Worsborough Reservoir, Worsborough

A longish chuck with groundbait or method feeder is the way to find the better bream and carp, with maggot, corn and pellet all being good hookbaits on their day. A fishmeal mix works best here, drawing in the better fish instead of the roach which can often peck at your bait causing false bites.

Also worth a try is hemp and caster, which is taking roach to well over the 1lb mark. There is no need to fish long when doing this, as fish can often be caught at 3-6 metres. Fish a light, strung out right and feed little and often to keep fish coming all day. 30lb of roach is easily possible on here when conditions are right.
