B5 blitz on Linear St Johns!
This has to be one of the best catch reports of 2012 and just goes to prove how much of an advantage a high quality food bait will give you on a busy circuit water.
Ben Thompson from Taunton recently visited St Johns lake on the Linear complex and completely smashed it to pieces with an incredible 44-fish haul - and if that wasn't enough, Ben also managed to bank a new lake record common in the shape of this stunning 43lb 15oz specimen known as 'The Box Common'! The impressive tally included twenty fish over 20lbs, including this cracking 36lb 15oz mirror (pictured below).
Ben presented his B5 pop-up rigs over Shellfish B5 16mm freezer boilies fished to clear patches amongst weed and varying ranges and topped up the spots with 100-freebies between each capture. Well done Ben from all at Essential. That's an incredible session and puts you in pole position for our 'Top Catch' competition.
