He's 2 yrs old and coming on good. It's taken me a while to catch him, he's so quick and in a huge pond one chance is all I get.

Thats one nicely conditioned Mirror there MD :thumb:

I'm off for my usual Thursday fishing trip with my oppo tomorrow and are hoping the weathers as nice as today :cool:

There's a few bigger relatives of your baby in the lake we're going to, so hopefully there'll be some fun ;)
 
He's never seen a hook. In fact it's the first time I've caught him in the 2 yrs I've had him, He's got brothers in there as well but he's the biggest. Next on the catch list is one of the common and one of the crusian I have.

Good luck for your trip, I'm hoping for good weather but only cos I'm at work
 
Tiddler used to grew salmon to about 7-8lb in 2-2 1/2 yrs even had one that got up to over 30lb. Mind you that was on a fish farm :lol: :lol: Oh happy days.

Lovely looking fish.

I have 4 fish in my pond that are native to my garden. When I cleared my large pond and down sized there where 4 baby fish in the pond. I'm getting rid of my pond as it seams to be putting buyers off so Dad is rehoming my 7 fish in his pond. Will post some pic's when I get them out next weekend.

Have a good days fishing baz :thumb:

Maybe we should organise a match some time................

English Mirror carp found in most lakes and very few ponds Jim
Thanks Nick, BC's post now makes sense! :thumb:

That's nothing unusual, my post not making sense :wha:

I went out fishing today with my oppo and we had a magnificent day sat in the sun, it was really nice and warm, best day of the year so far, we went to a fishery just outside of Lancaster and had a few carp, both Mirror and Commons, a fun day :cool:

Heres my bag for the day, so beer time now :drinks: going to struggle to keep awake after tea, a goodly dose of fresh air and sunshine :cool:
