dose anyone fly fish for suckers?i have always wanted to try it.
-
the white suckers that run up the rivers from Lake Erie have been said to
reach 10lbs.
-
Iam a BIG fan of suckers.i use to spend alot of time fishing for them in
a small river near by.but the sizes were never nothing to write about.
i maybe had one that when about 3lbs and it was a white sucker.the red
horses were all pretty much small and ran about the same size as the jumbo
chubs!i always used corn and occasinally a worm for baits but you can catch
a few on bread too.i wish i had a good sized river near by to fish for suckers
in Feb/Mar as well as carp.
-
that IS a serious deal.you wont find anything like that any place else
thats for sure.when i first started upgrading to English tackle,did so
over a period of time rods,reels,then pod,ect and it was ALL cheap stuff
but if i was to have purchased it all at once it would have cost a good
$400-$450 just for a basic 2 rod and full pod set up.you guys should grab one
or three for your kids while you can.

JEEEZE Ed,that catfish is HUGE!!!did you get that in Clear Lake? what is that
a blue?or the world largest channel?.....lol...
-
''i wish someone could have helped me out when i first started'' ....lol...
like you had NO help....lol....
-
Brian,what are you now,a walking,talking add for Royal Carp?whats up with
that?
-
i find that interesting that theres clealy big carp in Sweden.,but i have never heard
anything about them.i never hear about Uk anglers or any anglers beeting feet
to take trip up there.its always France,or Spain,ect that they choose to spend
their time.i cant help but think these waters have very low pressure compared
to the rest of Europe?i alwyas thought the climate was too harsh in Sweden
(except the south) to have many carp.its good to know tht theres alot more
going for Sweden than justv some big pike..lol...thanks again for sharing the pics.
-
Globe,fantastic pics!is that first mirror posted from Africa?also is there good
carp to be had in Sweden?most likely in the south?thanks
-
Nice pics Matthias,all the pics you post are nice!
-
Karl, i spent a good deal of the CCC talking to Alex about getting one.
but he says he wont sell me one because they retail for too much.
one day maybe,lol.
-
nothng wrong with the Royal tackle being affordable for people,ect,ect.
i wish Alex would decide to get a healthy stock of tackle from Amiuad Peche,
CarpSounder,ect that would be awsome.maybe after things really get going for him.
-
brian,exclent pics man.
-
South America IS the final frontieer!!!I hope you make a trip
down there sometime,Globe.from the reaserch i have done
on the subject(you have to really look for info)i have NO doubt
that you can find HUGE carp scattered all around SA.
Southern Brazil,Aregentina,Chile are good places to start looking
if you ask me.
-
the state stocks 1,000's of channels that look just like that.some are
darker yellow,some lighter yellow.i dont think they are albino at all.
-
those are quite common around here.
-
possibly.............
-
thanks for explaining the boat handling Globetrotter.
-
Terry,Globe.... iam curious has to how one anchors a boat in such depths with
flowing water?is it difficult to keep a boat steady,steady enough to fish on the bottom i mean?sorry for the dumb question,i really dont know much about watercraft,ect.
-
i think carp move these little streams alot,and some nice sized carp
take a stroll up them as well.i once had a 25lb grass carp from a stream
half the size of the one your fishing.i think they venture out of lakes or larger
creeks/rivers into these small waters alot when the water gets high.theres
alot of food up i these areas(musssles,crays,and about anything that falls
off the overhanging trees).sometimes these carp get too curious and spend
too much time up these streams while the water is high,and end up getting
stuck in the shallows because water has whent back down on them
-
they have netted them much larger than that in China.but i suppose
its rod/line record for the US.
-
those Supercast pips are excelent baits.i have always had good results on
the all the SA baits that Paul has sold.
-
Brian, i experienced something identical to what you discribed.the
float just disapeared
wtf???? and the line started going out.i thought maybe a muskie or something grabbed the float,but when i got it back there were no teeth marks in the float.the case remains unsolved -
great pics as ussual,Globe whats the largest carp you have
taken from Lake Klaserie?
