iberiancarpa Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Hi Steve Your timing could not of been worse. It is closed season here in Portugal from the 15th of March to the 15th of May. There is only one private water to fish in Portugal, it is called Lagoa da Alfarofia but if you are a match angler it won't be suitable, as you could wait a week for a run. If your dates change or you want any more info, PM me, as I do most of my fishing in The Alentejo region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgiejohnson Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 hi could anyone tell me wot bait to use in the santa clara lake,portugal.and wot fish are in there,when is best to fish it? thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iberiancarpa Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 As far as bait is concerned I would keep simple use plastic maize fished over normal. Santa Clara is a massive massive reservoir ( you would need a week to walk around it) finding a good spot is the the key as it is so big. Holds mirror carp and Bass. For me the best times fishing in Portugal are June and September as these months are hot but not unbearable like July and August. I f you want any more info about fishing any other places in that area PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbate Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 as my mate has told you its big i 1st fished it 18 years ago and blanked but did see 1 carp that looked in mid 20s that day there are common carp barbel and black bass find area that has old trees in the water the carp like these areas there are areas where you almost never catch so its very hard but nice scenery 5000 acres john bate sweetcorn works ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
