Deano returns

11/03/2008 by Mike Inkster.

The man who caught the 25lb’er has returned in an effort to catch the elusive 32lb fish that we know is lurking somewhere in the Old Lake and was caught once last year.

Deano didn’t manage it this week but he did catch a couple of very good ‘Commons’ - not huge but very nicely formed - a bit like myself! He also had a personal first by landing a 4lb Grass Carp which must be one of the small ones we put in nearly three years ago. The biggest of our grass carp is around the 15lb mark so you’ll know you’ve got a fish if you hook into that one.

The lakes have been battered by the winds over the last two days so there has effectively been no fishing but we don’t seem to have sustained any real damage althought the stables on the way in have been completely destroyed. The girls who own them have just finished putting a new roof on and paiting them all - they are understandably devastated. If you see them on your way in, give them a wave as they attempt to rebuild what’s left.
