Bait Used: Peach & Sour Cream Boilies, Lump Liquid and Peach &Sour Cream Wafters
Rig of Choice: Slip D
Weight of Fish: 20lb 12oz
Venue: Gloucester Park, Basildon
24 hours on a park lake that I haven’t done a night on for over 6 years…I had to go back for a Gloucester Park 20lber. I Catapulted a spread of Peach & Sour Cream boilies (1.5 Kg) over 2 rods at about 2 rod lengths off the island (6ft deep) on a silty spot that I knew had produced bites in recent months. Little and often top ups throughout the afternoon and into the evening, minimal shows but fish were seen in the area. 12:40 am the Fox Micron SX screamed, bobbin slammed into the blank and then the line slackened and the bobbin hit the deck. Lifted into air, it was coming towards me, wound down, connected with a bulldog of a common that burst into action under the rod tip in the deep margins. Battled ensued and 5 mins later (always feels longer) this barrel bellied common was in the net. Happy Angler

Weight of Fish: 45lb

Having woken at to get to the lake early, I opted Spend the morning watching the water whilst waiting to get into a swim that had good recent form and of which I managed 4 fish from on my last trip. I had seen a couple of shows in this area Whilst watching and wasted no time in getting my gear round once it became free. After a quiet first night and morning the left hand rod let up a couple of bleeps and the bobbin pulled up tight. As I lifted the rod the line kited right and I knew I was into a good fish. It fought really well and every time I gained some ground it seemed to strip line again . After a good battle I finally managed to keep its head up and glide it over the net cord. It was a fish named Bruiser at 45lb and after that fight I can see how it got its name. Made up to land my second 40 of the month. As with all my fish this winter falling to a CWGB boosted hookbait and take 4 topper. Spritzed with the matching bait spray over a small amount of the matching pellet, stick mix and DNA liquid.

Weight of Fish: 22.14
Venue: Linear ‘Guys’ Syndicate
So upon arrival to the lakes, myself and Team Member Dale, decided we would opt to fish the small lake. We knew it had been doing fish and always has good winter form! With it being dark and not really hearing/ seeing any signs I chose to set up in a swim that patrols the same body of water where fish had been coming out! Waking the next morning to a liner i thought it was game on however soon realised that a move would be the better option for the last couple of hours. A solid bag loaded with pellet and the all important crumbed up FBO and drizzle of liquid later, i was away! Landing my first winter carp for a number of years but more importantly my first of 2024 made for one happy angler!

After deciding again my first choice venue due to bank work being carried out, I settled in the lake next door. Known for bigger fish. After setting up the bailiff popped round and explained that it hadn't been fishing very well recently. Night quickly approached and just after 1am the buzzers burst into life with the cool little cold water common. Not the biggest by any means but my first of the year. And another to fall to the crustazia

Bait Used: Coldwater green beast wafter
Rig of Choice: Knotless knot coated braid
Weight of Fish: 31.12
Venue: Club lake
Arriving Friday after work, I soon had rigs on the spots at the first time of asking back in the peg I fished on my previous session. I sat back, opened a beer and was expectant of action through the night. The night proved quiet, but I was woken twice in the night, by few fish crashing close into the margins just off the rod tips. The next morning I examined the areas I had seen the fish rolling rather than the spots they had crashed, and found a small depression of soft clay. I opted to put a rig with a trimmed down wafter tipped with a few maggots and a small pva bag of crumbed boilies on the spot, and sat back for the remainder of the day. By dark the rain arrived and I was forced to letter box the door, when shortly before midnight I had the first bite, a 20lb mirror my prize. I quickly set about getting the rod back on the spot with a small pva bag as before, and retreated back to the dry of my shelter. I woke the next morning to no further action and was sipping what was to be my last brew before packing up when the margin rod pulled up the tip bobbing. I picked the rod up and instantly felt solid weight slowly ticking line of the clutch before gathering speed. After a deep battle and a few hairy moments with the trees to my right I netted a lovey common of 31.12. Well worth waiting for that last brew!

