Carp fishing places demands on equipment
Carp fishing is an exciting discipline that demands a lot from both your fishing equipment and you as an angler. Carp can live up to 50 years and can weigh 40kg. It is one of those fish that will give you a really tough fight.
Both the reel and rod must be able to withstand the fight, and at the same time be transportable. That's why our carp set consists of a good, long carp rod of 10-12 feet and reels with super comfortable grip and spinning.
Worth knowing for a new carp angler
It can be a jungle to find the equipment you need to become a serious carp angler. A good carp kit is necessary, but carp fishing can also involve a tent, rod holder and other carp equipment .
As a newbie, the most important thing is your carp tackle - the first bite often creates a lifelong passion for carp fishing. Carp are cunning fish that not only fight, but are also incredibly good at hiding. Therefore, you need to have a lot of patience, and you may have to test different times, both night and day, for your fishing.
As a new carp angler, you should be aware of:
1. That it can take a long time to catch the cunning carp
2. That carp must be released back into the water after being caught.
3. That your carp set must be able to pull in the carp quickly and gently.
Much of carp fishing is about the battle between you and the fish. It also means showing respect for the carp. Catch and release of carp is part of that respect, as is the gentle catching.
With a carp set that is designed for carp fishing, you can reel in the carp faster and therefore avoid stressing the fish. In put and take lakes with carp, there are often rules that, for example, weigh the catch with a weighing sling. The rules are made with the fish in mind, and so that you can enjoy the fight with a clear conscience.
Enjoy!
