Tees Valley Lakes, Urlay Nook Road, 20th April 2013

The weather this week had started to improve so I decided to stay local and have another visit to Tees Valley Lakes near Yarm. The previous session at this venue threw up some great roach and I wanted to bag some more of these silver beauties and hopefully some of the venues carp too. I arrived at the fishery at 7:30am after cleaning the frost off the car, hoping that a cold overnight snap wouldn't affect the fishing too badly. I was the only angler fishing so I had the choice of pegs, so decided to fish peg 7 which gave me the point of the island and also open water. Before I arrived at the venue I decided not to take any rods so it would be a pole only day. The Set-Up 3 pole lines all at 13-14 metres: To the point of the island by the reeds To the left side of my swim, again to the reed Open water to the right of the island I had heard that chopped worm was working well so I took some casters, red/white maggots and worms.
