| Hi Guys, Sorry, bit of a late report.... I fished Bury Hill last Saturday and caught a nice carp close in, near side to some pads on a popped up fruit bollie over small pellet. I lost a second fish which felt larger after It went on an unstoppable run across the lake into, through and out the other side of the larger lilys pads to my left. .It was a fairly nice day but will many amusing heavy down pores. My new fox oval umbrella bivy did its jobs nicely . I felt sorry for a few of the anglers around me without any protection as they got totally drenched! BBC weather forcast wrong again ![]() James |

| Re: Bury Hill 21st July Excellent stuff James and a nice fish. My PB is from Bury Hill and it's my local lake, I live only 2 miles away! Looks like you were on pegs 60+ there |

| Re: Bury Hill 21st July Thanks guys. It was a nice fish, quite long and lean. Shame i left my scales at home but I think it managed to get into double figures. James |

Haha, peg 61 actually God your soo lucky to live so close. I have to travel up from South coast, takes 11/2 hrs but worth it now i seem to have susted out the tactics. This was my second visit, first was a blank, well not quite, i managed a 4lb bream |

I've caught LOTS of bream there and not by design either! Well done on the fish, I find it a hard water at times. Next time you're up this way, PM me and I might be able to join you for a session. |

| Re: Bury Hill 21st July Yeah i'd say around that, maybe a little less as it was quite lean. |
