For anyone considering starting out, we&nbsp;highly recommend&nbsp;you do, its an amazingly fun sport and past time, trust us you won&#8217;t regret it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, we have put together some of the most important things you should know when starting your carp fishing adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A decade ago when we started fishing we made our fair share of mistakes. We want to share our knowledge and experiences with anglers who are starting out. The basics we recommend are to:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Start of simple<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Learn rigs<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Build up gear slow<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keep your budget low<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>And most importantly have fun!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get a fishing license<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, the first thing you need is a course fishing licence, weather your fishing salmon, trout or carp, you need a fishing licence. Its free for kids (under 18&#8217;s), but above that it does cost around 30 quid a year, the last thing you want is the bailiff asking to see your license and you&#8217;ll have to pay a hefty fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start of simple with rigs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Carp fishing can be easy to get the hang of and you don\u2019t need to know how to tie 100&nbsp;knots all of a sudden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend if you are starting to try something out like float fishing for carp. It is one of the best ways in which you can get experience and a feel for playing smaller fish as well as this you will know how to use your equipment effectively and safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These rigs consist of the hook, shots, and&nbsp; a float. You are able to move the float&nbsp;to the correct depth when measuring how deep your swim is, you know you have the correct depth when the tip of the float is just above the surface of the water. When the float disappears into the water you have hooked a fish so you want to lift your rod up to get a good hook-set&nbsp;and start playing the fish.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We found that if your starting out from scratch and want to ensure your rig will work then picking up a pre-tied may be something worth considering, we definitely found these simple yet effective rigs help you gain a better understating of float fishing in general. Here&#8217;s a link to some pre-tied float rigs if you&#8217;re interested, <strong>12x Deluxe Pole float Rigs For Coarse Match &amp; Carp Fishing Tackle<\/strong>. Yes these rigs are technically for pole fishing, however, we found them to work so well when learning the basics so just had to recommend them<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you could try method feeder fishing, this is a very common rig used mostly by match fisherman&nbsp;on small commercial waters, its a great way to get started as its almost impossible not to get a bite on the method feeder. It&#8217;s awesome for building confidence and learning to cast with. The rigs for the method feeder are usually&nbsp;pretty simple, the only thing you have to change is the size of the lead depending on the size of water and fish your after. This is the rig we use for most of our feeder fishing on most waters. If you&#8217;d like a more in depth guide to feeder fishing then feel free to check out our article on method feeder fishing for carp. There we&#8217;ll walk you through exactly what you&#8217;ll need as well as the ins and outs of feeder fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/X2EwQ3_J0Rs\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Build up your gear slow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the big mistakes we made when we starting fishing is that we were a little over ambitious! We\u2019d push ourselves to use the best gear and tie the best rigs and use all sorts of different tactics and tips which was very expensive, time consuming and difficult to implement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s easy to get carried away when you see these monster carp online but first, you need to understand the basics and build up your game before you can attempt this kind of fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start off with more basic and affordable gear and slowly build up your knowledge, experience and understanding then upgrade your tackle accordingly. If you&#8217;d like to know more about what you&#8217;ll actually need to start carp fishing and why then check out one of our other articles on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/improveangling.com\/everything-you-need-to-start-carp-f\/\">what gear do you need for carp fishing.<\/a><\/strong> However, we will be briefly going through what you&#8217;ll need later in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is Float fishing is great<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Float fishing is one of the easiest and effective ways to fish for carp, this is how we started our fishing and still to this day find it enjoyable and exciting way to fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing you need to do when float fishing is to plum your depth, when doing this you sometimes have to adjust the float up and down the line to insure that when you cast your rig out into the water the tip of the float float is above the water allowing you to accurately know when you get a bite. You will know when you have a bite as the float will suddenly go beneath the surface, at this point you will need to pull on your rod just enough to make sure that the hook is secured in the mouth of the fish. This will mean that you will have less chance of a fish falling off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The simplicity of float fishing is why we fell in love it, its engaging and you have to be alert and ready for when that float shoots under. Its a very active style of fishing and defiantly one of the most fun, I personally would always choose couple hours with the float rather than a few days sitting behind a set&nbsp;rods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Basic equipment you will need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We don&#8217;t want to show you list 3 pages long of all the gear there is in carp fishing and tell you &#8220;If you&nbsp; buy this you&#8217;ll catch more&#8221;, because you just won&#8217;t. Yes, there is an infinite amount of tackle out there but you only really need a few things to get started. Here are generally, the most important things that you&#8217;ll need to get started for&nbsp;carp fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Rod &amp; Reel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Landing net&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unhooking mat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hook-link material&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A lead system&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Baiting needle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/temporarydomaincarpreviews.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2019-08-15-15.25_edited-1024x598.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/improveangling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2019-08-15-15.25_edited-1024x598.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/improveangling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2019-08-15-15.25_edited-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/improveangling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2019-08-15-15.25_edited-768x448.jpg 768w, https:\/\/improveangling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2019-08-15-15.25_edited-1536x897.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bait<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here is a short list of baits that&nbsp;work great:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Sweetcorn<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bread<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pellets<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Boilies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pop-ups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maggots<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these Baits are known to work effectively, but you don\u2019t need expensive baits to catch big fish, we\u2019ve caught 15lb+ fish on just a sweet corn hair rig.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding a bit&nbsp;of&nbsp;spice&nbsp;is a great tactic as well, Carp love spice, its very pungent and it adds massive attraction to your hook-bait. Last time we went fishing we lightly coated some boilies with some spicy sauce which worked really well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Spices that work well:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Turmeric<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paprika&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chilli Flakes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Salt &#8211; don&#8217;t add in excess,&nbsp;too much salt is bad for the fish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simple Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1) Pick the right swim<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a walk around when your fishing a new lake,&nbsp;look for splashes and ripples in the water and try to&nbsp;spot where the fish are. It is sometimes time-consuming but can be very rewarding, especially on long sessions. It is so surprising how many anglers just park themselves in the swim closest to their car and complain about not getting bites, you can have the fanciest rig in the world and all the best baits, but if there aren&#8217;t fish in your swim, you won&#8217;t catch any. Simple as that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Polarized&nbsp;sunglasses make spotting carp much easier<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2) Present rigs well<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you\u2019re fishing a new swim on a lake with lots of weeds and snags, its good to check your rig isn\u2019t dragging in weed. If it is then&nbsp;recast&nbsp;and find a better spot where it&#8217;s clear, this will mean that your rig is well presented on the bed and gives you a better chance of bringing a fish in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your line snaps you can tell if it was due to overstrain&nbsp;or a poorly tied knot if the line is&nbsp;cleanly snapped it was due to the strain&nbsp;if it has curls, in the end,&nbsp;it was&nbsp;due to you&#8217;re knot&nbsp;so that means you didn&#8217;t tie it correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3) Persist<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning to fish for carp isn\u2019t hard. It just takes practice, so many novice anglers become frustrated over small things and give up on the lake their fishing. A switch of bait or a change of swim can completely change your fishing session, if you keep persisting at a fishery, you\u2019ll eventually be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it, a quick insight into how you should start carp fishing, if you found this article helpful feel free to check out some of our other @carpreviews.co.uk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carp fishing is an enjoyable and addictive hobby which allows for healthy competitiveness.
