I’ve got a bit fed up with Chesil I’ve stopped going in the summer as it’s so busy plus not having much luck the last few times. Still go a few times in the winter but only end up with the odd dogfish. The Bristol Channel at Clevdon has been good the last couple of years.
Our EUropean friends eat carp and some even eat frogs. Re fishing, the weather down south here is perfect for fishing and the carp are feeding up for the winter. its a magic time. Its warm but not hot and the fishing is good.
Carp are a pest, and destroy the river/lake systems, introduced trout, salmon etc don't do the damage. The closed season is to allow the fish to get up for spawning and to keep the fish population healthy.
And who says carp are a pest, we will have to agree to disagree on this one Don........ But I'm right
They are a declared pest according to Fisheries and Wildlife Dept of NSW and the Federal Dept of Agriculture.
I'm lobbying to have Chelsea supporters declared a noxious and invasive pest ..... along with Man U supporters. I think I stand a very good chance of succeeding.
Feral pests here, that means we're allowed to shoot on sight. Here's a photo of us training, using rugby league supporters as targets.
