Perfect Pristine Carp

Here is my brother in law Steve and his second best ever catch at our favorite lake Gaff X in Kent. This is a pristine common Carp weighing in at 15.1lb and by the looks of it, this one has never (or hardly ever) been caught before. He caught this one on the surface with bread and it was the only catch on a very hard days fishing. His best by the way is 21lb, but we didnt have phone cameras back then.

Perfect! Matt would be proud to land such a gorgeous fish!

This 2lb 5oz Irish rudd is a personal best for me as my previous PB was 2lb 4oz! I think i should win because this fish was taken on a wild fishery, not one of these commercials which i am glad we do not have many in Ireland as i think they stop most fisherman from fishing and appreciating wild places as all they want is a 'fish a chuck'.

Re: How to enter this competition and use this forum area...

this is my son and his very first pike. Not only did he catch it himself but he had no hesitation in holding it. Once i had shown him how to hold it the right way. i then told him to be carful it might bite to which he then replyed if it bites me i will bite it back. The amazing thing about this is he is only 4 years old. This is shorly a good enough reason to win. but if not then fishing tackle is expensive enough so if he can win his own then it`s all good
