You can't fish that side mate...that's Ouse Angling. I suppose you could try a 2oz lead cast over there but the water still thunders up through the stream too. Ive been told the best way to fish that area is to fish the tide on its way out or on tides lower that 5.5m

Pretty sure Hassocks still has the side opposite?

I thought I was being revolutionary using luncheon meat last time I fished there. Then again I had no idea what a hair rig might be, I preferred main line to an Arlesey bomb. Richard Walker a legend.

To be honest mate I'm happy to catch any kind/Size of fish but I do like to have the possibility of catching a 20 or a 30lb.

I may well have to give this guy a call. They have a no publicity rule for the internet I think as I cant find much info at all other than what you have given (which is very helpful, thanks)

One last question, WHat's the rules on night fishing? Is it allowed?

Cheers

Spring wood near wadhurst , report , early morning late evening spectacular action , forget 10am-7pm in this heat all sunbathing apart from some decent Tench to 5lb now and then , no Catfish for me but saw 5 come out to 39lb over the 3 days i was there , Jans reported 61lber was infact 71lb taken on a 8mm bolie meant for carp :eek:.

Some stunning grass carp in the long pool and some old girl wooden rod and center pin reel had a beauty out of 22lb on floating biscuit .

A very nice complex and accomodation nice clean and practical , will probably go again when less hot as there were some seriously huge sunbathing humpbacks cruising around the main pool .

Try and upload some pix if i can figure out how to do it from my phone .

Oil rig platform Jevs is a reference to the seat boxs the match fisherman tend to use
When all the attachments are added to a basic seat box it then resembles an ORP:)
