I know mate obviously good and bad trips and area specific but when it's on it's on! Can see me doing another trip or two at some point. He was freelining from up a tree pulling the bait away from what he thought were 40s and 50s because there was one giant lurking at the back. 4 days later he finally allowed the biggest fish on the spot at the time to take it and it went 66lb and he thought that was a 50 at the most at the time, so what he'd been pulling the bait away from all week who knows, but the lure of that possible 80 at the back kind of forced him to refuse the others. Was up a tree all day like 10 hours in the rain, wasn't pretty but exciting he wouldn't come down, I did find the spot as well it was mega! Over a day a fairly small group would get through a full bucket 1ft from the edge, wish we had a go-pro.

Total fishing tackle and Johnson Ross both have Complex T in stock. There were quite a few others if you Google it. Johnson ross even do a bulk discount offer. https://johnsonrosstackle.co.uk/dynamite-frozen-boilies/18538-dynamite-baits-complex-t-bulk-frozen-boilie-deal-5kg.html

I know one venue that's up for sale for less than £300,000

Even if we did save the cash and became millionaires, what would the first thing we would buy?? a carp lake… you know it makes sense!

Don’t forget the carp anglers prayer… “dear lord, when I die, please don’t let the wife sell my carp gear for the price i told her I paid for it”

I can remember when Taverham Mills was sold, a 25acre lake, stretch of river, a house and I think another 20acres of land. The Carp Society put in a bid, but were outbid by Anglian Water with a bid for £1,000,000. Anglian Water managed to fence the lake trapping otters inside the fence. What irritated me is I had built the fence around the roadside and the woods at the back when I ran it and had no problems. Anglian Water ripped the fence down to rebuild it leaving it down for weeks, allowing otters to get in. Those same otters were getting the barbel and carp in the river before they got into the lake, so AW would have known otters were in the area.

When I was 19 a v large water near me came up for sale at 40k. I pleaded with the bank to lend me the money and of course they just laughed at me. Ten years later it was sold again for more than a million. I still haven't forgiven the bank 🤣
