Today I had one of the most amazing catch reports from France that I have ever heard of.
Two anglers who I won’t name, have just done a week at a lake (that I won’t name) and went through 60k of our bait (crazy in November) but what they landed will take some beating!
4x40s
20x50s
10x60s
4x70s to 78
And one 20 pounder 😂

In November…….and they didn’t fish 24/7
Sting hookbaits and squids helped them
And this isn’t rainbow lake or anywhere like that!
Two very good underground anglers who both agreed it probably won’t happen again!
I am allowed to share photos of one of them on our social media 😂

It’s one hell of a carp
I reckon it may come out again before Xmas and it may well be on a handcraft hookbait 😂

Some fish that common. Guy on my club lake caught it few months back. Your hookbaits certainly catch them 👏

Another U.K. 60 came out today on the sting
61lb 3oz waterside common……..he had the only two bites of recent times and both of them on the little 12mm yellow perils!!
Hence they are all out of stock again 😂😂
Back in stock middle of the week
That common is Incredible!!

Evening all, been a while since i looked in on you 😂
Plenty going on at HC and weirdly we just had the most orders ever in a weekend. I would expect that in April not late October into November!
Some lovely carp being caught but I’m not gonna post them here as they just disappear 😂😂

Not used the freezer baits but the shelflife are soft enough and crumb up easily

What are the shelfies like those of you that use them? Are they much harder than the freezer baits?
