had a trip down to Kirklees today with none other than Ian, it was hard going to start with not much showing and it started of cold got down there early Ian said 6am s.. that I said 7/7.30 I said well Ian turned up about 8.15 lol only joking Ian and I thought I needed the lie in mate after the night I had 
well after a bit of feed going in it was time for a nice warm cuppa to start us off :)then we noticed a few carp moving around as we walked the banks again,
settled onto a peg it was around 11 am by now been here nearly 3 hours and not a rod in yet, but I could see and understand the way Ian was thinking then Ian set me up on a zig rig and I was in.
that didn't produce so we moved over to the point Ian fed a few bits in and let the wind do the work zig rig went in with a float on for which I had seen before, it hadn't been in no more than 2 minutes when I saw a fish take the bait.
"JB you have a fish on" Ian said
"I know Ian" but the brain didn't register
grabbed the rod and started pulling it in with 1/2 the lakes weed with it lol 
nice JB, thanks Ian very nice fish so it was onto the unhooking for a clean and a photo. now I know its not big but my PB used to be 12lbs to 12 and 1/2 oz`s
and yes I did it on a fresh water I`d nether fished before .
weight 15lbs 3oz`s
