hi mate i am planning on going to the same lake for a week in may could you tell me what the carp and cat were caught on and for the cat what size hooks and what pound hooklength line did you use also any other tips about baiting up e.g. pellets or boilies thanks

@dan020394 Hello mate! The Catfish came out on livebaits, but also respond well to massive chunks of luncheon meat (Like half a tin) fished on hair rigs! Tackle wise for the cats, get onto the catfish pro website and get yourself some 40lb Catlink Kevlar hooklength material and size 1/0 barbless eagle wave hooks,nothing can beat them. Rigs wise for livebaiting fish either polyball rigs at varying depths or dumbell rigs if the fish are showing near the surface!

Bloody hell boys, that's a beast. Nice to see people are putting more of a focus on looking after the fish too.

Good shizzle.
