Richard Ford bags a forty in difficult conditions


Richard Ford lured this 41.4lb Mirror into his net despite a difficult weeks' fishing. The fish were right in the middle of their spawning season and not much was biting. In addition to this fantastic fish, him and the other lads in week 11 did catch a good few 30s and upper 20s and very much enjoyed the hot weather and cool lager!

David Jacobs bags not one but two 40s


We're not entirely sure how he did it but David Jacobs bagged two 40s amongst a host of fantastic fish from the Double Island swim. He had 8 carp weighing 43lbs, 42lbs, 35lbs, 33.8lbs, 32lbs, 24lbs, 22lbs and 19.8lbs and then a big cat 35lbs and everyone agrees that forms one hell of a catch report!
