STILLWATERS COLEMAN’S COTTAGE, WITHAM, ESSEX

The vast numbers of F1s and carp have been keeping anglers warm during cold winter matches. Try fishing Pathfield Lake, which produced nets of over 50lb last week. Successful tactics include fishing the pole at around 14m, carefully feeding either maggots or micro pellets. A feeder to the island could also work. Hot pegs this time of year include 8C, 16, 17, 32 and 33. Contact: 01376 516383 Postcode: CM8 3EX
