BIG CARP / ON THE WATER
NOVEMBER 2026
THE CONCRETE JUNGLE
FROM THE WATER
First came a 30lb common which was soon followed by this relic of a carp,
when it hit the surface, I was a right old mess but thankfully she didn t really
do too much and I soon scooped her up in the waiting net! this was on one
of the main carp I joined the Wharf for and having already caught Ebz it s
just the big fully to go to complete the big 3 ..that being said although the
lake is full of incredible carp so I m hoping the big fully eludes me so I can
carry on fishing the concrete jungle!
Two amazing Fullies caught in a few days this one a truly mind-blowing
carp with more than a few stories to tell, I m sure! When I joined last year,
I said to everyone it would be my absolute dream to catch one of the big
fullys from the lake, and after seeing it for the first time cruising around
during our filming trip in May it made me more determined than ever!
These old carp aren t around forever and whilst arriving late and not getting
the rods out until the early hours isn t something I would usually do, in this
instance I definitely WOULDNT have caught this carp without putting that
extra effort in!
