Monks Pit, Cambridgeshire
Steven Haylett got the very best of out a tricky trip to Monks Pit, where despite a lot of fish showing, bites across the lake were hard to come by. After a smart move into the deeper slack water, a tactical switch-up proved to be the turning point!
Using a zig with a DNA Baits Peppered Squid Candy Sticks soaked in Molasses, Steven had two quick bites on the second morning, including a lovely 33lb 4oz mirror. He followed this up with a 37lb 5oz mirror on the final morning. succumbing to a solid-bag approach with a Pink Peril wafter amongst a small parcel of Crayfish Mini Mix pellets and Calanus Hydro.
To top it off, a zig rod rattled off just before pack down with a scaly 30lb-plus mirror, making it four bites, three thirties, and a perfect sunny send-off!
