 Ian with a superb Yateley mirror With the BCAC over for another year, Team Bankside member Ian Poole has been out and about on a variety of waters over the last few weeks, and recently bagged a nice brace of fish during a tough few days on Yateley Sandhurst. Just three carp were landed during his stay and Ian managed to land two of them. Off the mark quickly with a 33-06 mirror, Ian backed up his first fish with a 24lb common on his last afternoon to ensure a successful first trip to this busy day ticket water.  Ian's 24lb common The winning bait for both carp was Richworth's K-G-1, with the hookbaits fished inside solid PVA bags of Bankside's Mini Mass pellets and crushed K-G-1 freezer baits. A size 8 Korda Wide Gape tied to 3 inches of Korda Supernatural braid was the winning rig, and this was combined with the very efective outline rig which ensures the lead comes off when a carp is hooked. |

Over the last couple of years Jon has been receiving an ever increasing number of requests about carp angling tuition, and we are very pleased to announce that from October 1st Bankside will be offering a limited number of tuition sessions on the Richworth Linear complex.  A Manor Farm mid 30 Jon has the full portfolio of Linear Fisheries day ticket waters at his disposal which offer something for everyone. Whether you are keen to learn how to catch consistently on prolific waters such as Brasenose 1 and 2, or refine your big fish skills and at the same time go in search of the Big Fully Scaled from St. Johns, Jon has the knowledge to put you on the right track.  Jon and Ian win the BCAC Cutting his teeth on venues such as the pressured Linch Hill complex and then successfully moving on to waters such as Dinton Pastures, Jon has captured more than 60 English 30's and 5 x 40's on his travels around the UK's big fish scene. Along with his match partner Ian Poole, Jon's also a regular in the British Carp Angling Championships and has just capped off a run of consistent results with a convincing victory in this years final. It's fair to say that Jon knows how to succeed on all types of waters and it's entirely up to you as to how you want to tap into his extensive carp angling know how built up over the last 20 years. Trips can be tailor made to suit your carp angling requirements and cover as many or as few subjects as you want. To book a session or for more details please contact Jon at the shop on 01684 294511. |

After a very dour start to the season, it's nice to see the River Severn finally hit some form, and running water expert Alan Smith has been making the most of it. His latest rampage through the stocks of Severn carp has resulted in the capture of this cracking 28lb mirror, amongst others, on a short overnight session. Once again, a prototype Bankside boilie was the winning bait - watch this space for further news on a release date.  Alan Smith's River Severn Stunner Barbel now, and Bankside Tackle's 'top man' has also been spotted sneaking about on the banks of the Severn in the dead of night, and a series of sessions on the lower stretch of the river has seen Jon bank one of his target fish in the shape of this stunning 12-10 barbel, a big Severn specimen by anyone's standards. The ever consistant Team Barbel boilies fished alongside a small bag of XL Grubbers was the succesful tactic, and one that's accounted for big barbel from many of the local rivers this year.
