Good to know! Those Dutch are everywhere.
-
Ah I didn't know that, although I prefer to offer limited pictures so I can keep track of my own images.
Willem sounds awfully Dutch!? Are you?

If the purpose of resizing is posting on a forum , I recommend ImageShack..click upload images, you can choose as many photos as you want simultanious, click on the resize window and choose the format you like. ImageShack will do the rest. Posting it you have to do yourself though.

Not sure about that Moon, but most definitely the carp must feel a whole lot better!
It was a memorable moment for sure, I hooked a few minnows before on my rig, caught a few pike, (retrieving my carp rig with a boilie that is), hooked a huge eel with corn and lets not forget the cast iron and hardwood bench that gave me an unforgettable moment as well.

Yes Iain, for sure Danny should be worried, after the first movie clip I know nobody wants to be seen with anything Korda. Very true words were said about carpanglers with zero experience being 'hooked' with over the top, very expensive stuff.
Something I often mention while doing a presentation; '80% of the stuff offered for carpangling, will definitely catch carpanglers and maybe even carp too!'
:lol: -
This is the second clip of the very funny Korda sponsored kid,..the first one [hilarious] was withdrawn after a few days, guess why!
-
I have two witnesses who where equally flabbergasted.
Scouts honor! -
You're right, the 4/0 was bronzed, discolored and pretty badly bent..I also think I caught this carp within a short period after it was lost. A strange combination indeed,..2 good quality swivels and a snaplock with a piece of SpiderWire attached. I zoomed in a bit more, but it was not a perfect shot. You can see the discoloration though.
And we too had several recovered lost rigs, the most memorable also within hours of losing it. So its not unique, hooking the ring was though.
I don't think I will pull this off again!
-
Every now and than something unexplainable happens. I land a nice carp and to my surprise I find this!
My hook hooked the ring of a swivel, connected to a snaplock + swivel connected to a 4/0 hook.
A once in a lifetime event I guess.

It will work without the Speedo's too Mario, but maybe you prefer this method...it will bring the mais out even further... just hope there are no aligators around to spoil it.

Sorry but if you want to prebait any substancial amounts forget the spod and use a groundbaiter,..Cobra groundbaiters are the originals.
As I frequently prebait up to 200 lb a session you can imagine the spod is for masochists .

The most ridiculous photographs I've seen since the Nash cataloque.
It's really a shame after catching such a nice fish to 'rape' it using an ultrawide lens.
It's not a personal remark Tommy, but this subject has been posted so often in Holland and Belgium with always the same comments. The viewers here who are less eligible concerning 'trophy shots' would almost think somebody caught a 5 ft, 200 lb'er.
bWe're neighbours by the way! I'm Dutch.

Hi Scott,
Studying the fish/photo I found that as perfect a common it is , on one side...all scales lining up...the other side really NO scale did fit any pattern. I'm quite sure it is not a disease, but I never saw it as extreme as this one.
Miguel,... you caught my fish?? Never!
I don't think you can catch it again, it's emigrated to Canada. -
Maybe you understand my surprise when I turned it over !!
-
But sometimes nature has its own way, what would you call this ? A fully scaled mirror I guess ?
-
Hi guys,
The 'scattered' scaled commons carry the recessive mirror gene, which is why they show these random scale patterns. Although we also call them 'commons', we have a special name for them in the Benelux.
Some carp have this scattered pattern all over their body, like the picture shows from this Larry carp.
But I would still call it a 'scattered scale common'.

David,
I hope you like this one. Just released , and you see many tiny fish around it.
-
Isn't it a great feeling watching whales, dolphins,seals etc, especially from close up...this picture I took on the St Lawrence close to Tadoussac, on a trip with my son. Can you believe the river is ±20 miles wide there !!
I can recommend it to anybody.
-
Tim,
Sometimes I get quite a few between 13,5 and 14,5 kg, its odd but most are more chunky...your 14kg looks more like the fan-tailed one, I didn't weigh mine. And I guess both were odd balls.

Wow Tim , I really like those 'fresh painted' colors on a carp.
Although it is a bad shot I thought to share this fan-tailed carp . It's a Larry carp too [of course], A tall 98cm and VERY strong.
-
Mark you should know better than to prebait pop-ups !
Cheers, this one is on you !
-
Hahaha, a real good one. BTW you know this is a Dutch fishing magazine?
The carp is /was from Belgium that's true , but this carp is dead.

I'm not a photographer, but do know what not to do by now. I often see pictures that need some TLC and always offer assistance. So if you need help don't hesitate to ask me.
I hope Jérôme won't mind posting his picture as an example..its published in NACA anyway.
Always sent the biggest photo file you got, Jérôme's was a very small file, I'm waiting for the original.
