[utubebenjy]

where about do you live cos you must live near if you are baiting up regularly do you live in like cottenham or earith ?

[TheCarpCatcher]

@utubebenjy no i have a car mate and you just have to put in the extra effort

[TheFisherman96]

What new reels does martin have there???

[TheCarpCatcher]

@TheFisherman96 dunno he did say but cannot remember

[CarperArthur]

looks like it would be a good laugh to fish along side you haha, the deformed fish scene is brilliant!

[TheCarpCatcher]

@CarperArthur lol

[lovecarp1]

hi mate just wonder if you have ever used halibut boillies and are they any good.

happy fishing

[TheCarpCatcher]

i have and i caught nothing on them.

If you want a really good fishmeal use my goldfish boilies available from the premiumcarpfishing website

[hgsfisher]

iv uses them on a hair rig 8mm are the best im my oppinion

[wacky0pker]

Hi

i was just wondering what rod and reel you use, because im doing some research before i start carp fishing. Thanks chris.

[TheCarpCatcher]

I use Greys prodigys 2.75 TC and Shimano 10000 xtea reels.

Good gear.

[wacky0pker]

[TheCarpCatcher]

rendering pt2 now uploading soon:)

[ecoangle]

Good bit of winter fun eh Steve? Not quite our normal stamp of fish, and to be fair most of the fish in that lake are in reasonable nick. HAPPY DAYS!

[TheCarpCatcher]

Indeed and a lad named skinner had a pukka dark fat 20.8 common last week

[michigancarpangler]

That is indeed the ugliest carp I have ever seen!!

[TheCarpCatcher]

Haha yes!

Awful eh? ah well more fish to come and they get better.

Want to see part two buddy?

[michigancarpangler]

Nice 1 mate,i shall be keeping my eye open,while enjoying our 64 f weather at the mo!!! :O the temperatures rising over here matey so i'll hopefully soon have some Michigan carp to share on your site.

[doversole]

that was done by novice anglers i expect. its discusting.

[TheCarpCatcher]

You know what I think? K33n3dy is right. I have seen this before. Carp can get fin rot real bad sometimes. However it can start from a bacterial infection caused by bad angling.

[nuffinbutfishing]

wierd! i've foul hooked fish before and they seem to put up a better fight. did you check it mouth to see if the hook had bee in its mouth?

[TheCarpCatcher]

yes and no did not check its mouth but looking at the film it seemed ok.

[rehamkram]

That's one handicapped fish? Wish our winters were like that lol. Great video. Thanks

[TheCarpCatcher]

Your welcome mate and glad you liked it.

i laughed my ass of when i saw it.

How are your winters?

[tegiede]

what an unluchy fellow...that must be a private fishery,in the wild he couldn't escape the pikes,even the finless ones:P

[TheCarpCatcher]

good point and thats the great thing about nature.

[k33n3dy]

[TheCarpCatcher]
