Catching Wary Carp off the Top
Thursday, 28 May 2015
First 48 Hours Session of the Year - May 2015 Hendre Lake, St. Mellons. Cardiff
Early hours came and despite having no sleep the night before due to the stress of loosing the carp I managed a couple of hours and was up at the crack of dawn watching the mist rise from the lake, The sun was coming up and again it was set to warn up. Lets hope they wanted to feed before it gets too hot again. I changed all the rods over to the new baits with stringers attacked and set them out first thing again with one on the bay. Within 30 minuets of setting the new bait out my rod ripped off and was awarded with another. Within 20 minuets of me landing mine and returning it Johns Rod Jumped into action and he was again rewarded with a a nice common of 14lb 6oz.

F.A.W. Members Preparing for the W.C.C
by Martyn Russ
With the Welsh Carp Championship fishing competition just around the corner and the first round set to kick of on the weekend both Brian Chandler and Dean Curtis, admin of Fishing Adventures Wales and Bailiffs at Hendre Lake, Cardiff, have been getting in a few hours here and there catching some lovely carp off the top in the sunny weather. With such a mild winter and warm start to spring we have seen the carp waking up earlier than usual and seem to be feeding quite confidently.
Knocked out in the first round last year, Brian & Dean are determined to do well during the competition this year and have been getting in as much practice as they can on their local water. Fishing Adventures Wales would like to wish them all the best and lots of luck during the comp and hope they bank some nice bug bars of gold. We will be following the competition and the results of each contestant during the next couple of months so watch this space......
The welsh Carp Championship is Sponsored by Fox and many other fishing tackle and bait companies with some amazing prizes up for grabs. It is a pair competition so if you didn't manage to get entered this year then make sure you get on the list next year as is set to become bigger and bigger each year with the amazing prizes getting even better, if that’s possible!