Rolling up again for another Fri nite I was confident after having fish on the last 2 consecutive Fri nites! But getting to the gate I was met with a lot more anglers than the last few Fri nites, the mild weather and fish catches clearly getting people out! Thankfully some how I managed to get back into the same swim and I thank the few regulars that left it for me! Same tactics again, 3 zigs soaked in supa fruit spray deployed at long range resulting in an early nite than the norm at 10pm then another on the usual 7am and I managed to hold on for a bit longer in morning nicking a 3 bite at 10am! Was mega chuffed considering the rest of the lake fished very slow whilst I was there!

I was presented with a very rare opportunity to do a day session so I popped down to my local club water and put out a couple of multirigs with white bubblegum pop ups. Nothing happened for a few hours so I repositioned the rods and after about 20 minutes the bobbin rose steadily to the blank on my right hand rod. After catching several commons, I was really pleased to land a very old looking mirror. At 21 lb 12oz, it's not that big but it made me smile!

With milder temperatures and a good low pressure system forecast, I knew I had to get down to the lake. I made the effort to get up early in the hope of giving me the chance to get on the fish! I arrived just before first light to find that the swim I had hoped to get in where I knew they’d been holding up was taken, but was pleased to get into my second swim choice which got me as close to that pack as possible. I found some spots near to where I had seen some bubbling and cast out 3 rods, all with CWGB boosted hookbaits topped with the take 4s spritzed with the matching bait spray. I opted to bait lightly introducing 3 spombs of CWGB pellet & stick mix soaked in the matching dna liquid over the top of each rod. After the first night and morning passed uneventful I wasn’t deterred as the conditions continued to improve, i topped up each spot with just a couple more spombs. Not long after first light on the second morning the bobbin pulled up tight on the left hand rod and after a good battle in the margins and under the rod tip, I managed to land the first of the trip. In the shape of this stunning 37lb 10oz mirror.

Turning up on a Fri afternoon I didn’t have much visually to go on! But I had pre idea on 2 swims I’d like to have got in both targeting to zones! With the clock ticking and light fading I jumped back in the same swim I’d fish last time, zigs soaked in supa fruit bait spray were deployed at 22 -25 wraps I settled down for the nite, listening and watching and heard nothing through the nite! Just before first light the first rod signalled a few bleeps and then motored off! It’s always a nervous time playing back a fish on a zig from such a distance feeling that light hook link and mono stretching on each powerful surge, but with careful persistence she was soon netted an a lovely dark 26 mirror laid in the net! Quickly re pinged the rod back out with a fresh zig! Couple more hours passed and whilst cooking the all important breaky another rolled signalled a flurry of bleeps and we was in again! This 1 just stripped line from the off, and I thought it was a decent 1! Again very slowly and carefully playing it back in she was netted with ease and a mega little fully was sat there at 25! Packed down by 10am and home for the family time for rest of the weekend!

Weight of Fish: 26, 26
Venue: Club lake
I will always be a firm believer, effort equals reward. Overnighters in winter packing up for work in the dark can be brutal, but equally rewarding when it goes right. Arriving just before dark, finding the lake busy,I was tipped off the swim I fished two nights previously was free, and on walking in, saw one show straight away. Needing no further encouragement the rod’s were dispatched to two known spots if found, 4 spombs of crumb n corn over each, with a handful of caster and maggots, and two trimmed coldwater wafters on the rigs over the top. The shows were relentless as it got dark and I started to think that something was a miss when the first rod was away just before 10pm with a 26lb common. Shots done rod back out I got my head down to be awoken only a couple hours later by a 18lber, which I slipped straight back. Rod back out, I looked for a couple of hours sleep, only to awoken at 6 by another common of 26lb. 3 hours sleep, 3 fish in a night, but a happy drive to work.

