Well managed two around the 1lb mark......and on the perch tackle :scratch:

Started with fine lines on the float with single casters....the rudd hammered the bait in the coloured water......

After 30 tiddles......and with the perch switching on, removed the 1.1lb bottom and fished straight throught with whole large lobs on a size 10.

Hey presto!!!! Crucian's :laughs:

The local "bricky" used to give us 2lb+ fish quite regularly, along with Tench to high singles.

Then some useless fookin t**t thought it might be a good idea to introduce.... well you know :no:

:laughs: :laughs: They would string me up, very proud of their Crucians at Eye Kettleby fishery Ash :grin:
According to the EA bailiff who tends to turn up at Kettleby unannounced, it is not a true Cru but the owners beg to differ!

Well another cruican session done, two around the pound mark is the best I could get before the heat took hold and the fishing died. :roll:

But some interesting results on the perch front on deadbaits :grin: (note their are no pike or zander present in this lake)
