Dr Fish, Simon Scott, sat down with us to discuss how cold water changes carp behav-iour, and exactly how you can take advantage of this knowledge to put more fish on the bank this winter. Fascinating stuff from Scotty, which gives us all a little bit more hope when the leaves drop.

Could listen to Simon for hours. He’s an absolute mine of information.

My local water was froze solid a few yrs ago but very clear I walked out on ice around 3 ft deep and was watching the fish swimming around under the ice ,

This is one of the most insightful carp videos i have seen in quite a bit. I would pay money to visit a half day seminar by this man.

Personally, I think late autumn and winter are the most beautiful times of the year. Wonderfully long nights and hardly any other fishermen on the water, just perfect. I actually only fish during this time because in the spring and summer I find the water really busy and I fish for other species. I actually do the opposite of what everyone else does and I like it. So don't promote winter carp fishing too much

Totally agree, I pick up a winter ticket on a local day ticket water.,that never gets fished during the colder months. It’s hard going but love it. Fish to 40lb pound and over 200 to go at.

Simon is definitely the expert here he sees carp 24/7 12 months a year their behavior and how quickly they respond to temp change etc.but saying that it doesn't mean your getting a bite but what I've noticed over the years (I fish the winters regular)is that when we get 2 maybe 3 days where the temp lifts slightly i get bites. Great video btw 👌👌

The thing you have to take in to account is in this sort of interview Simon speaks in very simple terms to make his point as wide an audience as possible. There is an argument that we have bred carp to be more able to withstand cold temperatures and function after a greater level than 'normal'. Farmed fish are often selected for fast growth. This only comes by increasing their abilities to assimilate food more efficiently. Catching carp in the UK in the winter is pretty normal. It's slower, yes, but not impossible. As Simon eluded to, location has to be spot on as they won't love very far. There's plenty of footage of carp under ice happily swimming about.

My local is 6c with the recent cold and snow melt, it was 10 last week before it , never saw a sign all day.

@daveshaw5293 8 ай бұрын

And don't forget guys Simon is describing his feeding farm lake/holding tanks but there is no angling pressure here on your local lake you must take this into consideration 👍

@knothead5 5 ай бұрын

How about a study of carp in the wild? There are too many variables with wild carp and their habits, environment, etc., to tilt any findings in any of several directions. He might as well try an aquarium.

Last year l was fishing an old lake in February convinced l was going to blank right rod screams off only to loose the carp l was gutted been there all day freezing cold l thought just give it half hour so l recast to the iland 15 minutes later left rods away l struck into something big bloding on the bottom big battle was in play 10 minutes l slipping this monster over the net 35lb common omg l couldn't believe it so don't stop even in winter ; )

@raygrange7312 7 ай бұрын

Carp were likely introduced to the UK by the Romans and then farmed by monks in the 14th and 15th centuries. They have had many years to climatize to cold conditions.

@knothead5 5 ай бұрын

If carp are from Asia, did the Romans travel to Asia? There is some evidence they did but did how did they keep carp alive on the trip west?

@davepenton4137 3 ай бұрын

Not really, because up to the 90's carp where generally imported, it was only when the likes of Simon started breeding them that they will of started to acclimatise more.

What i find difficult to understand is if carp are at one end of the large lake and and are torpid and not moving about because its so cold how do they know there could be a warmer area at the other end of the lake and if they don't move about much in the cold water how do they get to the other end of the lake.

@jamesharrison5004 8 ай бұрын

Depends on their genetics. Some carp seem happy to go torpid. Others want to seek out any heat possible. They're masters of their environment and know how the lake 'works'.

@DjDolHaus86 8 ай бұрын

Life experience pays a large part in it, they'll have learned what areas are more likely to be warmer throughout the winter due to the prevailing winds and the areas that get more sunlight. It's also a case that the water won't have just gone so cold that they can no longer function (outside of extreme circumstances), it'll have slowly gone down in temperature and the fish will have moved in ever decreasing circles within the warmer parts of the lake until they find a place to hibernate until functional temperatures have been restored. It's rare that they go fully torpid for long periods particularly in a fishing lake where food is generally available somewhere, it's only ever done when the fish has decided through experience that it'll consume more energy going out looking for food then it'll get back if it finds some and the same is true of warmer parts of the water, they can still cover quite a lot of distance for very little energy output if they think there is a good enough reason to do so.

There wont be two blocks of water at two different temperatures. There will.always be a slight gradient, which they can then follow to find the warmest area

@daveshaw5293 8 ай бұрын

It's their home mate and they become aware that the sun is out and no that means heat and they go to where they no the sun is on the lake .

2:42 this is exactly what makes me laugh at all these eletist "old school" carp anglers calling older fish "originals". They hapily poo poo stockies when every carp that has ever swam un the UK has been stocked by a human.

@robbrownfield7677 8 ай бұрын

That’s not strictly true. There are fish in the UK that are generations old and were bred in the lake they live. They may have come from a stocked fish 200 years ago, but they were not stocked themselves.

@DjDolHaus86 8 ай бұрын

You could say that about most of Europe if you really want to be a pedant about it. If the Romans hadn't moved them throughout their empire then they'd still be isolated to the lower Danube

That what an education does for you………..proper intelligent info. That aside you gotta get your continuity sorted out…… are Simons glasses on the table or on his face…….was he even in the room when the shots of the interviewer nodding and grinning were taken……glasses on table……glasses on face??? Apart from that, great stuff.
