Ian Poole - Carp Specialist


	NAME: Ian Poole AGE: 36 HOMETOWN: Worcester OCCUPATION: Angling Journalist/Photographer SPONSORS: Richworth, Wychwood, Korda Developments

	UK PB's:

	MIRROR CARP: 46lb 14oz COMMON CARP: 37lb 10oz CRUCIAN CARP: 2lb 4oz GRASS CARP: 9lb-ish LEATHER CARP: 34lb 6oz

	FAVORITE BAIT:

	TYPE OF BAIT: Boilies, hemp and anything that can be used on the surface WHY YOUR FAVORITE: Boilies are such a versatile bait and are more consistent than most others for catching the better sized fish. HOW TO USE BAIT: Spodding is my favourite tactic on the bottom with a mixture of hemp, pellet and whole and chopped up boilies making up the contents of the spod. For the surface a mix of different sized pellets either spodded, pulted or PVA bagged out.

	EQUIPMENT LIST:

	RODS: Wychwood 12ft 3.5lb for the bottom and Wychwood 12ft 2.75lb for the surface REELS: SS3000's for the bottom, SS2600's for the surface BAITS: Through 2008 I will continue to use the K-G-1 freezer bait along with our new Multi-Stim K-G-1 Pellets ACCESSORIES: Delkim TXI alarms, Delkim Conversions, Aqua 60inch brolly, Wychwood luggage, clothing and line, Korda hooks, leads, and end tackle.

	FAVORITES:

	SET UP : My floater gear PLACE TO FISH : Horseshoe Lake, Dinton, Carthagena, Smith's Hardwick, Stoneacres, Birch Grove SWIM: Boat Point at Horseshoe Lake. The compound at Birch Grove

	FISHING HIGHLIGHTS:

	The Dustbin at 38-12 caught off the top at Dinton Pastures in August 2001. Petal's at 46-14 from Linch Hill Leisure Park in 2001. Black Eye at 45-12 from Chad Lakes in May 2006.

	IAN POOLE TOP TIPS:

	TIP 1: When fishing over boilies I always use a mix of different sized free offerings if I can. This makes it much harder for a carp to work out which one is dangerous, and also gives you the option of fishing with several sizes on the hair. TIP 2: Try Richworth's New Multi-Stim K-G-1 Pellets as an alternative to normal trouties. The K-G-1 Pellets are enhanced with all of the attractors found in the K-G-1 boilies and have worked well in field testing. TIP 3: A small bait approach can be an excellent way of tempting bites when nothing else seems to be working. Despite being widely available, 10mm boilies are still used by a very small percentage of anglers' and fished over a bed of small particles can really score where larger baits are being ignored

	WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU?

	To enjoy my fishing through 2008 and catch from two new waters I've joined this year.



March 2008. A Berkshire 45lb mirror caught on an 18mm K-G-1 bottom bait fished with a 2 bait stringer. This was cast just over the back of an area baited up with 12 spods of hemp and 100 mixed sized K-G-1 freezer baits.



January 2008. A Brasenose 20 plus mirror. 10mm Tutti's again the winning bait.



One of six Brasenose mirrors landed on a short day session. Tutti's fished in bags of mixed pellet the successful method.



August 07. The Starburst Mirror at 38-01 caught off the top at Richworth Linear St. Johns.
