AQUA VIA

[Perdeby]

When last was someone at Aqua Via. I am going there this weekend and wondered if there is anything I should know.

Any info on baits, distance, etc. would be appreciated.

 

[mangoboi]

just run a search on Aqua Via

Theres loads of fishing reports, or just go look under fishing reports

Loads of guys have posted on the place including baits etc...



good luck, let us know how it goes.

Thanx. It helped a lot.

I got some brommers from the owner and it worked like a dream.

Me and my son (10y old) landed 4 carps and 2 muddies on them.

I then made my own with caramel and floro and landed 2 more carps.

All the fish were between 1 and three kg with the biggest being 2.95kg.

I'll visit the place again in the somer.

What are brommers..?

 

[louieb]

Hi Mark,

Brommers are small competition floaties soaked in a strong flavour, like garlic, then rolled in flouro and left to dry out.

 

What you are left with is a floatie that has a stong flavour, and "bleeds" into the water, giving off a strong scent and "cloud".

Guys, here is a report by Protea angler, Eddie sheppard on his website on Aqua Via. He is concentrating on LTB for now, but sometimes go back to conventional bank angling.
