<\/strong>“Fishing was hard as we had some bad frost’s, down to -6c. \u00a0There were still fish moving , but they were not interested in feeding much.<\/p>\n

I took along a small ABU bait casting outfit for a bit of fun if the fishing was slow & I caught a small jack pike. I changed to a small red and white jig head and hooked up first cast into something big, which I first thought was a massive pike. \u00a0But it was pulling back too much for a pike so I thought that maybe it’s one of the cats.<\/p>\n

I was well sup prised to see its was a mirror carp when I got it to the surface. \u00a0The jig must have landed right in front of it on the bottom because as as soon as I started to retrieve it went tight.<\/p>\n

I had never heard of this happening before, but when Mehdi came to take photos, he said he had heard of it before but not with a fish of this size. \u00a0It’s a first for me and will probably never happen again. \u00a0Bloody amazing!”<\/p>\n
