I heard today of a day ticket water,within 6 miles of Sandbach,that "allegedly" contains a 38 lber.
Too good to be true?
Does anyone have info on this?

Hmmm. Think i know the place you mean, but would be surprised if theres 3 different upper 30's in there. Heard there was a 32 came out two years ago (if this is the same water we're on about).

The place i'm reffering to is very shallow.

Same water ???

Marley(delamere) produced a 42 common about 6 years ago,so thats one .



Re my original post,it's probably a wind -up by the owner to get more anglers on site.It's a newly dug lake,one of 4 on site at Barthomley.

42lb mirror mate and spawn bound at that. This thread is in danger of imploding, if you want everyman and his dog to know where "your" secret big fish lake is, keep thowing hints and slitting your own throats but dont moan when "your" lake fills up with glory hunters.

Point taken ,and understood Neil,but as the forest water is something of a closed shop,I saw no harm in mentioning THAT water.
Northern secret squirrel time again,I shalln't mention any other waters,as, as soon as I mentioned a 38,someone wanted to know where it was........
...and no one else has heard of this rumour then?

The point was,to find if anyone had heard of a 38lber in a local lake.(I have now found out it's newly dug,and will probably be a small water).
At Barthomley Nr. Crewe.
However......no one has answered that,and you know how it is,things just get out of hand.

Looks like the rumours were true check out page 6 of this weeks carp talk.
Not a fish that most would have published, especially given the fact that the photo clearly shows that the captor has nearly managed to smash half its tail off.
Feck me even if it was some bizarre unavoidable accident you hang your head in shame, you don’t publish photos where the whole world can see that you have maimed a previously mint fish.

Some do Andy as can be seen. Its this 'at all costs' mentality that is endemic in uk society today. I have not seen the fish but if the angler IS responsible for the damage to the fish then bad angling. Rule one of our sport - respect the quarry.

The bottom lobe of its tail is smashed half way down. The damage extends through the big external ray which is clearly detached and then across half of the bottom tail lobe. In the photo you can clearly see that the damage is fresh and bloody.
Without being witness to the capture you can't say 100% that it was bad angling the damage may have occurred in unavoidable circumstances despite the best efforts of the angler concerned. Like I said though, even if it was a bizarre and unavoidable accident, personally I would be so gutted that the last thing on my mind would be publishing the photos.

Damage like that is normally done when a fish is sacked and is lifted out of the water without any thought for the fishes welfare.

That should end the night fishing debate!

Hold it there guy's, its a dam shame about its tail but it was not done through bad angling or being badly handled as some of you are surgesting without realy haveing a fcking clue what your on about . I know the lad very well and after reading some of the sh1te on here I know he would like me to clear the air, (as rumours can get out of hand) .
He's a very experienced angler and and due to fishing at long range, felt that a braided leader would assist him in winding the rod up that bit more. During the fight the tubing had broke free from the lead clips tail rubber, exposing the braid and it was this that caused the tail damage. A terrible accident yes, but not mis-treatment or bad angling, this could have happened to the best of them.

I don't see how a tail can be smashed in a sack, fins yes because if you are not observant they can be trapped pointing the wrong way.
Tails get smashed when they are allowed to thrash against an hard surface. I remember a post on here about it happening with a particular brand of beanie mat that goes rock hard when the weight of a fish displaces the polly balls.

It wasn't sacked. Braided leader is most likely.

I would suggest that those who were not there shut up and find something else to gossip about.

Neil...it wouldnt happen to me as i wouldnt dream of using a braided leader in the first place,as i would hate to have it on my conscience that one of my rigs could butcher a carp like the one pictured in Carplalk, all for the sake of a few more yards or any other reason for that matter

Hot shot read this again Without being witness to the capture you can't say 100% that it was bad angling the damage may have occurred in unavoidable circumstances despite the best efforts of the angler concerned. Like I said though, even if it was a bizarre and unavoidable accident, personally I would be so gutted that the last thing on my mind would be publishing the photos.

Now exactly who is it who is suggesting that the fish was badly handled without having a fcking clue? That reads exactly as it was intended i.e. could have been badly handled, could not have been badly handled we don’t know?

Looks like I was right a very bizarre accident so bizarre as to be almost beyond belief.

