KORDA NEWS!
BIG PUSSY ON A LONGSHANK!
A recent three day carping trip to the River Ebro in Spain proved to be a little trickier than first anticipated due to spawning. Dispite ridiculous temperatures reaching 43 degree's, some carp still fed as the lads endured the heat, and they managed to bag a dozen fish each up to 28lb. The mass of activity from the carp had attracted the attention of many large catfish and it wasn't long before Brett hooked into a large specimen. After forty-five minutes the beast appeared in the margins and the fun was yet to begin, after many hilarious attempts at getting it in a 42" net they finally managed and the 165lb lump was landed. If ever you needed any proof that Korda hooks are up to the job then this is it! Brett was using a size 4 Long Shank x hook with a Halibut pellet on the hair, this was accompanied by a stick of crushed pellets soaked in Solar Slayer Oil. A four ounce Big Grippa was required to hold bottom, this was fished on a Korda lead clip on 15lb mainline.
Just 30 minutes after that one Brett bagged another chunk that weighed in at 115lb!!
