This is really starting to push the boundaries in terms of what's ethical imo.

I acknowledge that it's hypocritical of me to talk about ethics as an angler but surely the line has to be drawn somewhere? Where does it end?
C4's despite what the article says. 3.5 years old.

3C means 3 summers doesn't it? At 3.5 years old they'd not have seen 4 summers surely?

IMHO when the clowns 🤡 stop paying the money. No huge profit anymore, Without the demand there is no supply.
Carp fishing has created a monster driven by pot noodles, pounds and ounces.

A true victim of its own success.

If I had a 3 year old kid and fattened him up I would quite rightly be hammered by people
These fish cannot have a long life span as its like feeding a kid till he pops

RH did not give a **** when big rig died,he knew he already had the babies swimming around.Its just a conveyor system of big horrible looking fish that keep the cash coming in because the next pot noodle carper wants to catch a big pb for bragging rights

No one has to fish for these fish and people that do fish for them do so because that's what they want from there fishing. If it makes them happy and they enjoy there time out on the bank then that's all that should matter. I guess some people don't want to be travelling the length of the country or be on a waiting list for donkeys years to catch huge rare English carp. There is obviously a demand for the fisheries and the fish as a matter of fact I am sure Nash stocked some in his lake.

Not all youth want that. There's a lot of young lads who would love to fish on some of the dead man shoes lakes. Its the whole angling community who want there two seconds of fame catching a 50lber. Means as much to me as if it was caught in France. Absolute zero. No interest at all.
It's a Uk France venue full of characterless fish. Shame on the owner. But there is a market for it unfortunately.
