Today went back to Foulridge res drew peg 47 was happy with peg, after a fair bit of plumbing up the best I could get was a 2 count at 75 yards which felt like it was just over a bit of a hump which was a 1 count first couple of hours had 4 bream but wasn't going mad but was getting odd liners so felt they were closer in so dropped back to inside of hump and straight away a fish so this is where I stayed, plugged away for another 13 bream and another match win mix again was the Bagums Ground Bait Super skimmer dark /Commercial carp green and the new Boillie groundbait awsome mix for bream and skimmers
