weighing fish use a good quality large weigh sling. Do not stand up whilst
holding fish at any time, e.g. when having photos taken. To maintain the

In the pond we have mirror, common & grass carp weighing up to 28lb. Depth of the pond is around 4ft to 6ft. You can fish night or day. To fish on this pond we advise that you have experience in catching carp.
A few tips for the pond. Chum the water, feed the fish before fishing but make sure not to over feed. Use a rod pod or rod holder to eliminate movement. Avoid shiny hooks use dark hooks specific for carp fishing. Boileys and sweetcorn are a good bait to use. Night fishing and early morning is a good time to fish.
Through the months of April going into July the carp are normally spawning which makes it very difficult to catch.
