Mayday!


Typical May bank holiday weather - hammering down. And four carp managed to slip the hook before this beauty found the net - 10lb 7oz. Soaked through but job done; double number 3 on the scorecard.

  1. Sun up here today. Nice carp though! Your target will be done in no time.

    1. From what I’ve heard it was sunny everywhere except over that pond. The heavens opened! But can’t complain (too much) with a carp like that!!

    1. It’s a lot more difficult than it looks - crafty buggers - and they know exactly where every snag is. But can’t have it too easy…

    2. No, you can not !

      But will say some of them are proper lookers, so it's worth the effort.

    3. Fresh off the mint - who knows, perhaps there is a twenty pound gem in there… I’ll see if I can find one…
