🎣 The mission was simple… get Rory his first 30lb+ carp.
This trip to France was always going to be a special one. We headed over to the Ablacus Estate, staying on Pavillion Lake with a little time spent on Moulin too, with one main goal in mind — getting my son Rory a new PB and, hopefully, his first carp over 30lb.
But this trip was about more than just the fishing.
Rory was on a mission, I was determined to help him achieve it… and somehow, we even managed to get the wife to come along! 😂❤️ Anyone who knows us knows just how much of an achievement that was!
A week of fishing, family time, laughs, a few surprises and some seriously memorable carp.
And judging by this photo… I think we might have achieved what we came for. 👊🐟
