An Update, 31st Jul

Following on from the last report...

Over the winter, Mehdi is working to remove all but one catfish from the lake. Mehdi reports that these big cats are hardly fished for but he will leave one of the largest ones for anyone wanting to pit their wits against it.

There are now between 1-3 sturgeon left in Laroussi and he doesn’t believe a single one has been caught in 6 weeks. Mehdi will continue to reduce as they are caught to leave just one.

Mehdi has also consistently removed any grass carp under 40lb. But is removing fewer and fewer as less are being caught so their numbers are really reduced.

Readdressing this balance should mean a very healthy stock of carp for years to come and the continuation of the big fish on the bank we come to expect at Laroussi.

Last week one angler had 12 carp with 8 of these being 40lb+ - an incredible average weight.

Catfish and Sturgeon Update, 22nd Jul

As mentioned in previous updates, Mehdi has been working hard over the last 12 months to re-address the balance of carp, catfish and sturgeon in Laroussi. We now believe there are three sturgeon left, the biggest one at 70lb+ and four big catfish left from 124-185lb (weights as last caught).

An Update, 4th Jun

We removed one sturgeon yesterday at Laroussi. So only 3 left and I will remove the others too.

So far, I removed only 12 baby catfish this season, so all that work is starting to pay now off now.
