Tactical change yields stives beast for luke stevenson
The simple tactical change of switching over from a pop-up to a bottom bait was enough to bring Luke Stevenson’s campaign on St Ives Shallow Pit to a euphoric end with the capture of the lake’s colossal mirror Colin at 51¼lb (above).

After bagging the Sheffield Linear, the only A-Team fish other than Colin to have evaded him, a few weeks ago, he knew he was close. Then on the second morning of his latest two-day session Luke received the bite he’d been waiting for when his bottom bait was snaffled by the Shallow Pit’s largest inhabitant.

Around the venues If I told you in Staffordshire there is a fishery with pools within which the average carp is currently over 30lb, you’d be interested, wouldn’t you? What if I told you it’s not a syndicate or a club venue, but is available for all to fish on a day-ticket basis? Still interested? Then check out Baden hall Fishery, where the Quarry is starting to wake up and big fish are on the move.
