Josef age 9 youngest Angler to land a 40lb+ Carp

April 18, 2012

Josef Tubby age 9 on his first fishing trip to France has become the youngest Angler to bank a Carp over the 40lb mark here at Genets. Fishing with his own 2 rods during the daytime he was already very happy this afternoon when he landed a 24lb 8oz Common his first PB so could hardly believe it when 2 hours later he hooked into a 45lb 8oz Mirror. Josef who has been fishing with his Dad since he was 5 years old played both fish himself & was then helped by Dad Tony to land & weigh them. With Josef suffering from aching arms Dad held the 45lb 8oz for the photo. Well done & congratulations young Man.

Just 40 minutes later Josef’s Grand-Dad Michael on his first trip to France also banked his own PB of 36lb 4oz.

It was big smiles all round the dinner table here this evening.
