I have done very little fishing this month, mostly due to being on work experience for a few weeks, but also my continued lack of interest in fishing on the whole! However towards the end of the month I went on an overnight session on Broadlands practicing for the BCAC with my partner for the [...]
I started off this month having a quick day session, practicing on the venue that I am doing the UK Carp Cup on later this year, the Long Lake at Coking Farm in Dorset. The lake is about 4 acres in size, rammed with carp averaging around 7lb with a few doubles, going up to [...]
This month I started my mini winter campaign on the Top Lake at Longleat. The lake is a 6 or 7 acre estate lake set in the grounds of the Longleat estate holding a good head of decent size fish, with the biggest being “Shadow”, a 30lb common I’d dearly love to catch! My first [...]

This month I have been swamped with college work so time on the bank has been a bit limited. However, taking the time to do the assignments at home with proper research meant I got good grades, so I should have more time on the bank next month! My first trip this month was a [...]

My fishing this month started off with a 48 hour session on the prolific Brasenose-2 on the Linear complex with my sister. The session started very badly, losing the first 6 [...]
Nearly 4 years ago I first set foot on one of the large gravel pits controlled by my local club. The lake is roughly 23 acres in size, much bigger than anything I had fished at the time! I spent the day catching some roach and the odd bream from short range, but big crashes [...]
