MND Association East Kent member Daren Edwards who lives with MND, is a keen fisherman and regularly visits France seeking to catch large carp.

On his most recent visit he caught the beauty shown below in a lake in the Champagne Region, it is a mirror carp and weighed in at 32 pounds and took over 20 minutes to land.

For those who appreciate the finer points of fishing, it was using a 15lb mainline with 3 Tiger Nuts as bait.? The temperature was 28C, difficult conditions but Darren had a great time.

Daren would like to thank MND Association for the financial contribution towards his holiday trip.
