Spawning Finished

I've had carp on the farm for over 20-years and I have never seen them spawn in April, but on Mustang Lake they had a proper go at the start of the week. As a result the fishing has been very patchy, but it does look like they are back on the feed now and I expect after expending all that energy they will have a big feed up in the next week or two.

We've had a few nice fish out since I last posted with the best being a 25lb 14oz common taken from peg 6 by Dale (his first fish from Mustang). Other 20s have come from peg 2,8 and 10. No one has had a good hit this week, and we have had some blanks, but I know everywhere is fishing patchy at the moment because the carp have other things on their minds.
Hope you like the pic's.