Weight of Fish: 22.04
Venue: Club lake
Arriving to 3/4’s of the lake frozen, and only 6 free swims with one other angler brave enough to face the elements, swim choice was fairly easy as a peg I had fished previously was free. Two rods out, both trimmed 15mm white coldwater wafters, with a small paste costing and a small stringer were sent out with around 5 spombs of coldwater crumb corn and lashings of dna liquid. Two shows just before dark gave me a small boost on confidence going into the night, but the night remained quiet. I woke up to static bobbins when just as it was light the left hander pulled twitchingly up, the delkim emitting a few bleeps and a brief uneventful fight yielded this mega scaly mirror, one of only a handful of mirrors in the lake. At 22.04lb it’s not a monster but on a lake covered with huge ice sheets, it was certainly well earned.

I have continued to use the Crustazia throughout this winter and the bites are still coming, although the bream are loving the bait a little bit too much! Its a crustacea meal (containing no fishmeal whatsoever) with milks so is highly attractive and very soluble and therefore a great choice to fish all year round. The latest carp, a fairly long common of 21lb came at 1am to a white crustazia pop up fished at 140 yards in a slightly deeper bit of water beyond some weed. If I had lost this one, I would have sworn it was a lot bigger as it really put a good account of itself once I got it in close.

🏔️ A carp tale from the alps 🏔️ Finally the day came where I got the time for a thrilling adventure to france 🇫🇷 but first 15 boring hours on the high way had to be killed before i reached my first destination “The alps”. The anticipation was high, so I used most of the first of seven days in the boat, searching for spots with the ekkosounder. At about 7 PM my 4 traps was set and the waiting game could begin.. First night a lost one carp, totally anti climax 🤦🏻‍♂️ Day 2 and 3 I lost 3 fish more, I was absolutely devastated!! Day 4: Finally, the perseverance pays off! A 19,8 kilo beautiful scaly mirror carp made its way to my net. The thrill of this catch couldn’t be described with words, after 4 lost fish I was over the moon with this one 🌖 patience is key in this game! The 2 next days the momentum of bites starts to build up. I managed to catch 3 more between 15 and 18 kilos. And the last night was epic 🔥 4 carp ranging from 18,3 kilo to a whopping 22.9 kilos! The adrenaline rush was unmatched. What an unforgettable 7 days in the heart of the Alps, filled with highs and lows, but the patience paid off 🏞️

When i booked the session at Creedence fishery in November i was worried that weather could change and there was the possible chance that the lake could freeze. Fast forward 4 weeks and with temperatures and conditions looking bang on, i was hugely confident i could at least grab a bite. The reason i wasnt hopeful for more than one bite was the lake had completly turned off and only had 1 bite since i booked it. So what happened over my 48 hour session was a very nice surprise and one i will remember. I ended up with 3 x 20s and 4 x 30s with my biggest being just under the 40lb at 39lb 10oz

Bait Used: Crustazia
Rig of Choice: multirig
Weight of Fish: 20lb 4oz
Venue: club water
For the last 3 years, out of pig headed determination, I have continued to fish my syndicate water through the winter months but this season I decided enough is enough and I need to focus my attentions on a club water where a winter bite is certainly not a given, but is a more realistic possibility. Due to work/family commitments I was aiming to make a start in January but I managed to squeeze a night in on the 30th December. We are still in the clutches of storm Gerrit so I checked wind direction and planned to fish an area where the wind would be pushing over my shoulder and assist me in the casting. I managed to hit the clip at 136 yards which put me right in the area I needed to be but the bow in the line wasn't ideal so when a friend next door suggested I used his bait boat, I didn't argue. One rod went out at 136 yards and one at 140 both with multirigs and white crustazia pop ups with around 10 Crustazia bottom baits. Within a couple of hours the bobbin of the rod at 136 yards pulled up to the blank and held and a kinky backed common was coaxed back to the waiting net. I don't own a bait boat and the purist in me almost wishes I had cast the rods out but this just goes to show that there are tools available to us as anglers that make the job not just easier and safer but more accurate too. Yes, I could have cast the rods out but to accurately put 10 baits around the hookbait with a spomb at that distance in 45mph winds would have been a tough ask and I didn't want to deposit lots of bait all over the swim through inaccurate casting, certainly not in the middle of winter.

