Barney’s big common – 30lb 2oz

Mick ‘Barney’ Barnes can’t stop hauling on Pit 3 at Frimley and after another 12 hour session banked another 30lb+ common carp!

Barney, who is backed by Surrey Tackle Exchange, had just the one fish this time out, but going 30lb 2oz he was over the moon. The bait which did the trick was Heathrow Bait Services Red Nut Mix and was presented on size 10 Mugga hooks, Suffix Camo Skin, a 3oz Atomic Bottle Bomb to 12lb Krystonite line with Fluorocarbon leaders.
