Carp fishing with worms

[@robertcotton9091]

Hi Robbie. Firstly thanks so much for a great series on your youtube regarding your carp fishing ,I have now got to the last one all 114 of them. Its taken me a couple of weeks, sadly my mother passed away 2 weeks ago aged 87 in the old country. May I just say to you that watching your carp videos, listening to your jokes, and happily fishing with your family has kept me going through my period of mourning. It really has helped me a lot. I shall be back as you are reading this, I havent fished in the UK for 33 years now but am hoping to get a couple of days in. I shall float fish targeting roach, rudd , and if lucky a Tench or a carp. God bless you and family mate, your fishing channel is awesome :)

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much for your kind words Robert. Please accept my condolences for the loss of your mother. My mother inlaw passed away last week and we have the funeral this Friday. She was 72. I am truly blessed to still have both of my parents, both in their 70s but going well. Good luck fishing back on the old country, I hope you catch the fish of a life time. 👍👍

Another good show Robbie. Fun fact, the fat smooth bit of a worm is called the "clitellum" if the hook, pierces the clitellum the worm dies and doesn't present.. try it out ..

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Brendan. Well there you go you learn something every day. Thanks mate. 👍

Greetings my friend from a cold and wet place, I would much prefer your " HAPPY PLACE " That was some nice sport rob, very satisfying to watch. Best wishes to everyone mate and hope your day is peaceful....thank you . 😎🇬🇧

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much mate. It is a cold and wet place here today too. We've had 20mm of rain and a very cold maximum of 9 degrees. Haha Thats a very cold day here where I live. It could possibly end up being the coldest maximum that we have all year.

Good to see you still getting a few Robbie, things have really slowed down over here in the last few weeks and today we had 80cms of rain, so it will be even quieter!

How good is it to have a stretch of water like this, its good for the soul! Nothing beats the rod loading up after a few nibbles and the unknown of what you have hooked.

I can see why your happy place makes you happy 😊 you can hear it in your voice. Keep being happy Thanks for sharing Love your work Healthy habits

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much Moo Moo. It's funny how there are no huge cod there, no fancy boats and no real trophy fish of any kind and yet it is one of my favourite places to fish!

[@fletcherdoherty5507]

Nice video and two nice mud Marlins. For you are carp more reliable on worms rather than corn. It’s definitely corn for me.

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, i never know which one to use. Haha They're both pretty neck and neck, but I do seem to do better on corn than worms in the winter months for some reason.

[@lachysoutdooradventures2731]

Nice one Robbie nice to see ya still catching fish even in this cold weather

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Lachy. It's getting tougher and tougher for all species apart from trout, but trout season will close soon.

[@danielcullen6768]

I’m still new to fishing/cray fishing, I still have a lot to learn Would love to be able to go fishing you one day Nothing better than relaxing all day, I just can’t catch any fish atm I’m getting the Crays I just need more confidence in looking for places

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, it's all trial and error. I still have a lot of failed trips in amongst my successful ones.

[@kelvinhaynes6123]

great video Robbie

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Kelvin.

[@browntrout1156]

I went to the channel yesterday and they have drained it a little. Could see the Carp swimming around but they were not interested in food.

[@robbiefishing]

Sounds like a fun place to try though. haha I think when that happens they become stressed and their focus is on survival more than feeding.

[@TheThetechnician]

A beautiful spot indeed old mate

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. A simple fishery close to home that I love to frequent.

[@glenbaker4024]

Ohh yeah they are! Shame they’re such a bugger to cook to an edible state. They put up a good fight and are usually the first thing people catch. They’re fished for the sport and harvested for fertiliser (charley carp) in Australia. I have been fed some which was cooked by an Ukrainian grandmother which was pretty good but lots of little bones.

[@robbiefishing]

@@glenbaker4024 That's what I have found Glen. I've cooked them a couple of ways. I've found one way that makes them taste OK but the bones were horrible.

[@SteveggStevegg]

Gday Robbie have you ever eaten a carp? If so what are the like to eat. Have you done a catch and cook video?

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, I sure have. If you search (robbiefishing catch and cook carp) and (robbiefishing mariocarp) you should find a couple of my carp fishing catch and cook videos. The first time it almost made me sick. LOL The second time it tasted quite nice but the bones were horrible.

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

@@robbiefishing from friends overseas I've learned that they tend to keep them in a basin or even the bath tub for a few days to flush them out. The fillets are sort of a fillet within a fillet to dodge the bones. Then it's a case of soaking the meat in buttermilk (not sure why - something about enzymes) before seasoning/marinating it. I still think they'd taste like old shoes, but each to their own.

Hi Robbie you need to look up carp rules on the website as there's no law on killing carp on NSW and ACT and I think WA you may upset the English and European fishos as they respect carp its a spots fish over seas if you know how big soccer is in the UK carp fishing is bigger and they release all carp just a bit of advice

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, no need for me to look up the rules at all, I am fully up to date with carp laws. I fully realise the carp rules for NSW and ACT. I am not in those states though, I am in Victoria. If people in other countries get upset, then they get upset, but if I release a carp here in Victoria, not only am I breaking the law but imagine the backlash that I would get from the Australian fishing community!
