Third new lake and French record Brown back sturgeon!, 1st Apr

Yesterday morning, after a 45 min fight, Jamie Goodman has caught the biggest ever Brown back sturgeon of France at 70lb 2oz!

This is the first ever 70lb brown backed of France, a new lake record and a new personal best! His father Paul Goodman has also broken his Pb with another one of 62lb! They were fishing with big Halibut pellets from "La Pointe" swim.

Chapeau bas and congratulations!

Fantastic new lake record!, 1st Apr

On Thursday 27 April, at 11pm, Mr Paul Goodman has landed a huge mirror at just under 70lb!

At exacty 69lb 8oz, he broke the previous Lake record caught last October 2005 of 65lb. He broke his Pb 3 times: 34lb 8oz, 42lb 8oz and 69lb 8oz! He had also his PB sturgeon at 62lb!

Hook n°6, pop'up off a big bed of boilies, partiblend, pellets and groundbait has been used to catch the carp.

There are 2 other bigger carp in the lake, so we can probably expect one or two other massive mirrors of 70lb!

Congratulations Paul!

Twice Lucky at Laroussi!, 1st Mar

Wayne Naylor on his second trip to the fabulous Laroussi venue in northern France, and on only his second visit to France, does it again by landing his second sixty from the lake.

The massive mirror which tipped the scales at a whacking 63lb 2oz picked up Wayne’s tiger nut boilie fished with rapid breakdown pellets and just five free offerings, from the ‘Le Chene swim’ - the same peg that was the scene of his success last time round.

The take came at 2am during freezing conditions on March 17th with strong northerly winds that saw thermometer dip to around -5°C. With the water itself barely getting above 4°C, the fishing has been hard to say the least and this fantastic fish has so far been the only carp of the trip. He has however, banked two sturgeon of 47lb & 57lb from the same mark.

Yorkshire based carper Wayne, had previously landed his first sixty of 63lb 8oz during his first ever trip to France in October last year. During the same session his fishing partner Glenn Swaby beat the Laroussi record with another giant mirror of 65lb. Christened ‘Mr Sixty’ by lake Owner Mehdi Daho the carp is the first of the year at the venue.

What a start to the season!
