Thanks Mark - totally agree. Total confidence in the hookbaits and feed - not getting close enough it is.

And this funny old weather - roasting clear bright days and near scraping freezing nights/early mornings. Lake isn't fishing too well at all.

I’m sure you know already… Spring is all about getting near them Andy. They are always grouped together at this time of year. If you are not catching within a few hours with our hook baits in spring… Move. There’s no carp near you. I know it’s not always possible to move these days on busy lakes… But that’s always the answer if you can.

Once you get near the pack, you’ll start clumping them.

Some great captures there. Always really appreciate a big dark common like that 39lber.


Wish this Andy was getting on the fish anywhere near as well.... having a right old struggle start to the year, zero fish for 8 sessions now

I am glad they are working well for you all. Will be back early next week. Can't say I've missed you all that much haha, it's absolute bloody paradise here, we don't ever want to leave!

We are completely up to date with all orders up until just a few hours ago. We are so stupidly busy now to completely unprecedented levels for us. For the first time since our expansion last year, the two week waiting time is back in full effect from now. This is only on certain products, most orders will still be going out within days.

Me and a friend fished a club pit this weekend, I hadn’t been there for 12 years and he did one trip last year, both on the complex’s other lakes. Went on the big pit and caught the only two fish this weekend by the sounds of it. Both only 13lb mind you but one on an S2 and the other on a GPB2.

I had three fish to 31lb overnight on the GPB1s. Still haven’t used the Hutchys in my bag because I love the old GPBs too much

We are still very much alive 😂. No tourist boats or earthquakes. It's so stunning here.

We are up to date with all orders. I just sent all of yesterdays orders through to work via WhatsApp. If you need to get hold of us regarding an outstanding order please only use WhatsApp for the next ten days. It's free.

Russ with one of Essex finest over 40lb. The one he desperately wanted. Fizz S2 over Essential Kraken.
