Bream showed in numbers falling to corn fished on the bottom.
Peg three saw the best of the bream action with anglers fishing short of the island banking 'hundreds' of fish.
The Specimen Lake returned to normal after the recent spawning with carp taking sweet and fruity baits from mid-water and the margins.

Catfish came to the bank in numbers throughout the week with many anglers taking their first, and for some their personal best fish from various pegs.
Luncheon meat and large halibut pellet proved successful.
Tench have continued to come to the bank mostly in the 6-8lb range.
THE season ticket water at Emperor Lakes was closed for most of the week due to heavy spawning so reported captures are limited.

At the other end of the scale, the Day Ticket water was busy, despite spasmodic spawning.
Peter Fox took an English personal best common of 27-14, a tench of 6-01 and a catfish which bottomed out his scales at 57lbs.
Adam Sloman landed a PB catfish of 46-02, and Andy Sweatland took a 37lb mirror, plus a catfish of 49-04. James Gurney had commons of 22-14 and 18-02, a catfish of 20-06 and a ghostie of 15-02.
Phil Jakes took a mirror of 31lbs, two mid-teen commons and an eel of 3-08, and Tony Kingsley landed 21lb common and three eels to 2lb+.
Brian Male had a 20-04 ghostie, Clint Miller landed a 20-04 common and James Hubble reported a common of 15-08.
