Just to let you guys know approx 85% of the carp in the Trent and Mersey canal around Rugeley to Fradley in Staffs (about 8 miles of water) are 15lb and over!!!, just pick an over hanging bush, rushes or a tree on the far bank and your in, 4 out of my last 5 fish have been 20lb plus with the best 2 being 24-12, 24-8, best night ive had was 4 fish followed by 4 the following night.
Whats been suggested is a great idea, 3 of my friends and i have fished for canal carp for 15 years and we`re the only lads ever seen on there!! what a waste, its great to know we share a 4 miles stretch of water between us its like having you own syndicate and it costs £5 a year ha ha ha.
P.s also had Chub to 5lb Perch to 2lb 5 and Roach to 1lb 6.
VEEEERY UNDERRATED.
Have fun and lots of it.
