16LB 4OZ COMMON CARP

Venue: Newton Canal Upper Pound Section

Other Info: A free Monday off I headed to the local canal for hopefully a bend in the rod. Turning up I immediately found fish in areas I knew and they were feeding hard on naturals the silt blooms were phenomenal spooking them off with a bit of Key Cray I positioned the rig and it went out beautifully and it didn’t take long before they tuned back up in numbers and within 10 mins the rod was way resulting in this mid double common cracking start. I went on to land another 5 smaller fish to low double but this was the best of the bunch.
