Well I have waited patiently to get on the rivers again.

 

Had the rods set up on Wednesday ready for the off at midnight friday.

 

And I am still waiting

 

Never seen floods like it.

 

Put on chest waders and went down to a local pit to see how bad the flooding was. Saw two Carp, biggest about 18lb swim past me on a f*****g cycle path!

 

Water on the cycle path about 3.5ft deep. f**k knows where they will end up.

 

Suppose its back to canal carping for another couple of weeks

Had a day on The River Derwent Monday,.........cracking day

 

Jammy b*****d Any good?

 

 

Hi Joe,

 

When I get time I will go through some canal carp pics and put them up. Previous years he canals around by me (Midlands) have fished well for carp. Plenty of doubles up to 19lb and a smattering of 20lb+ fish. Its great because there are no named fish, you never know what you are striking into and they fight like stink. My mate has had the best we know of so far around here at 25lb.12oz

 

This year however has been a real grueller on the canal.

 

The silver lining though s that I like canal Zander fishing and have been hearing of a few good uns coming out.

 

Might have a week or two at them until river is sorted.

 

Regards

Quality mate, can't stop laughing.

 

Thinking of going fishing in the morning on my local (stillwater), weather depending.

 

Never fished a river, wouldn't mind though.

 

looking forward to the pics of the canal carp
