Terry Dempsey on landing his PB common“When I put my glasses on, it turned the surface of the lake from a silver sheet into a transparent window, beneath which I could see gravel bars, and dark shapes moving around. There is no doubt in my mind that without my Fortis Eyewear, I wouldn’t have had half as much success over the last few weeks. “These were the words of Terry Dempsey, who has just enjoyed a brilliant run of form – including the capture of his new personal best common carp, at a weight of 42lb 8oz. Terry explained: “Being able to identify the shallow, gravelly areas of my Kent target water were vital – and the excellent subsurface vision offered by the Fortis glasses made this a doddle.

A few weeks ago he spotted carp moving there but did not know exactly what or how big the fish were. He rigged up a combi rig with a single Factor VII freezer bait, and tipped it with a bit of corn.
