Crucian Carp fishing

Just to prove that I'm not all about Carp fishing as my Blog title suggests, I had a nice afternoons Crucian Carp fishing with my two boys. The club that we belong to had stocked some Crucians in one of their smaller lakes recently and I decided to have a look and see how they were doing. The good news is that they seem to be doing well and with time they will hopefully grow into some nice specimens. It was a great afternoon with plenty of the lovely humpy backed, bronze flanked little beauties falling to my float fished maggots and the occasional reasonable Rudd putting in an appearance to. Both my sons caught plenty of them too along with some newly stocked mini Tench too.
