A near record catch for Ed & Co.

June 26, 2015

Ed, Jim, Mark & Ken (Elite Carp Crew) very nearly beat the record for the number of Carp caught by a group of anglers in one week here at Genets. They managed 59 Carp between them which included new PB’s for 3 of them.

The current record stands at 63 Carp caught by Danny, Anthony & Matt (Norf London International Carp Hunters ) strangely enough during the very same week in 2011.

Extract from feedback w/comm 28th May 2011:

“We all had an excellent time fishing, & can’t wait to fish here again. WALLOP!!”

Jim fishing the bay last week said ” I found that hinged stiff rigs with sticky baits signature pop up accounted for a lot of my fish, fishing the far margins. There was no specific times they were feeding so it can happen any time, I had a double run so needed help with the other rod. We had some stunning fish but they make you work for them.”
