carp fishing in spring and summer
These are two seasons, not only carp, but all fish are very active. But the most effective time is early morning and evening. Avoid fishing when it’s hot, because high-temperature fish will eat less.

In autumn and winter, carp is concentrated in slow-moving, hidden corner areas, and usually far away from the gates that lead water into the lake. There are many hyacinths, lush and delicious vegetables, and a hiding place for carp.
In winter, carp usually chooses the deepest lake location to adapt to warmer temperatures and to rest more quietly.
