Top carp revealed

JETHRO Buter cradles this 46lb-plus mirror in front of one of the most beautiful backdrops in European carp angling.

The Church on the Island at Slovenia’s Lake Bled provides a majestic background for this catch shot.

The specimen, which was weighed in at 21.1kg, was one of five fish in three days for Dutch angler Jethro.

The 29-year-old said: “This awesome fish was caught during a three-day session.

“I managed to catch a total of five fish. It’s a hard lake and not much was caught during the weekend.”

Jethro fed a mixture of Sticky Krill and Manilla boilies, with either a pink Krill wafter or yellow Manilla wafter over the top.

His rigs featured 25lb Ashima Excalibur hooklinks and size 4 Ashima C887 Heavy Carp hooks.

“On a three-day session I managed to catch five fish. It’s a hard lake and not much was caught over the weekend”
