Hey Yall,
I am living in Westfalia, Germany at the moment. The nearest trout stream is about 2 hours away. So i joined a local club and am now permitted to fish a few of the ponds that they have. The target Species is carp. At first i was hesitant about fishing for carp and thought i was "above that" for some reason. perhaps vanity. Anyways, i Have grown to absolutely love hunting these beautiful fish. They are so spooky, and particular. There is also Grass carp. I have landed 1 grass carp in probably 30 outings. If steelhead are the fish of a thousand casts, then grass carp would be the fish of a thousand perfect presentations. Anyways, i made a video with some of the highlights from my recent carping expeditions.
please consider following me on youtube and instagram
