I used groundbait that I prepare by myself, but lately I had to change it because fish wanted something better. Pasha and first first bream I caught a big crucian carp at midnight that was amazing! The biggest crucian and me Crucians were biting very confidently. They just pulled whole rod into the water. Night crucian of standard size Our neighbor got a big bream.

Nibble was good using all of them Here is my groundbait: Some big fish ripped my line few times. After that I used special carp line. This was made a sense and I caught my biggest fish!

'pond' is a bad/wrong word? Lake is better? We use lake for place that was formed by natural way many thousands years ago. How I have to call water-places that was made by humans? About tench answer is: Yes. Actually there is 2 'ponds'. First is open space (I was fishing on it) and secon is overgrowned by reed. That second place has a lot of tenches, and some of them went to first place. Here some photos. That place is amazing, isn't it? here is friend of mine Yaroslav here are owners of the pond. They check their fishing nets: a little mirror carp: a place for fishing. I call it a pier, I am right? another place for fishing: this is a place for float-rods: and this is another neighboring pond, that I described before. With a lot of tenches: this is also it I posted those photos as you wanted I'm sorry for bad English

I have forgotten to add link for a full post on my blog http://rivnefish.com/en/2012/11/22/gorodishche-01-09-2012/ Why I have to wait before post will appear on this forum? This is premoderation or smth like that? Why I can't modify my own post?

You never guess how we call this beautifull fish here It sounds like: "lyasch" khm.. You, Britain people, even don't have that sound at all "lya". It is something like "la" but very-very soft. And I realy don't know to explaine it for you Anyway, thanks for corection. I will remember right English name for our Ukrainian lyasch

Styr is a river in a west Ukraine.. You can find this fishing place at my map. But I really sorry, that is only in Ukrainian translation Please find place that calls "Лисин" on right column and click on it. This is a village on bank of river Styr where my father in law was born. 2. This is the fish that we call "silver crucian" or simply "crucian" (lat. Carassius gibelio): And this is the fish that we call "golden crucian" (lat. Carassius carassius): Golden crucians are very rare endangered species now 4. Maybe is is a gobie. My English is poor, so I just used Google for found image and name of this fish (lat. Cottus gobio): My photos: So, this is the gobie, isn't it? And what is a bullhead? Thank you all for replies I reallu appriciate for that. And sory for bad English.

Weather: temperature +23C, clouds, wind N-W 3 m/s, preasure 994 hPa. Time: from 06:00 until 13:00. Place: Styr river. Catched: about 10 bullhead, 5 little brasems, 1 perch and 2 crucians. Bait: wheat, magots. Grounbait: wheat. Tackles: rods. very detailed information is here: http://rivnefish.com/en/2012/08/15/lisin-11-08-2012/

1. If you prepared this bait in right way, it will stay on hook for long time. 15 minutes is minimum 2. Take semolina and invite the same amount of water. Wait 10 minutes and begin to stir. You have to stir very extensively for 15 minutes, that is not easy. But long time of stiring is only one way to make perfect bait from semolina As I said before it is one of the best bait for crucian and carp here, in Ukraine. When nibble absent this bait can help out you. If even semoline doesn't work — go home

We use semoline like a paste It is one of a favorite bait here, in Ukraine, for the crucian. Hook №14-12 not small as for me. Here is example of usage with syringe, but in most of cases we use just a wooden stick Semolina must be liquid. We call this bait something like English word "stir" but as a noun.

Thank you for explanation! Here in Ukraine we have the amount of ponds with sport approach (where you must to release fish) that we can count on fingers of one hand. Specialy in my region. Why? Because at most of the fishing places owners grow fish like livestock. They just are feeding fish (mostly common carp, silver carp and crucian) and after 2 or 3 years take all fish from pond. Nay, they use fishing nets at their ponds all time! And in this situation why we shall release a fish at such places? But last few years many anglers distribute a vision of "catch and release" philosophy. Well, it is hard to explane all situation in few words I hope my future fishing reports give you clearer vision.

I have no idea what does it mean And google doesn't help Can you explaine for me? I'm leave in Ukraine and English is not so easy for me. Thanks.

I have almost all of these fish pictures, in such format: If you like them, I can show all other

Russian greatest fisherman Sabaneev also recomended to use moss.
