Mark started one of those new Sandhurst winter tickets in December. He's had a few already, biggest one Niges at 44lb+ S2.

Both Andy.
But if the S2 had caught all the fish in my lake, over and over again. It would be an F1.

Thanks for getting back Mark. I'm the one from Wales 
Already have loads of confidence in the gpb1s I used on my last session but fancied the sound of the s2 for the winter. Will probably stick both out and see which they prefer. Don't get on the bank anywhere near as often as I'd like but it's nice to know I've got a stonking hookbait on when I do

That's good enough for me. It's a 3 hour drive so I need to know at least there are fish in there still 
I had a tip off about another lake I've been interested in. But the biggun turned out to have been over exaggerated by 20lb and hadn't been seen for 10 years.
I've just bought myself a new set of reels for my distance rods and I yurning to fish somewhere I need to use them 
Anyway that's off topic. All hail the S2

Rock? If so, then yes, it's believed Single Scale has passed. Last of the original big 4. Still plenty of big fish in there though.

Best bet is never ask any questions, just get the ticket and go find out for yourself mate. PB's for you.

FishOn Joe finally posted everything he caught on that two night session just before Christmas. Incredibly, in 48 hours, he caught the biggest mirror in the lake, and three of the other most wanted.
No wonder he called it his session of a lifetime. Well done Joe, great angling. A mid 40 & three 30's.
"As the night drew on the storm got worse and worse, absolutely biblical conditions, after chatting with a few mates buzzing about my captures we all agreed I was due one of the lakes big girls. Well a few hours later a slow pull up on the hanger had me scrambling out of my brolly in the storms full force, picking up the rod the fish took me out into the middle of the lake, busting me on a tight clutch, stripping braid so fast when cupping the spool I could feel the heat coming off it!
At first I thought it may be a smaller fish covered in weed but as I drew it close I saw a huge dorsal flick up in the moonlight, straight in the net she went, the lakes big mirror Sparkie's Sister a true Essex relic."
44lb, GPB1 13mm balanced over the shops particle and crumbed Krill.
The other three

Quote... Is it just the camera angle, or has that fish got an unusual shaped mouth?
I have only seen that one photo of Will's fish. But I would say that you are correct and it has an unusual shaped mouth. I caught a carp from Roach which is the neighbouring pit. Spitting distance away from Rockford. It had the same shaped mouth and puffy cheeks. Roland (NemesisWitch) would know far better than me, but I would say that they are from the exact same stocking, likely brothers or sisters. Back from when the same angling club controlled both Rockford & Roach Pit.
This one in Roach had the same mouth. It's mouth was pristine, but a very strange shape. This fish was an S2 addict. I had it four times in eighteen months. This was the third time I caught it, on an S2, I caught it once on a F1 too.
