The weather took some beating today starting off with heavy rain and snow then strong gusting winds then hail stones. Carl fished the pole and pellet for small carp but a change to the paste at the half way mark brought him some better fish – 8lb finishing out in front with 66lb 14oz. 2nd placed Jonathan Turton fished the pole and pellet all match landing carp – 3lb.
A cracking day on Cavendish lake for the 6th round of the winter league.
