Quick update boys, Old jonsey in france has had a few so far...23M,21starburstM,then decided to fill it in with 50k of pellet and 10k of poacher raspberry boilies...Had 25M, lost and lump in the snags, This morning had 49.6M. Also lost another big M and has landed a stockie...... He needs more bait now!!

Top bombing by Jonesy !!! Chwarae Teg.

Mr Jones Hauling some carp ther mate well done, top honesty on the 49.6 could of become a 50 in the heat of the capture look foward to some tales when you get back to get me through the long blanks of the canal bank.

and a new avatar pic me thinks very soon.

He had another 32M last night, also missed one! In the worst storm he has EVER seen..... reckon he was tucked up in bed ! he reckons they are 'avin big time now so has decided to fish days as well as nights!!
about bloody time

Hot off the press jonsey is on 'em.. 30.6M today at 1pm. Got bit off by a large pussy! Then the 'long mirror' at 27.8 at 2.30 pm. fish all over him like a cheap suit! no one else really catching. 2 of his 'mates' aint had a fish all week

Evenin' all Well i've just got home after a near 700 mile treck to southern france but i tell you what my god is it worth it! Second time there and second time with the most and biggest fish of the week Although it didnt fish very well as the bigger brutes all seemed to be feeding on naturals In the end i managed fish of 23lb, 21lb, 25lb, 49lb 6oz (normally a 50lb fish but due to the time of year etc.... last came out at 54!), 18lb, 32lb, 30lb 6oz, 27lb 8oz, 16lb and finally a stockie at 13lb. All in all a really fun week with great hosts, great food. Paradise lakes is an awesome venue with some stunning scenery and mahoooooooooooosive carp in it, i was woken up during the night by fish crashing over 50 yds away The only down point of the week, apart from having to come home was 'loosing' a fish at the net due to some dumb bastard lunging at it and breaking the hooklink Sorry in advance but what a wanker!!! And to make it worse i recognised the fish from a photo and it hadn't been out for 2 years and was last weighed at 52lb!!!! F*$k me was i angry!!! Anyways catch up with you all on the dam wall soon, prob tomorow! Booked up to go back next october and will be taking names for 2010 in january should any of you wish to join me? My god did i mention that this place is awesome? I've got a brochure with the fish in that that bell end knocked off, got me all angry again

Good goin that my son! catch up with you soon, who was the dood doin the netting then? One of your lot or a bailiff from the water?

He was one of the lads with us If he had caught some fish i would think it was an accident but as he was struggling i really believe he did it on purpose

well done mate looking foward to hearing tales on the bank I am tempted 2010 I just can not believe even the biggest knobhead in the world would knock a fish off on purpose what a wa*ker well done again.

Thanks mate, i will be phoning adam 2nd jan 2009 to book the lake for march/april 2010 if anyones interested? Gotta be quick as there's a max of 6 anglers on there Price is £2000 for the lake for the week and 140 euros for the food package. There are a lot of rules that i'll go through with anyone whos interested when i next see you up the res. Tight lines
