Jamie Griffin Having spent the first 3 days of my French trip hearing fish elsewhere on the lake through the nights, I sat on my hands and waited for the wind change in the forecast. It finally came in on the Tuesday and I started catching that evening. This 64lb and new French PB mirror being the pick of my 7 fish for the week. Braced with a 39lb common with the bites only minutes apart I had over 100lb of carp in the 2 slings at the and time!
