Looking at some recent photos today on a rare day off this year where I'm not working or fishing. Some photos of that common off of my phone, that I've not even looked at previously.
The unhooking mat, is a Cotswold Aquarius Le Graviers XL mat. It's 4ft x 2ft. That common is def wider across the back than 1ft.
23lb scaly Thames fish laying in exactly the same mat for comparison.

That's a brute of a common! Looks like it could easily go bigger too.

It's definitely going to get bigger. It was 55 before spawning last year. 55 after spawning this. It has been a 6-7lb dropper after spawning previously. Everything in there is piling on the weight so fast. Im convinced this common was over 60 a few weeks before. Brutes, is a great description for the fish in there.
There's two mirrors that have always been bigger than her. All putting on a steady 5lb+ per year.
Incredible.

What's the wait like now, put an order in on the 11th?
Cheers, Alex.
Edit: scrap that they've arrived today. Many thanks, they'll be on the rods Saturday.

Hi, we are still sending parcels to Germany yes (3 this week). We have only had one problem where an employee marked the customs form wrong and said it was bait. That was returned.

Sam & Craig again. I imagine the blokes on their Yateley syndicate are wondering what the hell they are doing to be catching so many.

Ah sorry I stupidly read your original question wrong, I did not realise you wanted something different made. We will not be able to do any special/custom orders until at least October. No problem sending our normal products before then.
Sorry mate we are to busy until then to be able to do anything like that.
Regular European orders of 3 tubs or more, there is no extra postage, just order as normal from our website.

I'm looking to order some GBP1 & s2 Cc. How do they need to be stored - any special requirements?

Morning Mark.
I've got some of your GBP1 balanced, not had chance to use them yet as too busy working.
I've got a couple on the side drying out and getting firmer as a test. I'd like to mesh these babies up and leave them out. Question I'd like to ask you is, would air drying them for a week or so harm the precious garlic bacteria that you refer too? 🤔
