I’m off to fish Barston Lakes on Saturday! It’s not my preferred venue, but any day spent fishing is better than a day at work. How would you describe your perfect lake? Mine would be one that is fairly wild, few anglers and a low stock of old Carp.

So I spent the day on the Elavate Baits stand ! Really good to speak to customers and pass on some knowledge … anyone else at the show ??

Please tell me this is a photoshopped picture, or maybe AI?

Yesterdays planned coffee morning was somewhat of a disaster because of technical issues, but Craig and I eventually had a great catch-up, and talked about all sorts of Carp related subjects! I hope to have any technical problems sorted before next time! Thanks @Craig Pauley, it was great to catch-up mate!!
