Down in Cornwall at the moment. Been out fishing today, so thought I’d do a bit of showing off with a beauty I caught today.
Now before others boast of 30lb carp etc, I caught this common with a standard rod (not carp rod).
Only had a 7lb line, no boilies etc, just a bit of bread.
18lb of solid muscle. Took me 20 minuets to land it as my rod was virtually bent in two!
@tench0771 I know you live in the south west, do you know ‘smugglers lakes’ at Cubert, between Newquay and perranporth?
Its a good day out. Also had a bag of big bream.
