Hi Smudgerz,

We fished Saturday night also but nothing to show for our efforts, I know 3 fish cam out Friday night and I was fishing the same area but nowt. That’s fishing 🙂

Give it another couple of weeks I think, that wind was a bit cold for me 🙂

I was just up the bank from you then with a couple of other blokes, 3 of us fished Saturday and 2 of us Saturday night through to Sunday. Will wait for it to warm up a bit I think…

Effort V’s Reward, not so bad if fishing for bigger weights 🙂

Grimshaws has started to fish well over the last week. Even in the strong wind today I managed to net 3. I managed to beat my grimshaws PB by getting a 15lb common carp that was in cracking condition

Mirror carp weighing 8lb 4oz

A stumpy mirror carp weighing 6lb

The beautiful common carp weighing 15lb. Well chuffed.

Just a couple from the weekend, young lad is getting used to handling the fish and how to do it safely. Had a great session, banked 5 and lost 3 🙁
