Things really heated up this weekend on the fishing front at Norton Disney, with loads of good fish coming out all around the complex so it was only going to be a matter of time before one of the real big girls was caught from Pettitt’s Lake!
Adam Raby couldn’t have hoped for more when he joined the leads4less social on Pettitts Lake over the weekend. Coming out first in the draw, Adam opted for Peg 2, knowing that it would give him plenty of options and some good areas of relatively shallow water – the ideal place to target over these next few weeks.
Adam targeted an area in the centre of the lake, after taking on some key knowledge from the Embryo fishery staff, remember their staff know these lakes like the back of their hand and are always keen to help out as much as possible!

7 spombs of hemp, maize and corn, plus plenty of mixed whole and crushed boilie.
The result was a couple of quick bites, and less than 12 hours into the social, Adam had netted one of Norton Disney’s most-wanted carp – The Avenger!
At 42lb, it was a healthy weight for this fish and being just short of Adam’s PB, it saved him a bucket full which had been kindly prepared by the other lads just in case!