Not being funny Charlie and I know you and Neil are probably just trying to protect a mate, but nobody put his arm up his back it was his choice to publicise. He has published a photo of a fish that he has damaged if you put yourself up there then you have to be prepared to be shot at.

Braided leader to wind his rods up a bit - Read Carp Talk lads - he was said he was fishin at 70 yards using a 2.5 oz lead.
Whats rods is he using - Richard Walker Mk II's.
I suggest he goes back to Argos and gets some new rods preferably for use at Billinge He he.

Maybe he might win some new ones in 'mainlines new competition'.

''''Damaged fish of the week'''''''

Hope it was worth it...........

Can I surgest Joe90 that you dont believe everything you read in C/talk
Andy, my post was not directed at YOU, it was directed at those who are speculating about things they didnt see or were part of so get down off your high horse.
Eagle, it wouldnt happen to me either coz I dont and wont use braid. I know what your saying, but this accident could have happened to ANYONE using braid, as a leader or a mainline, that was what I was trying to say.
Green eyed monsters is bang on Eddie (thats not directed at anyone on here) more to the guys in the back ground who wish they had caught it but didnt and now wish to pi55 on Ian's chips. Dont you think he feels terrible about the incident, I spoke to him last night and he's gutted, like any true caring angler would be.

Agreed.
Now onto something a little more fustrating. A short time ago, some (not sure how many) apparently stunning carp of 30+ up to 44lb that once lived in a lake only 30 mins from my house were sold to a fishery manager in KENT. Yes, you read it right, these fish were uncaught, what the hells going on,Cheshire has never been so good for big carp but 40+ fish are like hens teeth and there being sent down south. I aint talking about the batch where some went to Anglesy either. Bloody disgusting if you ask me.

They are the same fish in Lyny that went to Temple. If they are the ones your on about.

Re sacking carp and damaging tails. It can happen cos it happened to me in France.

If he was so gutted about this event (whatever the event was) why did he publish the picture?

Not rumours Im afraid, a life long friend (ulta reliable) saw the pix and had a good chat with the owner about them. The 44lber was a very dark fish and quite heavily scaled described as a "classic looking" carp and had been banked once ...on a fly !. The water was not open to fishing, but 2 anglers were allowed to have a go for a few nights to see what else was in there, they banked fish to mid-30's and that was that, a buyer was sorted and they were sold.

They are still in there, Hotshot...as I said the netting was unsuccesful due to cold weather and cormorants.

A follow-up netting this summer is being planned...

These are unwanted fish, by the way, of the owners...

Hotshot,your mate Ian,is he related to Derek(swizzer)?
Can't be too many Cheshire anglers with that surname.

Derek is a very prolific carp catcher,and NEVER uses boilies.

NEITHER of the two i was refering to are "pretend" mate, however the bigger of the two would probably not be classed as a North West fish by some anglers,if thats what you mean by "pretend" John...

Ok fair do's, but almost a year down the line I dont see the point in bringing it up again, besides he wont be holding another carp from "there" for sometime.

a lot of people will know where this water is, its big, no fishing, and not exactly easy to "guest". i would love the chance to fish here as would most who know of it, but i dont do "guesting" so will have to do without unfortunately

How can you say its 50..when its never been caught, or at least not to my knowledge..

The Colemere Common was a '50' , look how big that ended up being... 40 with spawn, 37 natural weight.

I'll be suprised if its actually even a 40

If its the same lake we are talking about

Oi Oi Stez me ow mucker,
Lets not forget the circumstances of said Cole fish. It had (has) the frame of a fish 42-44lb but is (or at least was) a NATURAL FOOD fish and therefore the frame does not hold the same weight as a BAIT FISH. Hear it time and time again "big uncaught common" and fair enough they do exist but lets not go putting weights on these beasts coz after all the weight is really irrelevant and it is THE FISH that counts and the achievement (eg Little Rob's capture)... Anyone think me and Hotshot said "unlucky" to our cockle picking friend when we photographed said Cole fish at 37+? I think not. Bit like when the same angler had Basil at 44+ and someone said "unlucky" coz it wasn't over 45lb. Wot a tit.
The water I fish down south is rumoured to hold a very large uncaught common and I have a very open mind about this fish but ignore the weights bandied around, it is the fish itself that counts, the weight is by the by... Estimates are simply that until the fish is in the sling on the scales. What do you angle for; special ones or a "numbers game" of my PB is bigger... Why does Dave Lane hold the capture of Black Jack in such high regard? Coz it is a special one, weight is irrelevant when chasing such fish.
So 50lb Common... Yeah whatever, go catch it, weigh it and see which gives the bigger buzz, the weight or the achievement!
I will now retreat back to my little hovell in Middlesex

right, i havent seen the pics (laugh all you like, i dont care) but i have it on very good authority from a well respected angler that the fish i have mentioned has been banked at over 50lb. a number of people have also said that they have seen fish to collosal sizes in this venue.

