Hi Bronwee

I don't know whwere Orchid Lakes is
But generally when looking for suitable pegs you need to look for areas where there are features that fish like

Overhanging bushes
lots of reeds or lily pads (OK they aren't there now but later)
on a lake an area where it never freezes or a water feed where there's more oxygen

HTH

thanks for that ill try to look out for those

just went to orchid lakes club lake today and didn't catch a thing along with numerous other anglers
baits: lob worms, bread, boilies and lucheon meat
method: bolt rig, running ledger and hair rig.

i think i may have had a bite but the fish must of just played with the bait.
at 1 degrees i think it was two cold.

coming to think of it i did catch something....... A COLD!!

but i would still like to have any tips on fishing that lake as i defenitly will be going back there when its warmer.
