Talking Buzzers & Stalking Leneys!

West midlands  specialist angler Bill Woodward was on the phone to me the other day asking about the mk1 compacts and itching to put his order in, when we got onto discussing  all things carp and the waters hes fished around his area. as we got chatting he sent me through some wonderful old Leney shots of some very special old history fish. I say history fish in every sense as these are original Leneys undiluted and dating back to the 1970s. what wonderful carp, and really the size is irrelevant these are the old ladies and gents of our lakes that are sadly passing away as time passes on. So with this understanding Bills found himself a little bit of heaven with these wonderful old carp in and its an old estate lake that's surprisingly a day ticket water. 
Here's what Bill himself has to say......  
``After chasing large carp for a while I became more focussed on quality carp with some history to them, size almost immaterial.  The lake I'm focussed on at the moment is an old estate lake in Leicestershire called Willesley, currently a day ticket and open to all.  People are shocked to hear this when they see the pictures of the type of carp that live here, leneys, over 30 years old,  Chestnut mirrors and deep bronze commons.  Not the easy runs water it was in the 80's and 90's, it's now a different proposition but rewards the thinking angler.  Even on running rigs they move the indicator no more than a fraction giving a single bleep if you're lucky, on a bolt rig they don't even move it out the silt and you're done!!  A real test of a decent alarm hence my conversation with Scott and an order placed.  Here are just a couple of the old warriors that reside in Willesley, both caught on Mainline baits which they seem to have a distinct liking for in there.``
