Terry Hearn: Carp Fishing

Terry Hearn is quite possibly the most famous carp angler in the UK. Fishing the estate lake at Eynsham Hall in Oxford he shows just why he appears to catch more carp than anyone else....providing he can get past the tench. After a couple of tinca's took his bait, right at the death a lovely 20lb+ mirror carp came along to appear in front of the cameras.

[@Electrozonelectronic]

Nice to see Terry Hearn catching a lovely mirror using Steve Neville alarms. Great alarms, simple and do exactly what you want very reliably.

[@thechunk]

he's on another level....absolutley outstanding carp fisherman..and nice bloke too

[@Jammy1800]

fair enough, im watching it because i enjoy the banter

[@10pennsy]

such preparation, splendid

[@wahoobass]

I take my hat to carp fisherman.... The skill involved is immense - It takes years of training to sit on your arse for hours waiting for a buzzer to go off. They even fashion themselves with f***ed up hair cuts and sunnies. Nice one boys. Go make some more boilies.

[@littleconz]

one good thing about terry is he has a great deal of respect 4 the waters and fish

[@JoeTurnbullAngler]

terry the tench strikes again...simply awsome.

[@Vilagen]

terry is a legend period.

[@lucymilner5934]

great vid from a quality angler

[@AbdulwasayQuetta]

very helpful video but what did u use for the boile u made

[@djla1]

very nice. i love my carp fishing.

[@gordonlammie]

Looks like a great lake

[@MrYTB11]

great video! :)

[@UkFisherman81lb]

Hardest thing about carp fishing for me is getting out of my bivvy and bed in the middle of winter is the rain at 4:00am but i love the entire experience of it even if i dont catch.... who cares if you blank got the rest of your life to try again, all types of fishing are easy in some aspects and hard in others all very different but yet exactly the same buzz! Tight Lines to you all. P.S what are your PB's (personal best fish) Mine is an 81.07lb catfish caught in france last year =)

[@Garage_doctor]

dude where do u get ur boilies is u make them please tell me how 2... nice carp at the end

[@lucymilner5934]

anymore terry hearn vids? hasnt he got a dvd coming out later this year?

[@imanishay]

Can you help? I just wondered does bigger boilies neceserally mean bigger carp or do large carp go for smaller boilies too help appreciated

[@don0098]

nice fishes. what did you use for bait?

[@CarpMagic95]

How about the nash scales? they are similar to reubens but stainless effect? Good or nash trash?

[@TheExtrem31]

hi,good job, what kind of boliees is best for fishing carp?

[@MrTommyT26]

do u need does beeping things for the rods, to catch a carp?

[@stewartchampion4260]

wow where has the last 12 years gone

[@Fishkid88]

What bate are you using and how do you make it

[@Jammy1800]

finally some form of agreement with a carp fisherman, good luck to you! :) and too everyone else sitting on the bank sipping ribena while waiting for your rod indicator thingymagigy and all your high tech gear to start ringing is not hard!

[@vstarbiker]

@TheFishingChannel Wouldn't that be a carp in the States, and where can I learn about his tackle, what brand and where his rod & reel is from? I use a carp rod from Cabela's for catching hybrid stripers (cross of Sea run and white bass) in tail waters at the local reservoir (long distance casting of around 2-3 ounces)

[@FlabStaba]

thanks a lot thats really greeaaaat

[@MrBorges53]

What kind of tent with bed is that??? I liked very much, where can I find one???

[@RupertTorp]

wait a second, just spotted this post, i am keen on fly fishing as well as carp fishing and i can tell you now, carp fishing is much harder to get a bite on a low stocked big fish water, fly fishing is all about technique and i can imagine for a beginner that can be tricky as i once found, but with regard to catching fly fishing is easy in comparison. Also your point about trees and wind, well, watch where you cast, and carp fishing is harder to be acturate, every aspect is harder.

[@ovechkin250]

whats is the best bait and lure for fresh water carp ( not bread or corn_)

[@ankrapek12]

agh! stunnin tench!

[@cavking1]

Bless him...

[@samuray4206]

very good.....

[@uluahuntah94]

wat kind of reel and line r u using

[@CarpFishingDorset]

great, he looks young!

[@shootinshotguns]

you dont need that beeping stuff. all u have to do is pull the line down a little bit on the middle of your rode and break a little green stick in have so its still attached and it will hold the line down so if u get a bite it will either go up or down!

[@FabioNaaan]

do the carp get hurt when they're fished?

