50lb Carp Landed at Villefond – & It’s All On Film!
March 18, 2012
One of the Villefond Big 5 Carp has just become the lake’s latest 50lb’er. Our cameras were there to capture the whole sequence as angler Rob Inns banks his first 50 – ‘Bennetts’ at 51lb 1oz. This is why we go carp fishing!
I know the list seems endless, but if you start organising things early it should all fall into place ready for your day of departure. Make your list as early as possible and tick it off as you go.
Here are the lists I use;
