ON THE 25TH AUGUST 2009 THE GROWING RESERVOIR AT FENLANDS FISHERY WAS NETTED IN PREPERATION TO TRANSPORT THE PREMIUM CARP TO PAVYOTTS MILL FISHERY,TRANSPORTATION WAS UNDERTAKEN BY TRAFFALGER FISHERIES (SAILISBURY).

DURING THE NETTING PROCESS THE FIRST PREMIUM CARP TO BE WEIGHED IN WAS A  44LB 8OZ MIRROR (CHIP No 4413) THIS FISH HAD INCREASED ITS WEIGHT BY 12LB 8OZ DURING THE PAST 11 MONTHS.
