The Linear Experience...

stotty and critch managed to sneak a 3 night session
down at linear fisheries St Johns lake.
when they arrived the whole complex was froze. after picking the only peg on the lake that was fishable they decided to set up camp and was pleased with there pegs.
after a cold night,at 10am the following morning, jamies middle rod screemed off!!
after a short fight a cracking 21lb 8oz mirror was in the bag.
the fish was caught at the range of between 100 - 110yrds on a single fluro pop up.
no more fish was caught within there session but they will be going back after christmas in search of even bigger oxfordshire lumps ;)

winter campaign....

the winter is beginning to set in,
but it didn't stop Stotty from bagging this cracking linear mirror,
the linear weighed in at 15lb 14oz... (both sides)
unfortunately Critch didn't catch, but was a dab hand on the camera. ;)
here's for a few more winter fish!!!

northwest mere success...

stotty and critch managed to get amongst some lovely fish at the weekend,
including a new PB for stotty weighing in at 27lb 8oz,
in order of capture,
stotty's new Pb 27lb 8oz mirror,
again stotty with a lovely 19lb two tone mirror,
and last of stotty's fish was a 16lb mirror,
last but no means least was critch's cracking 18lb mirror.
all the fish caught were caught from the margins in torrential rain.

Perfection In Miniature

A few stalking trips to a local haunt,
produced two lovely Common Carp (maybe the same fish) of 8lb for Stotty.
one of them falling for a single premier baits boilie,
and the other falling for two grains of imitation corn,
both mounted to blow-back rigs.

certainly a couple of fish for the future ;)

A couple from recent sessions

A couple of recent night sessions,
saw Critch and Stotty getting amongst some fish.
starting with Critch's 21lb cracking mirror,
caught on double premier baits boilies mounted onto a blow-back rig
And stotty's 17lb 12oz clean looking mirror
caught on premier baits boilies tipped with imitation corn mounted also on a blow-back rig.

La Saule Paquot, The result....

After a red hot week at Paquot, Critch managed this 41lb 8oz Mirror the day after arriving.

The fishing was hard all week but came slowly and steady to two pegs on the lake.

4 anglers caught and 4 anglers blanked. Thats Fishing i suppose.

none the less Top service from the TAG carp tour lads.
