24 Hours at Wadmill Todber Manor

[Ricky lee]

Me and my day went to Wadmill on sat 8am to Sunday am to try for something different and a few more species for the hunt, i set up 2 straight ledgers to the island with red factor boilie and plastic corn, And on the other METHOD FEEDER with 3 pieces of sweet corn on the hair first few cast i caught some small silver bream pics below not sure the difference between skimmer and silver please tell me if im wrong



They started to get a little bigger had about 7 this size in a row pic below



Then the bigger common bream moved in had 8 all around 4-5lb mark pic below



Didnt have no runs on the carp rod till about 3PM when i landed a small 4-5lb Mirror carp, My dad at this stage caught nothing,
Then i started to catch some fish that i didnt know what they are so i text my bro he said they were F1 carp, And when the bailiff came round i showed him the pic he said yes they were F1 carp i had over 20 of these between 2lb and 4lb pic below of one



My dad landed his first common carp around 5lb and then one about 6lb, I then had a run on the METHOD FEEDER that wasnt a bream or an f1 carp after a good scrap and pulling me around the island then into the reeds in the margin i seen it top a mirror about low doubles, But i had a problem my landing net was the other side of the tree after calling my dad he started to come over when it went straight into the reed in the margin again and snap snapped my 5lb hook link, After speaking to my dad for about 10 mins my dad had a screaming run after a 4min scrap my dad saying doesn't feel like a bream or an f1 more like a carp, After i slid the landing net under it still not knowing what he had till i started lifting it out my dad said is it a common carp i said know its a pike, he caught it on snowman rig with rad factor and small white pop up, the pike was only a small 5-6lb but the first pike for my dad pic below



Went on to catch 1 more common carp about 4lb nothing in the night for me my dad landed 2 carp in the night about 5-6lb, in the morning i set up method feeder again and started catching silver bream again and 1 peach about 1/2lb and loads of f1 carp, it was nice to catch some different fish
