Details: Linda makes a great start!

Angling Lines leading lady Linda Latham is taking a well earned break with us at the moment. Ever eager Linda turned up & had her rods straight out ... & within 2 hours landed this magnificent 42.09 mirror!

Liver B8 boilie fished over Halibut pellets, snowman rig & size 2 hook were the sucessful tactics. Caught just off the lilies in the Main Lake.

Linda flew here & hired our on-site tackle... so she certainly gave it an early test!

No doubt she'll have a few more befor she leaves

Details: Additional Stock Added !

Instead of the bright sparkling morning we had hoped for, Friday 23rd November was turning out to be a dull and overcast day with no good light to add a zing to our amateur snaps!

However, we were still enthusiastic and (reasonably) well prepared to receive our 85 mirror carp weighing an average of 17lbs each.

Our best fishing friends were on standby in their old kit prepared to get wet and smelly - they know the ropes by now. As the goal is to get the fish out of the oxygenated tanks and into the lake as quickly as possible - catching, counting and photographing these already stressed out animals turned the process into one that was impossible to choreograph gracefully.

After all the flapping and slapping and hurrying around was over, 60 had been put into the Main lake and 25 into the Lotus lake.

These additional fish should provide some good action whilst waiting for the biggies.... can't wait for the 2008 season to get underway!

Details: Ian Fox fishing Lotus Lake at Mas Bas

Ian Fox has really proved what Lotus Lake can produce. He was here at Mas Bas with Rachel for a weeks holiday during September. The weather was mixed, bit of light rain and a couple cloudy days interrupted a generally sunny week.
He caught 11 fish of which there were 4 x 40 lb mirrors the heaviest of which was 45lb, 3 x 30lb mirrors and 1 x 24lb and 3 upper double commons.
Needless to say he has broken his personal best a few times and definately wants to come back next year.

Details: Mas Bas stocking

Here are the details of recent Mas Bas stocking - 55 commons and mirrors all between 5 and 8 kilos (11 to 18lb). Should provide a bit of action while the anglers are waiting for the biggies
