Carp fishing on a Baitcaster is unique😂
You bet it is 🤣🤣🤣 but hey if it's all you got use it 😁 tight lines and thanks for the comment 🎣🎣🎣🎣
Hey what app or website do you use for the fishing forecast?
Hello Pcexrr, thanks for commenting. Here is the information. It's also in the description of all our videos. Forecasting - Fishing angler app: Playstore: bit.ly/2Zd3BmB Apple: apple.co/3lNTyMi Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣
@@CarpFishingtip thank you so much!
It's a big pleasure 😁
Have a good time fishing pal
Thank you 😊 tight lines!!!🎣🎣🎣
eish this is a kak place, most of the fish are that size.
Oh really. We haven't been in a long time. We do remember they were all around the same size. It's unfortunate but hey maybe they will get bigger or we will get better at catching them🤣🤣tight lines😁
Where is this R50 dam located?
R50 dam - goo.gl/maps/GfGkijSwc5bJc7g9A Hello Jaques, Here is the google pin. It s near by sundowners and panorama flight park. its also known and rust in orbi.
Yoooo it's been a while 😅
Yeah tell us about it🙈 been a crazy couple months but hopefully will get back into the rhythm of things soon😁🎣 watch this space😁😊 tight lines man😁🎣
I bought the yellow aluminum one. I understand there is a plastic version also. The one I received, the aluminum one, is very poorly made - the milled out holes are left with very jagged edges. Also, when I received it there was absolutely no instructions provided. I have had to search the internet for instructions - videos.
I added some water and reduced some dandruff and the result is amazing, thank you friend
That's great 😃👍 so glad it came out right 👍 tight lines🎣🎣🎣
Do you add additional water?
Yes, just do it slowly otherwise it will become too sticky
My friend, first of all, thank you for the recipe. I made it with your recipe. My boilies float, but my boilies crack and split. I boil them for 2/3 minutes as you said, but when they come out, most of them split. I'm making a mistake somewhere, do you have any suggestions?
Hello Osman, thank you for your comment. Hmmm we would first trying cooking them Abit longer. Also is the dough maybe too dry? They should be quite moist. Let us know how you get on😁👍 tight lines🎣🎣
You are right, the dough is a little dry, I cannot prevent it from cracking even when rolling, I think there is a little too much flour, but I will solve this problem and I will write to you here, thank you very much again.
No problem 👍 yes that's correct it needs to be more moist👍 it shouldn't be cracking when you roll it.
How long do you microwave it for
Hello Wayne, it depends on the microwave but i would start at 30 seconds and then rotate the boilies and go in 10 sec increments from there onwards. if they burn then start with 20secs and turn them and put them in for another 10sec increments till they are done. once you have the timing down you should be able to just rotate the boilies halfway through. Tight Lines!!!
Great to have you back😊
Thank you 🙏😊 it's been a long time with life getting in the way alittle. Working on getting our posting back on schedule. Tight lines and thanks for the support🎣😁👍
Bro I was at this exact swim today, took some tips from your video and it worked wonders, caught seven fish, biggest was around 3.5kg, thanks bro
That's amazing!!! 😁👍 well done!!! So happy our tips are giving you bites!! Makes our day😁!!!
Great day of fishing, I actually caught the same fish as the one that you caught on the bass rod he seems to like the margins, I caught him right at the banks, about 3 meters out, I also found that he's a stubborn fish and very fiesty, it fought me nicely and I almost lost him trying to net him in, so much fun Edit: the first fish on the bass rod is the one I'm talking about
Oh awesome 👍😁 thank you for sharing! Good to know he is still fighting 😁 hopefully he will grow into a monster!! tight lines🎣🎣🎣
Promo sm ❗
Easier to do them by hand.
I’ve been waiting on your return!
Hey 😊 good to be back😁 been a busy time trying to figure this thing out. 😁 Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣 thanks for watching and supporting us😁
Brown bread is the best
Agreed Abri 👍 brown bread is definitely a cheat code for carp fishing 🎣
Kan jy die vis los laat hy swem, waarom hom heeltyd terug trek? Jeez
Will you be willing to do a session with myself at this venue with loads of reel runs garanteed
We would love to, unfortunately at the moment our schedule is a little packed🙈 if we find a gap we will definitely take you up on the offer 10000%
Hard to understand with loud background music
Hello Melanie, thank you for your feedback😁👍 this was one of our first videos and we were still learning the tricks of video. We will definitely do our best to edit better going forward😊 tight lines and happy holidays 🎉🎣🎏🎄
Is daar groot baber in die oval dam
Hello Kobus 😁 thank you for the comment👍 I have never caught any at the oval but I know that ppl do target barber in the oval dam. How big is more difficult to determine but I would imagine anything between 2-5 kg should be in the oval. Hope that helps🎣🎣🎣 tight lines 🎣🎣🎣
You only need to boil them for 3 to 4 minutes. Why are they so dry? Add some oil (salmon or similar) to your base mix.
