This must be my best result ever. Four large carp over 10 lbs, and the second largest carp I have ever caught. It was perfect conditions to get them going, and I managed to get my favourite spot by the boat.
My usual spot was taken so I set up where the tree fell down, and hoped for the best. When I arrived it was freezing cold and blowing a gale, but soon turned into a really nice afternoon.
Sat in a freezing cold wind all day in the back bay, but caught carp all day long and almost from the beginning. I have decided to not use pre-tied hair rigs any more because they let me down badly today.
