This long, lean, fighting machine kickstarted a true winter red-letter session for me. After arriving just before dark, I did a lap of the lake. It was like a millpond, not a breathe of wind. This enabled me to scan the water and eventually I found some bubblers. A decent show shortly followed and my mind was easily made up.
I knew a few spots already and soon had hook baits consisting of @ccmooreuk Live wafters over some offerings comprising maggots, casters, crumb and crushed hemp. I’d also added in some @carpparticlesuk snail shell , a little product I’ve been playing around with.
A take didn’t ensue until first light, when the rod ripped into life and I landed this powerful 30lb mirror. Check out the unique black spot on its flank.
