Jimmy Snuka


Decided to make life difficult for myself; a carp on the fly. Thought it wouldn't be too hard with so many carp - but despite lots of fish investigating a variety of flys it took 1½ hours before one hit a Squirmy Wormy - totally worth it though!


I then switched to float fished bread (far, far easier) banking another 20 carp over the next two hours - including double #15 at 10lb 2oz - a surprise stunner. And my Dad landed 18 carp in the swim next door - a great few hours on the commerical!

  1. I bet those carp are praying for rain Brian. They want you back on the rivers😄

    1. Looks like we’re at least 2 weeks away from any rain - until then the carp (and hopefully perch) will have to put up with me..!
