But when you look fishing... specialy Carp fishing where you have best tents,great chairs

and 8 legged beds... so after you mount rods and prepare everything

around camp there is only one to do... to light a joint and lie on that 8 legged bed and

to enjoy finaly in nature... full circle if you ask me... but i catch this days predators.

Catched last week Northern Pike 81 cm and 6,5 kg,this one wasnt "catch and release"...

she taked lure (Daiwa Duckfin Shad,Spotted Mullet 9cm),

it was good fight and i used PowerPro 5 lb line that i mounted cause of Zander fishing,
was a bit afraid that line will break but nothing bad happend and i landed Pike.

Jig head hook was almost open cause i used some cheapo jig heads... was lucky a bit.


Fish on friends..

Just going through my old threads and seeing who is still on here out of you bunch

Haha

MAN I've moved to a place up the road from a lake complex

Nothing over 15lbs in there but it's good for a days fishing on a bag of sweetcorn even had a beautiful ghost koi hybrid

As a grower it's a funny thing liking hybrids and I'm glad it's a skill I could adapt to fishing

I know this is an old thread but being an obsessed Carp Angler in America I seldom find other Carp Anglers who also have the same passion for growing so had to chime in here.

As an American Carp Angler I am spoiled by the numbers of venues to fish as well as the numbers of wild Carp available to anyone

And just for the record not all Americans are cool with bowfishing for common Carp
Bighead/Silver Carp & Snakeheads are invasive species that most have no problem with harvest

wow eating a carp in the uk for most carp fisherman is like eating your next door neighbours dog.. you just don't do that shit.
all our carp have names in the local ponds and are old and very wary and hard to catch. anyware the don't get caught very often they are easy.

lake was frozen and a 30lber came out plus the other lake was frozen and 2 fish out...

they do become lethargic but they still feed all year round... :)
