Luccombe Ponds: Ash Pond Re-Stocking
The first re-stocking of Ash pond took place this week with the introduction of 250lb of carp. The fish, ranging in size from 2lb-3lb, were carefully released into the pond which will be both for pleasure and match anglers.
The Luccombe and Take the Bait, Dawlish midweek series was won by Dawlish's Ron Entwhistle. He was pegged on Birch where he used pole-fished maggots to catch 10lb of skimmer and a 4lb 8oz carp for a 14lb 8oz total.
Legered boilies have accounted for some carp scaling between 8lb and 11lb from Ash pond.
As the days are pretty spring-like, a lot of insects are hatching out and dry fly or suspender patterns could do the trick in the coming days.
The next match is on Sunday so book now.
