Rob Riseborough, who has only really started carp fishing this year, had a great 3 hour session banking carp of 15lb, 19lb and a PB 22lb 6oz mirror. Mark Sawyer had five fish in a night including a 25lb+ common. James Anderson banked 5 or six fish and lost a couple (including a very big black common) in his 36 hour stint. Andy Knight had six takes and banked four during 12 hours to 18-19lb from peg 10 on Saturday night. Richard Brown had two to 20lb and lost one during a night on his first trip to the venue. I took a picture of Pete Luckmans first ever twenty pound common which he had yesterday evening within an hour or so of turning up. Lots of other have also done well, so sorry for not mentioning every ones name.
The fish have been really spread out and all the swims have produced. Spodding pellets and chopped boilies has been the best tactic. But don't forget your floater rod if you come over as the carp have been feeding really well on the top in the right conditions.
Just to remind every one we are shut this weekend from Friday 12pm to Sunday 12pm for the BCAC UKcarp cup qualifier match. Good luck to all 10 entering the competition, I can't wait for the match to begin.
I hope you like the pic's.