Hello Graham thank you for your comment😁👍 in this instance we added citric acid and baking soda to try get them to float. So I gave them a longer boil. We need to try a few more things to see if we can get them right 👍 😁 that additional oil is a great idea 😁 will definitely try that👍 tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣
@@CarpFishingtip oh so they are popups? If so then overflavour them because the fish won't actually eat them but the added flavour will attract them. Why not buy some proper popup Mix from Mainline Baits? Also put some fluro in a batch
Oh interesting so the idea is the popup is just attractant? 😁 We did see all the various products available and additives. We decided not to go down that route as most videos featuring those products are really good and guys with way more experience do a great job of presenting how to use them .The idea behind this was to try see if you could create products with grocery store ingredients either cos they cheaper or you don't have the products available in your town.
@@CarpFishingtip yes basically. The carp are feeding on your free baits and the popup stands out from the freebies either by being over flavoured and/or a bright colour. You can also use the exact same as your freebies without a problem, the best way is to experiment and see what works best on your water. One of the park lakes I fish is renowned for the fish to mainly get caught on fluro orange popups, the flavour does not matter.
@@CarpFishingtip another option is to use cork balls, wrap some boilie paste around them, Roll them in the palm of your hand to make them round then boil for about 4 mins, put them in a pot and glug them
Looks like u should rather stick to golf
What telescopic rod do you use, and where did you buy it?
Hello Bavik, thank you for the comment. we had bought it at a fishing store in the east rand. cant remember the name of the store. We have a similar onsale here if you would like. www.takealot.com/haiba-telescopic-fishing-rod-3-6m/PLID73600056 tight lines!
Hi thanks for the info at rietflei needed same new baits to try
Hello Gaibz glad we could help 😁👍 tight lines🎣🎣🎣 hope you catch a giant😁🎣
@@CarpFishingtip me to im going there this weekend ur vids really helped me make a choice on what baits to buy and u make really good and fun vids to watch
oh awesome 😁👍 miss fishing there😁 Thank you soon much for your kind words ☺️☺️☺️ we really appreciate it 🥰 we are in the Netherlands at the moment and trying to get into fishing here😁👍 hopefully we will have some international content soon💪💪💪
@@CarpFishingtip i hope so enjoy the Netherlands
Hey man what app are you suing?
Hello Aedan, thank you for your comment 😁👍 we use the fishangler app, it's became our go to mostly cos we can also post our catches there as well but it's forecast is the same as the other apps around. Let us know if you need anymore info. Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣
That's NOT how to use the tool!
I used your tips and caught a 10kg carp
Hello Tylin🥳 wooohooo!!!! that's is amazing news🎉🎉🎉 well done!!! We are so happy that our tips have gotten you such a great catch👍 please tag us on the photo on insta so we can share it in our story😁👍our insta is carpfishingtip📷 tight lines and screaming reels🎣🎣🎣🎣
@@CarpFishingtip now see I am 10 years old and I don't Instagram
Oh ok ☺️ no issue ☺️ congratulations again on such a great catch and hope you have many more tight lines and screaming reels ☺️🎣🎣🎣
@@CarpFishingtip you to
Good content , I will be doing a session there soon in July 2022 there is a few colors the fish are attracted to from what I see from my angling
Hello Shalan, thank you for the comment. That's an interesting point 🤔 We haven't noticed that probably because we stick to white and yellow mostly. Sometimes pink😁🤣 good luck it's a great water and great facilities 😁👍
@@CarpFishingtip yeah it's a great facility and I found some spots that hold up bigger fish in it . Would like to do a session with you in the near future
Nice Video, just a tip, never try unhook a fish in the water, fastest way you will get a hook in your finger. That was one close call on almost loosing your rod.
POS video. This is just a lame advertisment. Nothing to do with how to make popups. Just another lie.
If I use the dough that you have made uncooked would it float in the water? I want to use it uncooked so that I could stick a small hook inside the dough and leave it buried in the dough. If the dough floats without cooking and it stays on the hook for 10 minutes or more this would be my preferred way to fish the dough bait. Thanks for the demo, I appreciate it.
Hey Truth Sower, Thank you very much for the comment👍that is a great question. I dont think so because the heat activates the chemical process that creates the gas which gives the mixture it's bouyancy. What might work is placing the hook into the dough then boiling it🤔 Might even be able to boil mixture on hook with fishing line on it. dough should work uncooked too. Will definitely need to give it a test😁👍
I will be going tomorrow!!!!
AWesome Man! i am so jealous! i wish i cold be going to. hope you have a great day and managed to catch some beauties! tight lines!
Hey whats up bro why don't u try out another dam and make some content
I would love to be able to. At the moment work and life has me with very little free time so I keep local😊😁👍
@@CarpFishingtip oh k hopefully soon bro
Yeah hopefully soon 😁 would be really nice to see if any of our trucks work on the bigger waters😁🎣
What is a fish forecast?
