The big girls are certainly on the munch; we have two UK sixties in this week’s Carp-Talk! The largest of which is a new sixty for Cambridgeshire, a 64lb mirror landed by Lee Marshall. Also in on the sixties act was David Pendegrass, who landed a gold-rated Most Wanted 60¾lb mirror from his Kent syndicate. Besides the two UK sixty-pounders, we also have a fantastic story from six-year-old Landon Pepper, who landed a 63lb common from Parco Del Brenta in Italy. Numerous UK fifties were also caught this week, with one of the most stand-out captures coming to Roger Bacon, who topped a 54-fish catch from Grenville’s Lake with a 53lb 14oz mirror.

We have the full round of from Round Five of the BCAC qualifiers as well as a special full page review of the awesome new line from ASSO Fishing Line. Mainline’s Callum Boyle recalls a recent social fishing trip which saw him land a personal best common. Nash cameraman Lewis Porter visits the famous Angling Projects Lake in the Colne Valley and bags himself a new PB off the surface while our very own Simon Crow is back with the second part to his Spitfire Pool feature.
