📝 Summary

The video, filmed in May 2021 at Grenville in Cambridgeshire, is a 106-minute film about carp fishing. It features anglers Lee Morris, Mark Bartlett, Simon Crow, and Roger Bacon. The anglers have a very successful fishing session, landing many 40lb-plus carp and numerous scaly mirror carp. They use a new insect-meal boilie called "The Bug" and demolish the lake with carp queuing up to get a taste of their bait. The video shows how the anglers bait up at this type of venue, demonstrating their boilie-based approach for tackling big carp lakes. They mix The Bug boilies with a lot of liquid, including the Bug Hydro Spod Syrup, Betastim and Bug Liquid Food, to keep the bites coming regularly and the carp returning to their spot to feast on the bait. The anglers also demonstrate their rig techniques, focusing on D-rigs and hinged stiff rigs, which produce the majority of the bites when fished over their big beds of boilies. Pop-up boilies, particularly the Bug Half Tones pop-ups and PB pop-ups, are shown to be very effective. The video also includes a tutorial on how to tie the pop-up rig that has accounted for so many of Roger's big carp down the years.
