Think you might be missing the point about fishing a place that size mate.
There may be 40'S in there but ANY carp caught would be a result, if you are after that size of fish this venue is not for you. Just watch the Carl and Alex you tube video for the amount of effort you will need to put in to catch.

Ive watched both videos what carl and alex done on there, to be honest size doesnt bother me i was just curious if people had had them out to that size. Im more interested in the achievement of catching them out of such a large expanse of water.

I fished it for a couple of years 10-12yrs ago and photographed all the mirrors I caught just because they were rare. Seems funny now seeing that 37 mirror and the "big scaly" at the sizes they are now, when my album shows them at 11lb and 14lb lol. It's good fun with plenty of runs, but tricky getting through the cricket bats. My first year I managed 104 fish but think it's now a fair bit harder now they hardly pump any water out.
Still some nice fish to be caught though.
This one is the one Carl & Alex had at 37 odd:
And this is the big scaly at 14lb if I remember right:

This was a nice one too at 24.10 back then, but think it's been on the missing list for a few years.
