Moroccan Carping: Real Pioneers Part I
As ever, your feedback is appreciated.
Part two is written and ready, and will be released next week!
Now that our season is upon us (the first guests at Etangs Des Papillons arrive today), it’s time to pull off the lake and hang up my rods for a while…well, a few days at least.
I fished my last session on Rouge on Tuesday night and had another 4 runs. Of these, one broke my […]
After a blank on Thursday night, where i got snapped up by a catfish (to be expected on light mono hooklengths) and pulled out of another fish, i made amends early on Friday evening. Reasoning that the warm SW wind might have dragged the fish far up into the shallow water to my left i […]
Well, after an easter break in Barcelona I was itching to get back on the bank, so despite having had only 4 hours sleep aboard the night train home to Limoges, and pouring rain outside i managed to catch a window of dry weather and race down to the lakes. Just as I got the […]
I have to mention the stunning capture of this 83lb 8oz catfish by David ‘Pooch’ Newsham on tuesday night. Pooch was fishing with me after helping out down at the lakes during the day, and picked up this beast just around sunset.

Due to uni and other commitments i only got to fish another 4 nights - but all arriving after dark and leaving at sunrise.

Still, better than kipping indoors!
Despite the previous night’s success, the few hours i fished this evening were a total blank - not even a beep, nor a hedgehog.
There are still fish showing, and i think perhaps it’s time for a wee change…
A fantastically clear afternoon, led to an equally clear and beautiful night. In between, exactly in between as it happened, this 28lb 10oz carp took off with my Shellfish boillie and fought hard all the way in to the net. Although that was my only Carp of the session (alongside a couple of Bream), it […]
