Devils Dung & Cheese (Keeping It In The Family)

My nephews Lance & Owen Heal have been fishing Olivemead Lake. Olivemead is fairly small in size but the fish know the score and when it comes to bait and tactics, it can be very tricky to nab a bite at the best of times. My nephews tell me that when they see anglers vacate their swims and other anglers move in behind them, everybody seems to do the same thing and fish the same spots and catch next to nothing for their efforts. Therefore a change of approach was called for and the boys asked me what flavour pop up I would recommend and I suggested the Devils Dung & Cheese or the Cream Specials. I suggested these two choices as they are a bit different to the norm. Lance was the first to take the plunge with the Devils Dung and it wasn’t long before he banked a new PB in the shape of a 29lbs 08oz Common. Following on from his earlier success, the very next day a 22lbs 13oz Common slid in the nett using the very same tactics.
Of course - Owen wasn’t slow off the mark (he wanted some of that) and it wasn’t long before a 13mm, White DD & Cheese was on the rig and few hours later a pristine 27lbs Mirror (and new PB) was being held-up for the camera. Here’s what Owen had to say about the event:

I wasn’t going to fish the island as it’s a bit of an obvious spot for other anglers but, as Dad was packing up I seen one bosh out twice by the red buoy (our boundary to the next swims water) so I thought, that’s a sign and with Lance having one off the island a few days earlier on the Devils Dung I thought - just a single about 3 foot off the buoy will do and a few hours later off it went

Nice result Boys - You will have to show your Old man how to do it .
