Blanking - the reality of carp fishing

As much as we all like to catch carp every time we go fishing, the reality is it doesn't happen all the time. In between the red letter sessions we all talk about, are usually a string of blanks. Very often these number a lot more than some anglers care to talk about, especially during the upcoming winter months when it gets very hard to consistently keep catching. In this week's film I talk about a recent trip I did to Belgium when I blanked for ten days. Add in a few frustrating trips to my local syndicates and I'll admit it's been a tough month of angling for myself. How do I go about correcting things? Do I change rig, bait or do I just stick to what I know works? #carpfishing #angling #bigcarp #carp #blanking 00:00 Introduction 02:26 Live bite 03:00 Lost fish 04:15 The ten-night blank 05:00 A false picture of carp fishing 06:45 The winter months 07:40 Blanking streaks 09:00 Belgium trip 13:25 Establishing a bait 15:00 Blanking is a part of fishing 16:25 Rolling the dice 16:40 The Kempisch canal 18:35 Keep the faith 19:40 39lb 8oz mirror from The Foundry Follow me on Instagram here:   / carpmancrow   Follow me on Facebook here:   / carpmancrow   Visit my website here: https://www.simoncrowcarpfishing.co.uk For information on Avid Carp visit their website here: https://www.avidcarp.com/en For information on DNA Baits visit their website here: https://www.dnabaits.com
