South Weald Country Park 1991

My first time I fished South Weald for carp I was lucky enough to have this lump. I think I did 16 odd days on South Weald. I only managed to catch three carp. I don't know what it is like to fish now, but it wasn't an easy water back in the day. It could be quite difficult at times.

 

One of my serious articles I wrote in Big Carp magazine years ago. I mentioned my brief fishing on South Weald. Though there was a misprint stating I was using 10ml intense sweetener, and not 1ml. I would of thought myself most serious carp anglers would of realised it was a misprint, but some never, and they were loading their baits up at South Weald with high levels of sweetener.....Lol....Sorry! That would just be far too sweet in a boilie mix.

 

We didn't realise how lucky we was years ago, fishing as become far too expensive for kids to go now. Even many adults I know struggle to go with the price of living now.
