Poland

Is this the wierdest carp ever ??


Can any of the polish lads on the site shed some light on the strain of fish.
It has one of the biggest humps I have ever seen

Looks like a dink. Just very short and blocky.

Tom are you saying there are polish on this site?

Yes Niall there are.

EDUCATION NOT CONDEMNATION

http://www.shannon-fishery-board.ie/guides/coarse/bylaws_guide.htm

while fishing the lough recently ,i watched a man set up a single rod
cast out what looked to me a method feeder and lay his rod on the
path,i then got a run and after the usual he asked he why i did not
keep the fish,we struck up a conversation and it was oblivious to me
that while this man loved and was very knowledgeable on fishing ,he
genuinely did not know the bylaws or code of ethics under which we
operate ,itried to explain and as his english was better than my russian
he got the jist of it,he reeled in his rod and his rig consisted of his mainline
connected to a 2" long spring which he moulded the feed,from this spring
was tide four 3" pieces of braid with a size 10 on each ,these are then
buried in the method mix,oh shock horror i hear u say,but this is the common practiced method in his country,again he accepted that his methods could not be used here and i showed him a few rigs,after i got
home i was thinking of our meeting and realised that there are genuine
foreign fishermen in this country who want to learn,thats why i think
people should perhaps think of clicking on the above link,get the little
booklet,stick it in your tackle bag and youd never know it might help with
the language barrier .

We cant even educate the trout and sammon anglers inthis country, in fact is the western fisherys board still gill netting in the corrib and mask, so what hope have we on converting fn's.

we can but try niall, ive seen it all by now
and have often lost all heart,but incidents like with
that lad on the lock can renew faith,im not on any
crusade but if a lad approaches me ill try to point
him in the right direction,
a man once asked,"how would you eat an elephant"
his answer was "one bite at a time"

sorry 2 say Bud but the most of them dont give 2 dams what the laws are there just interested in what financial gain they can get, like Niall said we cant educate trout and salmon anglers and theres no hope of educating fn's,its just like peeing against the wind no matter what way u look at it.

i remember when i was about 5 or 6 seen countless big dead pike on the shores of blesso .at the pike comp`s. that was 25 to 27 years ago. i have talked to some of the men that were at these comp`s.nowadays they all give out about the fn`s . irish people find it hard to believe that in them days very little went back. i remember been shown how to set night lines, how to make otter boards. when people used to catch their legal limit of six trout and then hid them in the forest and catch another six and do the same. i agree with bud c . we can`t watch this people 24/7 365 day`s the best thing to do is get them on our side. i will not happen over night

Not all Fn's are killing every thing they see.
I would prefer to have 1 fn on our side than none at all.

i agree natas that there not all killing everything they see and its better 2 have 1 on ourside than not but most of the 1's ive meet or seen are only out for 1 reason and dont care what anyone says or care about any laws that in place,but i think things will get worse before they get better.

I am aware we cannot tar them all the fn's with the same brush .
But the majority of the fillthy B@st@&ds dont give 2 ducks
about fish rules or heritage . They are slowly draining our waters
of stock and it annoys me to the soul .

your not alone there. I think its a disgrace that there allowed to get away with it. if an irish man was caught without a license or killing fish they would have there gear taking off them and brought up the steps, all they get is a verbal warning and the next week they will be back at same thing again i seen on the lanesborough angling site that they killed a 20lb pike down there last week, the law was called in but nothing came out of it after. not right at all

was thinking about my annual trip to the emerald isle,yep youve got problems in ireland,dont believe for one minute its confined to the influx of foriegners,you irish boys have being moving bloody carp around for years,there both equally bad,johnny pole steals a carp for the table 1 ,carp angler moves carp which is infected, to a new water,which one will do more damage, kettle and pot come to mind,in truth your all so self righteous,all this site does is fns fns fns fns,if your own fishery board,governing body werent sat with there heads up there arses,they would be able to see whats going on,maybe a good starting piont might be with the so called carpers,who spend all there time on here preaching crap and false innuendo,you might just see the bigger picture, clueless and balless,and a sad reflection on irish angling:bounce:

OOOOoooh who took the jam ot of your doughnut:lol!:

colinhealy79, just a piont colin,not trying to upset anyone,30 years making the pilgrimage across the pond the fishing has declined, angling in ireland has declined,hospitality has declined,in the words of your own christy moore, its all me meme now and f1uk the sick and needy,this applies right acros what was once one of the most welcoming countries in the world,the sad thing is those who were entrusted with protecting and nurturing angling in ireland,were content to take there semi state fat cheques,and then fall way short of delivering sad state of affairs:affraid:

i think were all on the same side ,but about moving carp i think to move carp illegally now would be dumb and probally worse than knocking one on the head , but as for the lads who did it years ago l think we are feeling the benifit of it now.
and about being less welcoming now than 30 years ago,i think thats just the world we live in ,20 years ago i knew everybody in the whole estate i lived in now i couldnt tell you my next door neighbors name, and id say thats the same over your neck of the woods.
well i hope it gets better and thats the idea of forums like this educate each other and debate
i hope you do make your annual trip and catch a bag of a lifetime,and have a few pints and a bit of craic you would be welomed by me any way
all the best.

You should make your annual trip to a some of the english owned lakes in France,which have nicked carp out of the public water for their own financial gains or their must be a few lake near your home which imported some of these nicked carp from France.The trouble with the Fn's is it's not one for the table,they want the whole stock of the lake to fill the freezer and sell the rest to make more money to send home.

those that are caught are getting more than a slap on the wrist.the
problem is catching them,lack of funds to supply fishery officers ?
i dont know.bigstonze,welcome to the site,a lot of what you said is
correct,irish anglers have and are still making mistakes,the fishery boards
may be paying more attention to the plights of trout and salmon anglers,
but i dont belive this site is all fins fins fins or self righteous posters,the subject of fns or moving/killing of fish can be very emotional for some
people,i belive we should be able to discuss any topic or subject on this
forum in an adult manner,clueless and balless i may be,but telling me that
is not going to change me.i hope you decide to continue your annual trip,
continue to post on the site and maby when you come over you could
do a session with some of the other site members,
regards bud

lads i didnt mean to give the impression that carp anglers where clueless and balless,that was in fact directed at the fisheries boards,blind leading the blind,aj your spot on about the french carp,and english anglers,two wrongs dont make a right!!!!! there are some decent lads involed in angling in ireland.i believe caci are doing good things... i dont know much about abby anglers,they dont appear to be as well organsed,that could be wrong.... the more voices in clubs the,the louder you can shout,and so on,the best of luck for the future,weve decided to stay put in the uk for this year!!!! regards

im sad to hear you wont make it over this year bigstonze,but maybe if more of your country men did the same the powers that be might get there heads ot there arses........i wouldnt hold my breath though

all the best in what ever you do

U said it...... Behind us 100% i have seen them trying to leave waters with fish:roll: ...They leave empty cans and bottles of beer every where no consideration for other anglers and the wild life in the area:x ....Not saying that they r all like this:roll:..I fish for fun and sport. I do not fish to kill everything that comes on the bank
