The Well provides new PB for James Davies
James Davies (brother of Thompson's pool regular Jon) beat his previous personal best by just 4 oz with a superb 28 lb 12 oz mirror. James fished alongside Jon in "The Well" swim catching the specimen on Tails Up OCM on a size 6 Fox series 1 hook. Lee Moriarty and his pal Lee Warwick both had a fish with a 19 lb and 22 lb mirror respectively. It was Heathrow Baits Red Indian boilies doing the trick for both anglers. Steve Jones fished "The Well" a couple of days before James Davies (above) and managed a 20 lb mirror. Steve fished small P.V.A bags filled with pellet and crushed Dynamite Indulgence Spicy Chicken boilies.
Wes Williams broke his personal best by over 3 lb with a gorgeous looking 24 lb common. Wes who has only been carp fishing a few months now and has already caught a host of impressive specimens. Wes set up on the "Double Bay", fishing Trakker Redskin boilies.
Joe Chambers fished Thompson's Pool in search of one of the big catfish and was made up when he landed the smaller of the two, but still a whacking fish weighing 28 lb. Joe fished the "Barbecue" swim on 21mm halibut pellets.
The Old Carp Lake has been prolific over the past few weeks and continues to do so during this hot weather. Local youngster Dan Congrave caught six fish during a 48 hour session. His fish included a 11 lb 8 oz mirror and the biggest of the session a 13 lb mirror. Dan fished the "Volcano" swim, Nash Formula Fish his chosen bait. Stuart Whittaker managed a hat-trick of fish during a short evening session. Stuart had fish of 9 lb, and two 8 lb mirrors all on Elite Baits Christmas Cracker.
