They're easy to catch.... can't understand why it's took him 48 years to catch one!

Well done to your father Dave.
I don`t think he was fishing Redmire Nick, I caught carp there when I fished there by using sidehooked sweetcorn with a running leger.
There are harder waters to fish where he could have struggled to catch his first carp.

Just the local canal.
Just need to get him on a barbel now, problem is he's in very poor health and can't cope with uneven banks or very long sessions.

No Kevin, well not carp he's had a few tench etc.
I'm going to try to take him to a commercial in the next few weeks, hopefully he'll see just how easy small carp are to catch!
