SURFACE CARP FISHING | The Ultimate Self Hooking Rig

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 22 лип 2021
  • It's summer and it's HOT outside so we're surface carp fishing. We have a deep dive into the surface rig that I've used to catch numerous big carp from various waters. The rig in question is a bolt style surface rig that is self-hooking and will definitely help you land more carp off the top!
    Carp fishing on top is probably one of my most favourite forms of angling. There's lots of warm weather on it's way to grab your floater gear and get out there and catch some big carp off the surface!

    Hi Nick just found you & subscribed. And there was me thinking that you could find a stick piece of string and fashion a hook and catch fish like Hucklebury Finn. Seem's at 71 & having only been fishing for a short while I have much to learn. Pretty sure your video's will help me do that. Just got to learn now casting from under the tree's without getting caught up.

    Hi Nick, I have surface fished all of my angling life and I consider it my main edge as no one else does it. However using the standard 6-7ft hooklink I always miss takes and try to stike when they take the bait. I used your rig yesterday on my lake where I always end up frustrated, I had one 1st cast then another whilst rod laying on floor baiting up. I have never had takes this easy on this lake. Many thanks all the best, I have just bought the korum bubbles in XL. no more wasting hooklink anymore , all the best

    • @Lifeonthebank
      @Lifeonthebank  2 роки тому

    Awesome nick 1 of my favorite ways of catching carp the other is surface fishing for carp on a fly rod it's heart stopping stuff the problem is many people are finding is that most of the commercial fishery don't allow any surface fishing what so ever especially the surface bomb floats and no barbed or micro barbed hooks i fish barbless hooks i think it's ridiculous banning surface fishing I'm lucky i have private lakes i can visit these commercials are getting away with crazy rules like bread is banned no feeder fishing the list goes on thats why a lot of people are starting to leave commercial fishing they also close at 18.00 -19.00 best time to fish it's about time they started to change there ridiculous rules,excellent video nick well fished sir,para

I’ve been looking for a lake in Somerset with big surface feeding carp for ages but can’t find any. Is this lake near Somerset and if not do you know any? Thanks

      Not sure why, but I thought Kruiser Control uses low visibility fluorocarbon but maybe it doesn’t 🤔 Tend to use 10lb Smokescreen these days anyway.

    • @Lifeonthebank
      @Lifeonthebank  3 роки тому

      I’m quite clear that this is a rig for when you’ve really got the fish feeding, competing for the food. If you get them going like that you really don’t need much finesse. I bet it’s tricky to get them in a frenzy on your lake, hence then having to refine things a bit more. Tell me more, I’m interested 😉👍

    yes great to see your vids but long drawn out talk about the rig, got boring, yes I would like to know about rigs, etc, but it can be made a lot shorter, seemed to me you were advertising every bit of your tackle,,,i don't like ads ,

    • @Lifeonthebank
      @Lifeonthebank  3 роки тому +1

      Wasn’t trying to advertise, I really wanted to get across the heavy bomb + short hooklink + straight point hook, but maybe got too wordy. I gave a couple of options for the bomb (Korum or Nash bolt machine). But I take your point and whilst some might take offence I certainly don’t. I appreciate all feedback - positive or negative. Onto the next vid … hopefully you’ll still check them out 👍

      I did put out a warning at the start! 🤣 Digging into the detail isn’t for everyone. I kinda knew the risks. I’ll probably not do this too often. I think feedback was always gonna be mixed on this one.

  • @erickstanza8782
    @erickstanza8782 Рік тому +1

    Would you recommend shortening the hook link when the fish ARENT competing, and are only taking the bait very tentatively? I freeline on my local pond, and the carp tend to take the bait only 6 inches before spitting it, so I use the line as the indicator, and I have to be quick to strike. I’m thinking of using an interceptor so I can cast further out, but also interested in the bolt rigging capabilities too. I fear that, because they spit it easy, a 2ft hook link might be too long and they’ll spit it before feeling the interceptor resistance. What do you think?

    • @Lifeonthebank
      @Lifeonthebank  Рік тому +1

      I think the shorter 2ft hook lengths works best when they’re competing, however I would still start with this even if the fish are being cagey! I would see how the fish react and then start lengthening it by a foot at a time. Sounds like you’re thinking of going shorter. Why not try it and see. I don’t tend to go shorter than 1.5 feet. Hope that helps!