[@FatBoyDan]

I just got hook on carping to now and nice mirror at the end

[@ashd002]

can anyone tell me. if i made a hair rig out of a stiff material would this blunt the performance in any way.

[@KoolHotDogz]

Are carp good eating fish? How big can carp usually get?

[@madmanrocka]

what bait did u use ?

[@coosess]

Just caught a 20pd carp here in FL.. Why do they ie so easy even after a clean lip hook?

[@StarskySTARS]

Hey im new to carpfishing. why do they tie the bait to the hook? why not just put it on over the sharp hook?

[@gurungbhikky]

terry i tried reay made boiles from richworth which got lots of colour on it but didnt work out good man flavour i use was mulberry,pineapple and scupex im so tired coz i really do wanna catch some good carp could u plz recomend me some magic boiles and ya i use just a simple hair rigs plz help me out here to get some fantastic boiles to hook monster carp and can u plz tell me the best boiles u using plzzzzzzzzzz

[@Jammy1800]

mostly fly yeh but sea fishing of the shore and boats, done a bit of pike fishing with lures, favourite is either fishing for bass with lures or small stream trout fishing.

[@fishinfreddy1]

what was the fish caught at about 4 min 30 sec.

[@TheDigitalDud]

Carp fishing is starting to grow in north america aswell.

[@boodags]

@NE0NZHD Sorry to intrude on this conversation but I just assumed you where from the UK. Im originally from the states and yeah for the most part all we have that ive seen are regular grass carp, they get like 10 pounds biggest I guess. But in south Florida and other places they have mad a boilogically made grass carp called a triploid, they get huge, but cant reproduce, made that way to clear vegetation. I accidentially caught one that weighed over 60 pounds, it was like a big gold whale.

[@MrTommyT26]

do u need to have does beeping things to catch carp?

[@UkFisherman81lb]

carp over here are pretty much the biggest and most powerfull fish we get in every lake except for the catfish but the reason we liek carp so much is cos they own. Many carp in the Mississip?

[@Putaspellonyou]

tell terry to come fish my pond over here in the U.S. goddamn carp are taking over, pushing out the bass and bream.

[@smartguy104]

I was never a big fan of carp I like to fish to eat. But when I catch and release I love to fish for carp. what you need is some mcdonalds french fries they love the salt and the fatty grease. just put the french fry on the hook cast out bring it in slowly alowing it to sit on the bottom for ten seconds at a time and eventually you'll get some big ones deffinetely I use 10 pound test or higher line for carp i lost to many hooks on my usual crappie bass and bluegill rig.

[@Jwilson1943]

Lovely - check out "Back of The Landing Net" episode 12 too for carp fishing

[@spunkmonkey5000]

well nice tench the second one.. id be happy to catch one that nice..

[@Genx1990]

what is the brolly he is sitting under?

[@phong60544]

Nice vdo. What type of tent do you have there? Who make it. Thanks,

[@quench1234]

Phong M that was a Nash Titan pre 98 version mate

[@zacroadkill]

what do u used to catch carp?

[@gazmoss69]

Nice bob! Like the rig though!

[@mcmaximon1]

Totaly agree with what your saying about the tackle market..but in all fairness you have some excellent anglers that market a range of tackle e.g Rod Hutchinson and Kev 'i think i'm a superstar so don't talk to me' Nash..I started carp angling in the early 80's when it was an achievment to bank a twenty and i used to scour the fishing mags and books for anything that was written by Ritchie Mcdonald (remember him)..Days long gone by :)

[@WyomingFish]

Awsome

[@valstar1000]

What is difference between a carp and a tench?

[@Genx1990]

what is the brolly he is under?

[@CaneFu]

@13098519 I prefer the heavy test mono-filament that are pre-tied to the hooks & I use 3 snap swivels: an egg sinker on the bottom with 1 leader & hook below that to rest on the bottom, 1 swivel & hook & leader 8 inches above, & another one 8 inches up from that. I don't remember the exact weight of the pre-tied leaders but it's somewhere between 20-30 lb. test.. I usually use 10 lb. test main line & found that's enough to take even the biggest carp & still allow for a very long cast.

[@RupertTorp]

Carp fishing on low stocked gravel pits, is certainly one of the hardest types of fishing, people think because buzzers are involved it is therefore easy, this isn't the case, i know many people that have done up to and past the 50 night mark with out one bite, sounds easy to me.

