Turns out I am allowed to post these after all.

All balanced S2, with a small fermented tiger on top from last couple of weeks... All since he first tried the fermented maize, tigers & peanuts using the high fructose corn syrup I recommend on the fermented maize thread. This is only the biggest ones he has caught. He's absolutely ripped a pretty tough lake to bits to be fair.

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.

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.

Both GPB1
