We have all caught a fish that has
thought hard to the end and inevitably sometimes these show signs of
damage where the hook has penetrated. On occasions it’s not our
hook hold that needs attention, past ones also need attention as do
other areas on the fish’s body.
A couple of the carp at Broadlands
showed signs of recent spawning and although these will heal
naturally over time, it’s a good idea to gives these a helping hand
if possible. We go to so much trouble to protect our stocks with
large padded unhooking mats and large landing nets, yet unfortunately
its these small areas that can easily become infected that go
ignored. This is why every angler should carry a medi-kit within
their tackle boxes and administrate first aid when needed.