Bait Used: Strawberry and condensed milk pop up and CWGB take 4 yellow
Rig of Choice: German rig
Weight of Fish: 28lb 4 oz and 22lb 8 oz
Venue: Niagara River
The last session of 2023 with unusually mild weather. An early start well before first light was peaceful but quiet having cast out only singles. After recasting with pva bags of crushed supafruit boilies and 3mm supafruit pellets, the rods went into action within minutes. A stunner of a 28.4 common was quickly followed by a 22.8 . While resetting the rod a third fish of approximately 12 or so pounds took the yellow take 4 wafter and was released at the net. All In all, a strong finish to the year with quality fish on great bait.

Weight of Fish: 23lb
Venue: Earls hall
The lake is a beautiful little 3 acre bookings style venue, and when our time slot on the lake arrived so did the cold weather, the lake gad switched off, not what you want to be hearing when you turn up to fish! With only 2 fish been banked for weeks. So I deployed slip D rigs baited with N blend wafters on all 3 rods and a light sprinkle of 16mm N blend over the top. I chose this method as most people are using solid bags, that haven't produced so thought I'd go down this route, and it payed of as around 10.30 on the second night my right hand rod was away. It's no monster at 23lb but a very welcome fish on a very cold session.

Bait Used: N blend with n blend pop up
Rig of Choice: Hinge stiff rig
Weight of Fish: 42.04
Venue: Berners Hall
With a lack of time due to other commitments, I was due to be restricted to overnighters for a couple of weeks. Spotting a few small windows in the diary on Berners, being so close to work, and the nights pulling in, I thought it would be a great chance for nicking a few bites Long and short, 3 overnighters later and nothing for my efforts, a change was in order. The lake had been doing lots of bites on solid bags and small beds of bait, so I had been dropping small baits with the boat, using seed and boilie crumb but it wasn't working. I dispensed with this and went for my preferred method for the autumn tactic of hinges and boilies, and swapped to tiger line to keep the lines out the way of wary fish . Arriving the 4th night, a week later, I found the lake quieter one side, with most anglers one side, and the fish in residence, off the back away from the angling pressure. 3 hinges were dispatched with 20 baits on each, didn't take long to bring the desired result as only 3 hours after getting the rods out, I had a melting take and was soon doing battle, with something that was powerful and heavy. The tiger line held I soon had it coughing water, and the net engulfing my prize. The General laid in the bottom of the net, and weighing in at 42.04, my hinge nestled perfectly in the bottom lip.

Bait Used: Crustazia
Rig of Choice: multirig
Weight of Fish: 28lb 12oz
Venue: Burghfield blue pool
A few of the DT baits team had a social at the blue pool in Burghfield and it proved to be quite tricky. I tried a few different tactics through the trip including solid bags and chod rigs, dropping bait with a baiting pole but no fish. With 24 hours to go, I knew I had to do something so I put multirigs back on helicopter set ups with the matching crustazia pop ups and after dropping the rig from the baiting pole, I scattered baits over the area rather than using the pole because I wanted a spread of bait rather than baiting too tight. This is how I would usually fish anyway and I felt I had done all that I could. Within a few hours during some heavy rain, The bobbin rose up to the blank and I almost disbelievingly lifted into a fish. The fish dipped into the weed momentarily and so had some over its head during the fight which helped a bit, and shortly later I had a 28lb 12 oz mirror in the net. All this just goes to show- you go to these heavily pressured lakes that are booked out all year round and its easy to try to fish in a different way to what you are used to but stick to your guns and do what you know works for you.

