Roger Marlow managed this healthy 8lb+ catch in just a few hours during a practice session on the River Soar in Leicestershire. 

The England Veterans squad member caught them all on bloodworm over groundbait and with extremely strong winds to contend with he chose to fish a 4g pole float at nine metres. He fed four balls of groundbait and soil at the start and topped up regularly to keep bites coming.

With the prestigious Sensas Challenge Final on the same river this weekend he will be hoping for more of the same with his Drennan Leicester squad.
