Hi Guys, just thought you may like to know some of your junior members are doing well. My son Charlie Putnam (age 6) caught this fish when we went to Little Park Lakes over the road from Howells. He had just put his floating dog biscuit out, I said to him keep an eye on your float while I get my rod together, immediately he said “dad I cant see my float”. I looked up and said to him to reel in a little, he did and his rod bent in to this! He was over the moon, he has caught carp upto 8lb before but this was he first double figure fish, and what a great PB for a 6 year old, a 16lb mirror carp (put me to shame anyway). Also big thanks to the guy and his wife for taking some pictures of us both.

Congratulations – Charlie has doubled his PB

The cost of day tickets on the C&B canal has now been reduced to £2 for under 16 year olds.  These were previously £3 in tackle shops and £4.50 on the bank.
