A great session at Bluebell Lakes and a new UK PB!

 

I had a great 48 hour session at Bluebell lakes with my father-in-law and my mate Mark.

 

The lake isn’t easy and we all struggled to get going, but over the course of the session I managed to land 5 fish (from 7 bites) for a total of 84lb including a magnificent (new UK PB) twenty pounder:

Mark had one Carp (over 20lb) and three Tench - we won’t mention the duck he caught or the tree branches Winking smile

    Nice looking fish Matt. Good work if you managed to get past the Bream.
    What did you catch them on?

    Didn't have a Bream between us (Mark had 3 Tench).

    The fish were on New Grange or Cell fished over a gravel patch. Although I did have one to Fruitella pop-up on the far margin.
