would like some info on any of these IE methods, baits, swims . thanx all info much apreciated

Holwell is an easy water m8, a good tactic ova there is a pva bag of pellet and a boilie on the hook, or and i kno this works try a method feeder works good, and also dont forget the middle of the lake every one casts to the islands and stuff it works but it is good to try the middle of the lake and the close margins are very productive, GoodLuck, on ya travels m8y, and also where u live?

I think you've been missinformed on Fairlands. It is fairly low stocked but has a lot more fish than you think. It has a reputation as a dodgy water - i.e. don't do nights alone !

thanks kind of figured that as u see every fortnight in the paper rapists and murders but police do patrol the lake and as long as everyone in thweir bivvy their fine bout it by the why i live about 1 mile away from holwell hyde mate thanks a bunch for the info

holwell hyde is a horrible water. more damaged fish than anywhere else ive fished, that said it is a learning water for kids

Well said rotofryer, ill hav to agree with u there, i kno im a kid myself 15, but i hav respect, but most of the ppl that fish there, are , u get the picture, casting ova me line etc etc, but its ok for the starter angler as there are lots of kids there, if i fish there its usually in the winter coz its too cold for the kid's. & by the way young carp this is where i posted bout holwell, OK.
