John Hill recently caught one of the finest commons on the complex in the shape of Angel at over 43Ib. The car park lake at Irchester is notoriously tricky and can really do you over. What makes this capture even more special is that word on the street, the carp after a decade have stopped eating our beloved shrimp Clearly Angel didn’t get the memo Good angling buddy the most wanted ain’t far away.

It’s no secret that those big old Nene Valley commons love a bit of shrimp. For years now this bait has been one of the most consistent catches of big, old knarly commons and mirrors all over the country, but quite notably in the Nene Valley. Here’s Mr.Salmons with just one of those kind of fish. Fishing straight, unmolested boilies with simple pop up tactics over the top. Good angling as ever mate. Continue reading

It’s fair to say Wez has made the Folly look pretty easy! Having caught his most wanted first bite he did carry on and catch a few. This particular trip he was supposed to be heading to St.Ives but received word his main target from there had been out. A bit despondent he decided to head back over to the Folly. Not a bad conciliation prize black spot at 42+ Consistent as ever mate. Continue reading
One of the midlands finest. Bards has been chasing this for a couple of seasons on the low stock pit. Having caught the majority of the stock repeats we’re starting to happen. After being ill and not wanting to infect his household, he headed to the lake. The following morning out the blue Baz was his. Feeding his favoured squid little and often around the lake has been the downfall to nearly all the stock. Good angling mate well done Continue reading
What a lovely old black one for Mark Davidson. Fishing the famous Monks pit, Mark fished a mix of Shrimp boilie crumb, fish mix pellet all dosed up with Amino 30. A small shrimp wafter over the top completed the set up. At over 35Ib not a bad way to end the session. Continue reading
Gary Binder made his way to the mighty river Trent for a short 3 hours session. Before he went he soaked some shrimp dumbells and some high oil pellets in our famous Amino 30 liquid. Not long in to the session the rod was hooped over and this 14ib 12oz barbel was the culprit. The Amino 30 is a fantastic additive for the rivers. Being heavy it sits down on the bottom and creeps along with the tow leaving an incredible scent trail on the deck where the barbel are feeding. Good angling mate well done Continue reading
