I thought you did have to hold a Baa card if you were fishing a match on baa waters??? Confused Our club states you must have a Baa card. Ive had a card for over 20 years now anyway.

As far as Handsacre is concerned Ive fished it 3 times now and the most ive caught is 2 perch and a roach.

Never fished it in the winter which I'm told is the best time to fish it. Not fished it this season.

You will get about 4 pegs in some of the locals fish it and there are a few pegs the depth is all on the inside it shallows up as you pass half way.

Last time I fished it a local came down with a bucket of corn hemp and meat and pre baited underneath a tree on the inside one peg above the power lines.( I was fishing the power lines) He was going to return for an evening session and told me he had been having some good chub. I asked him if any barbel came out and he said on the odd occasion.

Whoever had been fishing the cables before me had left a load of line capable of catching a shark in my opinion.
