I just had to quickly edit the Faceache post. The fish is called the Big S, it's not from the Big S, as I took from the insta post we were tagged in. I'm tired & easily confused. It's been a stressful week, that's my excuse 😂. Still a banger. A big banger too.
Forum member Martin. Pink S2. Suns out guns out. Well done mate.

Both amazing captures. Both well done.
That Big S fish is just wow.
Especially as a survivor - was it - I remember reading something about a pollution/poison incident linked to the 'bank of death' was it something from the rubbish tip went into the lake and wiped most of the stock out ?

Jude is only 19 years old. He decided to target a large, very low stock inner city park lake, right up north. Granite place. He's only done 5 trips. Yesterday night, he banked a PB on our GPB2. While sorting the fish out, the other rod ripped off, he landed a second PB, again on a GPB2. From right up north. These two are an epic brace in my opinion. Both PB's too, one after the other! I get sent a lot of pics of fish. Not many make me smile as much as those. Massive kudos to the lad.
Adam. Overnighter. What a carp! Ming-GPB2.
Sam, Dinton Black Swan, GPB1
Lee again, park lake, GPB2

Mark, I’d be very interested too in the larger gbp2 should you make some.

Sorry Jack, I always get stuff wrong. I was referring to other times, I've seen those ones a few times now through Chris & Alan. Bloody well done. That's a tough lake and to smash three in a trip like that as your first captures is some going. They are epic carp.
Good angling Jack 😎

The common from El’s lake was actually 42, though I know it has gone higher previously at other times of the year. Still buzzing over those three carp! Cheers Mark.

Mark, will the GPB2 bottom bait barrels be in the shops anytime soon ?
If you could do the tackle box ones with the ming oil that would be fantastic ðŸ‘

You do what you want with them mate. They are yours. Flog them if you find them.

Superb old carp Steve. Great photos. I caught the snaglake mirror, from the snag lake a couple of times as a teenager before it had that name.

You know if you do make some GPB2 bal 20mm I would definetly take some, it would stop me messaging you about them like in the past Mark 🤣🤣🤣 The 16mm are mega but a 20mm would be turbo charged with your wizardry 👌
