Batchworth Original Tod Hunter with an old warrior from Batchworth. An original mirror carp weighing in at 24lb 3oz. Batchworth Big Mirror 37lb 9oz Batchworth continues to fish well into winter, with three fish over 20lb being caught in the last few days. The big mirror known as “angry” graced Wayne’s net over the weekend at 37lb 9oz. Wayne’s on great form lately bagging some absolute crackers. The Queen goes forty! Batchworth lake regular Wayne got in touch early Sunday morning to say he had something very special in the net I may be interested in. Bailiffs Al West and Jason Poolman met me there to witness the weighing, we ensured my fresh set of reubens scales were zeroed perfectly and officially weighed the queen at a new top weight of 40lb and 10 oz. Her last known capture was by bailiff Dan Squire on September 8th this year at 36lb 5oz, so shes been feeding a LOT! Despite what some might say, Batchworth is a great winter water, this being the eleventh carp out in the last seven days. Huge well done, and certainly well deserved capture for Wayne, the queen of the lake is now Wayne’s PB. Despite the crap weather, Wayne still received a bucket of water over his head for the PB capture. Tyron Came Billet Common caught off the Surface Alfie with a lovely Billet Lane common that was caught on the surface with a little help from dad. Golf Course South – Mirror Carp Graham Raven with this lovely example of a South Lake mirror carp. This one weighed in at 15lb on the nose. River Colne @ Denham – Chub Jack caught this lovely chub on float fished maggot on a whip and light tackle. Golf Course, North Lake – Pike Adrian Kosikowski Caught this lovely Pike from the North Lake using a soft lure. Knightscote Pond – Rudd Leo Huggett caught this specimen sized rudd while float fishing at Knightscote Pond. River Colne, Rickmansworth – Perch Paul Charles caught this lovely 2lb 14oz perch caught on trotted maggot on the last day of the season (14th March 2017). South Lake Common Carp Mark Jacobs has hit gold again having his second fish of the session this time a new PB common from the south lake. This stunning fish tipped the scales at 15lb 12oz. Congratulations !!!!!!! Load More
