Carp Angler of the Year is at it again!
Angling Times Carp Angler of the Year Kris Ollington has started his 2016 campaign in the same way he left 2015.
The Surrey angler caught an unprecedented six UK fifties last year, and opened this year’s tally with a 52lb 4oz common and a 41lb 6oz mirror.
Both fish fell on the same morning of a weekend session at Berkshire’s Wellington Country Park. “I’m really made up with a couple of lovely cold-water whackers,” said Kris, who bagged the bigger one, the Chestnut Common, last year at exactly 52lb.
