    Carp in the Whirlpool

    Water temps and the spawn are two factors that affect where carp are at a given time of the year and how much they eat. Carp spawn here in May to June depending on water temps. So they will be in areas where they spawn in the spring. Later as water temperatures increase they will move into other...

    A friendly reminder about Common Carp

    You can also fish carp more actively. The Brits call it stalking. Just take the essentials with you and walk the bank looking for feeding carp. Sometimes you can see them and other times you can spot where they are feeding . Carp are not shy about shallow water or even feeding right next to the...

    A friendly reminder about Common Carp

    The ROM is wrong. Goldfish were already in the waters of North America before carp were introduced. :)http://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2012/11/the-great-goldfish-invasion-how-an-exotic-carp-took-over-america/264420/ Catfish you did not offend me, no harm taken. The reason they were...

    A friendly reminder about Common Carp

    Just plain wrong. Townships have no powers to do any such thing let alone poisoning . Where did you get such BS from? Bowfishing for carp is legal and it has a season. If you would actually bother to look up some real information in the fishing regs. The season is now closed for the next 9...

    A friendly reminder about Common Carp

    Please show me where in the Ontario Fishing regulations it states that carp are listed as an invasive species. Common carp are also not listed in the Field Guide to Invasive species here in Ontario. They are protected by the same laws that protect all our fish. Throwing them up on the bank to...

    Need some carp advice

    Sorry for the late reply. If you are fishing corn on the hook a wide gap is a good idea. Size is not that critical, 4, 2 1 or even 1/0 will work. If you use a 1 or 1/0 please pinch the barb. It will make hook removal a lot easier on the fish and you. Good quality sharp hooks are important ...

    Need some carp advice

    The short answer is yes it can be that simple. Use some of the corn to chum with. Don't overload the hook with corn. leave the point uncovered. A good sharp hook is important.

    WHY DO I NEVER EVER CATCH ANY FISH!?!

    Just a reminder bass season is not open yet so you might want to try carp. Here are some good spots to try for them. At this time of year , the Canada Centre for Inland Waters, Lasalle Park, Valley Inn and the Dejardin Canal are good.

    Carp Boilies

    I would rank them corn, homemade boilies, store bought boilies. Corn, that is canned corn will almost always be instantly accepted by carp. Sometimes it can take a while for carp to recognize boilies as food. So it may require multiple baitings. Boilies are expensive and or labour intensive to...
