Get round to your local commercial and, if allowed, fly fish for them. I nipped out yesterday afternoon to my local £6 per day pond complex. 35 minutes later I had landed 3 fish all over 10lbs. I managed to upset the local expert who said that I would 'Never catch on the top with a fly coz carp are bottom feeders see mate...' His landing net was still dry when I went home. He then said that I was cheating as I was putting in freebies. Happy days. Dave

It is predominantly a small carp lake, the biggest probably being 22lb but most pastie sized with 5 to 6lb'ers not uncommon. It is a great leveller in terms of angling skill and gives some people at work who fish 4 or 5 times a year alot of enjoyment. I find it a great confidence boost when fishing hasn't been going too well elsewhere. Last night the wind was ripping across the lake and I struggled to see the float at 10metres, so I fished top 2 sections to hand with a 12-14 elastic under my feet (maybe doing it all wrong!!). I've used the pole probably 4 times ever, so I was happy to catch 24lb of fish in 3 hours, not knowing what sized carp would take the bait next and reaching for the remaining sections when a biggun shot off up the lake! Once the season starts I will be back on the rivers. Kris

Once he got the hang of the feel of the rod i hope to take him on the river some time this season.

If i ever go to a commercial i can guarantee i always see someone with a £2000 pole but it doesn't make them a better angler. I do remember fishing a match once which included a guy with all the works, pole seatbox, all the terminal gear and he blanked, i on the other hand had a couple of lbs of silvers on far less substantial gear and the guy left with 2hours remaining. I've also noticed that a lot of people are taking the bivvy and bite alarm approach on commercials holding carp up to 8lb which is totally beyond me. If i ever fish them at this time of year its always on the pole, as i grew up fishing the pole before i got on to the rivers and leant how to fish the feeder a bit. The pole is an excellent way of fishing and i would reccomend anyone to try a bit. Like it has been said they come into their own when fishing canals, island swims etc but i like the whole business of choosing the right elastc and making my own rigs for a variety of fishing Like i say commercials are ok in my opinion if one is looking for a day out of bagging up and getting fish on the bank, but there is not much of a challenge to it Last Edited By: dan1988 15/05/08 04:16.
