What was the biggest carp you caught ?



the carp are around the 5-7lb range all commons, strange really i thought the wind was swirling at 8mtr out but when i was plumming up i was having liners off a shoal and struggled to set the depth so set my rig rock bottom fed 1 pot of liquidized corn fished worm and bingo i was in. Image

one guy was fishing with pellets and was sacking, i thought they were banned Image

TBH I'm not sure on the rules now. I think they have changed to what I originally posted.
Tinky is ringing them up to finalize the rules.
All I know is that you can't use your own nets there.

48.4 mi – about 1 hour 2 mins
Thats one way for me Image

Me and Dryduck are getting there at about 7.30-7.45 for a bit of brekky by the way.

I need to go round the pool and shoo any wildlife away just incase Image

I could also get Tinky to ring round the lads that are coming and ask them to bring any grasscuttings or kitchen scraps to contribute towards your wormery. Image
