“For carp the really early days of spring are al

“For carp the really early days of spring are all about finding sheltered warm water and the sun. I will spend much of my time looking in the shallow bays, reedbeds, south facing snags etc., really hunting out the sightings. This is the best chance to catch the fish off guard at prime time and before they have been really pressured once again. One of the key triggers at this time of year are the big hatches that occur when the sun is higher in the sky and can penetrate the layers. We all know the carp is cold blooded and so will seek the warmest layers of water, which generally means the upper layers of deeper pits and any shallow or sheltered areas will always get special attention from the fish seeking to absorb solar energy. Once the months move on and the water temperatures become more stable, the metabolism of the carp will be on fire and I will usually react with a heavier baiting response to areas of activity and then gauge the reaction.”

After 9 months away from the bank @misspickford was understandably blown away when this absolute corker rolled over the net cord!

This mid-thirty mirror being a new PB for Catherine, who fished a blowback rig incorporating our Tungskin hook-length.

“As air temperatures rise the water will obvious

“As air temperatures rise the water will obviously warm up too but remember that it is the surface layers that feel the effects first and this is where the carp will want to be - bearing in mind that it is a cold-blooded creature, and therefore comfort will be its no.1 priority.

So, my spring fishing always involves fishing my baits in the upper layers whether it be zigs or on the bottom. If I’m fishing on the deck it’ll be either on shallow bars, plateaus or into the margins where I’ll be looking to exploit little windows of opportunity fishing when groups of fish can drift in close, literally feet from the bank on a warm afternoon breeze. A little trap is all that is required, my favourite being a couple of grains of corn, remember that the carp are just waking up, and unlike you and I might imagine, they aren’t really hungry at all, so singles or tiny scatters tend to work best.”
