Recently Team Avid members comprising of our own Jon Finch and Nigel Williams along with Ian Russell and Jon 'Shoes' Jones have just returned from what has been a session to remember. In four days fishing the lads managed to bank some of Abbey Lakes finest.  Team Avid. You can certainly rely that these guys have put the products through their paces Jon and Nige opted to fish Heron Lake and set up in a quiet corner that looked good for a bite or two. Jon fished solid PVA bags of Grubber and Sucka pellets with a few crushed D-Liver boilies inside and then scattered about half a kilo of 12mm D-Liver boilies in the general area. At first light his left hand rod melted away and after an epic battle Jon managed to slip the net under a 58lb 4oz mirror. Simply magic.  An Abbey whacker at 58lb 4oz Inspired by the electric atmosphere of a whacker on the bank Nige sat back in his swim in anticipation. Nige re-cast his rods back to the spots and scattered another 50 D-Liver 20mm boilies in the area. In no time at all after returning Jon's capture, Nige pulled into a steady take and what they were about to witness was truly awesome. As Jon got ready with the net a huge mirror appeared at the drawcord. In disbelief the mirror rolled into the net and upon parting the mesh they both released that the biggest fish in the lake had been nailed on a D-Liver boilie.  Nige with Heron lakes Shoulders at 70lb 4oz With the Team Avid crew all present, they were about to witness the scales being pulled round to the magical 70lb mark. The huge mirror settled the dial at 70lb 4oz and who could have believed the two largest residents in the lake would crop up at the time of their visit. Awesome fishing and a session to remember.
