As ever, Simon Crow got his timing spot on during a recent trip to his Lincolnshire syndicate water, landing this 35lb mirror in prime spring conditions. 

The fish came over a bed of DNA BAITS Bug boilies and sweetcorn, with a PB wafter doing the business as the hookbait. With the warmer weather kicking in, the fish have really started to move and we are seeing many catches reported all over the country.
