Good its ugly, Jet black Carp.

Russells 24ld 6oz Carp

Yep back to the fishing again.

My eldiest son said he was going to fish this lake

so I decided I would tag along.

Escape chit in hand I left home at 06.45 and headed

to the lake.

Russell had just woken up having fished threw the night.

I set up my 14.5 mtr pole and my Bardel rod. Russell gave me on of his

Carp rigs he uses and so was ready to fish.

Russell told me to fish the pole rig next to a Lilly plant 14mtrs

in front of my swim and I put the Carp rig around 20mtrs out

and 5mtrs left of the pole line.

Straight away Maggots and Casters bought the small Roach and Rudd

up in plaque proportions.

So Sweet Corn was the next bait to try and straight away

a Skimmer Bream was caught. GO THE POLE.

Next the Barble rod started nodding and a 4ld Bream was landed.

Sweet corn again the bait.

Cast it back out and again the pole float dipped and stayed down

yahoo another Bream on, this time

3LD 10OZ.

And so it continued.

Until 11.30 when the bites died out,

and the rain started.

The rain the forcasters said was not going to hit Bristol!

Don't we love the Met Office.

Russell managed 2 Carp one weighed 24ld 6oz. and some Bream.

Hope to escape again on thursday 20 August.
