Fishery Record Broken

I will keep this blog short and sweet as I think the pictures speak a thousand words. But last night Joe Morgan banked the "Wood" common from Spitfire Pool at a new fishery record weight of 48lb 8oz. I had the pleasure of being on the other side of the camera this time round and was completely blown away by how stunning the fish looked - magic.
Well done Joe - top angling mate!

Autumn Gold

There have been some stunning fish banked on Mustang since I last posted. The carp are really feeding up now to build up their fat reserves for the winter months. Two different anglers have had five fish hits and the biggest carp banked last week was a lovely 24lb common by Pete Luckman - great angling mate.

PVA bags of chopped boilies fished over a spread of 30 - 40 free offerings has been working well. Nash Squid and Mainline Cell / Grange are the best baits to use by a mile.

Carp TV have been down doing a spot of filming with myself and Joe Morgan on both lakes, so if you want some good info about the fishery and tactic's check out their monthly DVD.

Pike fishing has been really easy for the guys that have given it ago. Five anglers have banked over 30 pike between them. One guy had 10 in a day. There have been 3 different pike banked over 15lb and five lower doubles. Great sport if you love pike. Float dished smelt, or ledgered sardines or mackerel have been instant.

I've struggled to get hold of some nice photos this week, but many thanks for the guys who have taken the time to send me their shots.

I hope you like the pic's
