Additional Info: Forty-five-year-old Louis Laundrie was the fortunate captor of the carp known as ‘The Simon Harris Fish’, which he landed from the Second Point swim on the popular day-ticket water. “I arrived at midday on a Tuesday to find the lake pretty full but was over the moon to discover the swim I wanted free,” the Middlesbrough based carper told us. Deciding to only have a slight lead around, Louis settled for a clearer spot in amongst the Canadian weed at 14-wraps range. Flicking a rig and around 50 free offerings to the area. Around 24-hours later, his alarm signalled a take… “The fish got caught up in masses of weed, which led to a pretty uninspiring fight,” he said. “That didn’t matter, however, when I looked in the net and was told what fish it was – Kingfisher’s biggest mirror carp.” A UBB washed out Cell corkball pop-up over AM Baits Bounty Hunter boilies was the winning feed for Louis on this occasion – top work!
