Monument Fishery has taken delivery of a new 40lb plus common carp that takes the number of forties in the Midlands day ticket carp hotspot to at least half a dozen.

The water has been producing even in the current cold snap with Brett Adams landing carp of 21lb 4oz, 27lb, 32lb 10oz and 35lb and Kirk Marden chipping in with a brace of thirties going 31lb 8oz and 38lb 12oz using maggot hook baits over a sloppy particle spod mix.
