Catch a man a fish, and you can sell it to him. Teach a man to fish, and you ruin a wonderful business opportunity...


"BE AFRAID TO DIE ,UNTIL YOU HAVE WON SOME VICTORY FOR HUMANITY"

Fishing is the chance to wash one's soul with pure air.
It brings meekness and inspiration, reduces our egoism,
soothes our troubles and shames our wickedness.
It is discipline in the equality of men--for all men
are equal before fish.etcp reigns supreme
--President Herbert Hoover , New York Herald Tribune, May 10, 1947.

"I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully." GWB 9/2000


on second thought .....bad idea.

Hi,

I am from the UK but will be spending a lot more time in DC for the next year or so.
I wanted to know the best carp fishing areas around the DC area and any rules/reg I should know when fishing in the USA.

From research the Tidal Basin seems to be a good carp spot but I had a few questions;
  • How much does it cost to fish the Basin and where do I need to go to purchase a ticket?
  • Is it a private syndicate or is it a public fishery?
  • What are the average and record carp weights?
  • Is night fishing the Basin possible and safe?
  • Is the Basin a popular carp lake with fellow carp anglers I can socialise with?
Also can you advise anywhere to get a complete carp setup locally to DC or good online retailers?
I've heard its expensive to purchase carp gear in the US so it may be easier for me to ship my gear from the UK

Any help you can give would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks
