About me…..
I started fishing 19 years ago on a small farm lake catching Rudd, Roach, Skimmers and Gudgeon. After a few trips I managed to land a small double figured carp on sweetcorn, ever since then I have been crazy about angling and Carp. I don’t really fish the busy circuit waters as I like the peace and quiet, the only time you will find me on these are on tutorials. Yes I decided to turn my passion of carp fishing into my job, I love helping people put more carp on the bank and upping there current PB. I am currently angling for a massive common which is 56lb+ from my 17 acre syndicate. After I have hopefully caught him I will be back on Boreham Mere for the 2 last target fish 1 fully scaled around 30lb and a common of 32lb.

Hintlesham fishery

Overnight syndicate success
Posted by Andy Lyons April 4, 2015I arrived at the lake at 3pm delighted to find 3 cars parked in the carpark which was great as the lake is 17 acres so plenty of swims free. After walking for 5 minutes my mood changed as both the swims I had been baiting up were both taken.... -
The perfect end
Posted by Andy Lyons February 15, 2015I had a 48hr session booked in for mid-December with my dad, and it just so happened to be one of those lovely warmer days we experienced. We went to a water that we both know well and when we arrived at 3pm half of the swims were under water... -
The mosaic common
Posted by Andy Lyons December 28, 2014It was a Monday morning the van had its first frost on the windscreen, driving to the lake I could see it was going to be a cloudy day. The temperatures were not going to much more than 10 degrees. I arrived in to an empty car park at 5:45am,... -
short sessions and edges
Posted by Andy Lyons November 23, 2014I had a 6 day session planned on the syndicate but 2 days in only 1 carp had been banked in over 9 days and it didn’t look like they would get on the feed anytime soon so at 5am I decided to head over to a club water and... -

Posted by Andy Lyons November 2, 2014At 6.55am on Friday myself and my 2 clients arrive at the locked Thorpe lea gates the weather was mild and blowing a South Westerly. The bailiff opened the gates at 7am and we drive into the car park. We look at the map of the lake in the hut... -
The Big Lin
Posted by Andy Lyons September 1, 2014It was a moist August morning over the mere, I arrived in the car park at 4am it was still too dark to see the steps leading down the lake so I used the phone screen to help me. Once down beside the lake I could hear crashing carp not... -
Hot and bothered.
Posted by Andy Lyons August 15, 2014July and August can be funny months for carp anglers because the carp could have another go at spawning if they got interrupted earlier in the year. The high air pressures and temperatures also play a massive factor in these months. Usually I would opt for zigs in these conditions...
