I took the dog for a walk round Shakerley Mere here in Cheshire last Wednesday, the Carp were at it big time, it is a shallow silty mere so no surprise it heated up quickly really.
I noted signs for a match 2 days later (Carp charity match I assume) so I popped a e-mail off to Lymm Anglers to let them know in case it might be of interest.....didn't
get a reply

I had a walk through Victoria Park this morning and saw plenty of carp cruising around. Was a warm morning but they looked pretty chilled, not sure if they have had a go already or not to be honest.

I’ve seen canal carp spawning once on a stretch literally in the centre of Coventry .
I used to walk along the cut to work every day and it was gin clear as it didn’t see many boats .
I never saw a sign of a carp or even a fish in a whole year . Then one day walking home I saw them .
I was mind blown to be honest as there were some fish pushing 30 lb if not above it and also several ghosties and other koi that had obviously been tipped in from a garden pond etc .
Great way to see what fish are in your water.

Spawning time must make canal carp fishing even more tricky. If they are all grouping up in one section you could be miles away from every fish in the area! Can’t say I’ve ever seen canal carp spawning.
I have seen Bream, they don’t mind anyone watching them splurt their jizz everywhere right next to the bank. It’s a fairly lazy affair as to be expected.
