I quote for an American angler
""Carp fight. Not the wild, leaping fight of a bass or trout, but the deep-down, pulsing, and bulldozer kind of a fight that comes only from determined brute”


Carp fishing well its huge in Europe I have fished for them in France and Spain as well as it bring the bulk of my UK fishing.

We use custom bates but Sweat corn works well and as stated bread is tops give it a go if you want some really boring technical stuff let me know and I will show you some off the rigs we use but I warn you for a trash fish us Europeans take it very seriously

As its show some fish here are some I have caught from England and France.
