Hello all,
I live in HK, Im a Brit from Canterbury in Kent and have been out here for the last 15 Years(God that was quick)!!!
Just a little background info:
In the UK I fished a good old mix of waters from 1.5acre pools, Estate lakes to Big open Gravel Pits and some of the circuit waters in the 80's.
And have been lucky to have fished with and along some of the Top anglers at the time!
On to HK! Carp are not really targeted in HK apart for the Food aspect(shock) This is Asia!
There is a small band of Gwailos(foreiners) targeting Carp in the UK style.
ie: Baits, rigs, methods and Carp care!
Most of the waters in HK are either Reservoirs or old fish ponds(for market fish) Some of the Ressies are Huge and very deep:

But with some Huge fish! Carp to over 40+ Grass Carp to over 50+ and Big head Carp to 98lbs, last Saturday a 35KG BHead was landed
I am trying this small Ressie at the Mo and will be there again this Sat:
My main approach is close to med range fishing with Corn, peanuts and homemade boilies, with good standard hookrigs, I tend not to play with bait and rigs once I have confidence in them!
I even have gone back to the original"Bolt Rig"!fished on a slackish line=great takes, Proof:
I hope this is of interest to 1 or 2 of you, any questions? just ask, Tight lines all!
The bailiffs bike!
I hope this is better, I have a brain sche now!
