CARP FISHING in the snow!

Join me on a short trip to Esnes Quarry in Wolverhampton as I go in search of a snow carp. The conditions are Baltic but I just love being out in sub-zero weather when the banks are quiet. This 18 acre water is currently run as a syndicate, but in the first week of April it opens for day tickets. Stocked with some stunning mirrors and commons to over 40lb, it is going to be a great venue for Midlands carpers. In the film we have a chat with venue owner Ed Matthews about what's on offer, and I talk tactics for cold water carping. To book yourself onto Esnes, visit the Go Catch app or contact Ed on social media.

Well done Simon . No one can say you’re a fair weather fisherman 😊. Love the coat in your pooch 👍👍. Great conditions for putting all your equipment to the severest of tests . You soon find out what works and what doesn’t . Take care in the slippery conditions Simon .

[@SimonCrow]

Thanks mate 👍

[@airriflemaniac]

Belter, well done

[@SimonCrow]

Cheers

[@karpkatcher1070]

In a previous video, i commented that Simon represented the more sensible side of carp fishing. Looking at the weather, and taking in the stilton error, i would now like retract my previous comment. I do understand the getting old bit, yesterday i thought i put my underpants in the wash. That night i pulled my pillow back to get my PJs and there was my dirty pants from the night before, and i bet they smelt worse than stilton. Looks cold, but another good video, thanks.

[@SimonCrow]

🤣🤣 great post mate 👍

[@johnburton894]

Good Angling Simon. Proper bit of winter angling that fella. Your wrong about Stilton tho it's the king of cheese 😋😋😋

[@SimonCrow]

Cheers John 👍

[@timsears7752]

[@SimonCrow]

Cheers Tim ✌️

[@Retirement_Life]

You are very brave, Simon! Love the pasta, vegetables and soup idea. I’ll have to try that one out, especially with Stilton cheese! 😂

[@SimonCrow]

[@JumboWatts]

Great vlog mate

[@SimonCrow]

Thanks Jumbo ✌️

[@urbanmtb3984]

Nice

[@daveprime2273]

Nice one Simon in those conditions any size will do I like the information about the clothing and boots although I use clothing along the same line although I must have a look at those snow boots though I also like the tip about the wd40 as it's a vegetable oil so it shouldn't be to much of a problem of a problem great video I was out in the snow myself and had a right result with two PBs a mirror at 38lb 10oz and a leather at 30lb 04oz

[@SimonCrow]

Mega catch that Dave, top angling pal 👌

[@carpNcoffee]

Thoroughly enjoyed that, thankyou. I just wish a wader company would finally make larger size foot waders. Size 15 and its impossible to find any!

[@SimonCrow]

Thanks pal 👍

[@stephenbathers5702]

Managed a 31lb mirror myself in the snow friday morning on Merrington bucket list moment for me

[@SimonCrow]