Following a social with some close friends, I was now entering a 24 hour challenge with Sean from Canandian Carp Society. Having lost more than I had caught and the biggest coming out in past 2 days being 18lb, confidence was low. However despite the torrential rain, I knew I had to move swims to put me in the best position to challenge Sean, who was fishing a lake that he had fished many times before. Frustratingly the challenge for me started as my social finished with another fish being lost, but what happened just as it got dark was definitely unexpected. At one stage I had 63lb of carp in Slings and couldn't keep a rod in the water. I finished with 11 carp weighing a total of 220lb. Not bad for 24 hours fishing. Despite all my efforts and a very competitive challenge,I was sadly just beaten by 1lb.2oz, with Sean deservedly winning the competiton.

Well wat can I say, I was on the last off my days off work doing a little 5 week stint campaign doing a Tues overniter and a Thurs and Fri nite! The lake had been kind to me and so far been a successful mini campaign! I was due to have my last Friday off but decided to change it to following Monday as there was a lot of heavy rain forecast for Thurs nite and Fri and I’ve never done well in the rain! I managed the Fri nite anyway, and had a 30.4 mirrror and left early sat morn! That was to b the only fish out all weekend! I returned Sunday afternoon and felt I needed to change things! Out in the boat water clarity was now improving and I could still see some bait left on me spots from Fri, I decided to investigate and found 2 new spots! 1 being the size of a dustbin lid, H blocks set and many casts to get the rod out perfect I wasn’t expecting much if anything to happen til following day! 2 hours later the bobbin pulled up and I was in! Removing the fish from 2 weed beds I had no idea wat I was connected to a soon had it in the net! Removing the rig I thought it looked big and then I see the slight pop rib on its side and it sunk in to wat I had just caught! Cassius at 48.4 a new pb for me and a fantastic end to my little campaign

Weight of Fish: 34lb 2oz
Venue: Berkshire gravel pit
As the temperatures dropped and the barometric pressure remained low, I headed to my local gravel pit with a clear plan in mind. I knew exactly which part of the lake I wanted to target. This weekend, I decided to make a switch from my trusty fish, blood, and orange bait to the N-blend and Cold Water Green Beast. The first 24 hours passed without any real signs of fish in the area. Undeterred, I persisted and added more bait to the spots while carefully setting up my rigs. Just when I least expected it, my middle rod suddenly took off, but I lost the fish when it grated on one of the sharp gravel bars in front of me. Another night came and went without any action, but there were small signs of fish in the area, indicated by the occasional bubbling on the surface. I decided to cast out my rods again that night, using the Cold Water Green Beast pop-ups. At 5 am in the morning, while most of the world was still asleep, my left-hand rod came to life. The adrenaline rushed through me as I played the fish, and it was well worth it. It resulted in a breathtaking two-tone common, tipping the scales at an impressive 34lb 2oz

The last week of the summer holiday and with Bobbie ticking of most of his goals for the summer the week before it was time for a social with fellow team mate Andrew Greenhill. After a walk around the lake we decided on an area we had a good chance of a fish plus be in a good position for a social. A couple of nices days spent on the bank catching up and rescuing Bobbies drone back out of a tree after I crashed it. Fishing over 5 kilos of Crustazia and 5 kilos of matching pellets botched soaked in matching DNA I had a slow and strange tackle late afternoon the fish felt strange from the minute I picked up the rod but put that down to all the drifting weed. It’s been a while since Bobbie has let me fish and him watch so the pressure was on from his excitement bringing the fish in something didn’t feel right but it wasn’t long before a big branch appeared half way up my line and with the help from Andy and Bobbie we soon managed to remove it and was back in contact with a fish. Bobbie was desperate to land the fish for me but with all the palaver and the ball of weed attached to the fish I didn’t want to risk the hook hold and got Andy to do the deeds.

The weather was far from favourable for my swim but I was sure I could manage one or before the end of the trip. On the last morning, this beauty came for a visit. A great way to end a session, certainly takes the sting out of the quiet few days leading up to it!

