Mark Bartlett has mega session at his Carpathia syndicate in the Cotswolds

Mark Bartlett spent a truly special session on his Carpathia syndicate in the Cotswolds, where he and his lad Roo enjoyed a three-night adventure packed with big carp, BBQs, football and some unforgettable father-and-son memories.

Making the most of the half-term break, Mark kicked things off with a solid baiting strategy, introducing two buckets of Crayfish pellets, smashed and whole SLK 18mm boilies, 8mm Bug boilies, a splash of SLK Food Liquid, and some corn – a combo that turned out to be spot on!

After getting the rods out by tea time and enjoying their first BBQ of the year, the bites started rolling in each morning like clockwork. Over the course of the session, they landed 11 carp, including five forties and two absolute units over 40lb
