Carp Fishing Tips and Articles

Lots of info on here.

Personally i have never made bollies but they seem to be quite a bit of work... doughbait seems to be easier ... and maybe try corn/maize?

nice fish! It seems that the ladies are outfishin the boys lately lol!

Great looking carp ... that thing will never want to come to shore if you foulhook them

I recognize that cement and water! Now i can go get myself some dinner ... are these good BBQ-ed?

Great shots dsn!

just a bump after the update...

btw dsn if transportation is the problem as wolfville said it can most likely be arranged ...

yeah I'm trying to teach my daughter that you're NOT supposed to poke their eyes out! And she gets PIEVED when we release the fish - she screams at me for letting them go... I'll upload a vid of it at some point....

lol she seems to be a natural for the white bucket team!

Thanks for sharing!

that's some serious wave there... must have been hard to bottom fish...Good thing the BBQ's around

thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed reading it

That carp's FAT! Congrats on the PB.

hm. now i'm going to think twice before introducing my girlfriend to fishing...i may have more time to get out but i'll catch smaller/less fish. hmm... what do you say Rich?

Great report! For some reason the fish seemed darker today ... it's probably just me. WTG!

Great read. Thanks for sharing!

looks like a fat perch, nice pike too!

Welcome aboard!

Great news Dave. Wish him a speedy recovery and he can be back on the bank with you in no time

uh... the good ole "my camera died when i hooked that 60inch muskie"

I'll be back in school in Sept, maybe we can hook up then. Great to finally "meet" another angler from Loo

how about sticking an arm with a vertically held pike on that trout?

Welcome to the board Tim. Where do you go? (for school)

i'm a University of Waterloo student myself ... currently on my co-op work term so i'm in Toronto

Although we say it might be "crowded" ... that swim does have quite a bit of room, it's just that with the long rods anglers might need alittle more room to place their bait/rig.

There should be numbers in that area ... whether they choose to bite or not i won't know lol. The fish in my avatar is caught there. It seems that May 17th will be a good day for everyone ...

Saturday would work for me, will probably show up with two boys. Thanks for organizing this.

 

BBQ may be a problem ... who's going to man the BBQ when we're all hauling ;-)

 

BTW, Port Credit swim gets pretty crowed by carpers during the weekends in May, if more than 10 show up we might have to practice accurate casting for a few days before going there LOL

BBQ? i have already taken that into account, i know that your two boys will be coming ... and when they say "daddy we're hungry" ... i don't think you have much of a choice.

I noticed it gets crowded at P.C. last time we were there ... maybe some of us will have to set up our Pods at the rockpiles lol. Skyway at Hamilton is good but we'll have to see if everyone's willing to travel that way ... let me know guys and girls!

that's awesome for 40 minutes of fishing. So when's your master going to get his first pike?

Many great places to fish in and around our own backyard.

Congrats on yet another PB bly!

i agree with scuro lol ... cliff i think the ladies are starting to outfish you ... better catch up

dang that's a nice ride! Congrats!

wow! nice fish man... must have been an awesome fight. congrats on the PB

MJL probably said it all for the bait if your just trying it out... i'll add a few things though

When you get to your fishing spot, start off with throwing a few handfuls of corn out to where you plan to drop your rig, it will attract to fish to come over. Use a reel with a larger spool if you have one, when you have a fish on it might take quite a bit of line out.

If you're planning on holding onto your rod, hang on tight ... or if you plan on putting on the ground using a tree branch/rod holder, loosen your drag so when a carp takes your bait, your rod won't fly out ... trust me, even a 10lber are quite strong and your rod will be in the water before you know it.

Good luck and let us know how you make out!
