Hi everyone
on monday the 12th of april i went to fennes fishery hoping to go on ash grounds lake where my mate caught a 16lber but it was heaving so i went on the lake opposite hoping that id still catch. But it was bad both lakes where dead nobody caught anything until the clock hit 12 then it really cae alive(one bloke had 6 fish and he went at about half 4. I moved round the lake just before 12 to a susspected big catcher swim and i cast right to the iland. (the carp where feeding so much if i looked under the tree with my binoculars i could see carp near the surface) from there on i first caught a 9lb common and then a 10lb common but the 11lber was a strange catch. I was reelng in to recast to more feeding fish and i had a touch (i thought it was weed so i carryied on and, OH NO IVE GOT SNAGED but hang on snags donttake lin and i had a 11lb mirror on th bank. I was using scopex cream/scopex ice cream. my rig was a simple leadclip. I had an excellent day.

10-lber
11-big-lbs
