Live Match Fishing: Tunnel Barn Farm, Open Match, Extension Pool 

Thanks John!

Thanks Caius

Love a good mutter!

Yes 100% right! Thankfully the fish don't seem to mind :-)

Ha ha. Can you come to all my matches?

Haha yes mate if I learn more for my own fishing 😁

Yes its just somewhere to drop my landing net. Not sure it’s quite how I want it yet.

I have two!

Thanks Gordon!

Gordon. Jon has done one at white acres, have a search for it. Another good video. Tight lines Gordon.

She was sleeping!

One's a prototype and one's a B911

Lots of F1s are caught this close in on a lot of venues I know. Yep still using my old pole at the mo. Soon be getting a much better one in the shape of the MTX4 though. Cannot wait!!

Jon Arthur Angling Hi Jon thank you for the answer a lot don’t bother. Now if the new pole is a lot better than the old one, then it must be superb! The old model was top of the tree, if not the strongest so I will be watching your future video’s with great interest to see the pole in action. For beginners I still recommend the beginners pole you tested on Alders Farm after several years. Guess my old Daiwa is long overdue for replacement! After 20 years service! Look forward to the next video regards Bill

Absolutely!

All the pools fish similar, so take your pick. I quite like House and Club

Think it was back then yes, but wouldI've probably been on Slik if it was now.

I fished casters as they're my favourite bait for shallow fishing and I've got a good record with them on that pool, even coming an agonising 2nd on a Fishomania qualifier this year fishing that way! Pellets down the side are a better bet as they are more selective and won't attract the little fish so easily, but maggots in the last hour is often good as thats when the better fish tend to arrive down the edge and start to bully the nuisance little perch away!

I see but why not just stick with pellets down the edge in the last hour?

Because I like to gamble and take calculated risks in smaller matches. Sometimes it pays off handsomely and in my experience you can sometimes ramp up a weight fishing groundbait and maggot in the last hour.

Well its always good to try different things and i know i have caught really well over groundbait in the margins. Do you target the margins much during the winter when its really cold?

Yes at venues like Tunnel Barn most definitely
