3/5/12
I had two nights ahead of me on the bank of the estate pond. Though not
many big carp in there i love this little untouched lake. There are carp
to 30lb but none of that matters.
I had now built up this swim with a steady baiting campaign going on, and these carp are loving celticbaits.
Id already had the spots clipped up so baited rig with tiny bag and rods were out by early evening.
The night was quiet,but saw fish in the areas so rebaited and put back
out. The first fish was off by about 10a.m the fish played well and
tired easy enough. Into the net first time of asking. A chunky common
looked heavier but went 15lb 9oz. Came on crustation boilie.
The day was quiet after that for most of it until about 6pm when another
one toner hit into what was a small carp of 11lb exactly again to
crustation. Rod back out and the third rod was off this time the fish
went nutty it swam at me faster than i can wind in. Then it just swam on
its back then jumped it was frantic especially for such a small carp.
Slightly bigger at 11lb 11oz. This one came on G-Nut again same rig type
same bag set up. Ive devised a rig that i think is unique. I love it
and works well here.
The second night again was a silent night. Was just thinking of starting
to pack up when again one of the rods was off. Again it was a one toner
lifted into the rod and it felt like a nice fish. No one to do the
photos, dont like the way self takes are turning out at moment so i took
a quick pic in the net. Weighed in at 12lb.
That was a strange session in as much as nothing during darkness but still enjoyable
Thanks to celticbaits for producing such a lovely bait. Cant wait to be out again. Next session is going to be a one nighter.
