General Comments:

This was our second trip to Boux. The week started off slow then Monday afternoon it really turned itself on. Others spoke of a rat problem but we didn't see one all week. We left on the Friday afternoon and Angling Lines were really helpful with changing our ferry times etc. All in all a very enjoyable week.

3 x 40 biggest 46lbs mirror, 11 x 30lbs including 37lbs 8oz Grassy, 24 x 20lbs carp including a 23lbs grassy and a 20lbs tiger carp, and 26 upper doubles including an albino koi. Total weight was 1436lbs
