Beaten up!

Blog Update

Blog update, had the same 14lb common in two running sessions? Then the Biggest fish so far this season from Straits a 21.8lb Common but didn't have the camera :( But todays fish made up for it, a 19lb immaculate ancient common (like a fish you would find in redmire) and it fought like stink!!!!!

Score Draw

Fished Straits this evening and had four fish, two low tratty doubles and the "Two Tone" Common at 17.12lb and also a decent 16.11lb.

I've had a few trips in the last 10 days and this has only resulted in handful of low to mid double figure fish, the state of the mouths on most of them is shocking. Two of them would stuggle to get a 14mm boilie in there mouth?

Short and Sweet

Will be joining BDAC this season as a short session option, again mainly fishing Straits Mill. Had a walk round at the end of March, some of the sneaky secret spots are no longer present including the "Alex Swim" tree along with the "Compass Swim" over hang tree spot. With the lake being opened up and with many carp holding spots being removed fishing may become slower this year. But many of the overlooked fishing spots still exist and a bend in the rod should still be easy to come by....hopefully

The Fairytale Session !!

I had eight Carp in a nine hour session down Straits Mill which included: 13lb, 18.14lb, 14lb, 16.8lb, 9.13lb, 20.1lb (Fully Scaled Mirror), 11.4lb and 19.6lb !! I will no be joining BDAC next season so this was the final session for a year or two down Straits, so what away to bow out...

Round Two

Turned up a Straits late afternoon today, their must have been 10-12 cars in the car park! But bagged two doubles the swirly belly Common at 16.1lb & 12lber.
