YES! My first double!


Jamie Thornton

Recommended Posts

Im really pleased today because I have just caught my first ever double figure carp, topping the scales to 13lb 3oz. It was caught at 10.55pm last nite (21/10/02) and fell to an Assassin-8 boilie (dipped in N-R-G dip)in a tight corner of a small lake near some reeds! It may be small to some anglers but I'm very proud of it- rounds off the end of the season for me :) Pictures will be posted soon hopefully!

 

Just thought I'd let u know - also u might remember me posting a topic about peoples first doubles and what it was like and now I know :D

Congratulations Jamie!

 

What sort of carp was it? - and what do you mean by it rounds off the end of a season for you?

 

Get out there and get some more!(says he who's nearly packed up his carp gear. :D )

 

It's gone all mild again and I may just get out this weekend.

 

Get a piccy up.

 

Well done.

Sorry I didnt mean season I meant year! I've been fishing since the very first few weeks of this year and with continuous 6-8lb Carp it is a nice bonus! Dont worry I will be out there again this year! Next trip is Thursday I think! :D:D

 

It was a long common however it did have a slight belly on it! It was in good shape and condition too which was pleasing.

Jamie,

Great way to put an explanation point on this years activities. It is also good to know that you have not taken the money and ran by quiting after this catch. We all look forward to seeing the pictures when they are available. :)
