Team England ace Stu Conroy has sent us this picture of Adam Harman, 15, from Cheshire with a fantastic match-winning net of fish from one of his local waters. It may look like a typical bag from a commercial fishery, but was actually taken at Ackers Pit – a Warrington Anglers Association water.
Adam won the junior match at the venue with a tremendous 37lb net of Carp to 5lb, Roach and Rudd that saw him finish almost 30lb clear of his nearest rival! Adam fished two main lines, the first at 7 metres for the silverfish using a size 20 Silverfish Match hook to 0.08mm Double Strength, under a Drennan 4×10 Roach pole float. His second, Carp line at 11 metres, was tackled with a size 18 Silverfish Pellet hook to a 0.128mm Double Strength hooklength.
Stu reports that this was a fantastic catch by a very talented youngster and he’s one to watch for the future!
