Additional Info: A tough winter session on a local lake resulting in 2 small carp . After the lakes had been frozen a no fish been caught in two weeks from all 3 lakes on site it wasn't looking brilliant with no shows and nothing to on.

Small amounts of manilla active 12mm were introduced to the spots fishing bags of bloodworm pellet and bottom baits on blowback rigs over the top resulted in a small mirror and common.
