Winter Ebro Carp Tours

Carp fishing on the River Ebro is superb during the winter months when fishing in the UK is extremely difficult or even impossible because the waters have frozen. The Carp in the Ebro congregate in huge shoals during the winter period in deep water, providing excellent Carp fishing. The main shoal fish are in the 20lb to 35lb range with many 40lb + Carp caught by us and you are in with a chance of a 50lb or 60lb Carp if you are lucky. The biggest confirmed capture to date is a Common of 68lb. The majority of the Carp in the river Ebro are big Common’s but there are some beautiful Fully Scaled Mirrors.

Carp fishing on the dammed section of the river Ebro in which we fish is totally different than any other part of the Ebro. There are very deep areas, shallow reedy areas, fast and slow flowing areas, snaggy areas and areas with no flow at all. These areas have been kept secret for many years but now we are making Carp fishing available to all UK Carp anglers so we can find out just how big these Ebro Carp grow. The fishing here is very different to the normal long stay fishing associated with catching big Carp. Here you can catch plenty of big Carp during the day, then return to your apartment to shower and change, then have an evening out with your friends in the local bars and restaurants if you are not too tired from the fishing.

Methods

Boilies, pellets, method, and particles work well here. We have found you don't need to bait heavily, just light baiting and good use of PVA to trickle bait in during the day. 4oz leads are suitable for most conditions with large hooks and leaders being used to avoid fish being lost due to snags and zebra muscles. If you choose to bait up your area we now have boats available for anglers fishing at range.
