Drennan’s Stewart Moss has given us some more pictures of some of his splendid pristine big Tench from this Spring on an Oxfordshire gravel pit – these fish shown all being over 9lb!

After catching an 11lb 3oz specimen back in June, a few subsequent trips yielded a succession of top quality Tench – all taken on maggot feeder tactics over a silty, raked area baited with freshly cooked hemp the night before.

All were caught on either Heavy Oval Blockend Feeders, set up helicopter style, or an In-line Bolt Rig Feeder 2 ½ oz both with short hooklinks baited with critically balanced buoyant maggot.
