James Butcher I done 3 nights for nothing the lake was fishing very slow only see a couple of fish show the first night when i arrived late after work so cast out to a couple of clear spots in the weed and got a decent drop got the house up and put the kettle on weather looked spot on for a bite , nothing happen the 1st night but the 3rd night carp began to show over my spots and i was feeling confident so much so i found it hard to get to sleep i had a few liners that night and at one time even had my boots on at 4am in the morning. well sleep got the better of me and i finally got my head down, the 4th evening i see a couple of decent fish show over a spot and they fizzed up so i reeled in and put a pineapple juice pop up on and cast past the fish and reeled in to when my lead was near the fizzing and let it drop down on a tight line to feel if it was decent drop which i was surprised it wasn't to bad and got some dinner on. it was dark by now and after the lack of sleep the night before i was soon pushing zzz as it was my last night i did not get up to 7am and put the kettle on and see a couple show over where i cast the single over the bubbers the night before then a fish head and shoulder over the spot next minute the rod pulled down and i was in after a good battle she lay in the net Guzzler at 42lbs and the rest is history happy days.
