Le Moulin du Mee catch report. W/e May 24th 2008.

This week we had an exclusive booking for 4 anglers and despite constantly changing weather conditions they managed to bank a total of 94 carp, 2 sturgeon and a solitary catfish.
The carp weights were as follows... 30lb+ - 14 carp, between 25-30lb - 23 carp, between 20-25lb - 24 carp, between 15 - 20lb - 21 carp, between 10-15lb - 11 carp.
Top rod for the week was Graham Odiam from Essex who banked a total of 49 carp, 1 sturgeon and a catfish. Prior to arriving at Le Moulin du Mee Graham had voiced his one wish of landing a 30lb + common carp....well he actually managed 3 of them at 34.12, 33.10 and 30.07 as well as mirrors of 34.6,32.10 and 30.1. Both the biggest mirror and common were new pb's for Graham .A great result !! Fellow angler Adam Bassett also broke his common and mirror pb's with a 33.2 common and a 31 mirror amongst his catch of 22 carp. Adams father Ray arrived with a pb of 15lb and well and truly smashed that with chunky 30.2 mirror amongst his catch of 13 carp. John (Shandy) Shand also broke both his pb's with a cracking 34.0 common and 32.8 mirror along with another 16 carp and a sturgeon.
What with constantly changing weather and spawning activity the lads did extremely well to amass such a catch and at times had to work hard for results. With 15 acres at their disposal fortunately they had plenty of options and all tried different swims at time during their stay.
All in all a great weeks fishing.
