The Genesis year

[gillcover]

Well thats about it for us at Genesis lake for this season , with our last anglers leaving on the 8th October . As for the catches we've had during the past 7 months we have had 427 carp from 10 to 20 lbs ,545 20 to 25 lbs, 161 25 to 30 lbs and 58 30 to 38.11lbs banked .The year started with Darren , Alan, Pete and John back in April with an impressive (just under) 3 1/2 tons, the lions share going to Darren with 72 carp to mid thirties, that set a record. Another record was set during May with Gerard landing a 38 lb Mirror, well done that man. Things slowed a little in June/July with just 18 carp over 30 lbs being caught and 32 between 25 and 30 lbs . August was quiet with just two weeks booked and 8 anglers on the lake, still managed to bank 7 carp to the mid 30's 6 from 25 to 30lbs and 66 20 to 25's . September came with 5 to the mid 30's 22 to 25 /30lbs and 67 20 to 25 's. Now last year (2010) we had a German guy fishing the lake he then set a new record with a mirror carp of 36 lbs well he came again this year (same week) and done it again. 72 Carp 14 of which were over 30 and up to 38lb.11 oz we feel thats a great end to this season for us here at Genesis Lake , We would like to say well done to all those carp anglers who visited us and look forward to seeing you all again in the future. Best wishes to all from Eddy and Val ,,,O and Minyon the bivvy cat(mouser extraordinaire)

Hi Kim Iain

how are you 2 doing it has been good this year for us, met great people

and had a few laughs on the way. It was a good lazy summer day wasn't it . I think one that has to be repeated. Lets hope next season is a special one for all of us.

 

Hi Gaz well we'll have the quiet but plenty of work to do around the lake

so no rest just yet , maybe I'll let Val have a day off sometime in late December
