i jus started fishing last year and i can remember my first carp it was a small one but i was so pleased with wat i had caught now i have bin catching bigger ones
theres a fishing lake in gowerton, by a golf range. theres some really big carp in there, i think someone caught a 23 pounder in there in the summer, theres also a place in pontyrdillais called white springs that has been stocking some 40 pounders in there
OO 40lbers ive hooked and landed a 36lb before Jeez the fight took bout 45 mins but hey the 2.5lb TC in my rod helped along with 16lb braid to 14lb mainline
