ABSOLUTE SCENES AT CACKLE HILL! 💥🎣
A Totally Mad Carp Social from start to finish and one for the books! ✅ EVERYONE caught a fish — no blanks, no excuses, just solid action all round!

Non‑stop laughs, savage banter, top mates on the bank and rods doing bits while we soaked up the unreal beauty of the place 🌿☀️.

This is what it’s all about — good friends, great fishing, proper vibes and memories made that’ll last longer than the buzz from the bite alarms 👊🐟

Thanks to those on the bank and making it a special weekend.

Cackle Hill delivered BIG TIME. Roll on the next social — who’s in?! 🔥🔥

Well done Danny on claiming the biggest fish prize, for a lovely 29lb Mirror.

Danny has chosen to donate his prize to the parent and child event we’re holding later on in the year. Thank you very much for the donation.

To everyone that attended a massive thank you and to those watching the updates at home thank you for your continued support.

Myself and Lee are jet setting to Romania in May for our next fishing adventure. There will be plenty of updates and lives to come.

And for all those heading out on the bank, Much love & Tight Lines.

Late post due to the dreaded pack up but at 4:30 this morning Lilly’s rod yet again bursting into life with this low double mirror.

Smashing session Lilly well done. Top rod well deserved.

Been a really slow day on the fish front but Tim’s rod burst into life just after dark resulting in this Common carp weighing 24lb 8oz.

🤞 for a productive final night at the Yateley Pads Social. Tight Lines all.
