BK`s fish listas 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

I would say the hardest will your eel.
Good luck on them all though.

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.

well i had a tench this weekend but no where near the size of the one on me list.
as yet i have not met any of the target`s on the list, but now the weather`s warming up I'm going to make an effort to get some of them ticked off.

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
|
richchappy

you would be surprised what can make there way into lakes lol
but im not going to argue, if you think it is, your the one that saw it in the flesh,
nice fish either way
|

That Crucian had got some fan tail goldfish in it by the looks of it
Still counts
True crucians are very very rare
