Dobbo managed to get on the swim at Gingerbread he has wanted to try for Carp and it paid off, after a couple of hours he managed to hook into a very nice Mirror of 34lb 12oz on fake corn over a bed of sweet corn,. pellet, crushed Kream Krunch boilies, condensed milk and Kream Krunch Glug.

A good job he had his bait boat as casting to the margins on the far bank is very difficult with the over hangs that are there.

A new PB for Dobbo and a fish he will always remember, his lucky mascot ““Lucky” picture on the previous blog has done it again.

He added another fish to the bank later in the day, again on fake corn was a nice Tench of between 6lb and 7lb, all in all a very good day and he will certainly be fishing the Steps Swim in the Deep Bay area again in the near future.
