Podcast Drop – Joel Harber – USA, Bears and Big Carp
Podcast Drop
Joel Harber - USA, Bears and Big Carp
This month, I join Mark back on the bank to see if he can rectify — and ultimately avenge — the lost carp from last month. And, spoiler alert, we get a live take on the podcast… and this time, he actually lands it!
Mark has also been playing around with a new rig, which he’s keeping very close to his chest, but let’s just say it appears to be working a treat.
Alongside the live action, we chat about a recent family fishing session that came good, carp growth, and the fascinating hierarchy of stock ponds — particularly when it comes to those top-tier fish that seem to outgrow everything else in the lake. We also get into baiting patterns, and why sometimes doing things differently can give you a real edge.
As always, the wonderful Scandinavian God returns with this month’s Panther’s Sermon, and last but certainly not least, we have a proper treat of a guest joining us all the way from the USA — Joel
Joel moved to America in search of a new life, only to discover that he’d landed in a country full of untapped, uncaught carp. Of course, catching them comes with its own unique set of challenges. Having bears for company, for starters, is a rather different proposition to fishing a gravelled swim at Linear!
Thanks for the support as always. So, sit back, turn it up and enjoy another episode of The Carp Fishing Podcast.
