Then Shoulders made another appearance in a matter of days, justas it did earlier in the season. The overjoyed captor this time wasPaul Radford of Bracknell. Having arrived on the lake earlier thatday Paul found a group of fish in Church bay. Paul quietly placed acouple of baits in the edge of the bay out of the swim known as’Phils’ corner’. Literally within 30 minutes of the baits beingpositioned one was away and after a short but dramatic tussle paulbank his first fish from Horton – What a way to start !

Horton regular Colin’Gaylord’ Nash tempted the Parrot from the Salt Circle Swim at 40 lbsand ounces on a Carp Company Ice Red Boilie with Cranberry.
