REVIEW AT DUNHAM FISHERY
By Jake Fowles
  
 
Just my luck! I get to do my first review and it’s the hottest day of the year so far. I’ve got my excuses all laid out....I can go and fish! After a quick conversation with Karen the fishery owner, it came about that the fish hadn’t really been moving, and the best chance would be to fish tight up against some bulrushes. I was hoping that the new aerator they had installed would help me get amongst them. 
This wasn’t looking good ...... an hour intofishing at 14m and not so much as a bite. I’dpurposely waited until late afternoon before fishing in hope that the temperature would drop, but instead it seems to be getting hotter! Even the Rudd near the surface wouldn’t take my bait! 
 Finally, I managed to entice a few of those good old reliable skimmers into the swim. Although it wasn’t prolific, I was getting a steady stream of fish and as the temperature dropped, the fish got bigger.
Now things were looking up, I continued to drizzle micro pellets into the swim whilst fishingVan Den Eyde RS pellets on the hook.This seemed to do the trick and the Tench and Crucian’s started to take interest.
 Sure enough the persistence paid off, and the Carp finally moved in. This could turn out to be a half decent bag of fish after all! I was beginning to really enjoy myself and I was catching fish at will on both the near and far bank. They certainly liked the soft pellet.

After a slow start, fishing at Dunham turned out to be great fun. I think what I enjoyed most was the variety of fish and I never knew what was coming out next, but unfortunately I never got into any barbel and chub.

Karen Bushell was a great help, if you fancy a
