Carp Fishing

[geordie271]

I am currently living in Germany where the Carp Fishing is exellent, Is there any fisheries local (i come from Wheatley Hill-Durham) that have a good stock of larger fish, 20LB+. Ive fished Shotton Pond-a place in trimdon-big fishery in thirsk but im after the BIG BOYS.

Any help appreciated.

what daft rules has she got martin

before you start you will get a 10 minute talk on the rules of the lake

there no red maggot, the owners think the dye in the maggots give the fish cancer, she got state of art cctv if you do anything wrong e.g swing in a 1oz roach instead of landing it you will get a 15 min talk on why not to swing fish in, you can\'t fish the carp lakes until you had a assessment by one of there coaches. i seen one the the coaches tie a hook on with a granny knot!!, it a good lake plenty of fish just the owners and coaches are hardwork

thanks for the info on the angelof the north fishery will have a look at the website.....u think that is bad at her lakes, over here in Germany you have to sit a exam before u can fish anywhere..it takes 3 months to do and u have to go to college to do it..its the only country i know what does it...You are also supposed to catch and kill anything over the specified sizes given on your dayticket if u dont its an automatic ban from fishing for 1 yearand you lose your fishing schine (lisense).the baillifs over here are like the SAS, pounce on you when u aint expecting it..so thats why i use a lot of the british forces lakes where the normal english rules apply.heres a link for you to see the fish that we catch....http://www.freewebs.com/tongrubefishing/..i use the German lakes when fishing for big cats or (hecht) pike.
