The cooler weather has finally encouraged the Carp to start feeding a bit more often with many good catches coming to anglers.
Andy Mendy took advantage in a carp match at Somersham Angling Club, not only winning the contest but gaining a lovely family fishing photo in the process.
Valius’s decision to brave the strong winds at Earith paid off with two Carp over 25lb while at Poachers Pool, also in Earith, Neil Owczarkowski landed five Carp, the biggest 29lb 6oz.
Jake Sellens and dad Paul had a bumper overnight session at Earith Carp Lakes, catching six Carp, one Tench and hundreds of small Rudd and St Ives Tackle Shop owner Mickey Bartlett struck gold with a cracking 2lb 5oz Rudd on the River Cam.
He said: “Cambridgeshire is a great place to have a go if you are after a specimen Rudd, especially on a lovely warm summers evening.”
