Carp Fishing at an Old Estate Lake - How To Catch Carp In SILT

Carp fishing on silty lakes presents a new challenge. Carp rigs which work well in silt, and my approach to these waters are both explained in this video.

I created Fishing Tutorials to help people learn about fishing and catch more fish!

That break away from fishing has done Alex well, he looks years younger 😆 good work as always Carl

The world needs more people like you Carl. Another quality video and another fan’s dream come true.

I'm surprised you guys haven't done a "Nighter" tutorial yet, everything you need, etc suggesting for a friend...

A few further tips from my many years of fishing on lower stocked silty lakes would be to first cast out an old rig and check if it comes back clean or whether the hook comes back covered in silk weed/dead leaves. If it comes back clean after half a dozen casts then a bottom bait/wafter will be fine but otherwise a pop-up rig will be needed (I like a ronnie for leaves/chod and a taller hinge rig/chod for silk weed). Next would be ensuring to hit the clip and take the rig down gently to avoid plugging in the mud, if you smash it in then you'll not be doing yourself any favours and you'll feel a noticeable resistance followed by a pop when you come to retrieve it. I also trap the hookbait between two nuggets of foam to ensure it has only got to drop the length of the hooklength onto the silt rather than being dragged in by the lead which ensures the rig is clean and presenting when it settles, the other bonus is that you'e got two targets to aim for when the foam pops up if you're fishing within catapult range. With helicopter rigs I find that it is important to chase the upper bead with the lower stop, I find that more than about 4 inches between them gives the fish too much wiggle room to spit the hook. When free baiting with boilies a big edge if you think you might be waiting more than a few hours for a bite is to pre soak the boilies in either water or water+liquid food for at least 24hrs so they are completely saturated otherwise they can soak up the scent of the silt as they hydrate and become a lot harder for the fish to find.

I love to see kids get right into an activity that they really believe in - Well done Ace, and well done the dad for being a real dad!

[Vistelios]

one of the few channels where i dont feel like im getting yelled at hahaha, love the channel buddy, gets me excited to get out fishing again

[GoneFishingVlog]

This kid knows how to fish. The way he handles the rod after a take and the way he treats the fish after the catch is awesome. His going to be a serious fisherman once he is into his teens. We will see him competing in the YCCC 🥇 hats off to his father 🫡

I love this vid I like to see that you are working with your fans and I like to see that you are going fishing without your brother and well done Carl ☺️

Feeling very run down after a weeks fishing. Just what I needed whilst resting up in bed.
Glad you’re still posting bits.
I have my own fishery if you want to come test it out for a week on me?
Few unknowns still in the water.
Either way thanks again for the upload dude

[alanlee]

Thanks so much for posting this! Hands down the best beginner tutorial explains all you need to do for people who don’t have experience.

Ace has it in the bag on that lake.. nice work as always Carl, solid with that rig..

You're a very lucky guy Carl, fishing all these lovely places and the lucky people who you go and fish with, the video's as usual are great for people to
learn how to make rigs and set ups for fishing, for new fishermen and experienced ones too, fantastic video's Carl, love them, keep it up mate x take care

Ace VS Carl...that's something I'd like to see:) that little chap is great little fisher!!

[dcdfmbf]

Great tutorial again! keep it up! Also, you should try fishing at twiners fishery!

[davidholding]

That’s awesome great to see young ones enjoying fishing as well as he smashed it great angling young man and top video Alex mate

A flat inline lead sits better on heavy silt Carl and you can slow down the descent by using a pva bag with pva nuggets in to stop the lead digging in . Also sometimes a lighter lead works, only party digging in allowing for bolt rig action . Good luck, nice video .

I just want to say ‘thankyou’ to Carl (& Alex) only started coarse fishing in August ‘20. Watching the tutorials (and got the boys books) had my best session ever today. Thanks to the ‘Method Feeding for Carp video’ followed it. Today caught some 6lb Carp. Keep up the good work.
