April News
Finally looks like we are getting a break from a long and brutal winter, with a glimpse of spring. It won't be long before mother nature sounds her wake up call and the start of carp fishing comes to life for another year.Rising temperature and the start of the larvae hatch's, sightings of the first mosquito searching for your blood. It's that time of year when those in the right swim in the right conditions will have a result, there always seems to be the one who finds the carp in feeding mode, and true to form at the last CarpBaitUK Social and pairs match Jay Hill was that one who stole the weekend with the biggest haul of fish. Well Nailed! Jay Though Carlos who caught the biggest fish and his team member Mr T who was poking around in the margins sneaking a few out from under his feet, were close on Jays tail. 'Nice One Carlos'
Thanks guys it was a another cracking weekend despite the early morning frosts, most went home with wet nets.
Looking forward to the next!
It was on my cards to sneak a bit of fishing in Late February / early March before the company 'goes into overdrive' for another year.
Obviously I did not 'come up trumps' like most carp anglers across the country fishing became redundant especially on the flooded waters.
Though, did manage to sneak out once the water levels allowed and on my second session on a new water was welcomed by a 35lb 8oz common(Right)
The fish fell to the New Project X, bottom bait, with thirty or so free offerings.
Very made up - Patrick Bilman has ticked another fish off his target board, in the shape of the River Bay Linear (below), from Bawburgh.
The fish fell to THE FORM freezer bait . A right result from a difficult water.
Putting his stamp on Linch Hill - Harry said 'it was looking good for a bite', and he was absolutely bang on, bagging seven fish up to 27lb 4oz,
these all being a share of some stunning old mirrors and commons that the Cotswolds are famous for, all fish were caught on the KT30 Freezer Bait.
Harry braved the cold water, with a absolute stunning Mirror of 27lb 2oz (Below),
Ryan Dayman (below) was blown away with this stunning Common of 31lb 4oz, during some extremely early winds - Ryan said 'I saw the fish on
the wind so I set myself up right in the thick of it, and got the take at 1.30am in the morning' taken on the FORM Frezzer Bait. 'Well deserved'
What a Peach!Not left out of the action was Bobby Tinkler (below) from Lincolnshire, who landed this peach of a fish, on the Form
weighing in at 28lb. 'Nice One Bobby'
What a Start to the year!