Hello Kevin its basically an attempt.to forecast when the fish will be most active. As far as I know it is based off the weather pattern for the day and moon cycle. We use fish angler apps forecast page mostly because it is free and easy to read👍
Thanks bro. Still nee to the hobbie and fish here quiet often. Just need to see what works best here at the pond
Oh awesome 😁☺️☺️ welcome to the most frustratingly rewarding Hobby🤣🤣 100% 🎣 do you mean the pond with the specimen fishing?
good bait for carp. Thanks for sharing👍
Hello Team Sahabat, hope it gives you a few extra bites😁😁 thanks for commenting☺️☺️ tight lines team 🎣🎣🎣😁😁
Last time we went there about 3 weeks ago, me and my friend caught about 30 carp smaller than my hand. Surprisingly of the 4 bigger carp I caught, 2 was on drift bread, 1 on pineapple miellies and the 4th one was already hooked on someones trace that tangled with my hooks. But bread there topwater is excellent. Specially when the small carp feed on the bottom.
Hello Herman oh wow that's crazy🤣 yeah surface fishing at fun fishing is always a good bet😁👍 did consider that about the smaller fish being on the bottom 🤔 will definitely have to try that next time😁 thank you for the comment and tight lines🎣🎣🎣🎣
🥵🥵🥵
🎣🎣🎣🎣
Excellent 👋👋👍
Thank you😊

Hey Sa carp angler how you doing? Seen you have also had a good summer fishing☺️😁
@@CarpFishingtip hey yea man but just waiting for exams to finish and then ill be back to fishing hopefully 😅😁

@Sa-carp-angler you can dm me on insta my handle is carpfishingtip
Still an awesome day out! Love the bait presentation!
100000% nothing better than being on the water in the water🤣🤣🤣 thank you kindly ☺️
Lovely and informative video!!
Thank you man☺️ coming from you it's a great compliment 🙏
It seems that maybe the carp take bottom baits more readily due to the fact that most people are fishing popped up baits like floaties
Hey Blackbearddubz thank you for the comment :) We would agree. Even though you can catch on floats our experience is meilies most of the way. atleast from our last 2-3 sessions.
I caught that fish about a year ago and it was maybe about one and a half kg
No way!!! 😮😮😮 that is amazing 😁😁😁 we carp buddies now 🤣🤣🤣 Tight lines carp buddy🎣🎣
Beautiful i wanna ask umm What attractant sauce flavour is best for carp Pls answer with ur own opinion Great content bro! 🔥💯😜
Hello Yeboi_AUSTIN*, thank you the compliment and the comment 😁 we all know you can catch carp with nothing more than bread, a stick, some old line and a dream but from our experience there are like 5 flavors that are must haves, strawberry, banana, pineapple, garlic and eucalyptus. With those five you should be able to catch anywhere 😁 in terms of brands we don't think it matters. Yes some are thicker than others or more potent but honestly they all catch fish. We have used premium brands and some dodgey brands and caught on both, sometimes in the same session. Right now for us strawberry or banana with garlic and eucalyptus is working well. Let me know if I answered your question or just waffled🤣🤣🤣 tight lines man🎣🎣😁😁😁👍👍
can you share the recipe and process of making popups
Hello Martin, here is a link to the post on our website with more of the info. carpfishing.tips/index.php/2019/06/27/homemade-popup-boilie-test-using-our-feeding-frenzy-and-baitvault/ the feeding frenzy ground bait that we used to make is one part bran flakes and one part baby chicken mash/feed. we also found baby chicken pellets to be very effective as a feed. here is another video on boilie making. carpfishing.tips/index.php/2021/07/22/making-boilies-and-testing-them-out/ Let us know if they manage to get you a bite or two. tight lines!!!
Let us know what your tips are for stopping little fish from getting caught? do you just upsize the hooks or change baits?
You should try a cluster bait or triple stack of mielies and also I’d recommend fishing margins as often bigger carp tend to hang out in the margins due to the fact that most anglers cast outwards towards the middle of the dam. The bigger carp will see the margins as safe
Hey Blackbearddubz👍😁 thank you for the tips 👍 we will definitely try those suggestions out next time I'm there. We have also noticed that the bigger fish come from the margins mostly on average 👍 good to know we not the only ones noticing that🎣 tight lines and thank you for the comment😁
What are your tips for.surface fishing? 🎣🎣🎣 Tight lines guys🎣🎣🎣
What works for me, I go and get small dog food and white bread and go down wind and throw some dog pellets and free line a peace of white bread and the fish will eat but you must be quite
Hey best fisherman 😁👍 thank you for the tip man😁 I have seen dog pellets floating often when I'm there, now I know who is putting them there🤣 I should definitely try that👍tight lines man🎣🎣🎣
Thanks man but don't overfeed
Agreed 😁 you can always put in but you can't take out😁👍 words to live by😂
And that is one of the mistakes I make a lot
