i remember that dude. nice guy and caught quite a few at town if i remember right.
top fish

congrats jerome on a beauty!
just a quick thought i had after catching a mirror earlier this year. it actually went two tone on the bank and then took forever to swim off.
bearing in mind this was around the spawn do you guys think these fish are always two tone or just change once you hook them through stress?
to back up my theory, i liken it to a cuttlefish or a squid that can change colour to match the background or display bright colour when threatened. any thoughts?
-
is my sound broken or has that dude been on the helium again?
last time i heard something like that was in the dukes of hazard.

hi guys.
i had a similar thing recently where they were very line shy. i changed to a flouro zig rig fished six inches to a foot under the surface with a long lead core leader fished slack style and had forteen screaming runs for 11 hard fighting english mirrors. bait was a d rigged dog biscuit.
hope this helps you nail em!

i've seen similar things myself when fishing yourside and have had them
virtually taking my rigs out with their crossbows but those photo's are just
repulsive.
maybe i just dont get it living in a different country where you would be
crossbowed for doing that but im not going to sit on the fence. what kind
of mentality of person would get "enjoyment" from doing that?
each to their own? no way!
i would say to the perpertrators, "get a life followed by a respectable hobby" .
ukcarpintheusa, agree,send them to the local paper.
-
well done.
if its stays like this i will be very happy for bot of them. top blokes and ambassadors for the sport of carp fishing in america!
those photo's are superb and you can really see wat it means to tal.
can't wait to see the news 8 austin tv site!

Plus, I'm sorry to say this as I know it'll come as a shock, it is only a fish. Certainly NOT something to compare burying a human being for...
lets hope he dosent decide to bury you because he could be digging for quite
a while big man

think that fish on the bottom might of had something called dropsy.seen goldfish doing this and it sometimes causes them to swim upside down.its to do with the swim bladder i think but not totally sure.
very interesting stuff though jerome.well done mate.
would love to try this out with my rigs to either boost or destroy my confidence!

I got trapped in a rainy FL hotel for about 4 days. Did manage to write another MidWest Outdoors article as well. Finished "River Carping" by Neil Wayte, see report elsewhere. Couldn't force myself to watch much TV.
I think a post like this should count as more than one toward my attaining guber status like yourself and Keith
brian,the first chapter on the arun is our local river! its where we are fishing this summer and also where james and my uk pb's come from!
andy skinner is one of my mates and the mirror that dave eaton is holding has fallen to james rods!
i love it down there! its as far removed from the busy uk scene as you can get.its also the second fastest flowing tidal river in the uk so a real challenge.
we used 500kg of bait in a month last year and will be giving it the biggun again this year!
liked the list but when are you going to do the double dutch cockney version

i have finally sorted this video out.sorry i had to cut it in the middle,kind of spoils it a little but hope you all like it!

just want to say that this method actually worked better tan standard euro style!
got the fish up to te surface quick away from the rocks and stopped huge amounts of weed building up on the braid which made landing the bigger fish a nightmare.
-
BTW, noticed Colin will also be going. Good choice, your odds got a bit better. Slightly better than a one-legged man in an ass kicking contest.
wish i was coming.brian's bookcase done it for me!
whats paylaking?
-
jerome,first thanks for the zippy link and this new google one!
just been through the verification process! ridiculous!
cut my clips down below 25mb and neither will play them.
the google video tells me to attach mpeg,wmv etc when it is already?
yours seems to work perfectly though mate.
will pm you.
-
quality,cheers for that

Was that a big ball of groundbait below the float?
its pv 1 colent mixed with layers pellet and calf milk.the rig is a bog standard float/leger using a method feeder and a mcf marker float thats normally used for depth finding.i used a stop knot up the line for depth with a few beads in various places to make the rig run.it was particularly useful (which i found by accident!) combating the masses of floating weed that was clogging up conventional bottom rigs making reeling the carp in a total nightmare.
-
well aint no tutorial involved really.just decided to fish like that for a number of reasons.
me and my friends fish a rock hard place in the uk where you get so into tunnel vision with the euro style that you just need a bit of release sometime!
my brother and i did over 70 nights fishing for one fish this year and loved every minute of it! we came to the u.s for a holiday but found ourselves fishing really hard during the wcc.after we had about another eight days fishing and really hauled but it became a mission again to land large carp.still loved going for the big ones but wanted to break it up a bit.ive caught fish over twice the size of the float carp but it really put the enjoyment back into carp fishing after such a slog in the last year!
i so love that st larry!
the tactic worked extremely well as will anything if your on em!
-
sorry about the trial and error thing
does this work?

tried to upload a movie for you, but it just seems to sort of hang up. Tried to preview having browsed an attached but that didn't work, and when I tried to go back it posted the message without attachment. the movie is 31mb, I'm not sure if this is too big?
-
jerome,that is absolutely superb.what a great idea.as has been said,those kids wont forget that in a hurry.nice one
-
nice one scott! must rank high up in your pb list?

hi all
had the pleasure of fishing next to this guy second day by the power station and he really did
keep you amused for the full twelve hours of fishing.
there were loads of local castalot bass boys down there and they were truly amazed at the carp
fishing that happened before them.we let one of them a rig to try after showing a knotless knot
and hair rig which promptly got snapped off by an angry carp trying to shake free of the5ft bass rod.phone and brian however gave him a rig that caught a 21lb fish!
amazing day and the word of carp fishing got truly spread that day although phone did 75% on that penninsula that day.
on wednesday,my brother and i got up early to fish the main lake the other side of this channel and were rewarded with some lovely 3ft long male fish between 25&30 lb fairly early.as the sun came up a group of the new converts turned up with yellow balls tied hair rig style to their bass rods saying they were going to go get a mat and a proper landing net cos they didnt want to hurt the fish.that was one of the best bits of my trip knowing people like phone,brian and the rest of you great bunch of people are spreading the word in america about how good carp fishing really is.
thanks all of you,loved it
andrew
p.s is there any truth in that phone fishes with euro tackle .ie rod pod and alarms when away from the atc and only uses that gear to have a laugh at the europeans?!if this is so, hes even funnier than i thought already!
Big Fish still on the Boilie Shops....
