How to target BIG CARP
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- Everyone loves big carp, and there's lots of tips and tactics we can use to increase our chances of catching them. This month I run through some of my favourite ways of targeting the biggies while fishing a rock hard gravel pit in Germany. Temperatures are soaring over 30+ degrees but there's always a chance or two to be had. I cover mindset, watercraft, baits and rigs for big fish, and manage to get lucky with one of the venue's prized-residents, a massive mirror of 62lb known as Fantail.

Thanks mate
Fantastic carp well done Simon...
Thank you
Brilliant watch si you caught some cracking long commons and that big 60 top angling 🎣 🐟 loving your blogs 👍
Many thanks Gary
@@SimonCrow what dna Bait would you recommend for autumn / winter. Plus you ever used the jag high tippers look perfect for fishing rods high 👍
SLK is my favourite, but I wouldn’t put much out in winter. PB wafters are great for singles also
That’s better feel ready again now keep up the good work ✌🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks Robert
Excellent, as always! 👍
Cheers pal
Your not so bad yourself mrDorset when is your next video out?
@@davidmemory7570 Haha, thanks, mate. I'm not sure Crowy would agree. Next vlog due end of October, all being well. 👍😁
Congrats Simon on another great 👍 vlog , I always enjoy listening to how you do and tackle the waters that you fish . Looking forward to the next vlog .😀😀😉
Thank you Jane, I’m just editing the next one now, will be online end of October 👍
Superb as usual Si 👍
Thanks Andy
Quality as always Simon , some cracking old fish in immense heat .. But I"m still not sure of your German accent though LOL stick to the Wolves twang haha.. Have to agree no sweet & savoury on your pizza !! It's an either or ...Don't the Germans Black Pudding on the pizza ?? lol . Love the vid , here's to the next one . Cheers Nick
😂 lol mate, yeh the accent is something that makes me laugh, I can’t help myself from doing it😂
Awesome video and amazing fish! Also why does everyone hate Hawaiian pizza!? Love myself some of that!! Great video as usual loved the big fish talk as well Rod was a great mind when it came to fish and bait.
Thanks Brian👍
Good one Simon
Thanks Dave
Well done crowy top angling
Thanks pal
Awesome angling. I really like your practical, nuts and bolts approach. Simple rigs. Strong gear, good bait, and right location. I also like the rod security aspect mentioned. I just don't understand the current trend for unsecured rods with rod tips in the air, at take off trajectory! How many people are losing their rods right now, because that is the current Carpy fashion. And a fish dragging round a rod isn't funny!
Thanks pal, yeh there’s lots of crazy fashions in carp fishing today, keep it simple is what I say 👌
Nice work Simon! Looks a lovely venue! What was that throwing stick you were using if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks mate, it was a Nash Cybershot
Nice
I press the like button.before it even started.how’s that for starters .👏🏻
😂 that’s very kind Mark, thank you
Greetings to you from Iraq 🇮🇶 Your carp fish is very large, its weight may exceed 45 kg, approximately equal in size. We have fish 🐟 Carp is our first and favorite fish. A kilo of gram of it is 4 💵 dollars
This is why I don’t promote carp fishing in the West, blessed with a few huge fish wild/public venues & don’t want locals or foreigners taking up few opportunities that exist. Fortunately the angling is rock hard so the want to be “pro carp anglers” come & go.
Well done buddy cracking video as usual
Thanks pal
Cracking fish and top video mate 🎣
Cheers pal
Love your vlogs Simon. You explain things so well, why you do certain things and why you don’t. So it’s informative and very entertaining. Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the kind words Dan 👍
Hi Simon,
Could you please explain why you use a coated braid but remove the coating for your hook link,
Instead of just Using a braided hooklink that never had a coating on when purchased..
I'm intrigued👍👍👍
Andrew.
I could baffle you with sales bullshit but the simple answer is, I’ve used braided hooklinks for about 35 years. When I joined Avid two years ago, they didn’t have any in stock as it was a slow seller and they were going to discontinue it. They had some coated braid though, so I tried peeling the skin off and I liked the look of it. I tried it and caught well with it, and that’s how it all happened. I now prefer it to the braid Avid do because it has a waxy feel to it once you take the coating off. This makes it slightly stiffer but not so much it isn’t supple enough to be sucked in by a carp. It just makes it that bit better at avoiding tangles on the cast. I hope that answers your question 👍
That guy on about pizza was crazy. Number one rule - never eat fish on the bank while you're fishing, it's bad luck...... Plus what kind of monster has tuna on a pizza anyway? 🤮
Great vlog as always Simon. Already looking forward to the next one.👍🏼😁
Thanks mate
Great video!! Great advice and I’ll take that advice with me on my next session!!! Top man 👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thanks Tim
Did he say tuna on the pizza?? But no pineapple?
Pineapple should never be anywhere near a pizza come on Simon but great video mate keep up the good work and tight lines 🎣👍👍
Lol nice one Michael, gotta love a ‘gay pizza’ 👍
Very enjoyable watching as always it's also nice that nothing is over edited and there is no massive ego from your self to which seems to be lost these days tight lines

Well done mate
Thanks Lee
@@SimonCrow mate ive kind of followed you for years and its great to see your still going,i dropped out of the sport for a few years after losing faith in the way we as carp anglers became with each other both in print and on the bank,i was involved with a small bait company and gave 15 years to it,ive never let the fire go out for my deep love of bait making or fishing for that matter,wow ! What a different world it is now,i had all my gear pinched,final straw so to speak,ive just got a set of harrison ballistas off a mate and im slowly building my kit back up,i need a month to recover after a trip to the tackle shop bloody expensive,we had spods and walked our lines down the bank when i was at it,anyway love your vids they inspire me that there are decent lads still about and thats enough for me,take care mate and i cant wait for the next one 😁
Glad you’re getting the bug back again Lee, all the best
can anybody get a "big fish bait" counter haha
Not sure what you’re on about pal?
@@SimonCrow count how many times you say big fish bait
I swear by bird poo. I won £122,250 when dumped on 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
