Fishing guide

Mirror Carp (Cyprinus Carpio) are popular freshwater gamefish commonly found in the United Kingdom and throughout Europe. Being a genetic mutation of the Common Carp, the Mirror Carp’s name comes from its irregular and patchy mirror-like scales that along with a fuller and rounder body make it quite easy to distinguish from its wild ancestor. These schooling bottom dwellers prefer rivers, streams and lakes with slow or standing water and abundant vegetation. Mirror Carp on on average grow to about 40-80 cm and 2-14 kg, but with luck you might land a 32 kg unique specimen and the world record for Mirror Carp is a massive 45kg. Best bait for Carp is among others semolina balls, dough balls, corn and peas.

When it comes to float, feeder, or bottom fishing, the best way to catch Mirror Carp would be to use Sweet Peas on a size #6/0 hook.