Seeing fizzing all over my end of the lake had me casting singles around trying to find a quick bite, but after an hour or so it was clear the fish weren’t interested so I headed back to my swim to re think. I saw one more patch of fizz pop up so I gently flicked the rig out and set the rod. Less than 30 seconds later I was in, with this super angry 30lb machine attached to the end! Nice little result making this my second fish of the day

As the seasons are slowly shifting and autumn is fast approaching, I took the initiative to prepare a deeper section in the pit. Aware of an impending significant drop in pressure, I seized the opportunity to lower my rig onto the meticulously chosen spot. The following morning, fortune smiled upon me as I successfully hooked one of my target fish - known as the "Sandy mirror", as I weighed the fish, realizing that it wasn't just a target captured, but also a PB to add to the buzz!

A session to remember with a new set of goals for this season it was nice to tick three targets of Bobbies wish list! With the weather being nice Bobbie invited his Nan-E and Gar and his mum and sister up to the lake for a barbecue as the summer holidays were coming to an end. Just as Bobbie was finishing giving his Nan-E and Gar a guided tour of the lake one of his rods burst into life and after a good little battle we were sliding his net under a nice mid double common and ticking one of his goals off of the list a picture with his Nan-and Gar. The rest of the evening it was quiet but we sat back an enjoyed the company and barbecue and it wasn’t until the following day Bobbie managed to nick two more mid double commons. Just as Bobbie was landing his 3rd fish of the day his mum turned up sadly she missed seeing him catch it but he still managed to tick another goal off of his list a picture with his mum. Another mid double common slipped up taking his total to five fish but it wasn’t until we were getting ready to go asleep when the magic happened! A slow but steady take from the rod Bobbie had place in buy hand resulted in a slow but steady fight and you could sense it wasn’t going to be another mid double fish. As I slide the net under the fish I could see that it was a decent fish and probably a new PB on the scales we were right 25-08 a new pb but before we had chance to do the photos another one of his rods was away and before I had got chance to sort out the fish Bobbie was sliding his net under a lovely 22-06 common. A lovely brace of twenty’s now it was time to sort out the photos and the bucket of water treatment Bobbie had been after all summer a perfect way to end his summer holiday campaign!

Like last year, preparations for the autumn campaign are underway and the hunt for big pigs can begin.. This time DT Crustazia will come into play to see if it can keep up with last year's mega winner N-Blend. I am fishing the same big lake in Denmark as last year. The lake holds a low stock of carp and a massive population of bream. Therefor I choose to fish larger hookbaits in size 24 mm and with option of even larger handrolled Crustazia boilies presented as a snowman topped with an 18 mm Crustazia pop-up. Feeding between the sessions will be a combination of different particles, a mix of Crustazia boilies well sauced into liquid Crustazia DNA. Fingers crossed and hopefully this autumn's fishing can land me same amazing carps as last year. Here a few shots from last autumn's catch album. Tight lines

Arriving the Friday afternoon, I found the lake quiet so quickly checked out a few spots with a vague idea where I might find them. With nothing showing I opted on a spot that I knew would offer a good intercept point and 3 rods were sent out to the spot, 3kg of n blend, along with some pellet, corn and some tigers mixed in was spread over the spot. As the evening passed, with only a few shows I woke in the early hours to fish crashing out to my right but a few lumping out long towards my spot. I drifted back to sleep and woke to motionless bobbins. A brew and bite time passing I thought the chance had done when the left hander suddenly snapped from the clip and let out a short flurry of bleeps. Grabbing the rod, I went straight into the boat and wound myself out and initially what looked a small fish came up wallowing on the top. Straight into the net at the first time asking I rows back, and as Darren helped with pics the fish grew and grew. On the scales the needle spun to 34.14 and transpired to be a fish not out for a year! Totally made up!

