When is the Best Time to Go Carp Fishing?
One of the best things about carp fishing is that it's a year-round season! The carp fishing seasons generally deliver different experiences, so it depends on what you're after that will help you decide when to go fishing.
Spring
Fishing for carp in the spring is great because they start coming to life and it's an excellent time to catch a hungry one. April is probably the best month, especially if you want to go abroad to France.
Summer
The summer is perfect carp weather, and it's great to be out in the fresh air. You will (hopefully!) be sheltering from the heat, the carp also like to hide in the shady parts of the lake, or bask in the summer shallows.
Autumn
In the autumn, food starts to get scarce, and the carp want to bulk up for winter. They're big, and they're hungry, with the right bait you can have a very successful session, just remember to wrap up warm!
Winter
For many, winter carp fishing is their favourite time of year. Carp fishing is known for lengthy, often overnight, sessions. So be patient, but remember that the carp are looking for food. Remember, its important to fish for a bite at this time of year, dont overfeed your swim.
Choosing the Right Type of Carp Fishing Locations
Carp Lakes vs River Fishing
Lakes are obviously closed off and so owners are able to keep track or their carp stock, whereas river systems will of course hold carp but they could be holding up anywhere along the course of the river.
Lakes will have favoured pegs, anglers will know the spots on certain pegs and so gain confidence in that swim. River carping relies on much more your ability to move and find the fish. Although, wild river carp are more than worth your time, their dark scales and ancient appearance make them really special.
Day Ticket vs Overnight Stays
Day Tickets allow you to fish in daylight hours, this is obviously a shorter amount of time in the winter, however, in the summer this is more than enough time to land a carp, especially on a runs water.
Overnight tickets, or 24 hour tickets, allow you to fish for that period of time, venues will be able to offer you a 36 hours, or 48 hours ticket as well, as long as you like really. This is brilliant for tougher, or just bigger lakes, perfect for campaign fishing. Carp anglers will sit behing alarms for weeks on end to catch the carp their targetting. With a longer stay at the lake comes more gear and tackle, bare this in mind when planning for your trip.
