Jordan Wesley from Hertfordshire has caught the biggest Carp in the world so far this year.
The 86.5lb fish known as ‘The Scarred Mirror’ was first spotted in the water in the evening by his Father, Keith and was caught using the Chub Outkast 12ft 3lb TC Rods during a week’s fishing session on the Graviers in France.
Fishing at a 150 yard range the successful bait included half a kilo of Richworth’s Ultra-Plex Boilies per fish and Jordan offered hookbaits on Rigs incorporating size 8 Solar strong hold hooks, 20lb stiff hinge rigs and 5oz prototype Solar debris leads.
Jordan also caught 6 other fish up to 55lb during the trip using the Chub Outkast Rods.
Keith caught the same record fish last season making this the only Father and Son team to have caught Carp over 80lbs on the Chub Outkast Rods.
Jordan said;
“This is the fourth fish over 60lb I have landed using the ever reliable Chub Outkast Rods. A great series of rods – well done Chub!”
