Upper Tamar Thirty!

by | posted in: Carp Fishing, Sidebar | 0

Still on a role after winning the £3500 Pallatrax Pairs Open in September Karl Yates has banked one of our newly stocked fish from Upper Tamar Lake. Karl caught the sparsely scaled mirror at 36.08. The fish was stocked in early September along with another 25 Carp including 3 over 30lbs and 15 fish over 20lbs. Its great to see the fish doing so well and it has gained 1lb in weight since stocking. As it stands this is the largest fish caught from Upper Tamar for several years, although there are larger in the lake! It’s a new PB for Karl beating his previous best by over 12lbs. The fish fell to a Mainline wafter with a 4oz Hex lead from Westcountry Leads. Congratulations to Karl who has been rewarded for putting some time in at the venue and well done to his young son Alfie for taking the pictures.

(Below)Jason McEvoy and Leanne Rule have been back on the banks at Upper Tamar lake landing a few fish. Leanne banked the first of their four fish at 16.02 and the Jason managed the next three fish with commons of 10.00 and 14.02 and one of our newly stocked fish, a mirror of 20.02. The fish fell to either mirage baits king crab boilies or Marcus Watts scopex and pineapple.

A Kracking 41lb carp

(Above)Damien Chambers, 31 from Southport caught a 24lb Mirror and a Personal Best hard fighting 33lb Mirror from the Main Carp Lake , he was after his 1st ever 30 and he caught it!! Both Carp were caught on Inception Boilies.

Julie Kingsman, 56 from Peterborough has a pretty special story because recently Julie received a phone call from the Post Code Lottery to tell her she’d just WON it!! Julie literally couldn’t believe it, she’d never even dreamed that she’d ever win, and it wasn’t until the T.V Crew turned up with Jeff Brazier to present her with the Cheque that it truly sank in!! After winning Julie thought what better way to spend some of her winnings than to treat her friends to a Holiday at Anglers Paradise and that is what she did! Julie booked 3 Villa’s for her and her best friends and had a week of making memories including Julie catching a Personal Best 20lb Common from the Main Carp Lake which won Fish Of The Week!!

(Above)Steve Elsbury, 34 from Holsworthy has been putting in the hours fishing Nirvana’s Kracking Carp Lake in the mission to beat his previous Personal Best 38lb Common that he caught from the Lake back in June…Well, the saying – “Good things come to those that wait…or bait!!” – is TRUE!! Steve has only gone and beaten that 38lb Common with a 41lb Mirror known as the ‘Z FISH’ as it has a Z Scar on it’s side.
Steve said – “After many a thoughtful night, I finally managed my second personal best carp from Anglers Paradise. The fish fell for a cr1 pop up fished over a large bed of cr1 boilie, hybrid curve shank hooks holding strong as always.”

A Handsome carp and a future game that will save you having to get cold and wet!

by | posted in: Carp Fishing, Coarse Fishing, Sidebar | 0

5C’s Member Jordan Whitfield, 21 from Exeter jvisited Anglers Paradise for a session on the Main Carp Lake for the last Syndicate Weekend of the year and caught this stunning 21lb 2oz Fully scaled Mirror and a mid-double.

Jordan caught the fish from the Little Point Swim with Mainline Cell Wafters casted towards the Boat House Island with scattered boillies over the top.

Not my idea of fun but if you fancy a bit of armchair fishing this new game could be of Interest. The details below come direct from Zenia at Anglers Paradise. I would rather fish in real paradise but I guess this way you wouldn’t get cold and wet.

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR ANGLERS PARADISE TO BE IN A GAME COMING OUT IN 2018!

A NEW Game that will be an App called ‘Tight Lines Game’, will be coming to us all to play in 2018 AND Anglers Paradise are going to be one of the many Fisheries on it to fish VIRTUALLY!!

THE MAKERS OF THE APP SHARED WITH US –

“At the beginning of a Tight Lines game each player is given a tacklebox, fishing licence and landing net, and also selects two of the four hook baits available. It is up to the players to manage their tackle box, adding and removing items as strategy or conditions dictate. There are not enough tackle box compartments to carry everything that a player might need throughout a game, so keeping a good balance of items is important #tipthescales. Also, if #bobthebailiff catches you without a required item such as a licence, or with an illegal one like a banned bait, the penalties could be severe – unless you bribe him of course!”

The Tight Lines #fishtheworldapp #comingin2018 will feature ANGLER’S PARADISE @anglersparadisedevon. One of my favorite places to enjoy a fishing holiday, Angler’s Paradise boasts of 30 lakes, luxury accommodation, and most importantly a wonderful variety of stunning fish. Carp to 50lbs, #welscatfish to over 80lbs, #goldentench, #grasscarp, #goldenorfe, #koicarp and many more.

What an awesome set of “Fish on!” cards this venue will have. #coarsefishing #familyfishing #carpfishing #fishingholidays #kickstarter #thefishinggame #tightlines.”

THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING US AND WE FOR ONE CAN’T WAIT TO PLAY IT WHEN WE CAN’T GO FISHING FOR REAL!!
