    in Session Carp Fishing

    Now im not sayin you cant catch in the winter, but on my last few visits to my local lakes and evryone and myself havent caught a thing except for the odd small carp, but nothing much.

    I was wondering if you lot had any brilliant ways that have caught you carp in the winter.

    Im looking for any methods you or your friends have used and have managed to catch decent fish in the winter.

     

    Thankz for all your help in advance

    hi fanxz for all your help but i am going with my dad and frineds so ill never be alone night fishing.

    But, i havent had anyone answer my question. I really need to find a cheap decent bivvy because i havent got that much money. im lookin at the defender dome but it might take a bit off saving for me and trust me im not at all good at saveing ive just recently bought a stalker pod and took that money out of my savings account and now ive got to save up by doing lots of jobs to put it back in.

     

    Good debate but i really need to find a cheap and decent bivvy quite quick.

    Fankz in advance

    Hi Chuffster,

    I'm a member of caa i live in chelmsford.

    I like Blunts mere. its got some nice carp. my biggest carp form there is 13lb, my mates are 15 and 16lb. but the someone i know has caught a 22lber.

    I find this the best as in the morning theres a kind of feeding frenzie at about 7 till 8:30.

    I gaurantie you'll catch something. It has an island that you can fish off and the best place is on the island where the water goes around the island like a channel i like this swim.

     

    In the summer tuffenll mere is the best if you want to catch something. You'll defintely catch. My mate was a member last year and caught alot of 15-20lbers. The little lake broads green is right next to tuffenll and this is a good lake my mates caught a 21lber out of there.

     

    Braxted resivior is good but i need to be with and adult and my dad won't start fishing till summer. Theres alot of 30ies in there as hennrietta is in there at 31lbs when she was last caught.

     

    The best for blunts is probably squid and octupuss pop-ups. Thats what i find best.

     

    Boreham main lake has been stocked up with carp and theres quite a few 30ies in there.

     

    Hope ive helped

    P.S. Hope to c u on monday im goin boreham mere.

    Really Fat Carp (but not very long)??????

    in Session Carp Fishing

    Posted

    On thursday the 15th of april, i went carp fishing on Ashgrounds, Fennes Fisheries. I caught a really weird carp. It was about 30-40cm but really fat. I could just fit my hand around it.

    Does anyone know why?

    I thought it might be pregnant as it is spawning time but aren't sure.

     

    Thanks for any answers

    Brad

    P.S.Sorry pic didn't come out well so it isn't good enough. Sorry.

    Not sure what to fish for?????

    in Coarse Fishing

    Posted

    Thankz rudd thats what im gonna do. I've got some briliant groundbait for all fish its the sensas explosive feeder with crushed hemp.

    I've got a maggot feeder i just need some magots.

     

    Do you think i should use my carp gear though. Just change the lead to a maggot feeder.

     

    Thanlz for the decision RUDD.

    not catching

    in Session Carp Fishing

    Posted

    I went fishing on saturday 28th and didn't catch a thing or get any bites. My mate went last week and caught a 13lb and a 7lb. And another person caught two 10lbs. I went to the same lake. I was using a simple lead clip with a 1 1/2 oz pear with a size 6 hook. I tried a vary of bait, i used a squid and octupus pop-up, i tried a spicy cury boilie, tutti fruitti boilie and a maple-8 boilie. I can't wait till i go next week, hope i catch sumthin,

    Brad.

    First carp ever

    i have been carp fishing twice and now i have caught my first carp ever. It was about 3.10lbs mirror. i caught it in a small pond in essex, chelmsford, felested. I was using a 10mm strawberry pop-up. The time was about 11 o clock. I'd only been there about 1 hour and i wasn't expecting it.

     

    I can't wait to go again and beat my PB.

    Well done. How long you been carp fishing.

    I went for my second time today(7/feb/2004)in a small pond about 400yards long and caught my first carp after about an hour a mirror.

    It was about 3lbs 10oz-4lbs. when it got hooked i was readdin my mag and suddenly the rod started to bend then i got up and started to play it(my mag nearly blew away.) Then in about half an hour later my mate caught a common a bit smaller in the same place. My mate was coarse fishing and didn't catch a thing. I was really chuffed.

    Gear for carping

    in Session Carp Fishing

    Posted

    Well, im a begginer and i had to look around. I got the basics:

    1. rod&reel which is a good start.

    2.a spool of 10 to 15lbs and put it on to your reel.

    3.leadgers, baiting needle, bating drill, boillie stops, boillies and a lead clip set.

    4.a rod pod with butt grips, swingers and front rest.(ebay is cheap)

    5.(optional)bite alarms swingers will do as a starter.

    6.ready made hair rig.

     

    Then you will be ready for a few sessions of carping.

     

    For more info look on my website it tells yopu rigs and stuff.
