My name is Toby Guest I live in Lyme Regis. This is a blog I have set up so that those interested in fishing in dorset can follow me to get a better picture on local fishing in dorset or devon and to find out how or what I have been catching. More and more I have been recorded and reporting my fishing so this is a space where I can explain and publish what I have done.

5 days at the famous Horseshoe lakes in the cotswold's
Right, 27th of December and I did the long trip to Horseshoe lakes in the Cotswold. I stuck it out for 5 days using different baits to find the carp. I fished through every weather condition possible but managed to find 3 Carp. My main approach was to fish in a clear spot in the weed using snowman rigs and pop ups over a spodded area. Here we go...
My first fish taken on the second night, on the clear spot. Taken on the snowman rig
Fish number two taken at around 8 in the morning of the second day, same rod, same spot, same bait. A bigger fish this time, hit the scales at 18+
It then wasn't until the last night that managed another one. This time off the same spot but off a chod rig just slightly in the weed, only around 15lb but a lovely fully scaled fish!
Check the video for a lot more, in depth tactics and footage of the fish....
