Things started well, and carried on at a frantic pace. As soon as I chucked the ledger out, another bite happened. It was great fun, and although the carp were small, they fought like mad, and it was real struggle to get them in.
The biggest carp was on the float, but the other 8 were on fruity boilie on the bolt rig, just off the reedy point of the next swim along. I was using the very short hook length of the pre-tied hairs (about three inches) that I bought recently, and these seem to work very well. I can not remember the last time I caught nine carp in one session. They were particularly beautiful some of them, and one was a koi.
I did not want to go home when it was getting dark, as I was still getting good bites, and probably could have caught a lot more.
