Catch Reports
Incredible success!
Posted in Catch Reports on 01st July 2011We've had loads of big common reports lately but Matt Davies has recently taken the carp world by storm and wins our 'Top Catch Competition' hands down. Shortly after catching 'The Mother' from Elstow at 46lb 14oz, (not on Essential Baits) Matt decided to open up his account on Bundy's pit using a mixture of B5 boilies and pellets and on June 16th he banked a new lake record in the shape of this awesome 46lb 6oz common!! This topped an eight fish catch, which also included mirrors of 37lb 10oz and 35lb 4oz - top B5 bombing!!
As if all the above wasn't enough, Matt returned to the pit the following week for a short overnighter and banked anover massive common! This one went 43lb 12oz and was a fish that hadn't seen the bank for 2-years! Once again, the incredible B5 doing the business.
Well done Matt from all at Essential. That really is a hectic spell of big fish action...
The journey continues
Mike Willmott wrote his first book, Carp Life, way back in 2002 and it received high praise from all quarters with many angler's proclaiming it to be the finest carp book ever written. The demand was enormous and just two years later, all copies had completely sold out. Due to demand, the book was finally re-printed in 2006, but now, more than a decade later and after five years of putting it all together, the long-awaited follow up to this extraordinary publication has arrived!
This 464-page publication is far bigger again than Carp Life 1, and includes hundreds of different images, line drawings and sketches that have never been published before. Mike very rarely writes in the magazines these days, but all of this unseen material has now come to fore in this new eagerly awaited book that is about to take the carp world by storm.
