The 36lb common caught during the "Redmire Forever" video..?

Don't know about post 1983 captures so can't help there. I have thought of another to add to my earlier list; Bowskill's second thirty caught in 1967. Can't recall the exact weight, but 33lb springs to mind.

33 on the nose GOS, that would be Carp number 5 with Quinlan's "Pinky" in at number 4. Wow, this is like the Sinday chart show now!!!

I thought I'd included Pinky earlier? Must be going mad..

[The Sweetcorn Kid]

You did, this is getting quite confusing.

I know of at least 2 other 30s to come out of Redmire recently but I don't know their exact weights.
One of them was by 'keith' who has it as his avatar on the Redmire pool forum.
