Tinpot bags Jamie’s

Daren ‘Tinpot’ Norman caught the carp of his dreams at the weekend, namely ‘Jamie’s’ from the Roach Pit, a simply stunning old mirror named after Ringwood legend Jamie Walker. It weighed 38lb 8oz and is only its 8th capture ever. Considering the amount of pressure this venue receives that makes it a very rare fish indeed.

Tinpot used Sticky Bait’s gear and his tackle comprised ESP Syncro 18lb mainline, ESP Leadcore and the rig was a hinged stiff rig with a Ghost Fluorocarbon boom section, bristle filament hook section and a trusty size 5 Stiff Rigger.
