BCLT Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Had a chance to get out to a swim an hour away - been fishing the centerpin for commons and landing a few fish up to 6 pounds isnt cutting it - heres a video of the session and a nice result at the end!

mike rousseau Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Nice fishing, I'm a newbie at carp fishing what is a swim? swim means a specific spot you like to fish... when most of the info you read or see comes from the uk you pick up some of the phrases and slang...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCLT Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 swim means a specific spot you like to fish... when most of the info you read or see comes from the uk you pick up some of the phrases and slang...lol Mike hit the nail on the head! Swim = spot Venue = lake or river Bivvy = tent Boilie = chunk of dough or corn meal Inline pear = big sinker Gutted = upset I lost my fish Chuffed to bits = Happy I got my fish Maize = corn Method mix = a bunch of oats and cream corn that can form a ball to bring fish in Baitrunner = reel that can switch to free spool (loose drag) Ex, I was in my bivvy at the local venue, in my favourite swim, fishing an inline pear with some method mix and maize with a single boilie when a proper common took my rig and the baitrunner wasnt clicked on............ my rod went in the swim and I was gutted but I grabbed it quickly and landed the fish and I was chuffed to bits! That should get you started - the rest is downhill lol...... ps remember.... until you get a baitrunner....... loosen your drag or so say goodbye to your rod when you grab a sandwich, take a leak, check your phone, or have a nap!

Beans Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Great video Shawn...After watching numerous UK videos all winter...[Carp Fishing] Korda Thinking Tackle Season 1 Episode 1 - YouTube It seems strange to see you using one rod only not that I'm an advocate of using more than one...I can just see myself trying to remove three lines at Carp Point when CPH gets a hook-up...
