Pole Fishing Plus  |  Issue 5
In Issue Five of Pole Fishing Plus, we join five-time world champion and England international Alan Scotthorne on the banks of Barston Lake, for an unmissable lesson in catching stillwater silver fish!
Alan covers a whole array of topics in meticulous detail; you see exactly what groundbait mix he uses, and learn precisely how to mix it. He also gives you an insight into using leam – an additive that he often uses in groundbait, and one which has brought him a great deal of success over the years on the world stage.
You can expect to learn about different feeding strategies, as our master explains how to draw fish into the swim initially, before refeeding and topping up the swim with bait to ensure you keep catching throughout the session.
Expect to have your watercraft skills enhanced, as Alan trains you to think like a fish, and understand exactly what is happening under the surface!
Two sections of the video and magazine are devoted to rigs and presentation. Alan shows you exactly what and why he uses certain rig components, before explaining how and why to present your rig in numerous ways for different species of fish.
If you’re looking to learn about bloodworm and joker, the basics of preparation are covered, as well as how best to store the bait, and of course how to feed it and use it on the hook.
In conjunction with the main feature is another tip-packed diary piece from England star Lee Kerry. This month, Lee explains how he practises his angling skills, and talks in depth about the importance of preparation and panning within fishing, to make sure you get the very best out of every session!
