hi anton yes the st lawrence is great for big carp. they are also in the rideau but harder to find. there are a couple of places you can stay in cornwall but getting overun with us english carp fishermen! caigers resort at the southern point of the st lawrence (Gannanoque) is where i caught my first...

that interesting you have developed, on your own, what we call here a "hair rig" ask big bass rich - we sent him one in the post.
the theory is the carp suck the corn up and then get hooked - they do spook easy- thats what makes it interesting, but when they bite......

...and i was told there was no carp in the rideau!

presume you caught that at the ottawa end? whereabouts and what did you use as bait?

27lb - wish my wife would come fishing with me - or maybe not!

that would make a lot of sense, if the water is shallow.
have managed to float bread on the top of the water and have seen them take that when they are on the top.
sounds interesting - must give it a try!

hi Fishboy
In my opinion its difficult to fly fish for carp because they normally feed from the bottom, and only rarely take from the top - but maybe we could come up with something between us!
Try and give us a call on 613 387 3260 about saturday.

Hi fishboy Its interesting to hear that the carp are that far up the rideau, sounds like they were gathering ready to spawn. Perhaps you will have more luck catching one next time! If you are interested in learning more about carp fishing, we have a carp day at caigers 1000 islands saturday 3rd June...

For all those seriously interested in Carp fishing or even those who just want to pick up some info, there is going to be a Carp Fishing Day at Caigers Resort, 1000 Island Parkway, Mallorytown (near Gannaoque), Ontario on Saturday 3rd June. I am coming over from England with my friend and experience...

Hi jebby glad to hear someone else is interested in carp fishing, big bass rich and a few others are interested too - search for carp. a few tips, find a place whre they are, bait up the area regularly with corn. hook up with corn on a hair rig, no floating systems just an ounce weight 3 foot away f...
