THE PERFECT ANTIDOTE!
There is no medicine quite like catching carp!
Dave Gostelow was fighting a serious case of man flu on his latest trip to the Monks Pit syndicate in Cambridgeshire, and with freezing winds also making life extra difficult, he appeared to be up against it from the very start.
However, he was soon feeling back on top form when he braced a fantastic 39lb mirror with another fish of 38lb, followed a short while later by a 32lb mirror.
“I was absolutely chuffed to bits with that result,” said Dave.
Dave went in with Crayfish wafters in solid bags of Crayfish Mini Mix pellets and Krill Meal and Insect Meal, which he fished over 5kg of his usual mix of chopped and crumbed Bug boilies soaked in Calanus Hydro, Bug Hydro Spod Syrup, Sweet Cayenne Pepper and Hot Hemp Oil.
