Hi guys anyone from Spain or knows how the fishing works out there as my friend has a place out there and was thinking of taking advantage of that n go fishing in Spain. Now I know you can fish the Ebro but don’t think he’s close to that but he is close to some lakes but don’t know how to get licenses and stuff

Guys I'm thinking of giving the zigs a try keep hearing so much about them but honestly don't really no how to use them. I have tried a few times but failed. I think I know how to make them and have a zig float to make life a bit easier but what size zig would I use with the float I was thinking 3ft but not sure. Also when making them what hooks would you suggest as was thinking mixas. And how would you know where to start depth wise or would it depend on the air pressure say if it was high work your way down if its low work ur way up or always start from the bottom?? Most importantly can u still spod out over the top this time of year?

Typical plan to go fishing for my birthday and the lakes are frozen over! How will it effect fishing? As I’ve herd mixed opinions that when the ice goes it can fish really well and also herd that they shut down

Guy my friends receiver stopped working the other day do any of you know where you can get a fox rx3 receiver either fixed of a new one as I've been looking online and can't find one only find the odd complete set.

Guys I'm looking at getting a new bed chair and was wondering if you guys had any recommendations as there not exactly cheap. But I'm thinking about getting one that will suite someone who's 6ft as I have one now but my feet come over the end also one that you don't really feel the frame on your knees. Cheers

Guys me and a friend are trying to crack a new water and we've been walking the lake talking to people trying to learn what we can but a lot of people claim to not know what works so we're going to have to do it the hard way and run a few tests and possibly blank a few times but when testing a bait to see if it works how long would you test it for before trying a different bait? As my friend caught one the other day on pink fake corn but being this is the only one we've caught I don't know if it was a fluke just in the right place at the right time. But at the same time I don't want to ignore it in case either corn or pink is part of the key so I was thinking of going with a small pink pop up while he uses pink corn. But not sure how long should persevere before changing as you never know when your on the fish as they are quite shy and don't really show themself to much

Guys I've been fishing a easyish commercial and have done really well there before but the last few times ive really struggled even when on the fish all I can think is maybe the bait or I'm just going through one of them bad spells so I was wondering how you would approach a commercial? That way I can compare with what I'm doing and change bits.

Guys has you every thought about surface fishing and how easy it can be to draw the carp in. Now is there anyway we can do this on the bottom? As I've thought about fishing bread on the bottom and soaking some mixers so they sink but the idea of the bread on the bottom not lasting to long getting softer every second make me question the idea and then I think about the time I tried topping my luncheon meat with bead and done quite well on it makes me think hmm maybe there is a way.

Only gone and smashed it in france we got the double peg as planned and managed to land 16 fish with a few lumps as well I had two 50s biggest being a 57lb and my mate had the lake record fish at 62.14lb. Thanks for all your help especially you yonny as I took your advice on how many rods to put out and ended up only fishing two rods and caught the most fish!😀

When a fish jumps out the water what does it mean as I notice sometimes they jump head and shoulders out the water and other times they just poke their head out. Is there a difference between the two as I herd that one is a sign to say their there feeding and another means something different I can't remember.

I personally always struggle with the marker float and second guess everything I find yet I know what the signs are with the tap tap being gravel and and when it plugs in its usually silt but how do you know when your going over a bar or come across a dip in the lake bed without having to bring the float to the surface? Also what things would you look for as everyone says about finding the gravel spots but what if there is no gravel or its a mainly gravel bottom? Or is it just a case of if the lake bed is mainly soft find the harder spots and if its hard/gravel look for the soft spots? Also where would you place your rods on these spots that you've found would you fish somewhere in the middle or stick to the edges of the spot??

Sorry I should of said not to find fish lol more for mapping out the bottom of the lake and finding the depths. My bad!

Is there any major difference between a deeper pro plus to a bait boat fish finder?? As a friend is thinking of getting one for his boat when I suggested the deeper as you can attach it to a boat or cast it out. What do you guys think as I've never used the boat ones.