Darth Mullet, why dont you just retreat back to your hovell like you said you will, im guessing you wont even know the water even if i named it (its not a secret anyway, just out of respect for the reason its a closed water i shall not name it). as i said before, id love to "go catch it" as you put it, but sometimes things are easier said than done. if you dont believe me, go find out for yourself, you may well be supprised

big respect to those who go out and break the law, but its not for me, rule bending i can handle, but any more doesnt interest me. as i mentioned before, i know why the water is closed to access and i respect the personal feelings of the owners of the property

not being funny, and as a lymm member im all too aware of the rubbish they make up, but its no secret that some very well known anglers are fishing there because they have seen the fish in question. prehaps you could tell me why they would bother being there if the fish they are fishing for isnt that big???

A 50lb fish, and a common at that, in Cheshire? A creature which only the happy captor could prove. I hope it lives
A 30lb Common is still relatively rare in the NW, a 50lber is story of the year...
I'm not having a go... with these uncaught (or very, very rarely caught) fish it is the capture, not the weight, which is the achievement...

A "proper" 50lb Common caught in Cheshire, in the press, would be story of the year for sure. There are not many 50s in the country (mirrors and leathers included,) let alone in the NW.
The press don't know everything tho...

Eh Up Beaky,
How goes it son?
The angling going very well down here, not done a great deal over the winter, went out on the Colne for Chub last week and lost one, very slow, my taps have more water flowing down them...
Did well for the Carp last year, was top rod on my chosen pond, 2 x 29s the best, just the big fella to go, last out at 41.00 and then go on to a 100+ acre pit with 2 x mid 40's... Probs be up there for a few seasons... Then, who knows?! Northern apprenticeship doing me proud son
How's it going up in the squirrel county? Still dodging the devil worshipers?

Regards from the land of the real 50's.

ive headed alot of rumours about cheshire but a NW 50 i just dont believe you may ask how the fcuk do i no i could possibly be wrong but without any pics i just cant believe it. ive seen pics of some of the big commons out of chesire caught a few months back but i don't want to get into that, also ive walked around rostherne a few times ive heard of big fish in there but how big do guys think they are in there just a question not having a go at anyone, and the tabley 40 ive senn a pic of a fish that came out just over 40 a few years back out of there to be honest it looed a scarper 30 i think lymm is doing there old tricks of trying to sell a few more tickets

I don't believe for one minute that Tabley Moat has produced a 40lb carp....

It wasn't caught by Gill Wright was it? Older FW members may recollect this Lymm stalwart who was catching 40's from the Village Pool at Whitley when the biggest fish in there was 21lbs...

Don't forget the 30 from Whitley itself and the 30 odd from Grimbitch,
and he truly believed it!!!

Driving past a (shhh!) Cheshire lake this evening, I saw 3 times as many cars parked there than I have in months.
So.... I phoned a committee member to ask what rumours are going around, cynical me , it turns out someone recently caught a 30lber.

Please pm me with any further details if anything is known. hush-hush.

Just Koi's mate

Loads of rumours flying about big Cheshire carp .. dont believe them all though

A 30 is still a massive fish for Cheshire, each and everyone of them is a pure prize.. especially the rare ones..

Hey Wilson, who's your favourite for this years social cup? No Fat Chops again this year, and ill tie Scotty to his bedchair and we can hit his takes so me and you have a chance mate

Hello,

Has anyone been fishing or heard what is happening over at Top Flash in recent years following the fish deaths several years ago. I spent many a happy day/evening fishing for a certain fish over there in my time.

Any info or news much appreciated.

Hey ho, I always had the 'knack' of calling out the smaller ones from there!

Had a drive down there at the weekend with the missus and the old raven pub is now derelict. Seems it has all gone to pot. probably a few 'mid lumps' still swimming about. I guess the small deep place in the area has the biguns now...
