Pemb fished the match from the start with the method at 70 yrds , using Bagems Commercial carp as his Ground bait mix. He started off on the boilie , but found that the carp were more willing to take the Humble Maggot , and with his forst carp going over 12lb he stuck to his guns and proceeded to catch mainly carp with the odd skimmer and F1 through out the day!
