New World Record Dream Carp from Martin Locke in France



January 2010

Congratulations to Martin Locke the Kent based Solar Tackle boss


The world record carp has been broken by Martin Locke, who last week smashed the world carp record with this huge mirror weighing 94lb.

The monster mirror (Briggs' Fish), beats the previous record by 3lb and was taken on a week-long trip to Rainbow Lake in France.

His bait had been sitting over mixed seeds, hemp and crushed boilies for four days until the take in the early hours of the morning saw him battle with the same fish that set his previous personal best of 84lb back in September 2008. Martin took the fish from swim 12 on the 110-acre venue.

Martin used an ultra-tough rig comprising an 85lb Kryston Ton-Up hooklength, a 12oz lead and a size 1 Solar hook sporting a long hair carrying three Solar Club Mix boilies.

The capture means that Rainbow Lake, situated close to Bordeaux, has wrestled back the world record venue crown from fellow French water Les Graviers, which produced the former record carp caught by Andre Komornicki in 2008 at 91lb.

One man who knows first-hand the challenge presented by fishing at Rainbow Lake is Rob Hales, the UK fishery boss who himself caught (Briggs' Fish) at 90lb 4oz last May.

"Many people have no idea of just how challenging the place is. You can go weeks without a bite and trying to locate where the fish will feed in a huge lake that has a bottom like an underwater jungle is the ultimate test for any angler."

For many of the UK Carpers such a trip to the Rainbow Lake or Les Graviers is a dream Carping expedition which more often than not results in a blank,well done Martin.
