Advice from the Domaine

We recommend using fluorocarbon as your main line for heavy-duty, long-distance fishing. It's a product perfectly suited to our ponds, allowing you to get closer to our beautiful, wild edges. This product boasts high abrasion resistance and very little stretch, unlike nylon or nylon line with a diameter of at least 35/100.

There is one rig that clearly stands out from the rest: the Spiner Rig. It's a formidable rig that guarantees perfect presentation of your bait, whether it's floating, balanced, or dense.

It's important to understand that removing a fish from its natural environment will cause additional stress on top of the initial hook set and the fight, which can be very strenuous for larger fish. Consequently, the fish will be less calm during the photo session and risks injuring itself with the rig still in its mouth. It won't have sufficient oxygen for a safe release. To avoid this, it's essential to remove the rig from the fish before any outing. This will also make it easier for you and much better for the fish to pose for photos in the water.

As you know, the average carp size here is high, so it's crucial to use appropriate weights, especially if you're dropping bait from a boat or using a boat with groundbait. A weight of 140g or more will encourage the fish to hook themselves. Using a boat is permitted for this purpose. We've observed that our customers catch fewer fish with weights below 130g.

We noticed that the fish had identified the pop-ups. Therefore, it's best to use wafters or dense boilies, which will give you more bites.

You 're fishing in enclosed waters, and the fish have a perfect grasp of their habitat. They constantly adapt to outsmart anglers. So, think about how to stand out from the crowd, whether it's in your choice of bait or how you present it.

The markers left in the water are danger indicators for the fish, which knows perfectly well that this is not part of its habitat. It's similar to presenting bait on a plate, where the fish approach to eat with suspicion. These are fish that are used to foraging for their natural food, which rarely comes in the form of a plate.
