Yea I've just joined salford friendly anglers free aswel gotta b worth it, have u fished this island pond I've fished all the others never even seen that one thou. Yup I fish the marina only for bream and tench though anywhere round this island 3quarters of the way across for nice bream I've had them to 11lb 4oz I've had tench to 7 although my dad had a 10lb tench few years ago carp go to 40 odd pound too. The only prob is the carpers there uncooperative n think they own the place so if your after carp I wouldn't waste my time asking them. Its available on a day ticket or a season ticket well worth the money.

Yea the tench fishings just as good on the marina , if you like tench fishing I'd recommend black leach in walkden there all big in there the method over bed of bait works well or just standard feeder, yea am gonna try drinkies asap firstly am breaking the ice on the dam today.

The marina is still excellent for tench an nobody fishes it, also I'd recommend black leach in walkden the tench are all of a good stamp 5lb upwards fish the method over a bed of bait or just standard feeder over a bed of bait
