There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

There is no greater fan of fly fishing than the worm.

i love night fishing its grreat wot i normally do is go on saturday morning about 8:00 and then stay till the following day like 1 or 2 i fished the same spot and i caught 4 nice carp up to 14lb in the day and in the night after 1 caught 9 carp up to 17lb so it shows u night fishing is better

two rods set up on bite indicators with big cubes of luncheon meat on one and a worm on the other. I got some small fish and i had a good bite but i got snapped. And i had them starlites so i was float fishing until 3:30 am and got up at 7 so i was knackered

i like luncheon meat but i wouldnt use it when carp fishing its not a clever idea because all the little fish will nibble it go on a bollie or a pellet and you will catch more carp and bigger ones

the pond is rarely fished so i dont think they are used to pellets or boilies ive tried halibut pellets but didnt get anything. your right about the little fish nibbling luncheon meat. i cast a cube in and when i check the bait it has been nibbled into a ball shape.

i would most prablly use like a fedder like maggot open ended fedder method fedder something like that i would give bollies ago though

barbel master · #9 07-31-2009, 11:26 AM
