    Question for you mate?
    The arm you use for your deeper on your boat where can I get the arm from as looks spot on ?
    Many thanks steve for doing what you and Joan do showing us all some stunning locations around the world where you fish, and not forgetting the stunning monster fish you catch along the way
    Purely awesome mate!
    Lots love to Joan and you all best 👌 👍 lee ❤️

    • @stevebriggs4638
      @stevebriggs4638  4 місяці тому +1

      I actually got the arm direct from Deeper but they are based in Lithuania so that's not going to be an option but I'm sure they are available online from somewhere. To be honest just attaching the Deeper with a length of line or cord is just as good.

    Did enjoy this watch Steve, like it's back to the original days of massive public lakes and barrages! I would love to have a go at that last lake you fishes so as a massive long shot can the venue be named or even dm'd? Contacts and lake info is probably the hardest part of carp fishing these days!
    All the best Steve 💪

    On lakes this size surely you would head on the end of the wind not just set up anywhere ?……..❤

    • @stevebriggs4638
      @stevebriggs4638  11 місяців тому

      no it sounds the obvious thing to do but on those big lakes it takes a really big wind to move the fish and what you tend to find is that there are lots of areas where the wind is blowing in to. Another thing is that the wind can often change direction several times in a short period as the lakes tend to be in valleys and the fish would have to swim miles to stay on the end of the wind.

    Great video and great carp from a great angler well done mr Briggs!👌do you think carp can actually see different colours I.e. pink yellow etc..even on the bottom of a lake bed where it's dark/black??kind regards David

    • @stevebriggs4638
      @stevebriggs4638  11 місяців тому

      thanks Dave. To be honest I don't really know how much they can actually see but I don't worry about it too much either, some of the presentations that I've seen carp caught on makes me think that most of the time they can't see what's down there and for that matter aren't clever enough to work out what they are.
