Hi Steve and thanks for the phone call.
The only thing I can think of as a sweetcorn alternative would be the plastic stuff. Especially if it’s Tollostolop catching we’re talking about. I don’t think they actually feed on solids but do suck them in when filter feeding but they almost immediately spit them out.
The fishing’s up and down at the moment and is very weather dependant. Mind you the weather is changeable, to say the least.
It’ll be good to see you again if you manage to get across during your May visit but don’t panic if you can’t make it, there’s plenty of time during your July hols.
I’ve not managed to fish since Sunday and won’t manage it before the coming Sunday, so again, the match will be a mystery.

Paul.

I will also be back on 14th July for 6 weeks and will be ready to take myself out of the wooden spoon league!!!!!!. Last time i was over you told me to bring tins of something for bait as an alternative to sweetcorn, Remind me as I cant remember what it was. Look for to seeing you all again!!

Recent fishing sesions have shown the grass carp are feeding plus large numbers of small carp being caught.
See you Sunday

Then it froze, again!
I’ve cut a hole in the ice on the lake to see how thick it is.
It’s 27 to 28cm thick (11 inches imperial) at about the 8m line.
Ice fishing anyone????

Wow indeed Craig.
There’s a lot of snow around but the stuff round the house is mainly due to wind and drifts.

Make sure i will. Meanwhile you can check my website http://carpangler.co.cc/ and join the forum if you like it. I am checking and updating info everyday and will be glad to post about your activity. Anyone that has the same hobby among your friends is welcome too. Not much people in the forum to chat with but it is a new project – about a month old. Hopefully with your help and other expats` also we can have a community of carp anglers here.

cheers,
Marin

Hiya Marin and welcome.
We have a great scene here with regard to the match fishing etc. and have met some really nice people. Most, if not all, have become good friends of ours whether they be Brit or Bulgarian. The only grumpy bugger here is normally me!
A charity match is a great idea and we’d be more than pleased to host such an event. The best guys to contact for that would be Rado and Vlado who have both posted on here somewhere.
Our matches are held on most Sundays, weather permitting so if you’re in the area on a nice Sunday, come along and meet the guys.

Paul.
