Richworth

TYPE OF BAIT: xlr8 boilies,Baitzone particles.
WHY YOUR FAVORITE: despite only very recently joining Richworth the xlr8 grabbed my attention straight away, the rich meaty and spicy smell screams big carp, in the short space of time ive used it the baits allready helped me bank a couple including one stunner only caught twice in 10 years!! Tiger nuts and hemp also play a massive part in my summer fishing and the Baitzone ones are super.
HOW TO USE BAIT: PVA bags are my favourite method at present using the excellent Gardner ones, crumb up some whole xlr8 boilies and mix with the xlr8 pellet and a few Baitzone bloodworm pellets to get a lovelly smelling trap of food.

a new set of daiwa 6000t and my jag sharpeners and excellent jag buzz bars and banksticks

SET UP : the one for the job
PLACE TO FISH : linears hardwick/manor, my current water.
SWIM: the split on hardwick.

After catching hardwicks big fully scalled mirror back in 2003 and good old Roy Parsons had done me the pictures i named the great beast Jordan due to the up front shape of the fish and the fact its a stunner! the name has stuck ever since.

i suppose catching 4 winter 30s way back in 2000 from linears manor farm including my target the random linear at 33lb a week before xmas. My first redesmere winter carp in 1999 in February when fishing with good friend gaz fareham was also a very enjoyable. My recent capture of a 39lb 2 oz lake record staffordshire mirror carp, a high point in 2011.

TIP 1: try to arrive in the dark as rolling carp can be easily located with a sharp ear.
TIP 2: keep looking and active as much as possible
TIP 3: always carry some floaters in the summer and a bag of tutties in the winter

to carry on enjoying my current fishing on my new water in the northwest and be pro active in the promotion of Richworth baits and to help junior anglers in their search for carp. Also a few trip to linear to bank a few more oxfordshire stunners.My current syndicate waters proving to be enjoyable and with regular baiting with K-G-1 i'm getting amongst the fish. With the winter on its way i'm targeting a stunning local 30 plus fully scaled and will be giving the new dark red tutties a good go! As well as this i'm currently writing a guest chapter in a very special book out in 2012, as well as some more filming for richworth. As an update I've just landed a local stunning near fully scaled mirror so over the moon with this capture.