[@jiangteng]

so nice,~~~~

[@Dilevskif]

Went carp fishing today on a lake I was getting alot of carp on the feeder all of the fish were around 8-10 KG!

[@SimplyCarpFishing]

@NE0NZHD No that is a perfect comment. 1000000% agree

[@frackle]

Hi Terry what carp is your favorite Carp!

[@jiwa7695]

Wat the heck u use as a bait? Pls i wanna know. Dayummm greatt

[@richardmullins2534]

+jiwa metafisika look up boilies

[@daniel300383]

salve a tutti!! sono un carpista professionista italiano ,mi piace il video e la vostra tecnica di pescare bravi .

[@LexCinnabon]

Dental floss in the UK?

[@JM1888]

Could someone tell me what a gentle is what us brittish call is it some sort of larva or maggots? wb someone thnks

[@0369A9630]

Did it taste good?

[@RupertTorp]

because you don't get as efficient hooking, the hair rig enables a great hook hold in the fish's mouth.

[@UkFisherman81lb]

i think what the dude ment was it's hard to get the fish to take the bait the right rig will do that and the bait ofcoarse but if you present a shabby looking rig you wont get a bite and will be there for days confused but i carp fish and always have, Not hard at all lol hardest thing to me about carp fishing is getting out of my bivvy at 4:00am in the pissing down rain and wind lol.

[@paddyO961]

hiya i was jst wondering do any of yee no any good websites 4 tips and stuff

[@TheMattmoo47]

i am a begginer. you are inspiring

[@nightmaker]

So if I go out and buy a new rig and some new bait that means im skillfull?

[@UkFisherman81lb]

Ah! i have to stop you there, Ribena is the best drink on earth! hahahah but still i do nothing but carp fishin and im saying it there is nothing hard at all haha what is hard about sitting in the sun drinking a few beers hearing that 1st BLEEP! jesus gives me goose bumps hehe what style fishing you do matey? Fly?

[@Electrozonelectronic]

If so then why does Terry not use them? The new Nevilles are even better, saw them the other day and they are the business.

[@Riskyfingers]

How long can carp live without water? Seems he had him out the water a fair while.

[@IWrexI]

my greek grandma got a amazing way to cook them (: if youd cook them like her, you would love them

[@What.he.sayyyyyyy]

@imanishay it all depends on the venue m8 but big carp will go for big and small baits...a good method thats works for me is hair rig 2 small bollies and throw out a thew big nd small freebees

[@Riskyfingers]

what's his record?

[@canda1986]

@ovechkin250 lunchen meat hemp seeds red and white maggots mix with some ground bait put in a feeder you should catch on that

[@sgtg4600]

That’s a long name.

[@FISHINGTACKLECABIN]

stop knocking the bloke hes out there enjoying himself

[@LvKingsfield]

@survivalisme88 and how old is that boy?

[@colincky]

fantastic terry , just ignore that aussie arrogant silly little clown, keep up the great work ,love your videos books tight lines ...col.

[@jimmy2minutes]

I went fishing the other day, i sat down for 5 hours only looking up to notice the sign said CAR Park, what a fool i felt ! I still caught a 25+ common, which makes me the worlds best fisherman! but ended up getting clamped.

[@iownuful]

Why does he start stroking the fish??

[@headshooter04]

why are this carps there so green ?

[@MrPersonalBest]

good lad

[@BowfishingTV]

You've got to be JOKEN me!!

[@hussaruk]

thats why im glad im self employed but believe me...business suffers! Im off first thing in the morning when I should be working lol.

[@TheRealBruceLee]

Why did he kill the carp?

[@whistle2wolf]

Nice mirror. I have to say though if i was fishing on that lake and you went out in the boat to land that carp, i would be firing boiles your way :-)

[@Meatmiester]

I use at least 7-10 foot of leadcore; Kryston is the best around by a country mile....The fish find it really, really hard to eject the rig as they rise to the surface on a longer leader, (use a chod, size 5 stiff rigger mk2) jobs a gud'un!

[@boodags]

@deewilki I kinda just stumbled on this and dont really know whats going on in the conversation, so I guess I might expect to get reamed for this but whatever im not tryin to pick a fishing fight, but I am originally from south Florida and I just wanted to say nununnunnanana we got freshwater tarpon and snook and peacock bass and you dont nunnunnunnanana and all kinds of other fish that arent native to the environment but some doushe bags released them and now they are everywhere nununnana.

[@scottylad79]