The last 4 times I fished in that swim however, I had blanked, even when seeing fish but they had to slip up sooner or later. I had been fishing my favourite white Crustazia boilies all season and doing well on them but after those blank sessions, I started to wonder if it was time to switch back to something less blatant. To hedge my bets, one rod was put out on the usual multi rig with a white Crustazia pop up and the other rod fished just a meter away was a naked chod with a match the hatch Crustazia pop up. At 20.30 , the match the hatch rod pulled up tight and a fish was on. Annoyingly, that one came off and I then took 5 casts to get it back out in the dark because the first 4 casts sounded like they were landing a bit right of where I really wanted it to be. At 05.15 that same rod was away again and this time, I managed to land a lovely 25lb 14oz mirror. It just goes to show, if you think something isn't working, change it. Cheers Terry

Whilst on a family camping trip to finish the school holidays. I managed to get on a camp site which had lakes, better still we were able to set up near to the lake so I could fish for longer than I first thought. Only managed the one in the end but the perfect way to top off a beautiful couple of days away with the family.

A few days off work I had a 3 night session of which 2 nights were planned for a social with fellow team members Stephen and his nephew Bobby. Whilst Stephen was able to snare one going into the second night my bobbins remained motionless, and I had woken both mornings having heard fish further down the lake. The second morning however, I saw a very good fish crash out, I was already on the move! The boys said their goodbyes as I finished getting the 3 rods super tight to spot in the zone I had seen the fish early doors. The day passed and as it got dark they started to show, and just after midnight one boshed out over the spot, unmistakably a large fish. I drifted off to sleep, and woke in the dark to my receiver illuminating before a single bleep and the line pulling from the clip on the left rod. Snatching the rod from the rest, I was straight into my life jacket and out in the boat due to the severity of the weed and winding myself out into the darkness. As I neared the spot I felt the fish kick and suddenly she instantly popped up no more than two rods lengths from the boat, and wallow on the surface and at the first time of asking, glide over the net cord! I recognised her instantly, it was the Big Lin, and while it may have been a repeat from spring the year previous and a little down in weight at 39.08, no one could ever be disappointed when a carp looks as incredible as that! Buzzing!

Having slipped the two tone common back, I quickly got the rod back out I climbed into the sleeping bag to try and get my head back down. I didn’t get much sleep as, as the daylight started to creep over the trees the right hand rod started screaming! The tight clutch on tbr spool was screeching louder than the alarm! Racing to the rod m, instantly flat rodded the fish tore out the shallows for the deeper water and through the weed, so I went straight in the boat for a spirited scrap! Eventually the fish tired and I was soon back on the bank with 29.12lb of incredibly scaly mirror carp!

Bait Used: N blend and white n blend pop up
Rig of Choice: Hinge stiff
Weight of Fish: 34.4
Venue: The Quarry
Arriving to find the lake deserted I spent a good amount of time walking the lake before deciding on an area where I felt I would intercept fish moving out of the shallows in the night and back in the morning. A quick lead about found a clear shallow spot in front and a slightly deeper area out left surrounded by thick weed. Both spots baited with a liberal helping of whole and crushed n blend and tiger nuts, with short hinges over the top to combat the gravelly bottom and try and protect the hook points. As it got dark I worried I might have gone too heavy with the bait as the fish traffic seemed to pass quicker than expected before lingering on the edge of the deeper water around the thicker weed. Shortly after 2am the left hander was away and after steady pressure I guided my prize over the net cord, the two tone common a a spawned out 34.4, my white pop up hanging from its bottom lip. That wasn’t to be the end of the action however….

Rig of Choice: multirig
Weight of Fish: 19lb
Venue: syndicate lake
After spending the last couple of trips at a club water, I returned to my syndicate for my weekly overnighter . I set up in an area that I have fished a few times before and know can be a good interception point for fish moving from one end of the lake to the other and put out multi rigs with white cruztazia pop ups at 112 yards. A few spombs of crustazia boilies were put over each rod and four hours later I had my first bite. A stunning linear of 19lb was netted and water shots sorted out soon after. I did get another bite in the morning but sadly that one got away.