Anyone know of any shops/ companies that sell second hand bait boats?

Talk to me what do you mean by 6 rods on top of them may push them out? Is it because the angling pressure in one area of the lake or did u just mean 6 rods on one spot? As the swim covers a lot of water and the lake is going to be very busy with 8 out of 10 swims being booked so should keep the carp moving. And say we had a good head of fish holding in a area how would you go about fishing it either side to get that bounce back effect you were saying. Would you just fish the edges of the area of put one or two in the middle? Or if you were to fish on the edges how many rods would you put either side one or two?

Also there a ban on all particle so just boilie and pellet

How would you guys fish as a pair in a double swim? As I'm going on my first trip to France soon with a friend and as its our first time we thought it would be a good idea to pair up in a double swim so we can help each other out with netting a taking photos but then I thought we could also work together and share all 6 rods and take it in turns that way hopefully we both get a fish or two each or even say we found a nice spot bang in the middle of the swim big enough for two rods and both place a rod on it each and just share them to rods in case we didn't want to share all 6. Or if we didn't share and just fished with our own three rods what could we do as a team to help each other work out what the fish want and where they want it as were both most likely take different baits and fish differently.

Guy one of my rods has turned cloudy from a really wet fishing trip now I've never had this before so what does it mean is my rod now no good or can I still use it? And is there anyway to get rid of the white stuff?

Looking to invest in a spod/marker rod only looking for a cheap one.I Was on one website and they had a spod rod on there for £55 which was 5lb test and then there was a spod/marker rod for £75 4.5 test both. Are there certain thing to look for when choosing a spod/marker rod

I'm looking at getting a new bivvy mines finally on its last legs. I'm looking for a 1 man bivvy that has a fair amount of room and preferably one that is quite tall. Looking to spend 200/300 on a brand new one

Guys I need a bit of help as I'm booking a trip to the river ebro but now I've never booked a fishing holiday so I'm a bit cautious of who to book with as I don't want to get stung by hidden charges and most importantly I want to book it with a real company not some fraud! As I found a few company's that look legit but are fully booked which left a small few with availability with only one really offering what I'm looking for but the website looks a bit basic but however I have found videos on YouTube of them and they have a Facebook page and a few other websites that have links to this company but I'm still not 100% percent. They are called ebrofollyangling if anyone's herd of them

Planing on going Spain and fishing the River ebro for a week in September or October depending on availability hoping to catch some monster cat fish with the odd carp if I'm lucky. But I had no knowledge on English rivers let alone the Spanish rivers so I am think of getting a guide for most of it to increase my chances of catching. Now I've looked at the river ebro and it is massive and when I'm looking at the websites to find one to book they all fish different t parts of the river which make it that bit harder to pick one out as they are all quite competitive with the prices and all offer simular things I was wondering if any of you had fished it before and know of good areas to fish the euro to try and help me narrow down my search

I know I've wrote about this before so apologies if I'm asking the same questions. So with high air pressure it effects the carp in a way or another and pushes them up in the water column right? So zigs would be the way to approach the session? But now with the high pressure again if its up in the 1030s does that mean that its to high or would you just see it as that the higher the air pressure the closer to the surface is where your find the carp? And then with zigs in coloured waters would fish zigs on their own without any spod or glug/goo. Or is it more of a case of having to add attraction to draw them in due to visibility being less so as you need to get the other senses homing in on your bait?

Not something I really use as don't really know to much about it other that you use steam to shrink it. Now is it something works with every hook and rig material(braid/flurocarbon) or should I only really be using it with certain things if you get where I'm going basically when should I consider using it and when to leave it in the tackle box?

Well I went and managed to get a Christmas carp out on the bank after trying every method at my disposal I got on the zig as carp were showing but ignoring the bait then on my second to last cast I managed to land a 13lb common first ever capture on a zig will be using these again on my next sessions especially in high pressure. Hook bait was black foam
