Welcome to episode 21, it’s another whopper to help you get through lockdown. It’s 3 hours long and this months special guest is Simon Bartlam, the main man over at Dinton Pastures Country Park, one of the best carp fisheries in the country. Having spent 30 years managing the fishery it was great to discuss the history of the place and get an understanding of Si’s excellent fishery management vision. On top of that me and Mark discus a carps natural diet of shrimps, snails and all things larvae related. Our topic of the month this time around is pre baiting, the benefits of it, how much we use, importantly the frequency and application.
