Before you ask, it was caught upstream of Great Yarmouth, from a boat! And it was caught on maize, and there are bigger fish there!! It only goes to show that you don't need all the must have baits and paraphanalia to catch near 40's!! Oh, and it wasn't an accidental capture, so no, it wasn't a nuisance fish!!

In today's AT there's a bloke who took a 30 from the River Cam by getting out in a boat and fishing the colleges reaches of Cambridge.
I bet that's the one of the carp I used to feed every lunch time at Silver Street. They usually had their heads stuck up a sewage outfall pipe but would always come out to play when I dropped the bread in.
Those lunch hours used to seem like 10 minutes and were definitely worth the price of a loaf.
Great achievement especially with all those punts [correct spelling] around.
I wonder when he will catch the big one and the 8lb Chub?
