Was on cottington last weekend, lake christine and saturday morning at 7.15 my first carp of 2005 a 14.08 mirror followed 40 mins later by a 14lb common. Not a bad way to start the year, i can only hope the sizes get bigger and bigger and bigger. Both fish were caught on matrix indian spice with a 6 bait stringer.

Well done mate, bet you were pleased with that as Christine has fished slow for weeks, have you tried Pepper Lake yet as those fish have packed on the weight and have been coming out all winter and every other fish seems to be a twenty

I guess it's the same old reason too, now that Christine has become an established venue and Pepper is relatively new with regards to the Carp stocks.

Your dead right alan, i did go and try pepper and every 3rd fish was a 20. so i've finally beaten my winter demons , i can only hope next winter is better than this one.
