Trip 2 – Carp Fishing- 2017

Posted on January 10, 2018 by richardhandel

We are out again after the big carp and it’s going to be a bit of a fresh one, I think.

I arrived down the lake about 2 ish, only to find it was one of those weekends where we all turn up. Unfortunately, I was the last one to arrive. What I have done is to pick an area away from the other anglers and set up as stealthy as possible. With a couple of lucky casts, I was all set. Slowly every half hour or so, I catapulted a pouch full of 10mm Catalyst boilies out. I was fishing the same set up as trip 1, as this was a very shaggy swim.

I was fishing locked up and the rod butts were in the bivvy door! It’s the only safe way to fish this type of swim.

I had no action in the night and was very sheltered from the cold wind and was lucky enough not to get another frost.

With the sun warming up the channel, I was quite hopeful for the last couple of hour’s, it was not to be.

Until next time

Trip 1 – Carp Fishing – 2018

Posted on January 7, 2018 by richardhandel

Its my first trip of 2018 and the weather is pretty rubbish! The lakes have been fishing the same as the end of last year but all the same, it’s so nice to be out and start a new year on the bank.

In fact, I have gone on the easier lake – in the hope of bagging my first fish of the year. It’s going to be a hard one I think but we can only try.

I have been asked to join the Evolution Carp Tackle team, which is great news as their artificial baits are second to none. I will write more in the future but above are a couple of item I like the look of very much. The Corn Stacks, the pre tied cocktail bait ronnie rigs, with a small Stix Mix bag made up of Spotted Fin products this combination has got to pick me up a fair few extra fish this year.

The maggot cluster rod is just on the corner of the overhanging tree to my right, with a small amount of Betafin Pellets and some broken Catalyst boilies, it’s all set. The orange corn stack rod is going to be a roving rod, well that’s the plan…got to spot a fish first!

With no joy within the first couple of hours, I was off down the other end of the lake, looking for another likely area. The warm margin to the right was looking just perfect, with another bag on, I flicked the baits out again and crossed my fingers.
