@1970philc Cheers mate, they are looking gorgeous at this time of year aren't they! I think that anglers would normally be cutting their baiting down at this time of year, but I think with how mild the weather is that this isn't the case just yet. For example this particular session I used about 2kg of Solar's Chinese Take-away, 3kg mixed pellet, 3kg of hemp and about 3 pints of maggots.I was putting this in on a little and often basis throughout the session, even after darkness.keep em searchin

@QuickHitCarpin It's a Nash Carp Corral mate, but they were discontinued last year so they are no longer available in the shops

[@1970philc]

Well done Carl some nice looking fish in there winter colours . Are you still putting down big beds off bait or just on single hook baits?

[@KrazyCarper]

lovely chesnut colours and well done carl are they new rods or have i just not noticed them in previous vids. :)

@CarefulCarping Cheers for watching mate

[@sharpy01902]

@particlepete1 Cheers matey, I wouldn't like to say I consider that amount of bait as an average winter session but I don't really feel that we are truely experiencing winter conditions just yet. I like to feel my way into the session, and as I had 2 rods on the spot and had an early bite, i decided that with the conditions it was worth the chance. Whether I'd have caught more with less bait is debatable but in honesty I dont think it did any harm on this partiular session. hope that helps bud?

Cracking looking fish well done to all,does your mate always dress like a chav when he goes fishing Ha ha.

[@sharpy01902]

@KrazyCarper They weren't my rods mate, I had leant them from a friend to get a feel for the Free Sprit range, as I may be changing over to them very soon. I was wondering if anyone would notice ;) lol. Cheers mate
