as a few of you know im not just a carper and do like fishing for other species, as long as they are of a decent size....

so with that i have set myself a task for this year. and thats to catch one of all the fish on the list below bigger than the weight that i have put beside each one. i have picked the weight`s of what i believe to be realistic for the water`s im targeting,(e.g) big fish for the water.

so here`s the list.......

species................target weight...................biggest caught

carp.....................20lb...............................15.8

tench....................8lb................................4.0

bream...................8lb................................4.8

roach....................2lb................................8oz

rudd......................1lb................................

crucian carp...........2lb................................2lb 8oz

perch....................2lb.................................

pike......................15lb................................3.0

eel........................4lb..................................3.8

chub.....................4lb...................................

grayling.................2lb...................................

barbel..........any as ive never caught one.........

catfish..........any as ive never caught one.........

the biggest challenge will be to catch a rudd over a pound, most of the water i fish hold rudd but there all very small fish.

out tomorrow to see if i can get that 2lb+ roach

Good luck mate, hope you succeed in all of them  

You have set yourself fair targets there I would say

Personally I would say the 2 hardest ones is the 2lb Roach and the 2lb Grayling


Look forward to pics of your rewards

to be honest i dont want to do it all in one weekend, i would rather spread it out over the year so that i have many high`s instead of just one.

the lake only had carp and trout in when the club toke over the lease, and they stocked fish bought from a dealer. there`s no brown gold fish or ornamental`s in there.

if you look at the tail you will see it`s a bit deformed, and was riddled in lice...

i did check the dorsal fin to make sure it was convexed
