Fellow fishermen and women,

The first two groups of the season have been and gone and the Kingfisher and Lac Lucie have produced big hauls of carp as predicted.

The Kingfisher lake presented Ben Hollis with 910lbs of carp in the course of a week's fishing and the biggest weighed-in at 45lbs:

Over at Lac Lucie, Raymond and Ian Porteus Landed over 1,500lbs of carp and two small cats to top up on a perfect fishing trip:

The very first catfish of the season went to Peter Sanderson over on Kingfisher Lake, which weighed-in at a whopping 91lbs 14oz:

The new season having started at full swing due to the added stock, double take seems to be the norm as you can see, Russell our first client of the season hits into a 42lbs and a 36lbs at the same time.
