Fish stocking details

We managed to stock both QEII and Milkhope a couple of weeks ago with the following:

QEII approx 150lb of Mirror carp + a couple of ghost carp around the 3-5lb mark

Milkhope 150 Bream of varying sizes and 150 Tench 6 to 8 inches (15 - 20 cm).

Horton picks up

Roy Small and Jimmy Armstrong enjoyed a good day at Horton last week catching roach to 6 oz

Anyone fancy tackling some French carp?

A recent trip to France for one member resulted in some great sport on the pole during a fun session but on the serious side the lake also yielded a 46lb mirror carp caught on a simple hair rig and coconut 16mm boilie topped with maize.
