Another Epic Week

By Barry Plummer and Simon Watson on 7 November 2016

We had yet another stunning and epic week at Oakview Lake. 6 beautiful carp caught, 3 PBs and Simon caught the second biggest fish ever caught at Oakview at 47lb 14oz. Thank you so much for letting us fish this week. We have had a lovely time enjoying your kindness and hospitality and we can't wait to come back next year. Baz, Dawn, Simon and Julie xxx.

Fishing spots: 2 carp caught on back left of island, 1 fish caught on back right of island, 1 fish caught in mid water on right and 2 fish caught in mid water on left.

Catch: 3 x 40s to 47lb 8oz and 3 x 30s to 39lb. PBs broken 3 times.

A curiosity: Barry's first PB came exactly a year to the day after catching his previous PB at Oakview. Simon caught a 41lb 12oz mirror on the same day too. Simon's fish is the same fish that Barry caught as a PB exactly a year ago at 37lb 11oz.
