Well I just spent nearly two hours doing a write up about this week for my gay iPhone to delete it so I'm gonna just do a picture blog for you all with a little write up 
The long drive down to Essex was too much for him, can take the lad out of Leeds but you can't take the Leeds out the lad haha pissing up a millionaires driveway while he was gardening.
We only had a couple I promise
ferry life £5 a pint us Yorkshire lads realy can't afford to move darn sarf.
First time passed rather uneventful for me but Jimmy had a very good start to his session with a lovely 30ld common a new pb at the time.
But after steak and chips for tea I screwed my head on rigged my rods ups and set about looking for some carp after an hours spotting fish and two hours spodding and countless casts to my spots my traps were set.
All was quite for most of the night so me and Jimmy cracked open a few ciders that I managed to sneak across the border?
Until 3am when i had Jimmy waking me up with another lump in his net we got photos slipped her back and boom my delkim give out its first song of the session and I was into my first fish, I played it so nervously never been so scared of losing a fish ever, just the thought of what was on the other end realy scared me and Jimmy could even hear my scrawny bones chattering as he slipped the net under my first fish all 38 pound 8 oz of it my new pb I was ecstatic to say the least. I'd not blanked which was my biggest fear and here she is weird shape like...
After slipping her back and putting my rods back on the money I climbed back in my pit a very very happy chappy and I was awake all night after that I couldn't sleep.
A fair few hours passed before Jimmy 50 fish was into his third of the session and after that had its moment of fame we went for our first dreamlakes breakfast which i might add was beautiful could even make liptrigga full I reckon.
After more spodding more markering and many more recasts my rods were again set before my second 30 of the trip made the mistake of picking my blowback rig up (that Jimmy tied me) before he pipes up!

All 30 pound 8 oz of it to say I was buzzing was an understatement we was on a roll I was on 2 Jimmy on about 5 on our first full day all the pressure was of us we'd not blanked we could finnally enjoy our holiday. But 30 minutes later I was into my third fish a mid double pasty mirror that went mental on the bank and tried swimming off on my mat they realy don't donthere selves any favours.

And that realy was it for I'd say 36 hours for me I was racking my brains wondering how I'd get another fish while Jimmy was hauling em in two forties and countless 20's and 30's I realy had to dig deep and screw my head on I sat most of that day just watching the water and I decided to add an extra 30 yds to my cast and reduce the bait I was putting and the next morning I was rewarded when my delkim screened off again as I was making Jimmy his morning coffee he gets so narky when I don't make him one every morning.
And here she is one of my favourite looking fish of the week, at the time a new mirror pb at 25 pound 2 oz...
A lovely looking fish she went back and my rod went back out to a showing fish and Jimmy got his coffee. But brew time was cut short when jimmy bagged another 30 and I bagged another pb at 27 pound 8 oz I think she went a nice "big scaley"
We was going to get a double ahot in the water but my fish had a fit and swam of hahahaha happy as Larry we went for breakfast and stuck our rods back out and we both tried getting some sleep before again my rod took of and I was into my third 30 pound carp of the session and my favourite fish of the session at 30 pound 8 oz I had to net this alone as Jimmy was asleep haha a lovely dark old common was in my net buzzing!!
And from that runs just kept coming for us both Jimmy on like 14 or 15 me on 6 after day 5 we could quite happily call it quits but we never we worked solidly hard all week spombing watching water recasting to showing fish during the night rebaiting it was quite an ordeal realy at times thunderstorms we was out spombing one night soaked to the bone.
These was my rewards...
Another mud double
22ld parrot face
25ld lovely common
And to finish it was this last common at 28 pound to make it fish 10 abosolutely buzzing on my second to last night I'd set out with the aim of 7 fish but I deep down wated double figures and this common set that in stone, I'd smashed every pb ever made and had an absolutely awesome time in between all the action. Jimmy for those who haven't met him or arnt realy sure about him seriously spend some time with him, not meaning to act like I'm im sniffing his arse crack behind his big ego raw banter and very controversial comment he realy is a nice kid if you need help hell bend over backwards if he likes you I witnessed this during our week away helping me spod more accurately and helping tie a total stranger three rigs as he was struggling and eventually caught on his rigs.
A few scenics...
Our last night in heaven!
For those who haven't been to France fishing or have there doubts over dreamlakes seriously beg borrow and steal to go I can assure you youl have the time of your lives. Jimmy is putting a thread up soon for those who want to give it a try, I have a kid so I know how finding time ain't easy but try your best lads its a once in a lifetime opportunity it's not just the fishing that's awesome it's everything that goes with it!
Anyways enough of me babbling on tight lines!!
