linus1234 Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Hello guys i wanted to try fishing for carp in my local park lake (hampstead heath) and i just wanted to ask you if you have some tipps for me with bait and locations. i had a walk around it yesterday but havent seen any carp but ive seen some sunken trees which could be a good spod ? thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Plenty more walking and looking. It can be worth just sitting watching a spot for a while rather than just walking and looking. The sunken trees are a good starting point, as will be weedy areas. As for bait, sweetcorn, particles, with maybe a few boilies thrown in. As an aside, I had a look at the City of London Hampstead Heath fishing page, that is good value for money! yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This^^^^^^ Until you find them you're just guessing which is no good for anyone buddy. Keep at it, they'll show you where you need to be eventually.

elmoputney Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 (edited) This may help you a bit, Alfie Russell has done lots of bits round the London park lakes so there may be more to watch, but they do look like some stunning carp, travel light and walk round getting to know the place maybe dropping some bait in some likely areas and keep walking, Edited June 18, 2020 by elmoputney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Paws Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 A "Hampstead Heath Moment" seems to be the buzz word for any celeb that has been caught with his trousers down! Unfortunately on Hampstead Heath, it's not likely to be a lady being troubled! I would definitely keep this as a "days only" water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, in terms of the manly men that cruse the place at night, no they will not bother you other than a passing chat if they see you, very good to get local info from on the more nefarious goings on, it's the violent petty criminals you would need to avoid , just don't be running around with a yellow duster hanging out your back pocket. salokcinnodrog and linus1234 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
