Carpfishing (from the English carp fishing) is a form of sport fishing that is aimed at catching large carp.

His birth dates back to 1978, by Kevin Maddocks and Lenny Middleton, in England

CATCH AND RELEASED

Carp fishing aims to capture large carp specimens and after their capture all specimens are systematically returned to the water without forgetting their well-being, photographing them, this being the first rule of the carp movement, fishing without death.

It is also important in this modality, the fattening before fishing, a few kilos of fattening, a mixture of seeds, chopped boilies and flavor enhancers.

This pre-priming will get many results over time.

The precursors are Kevin Maddocks and Lenny Middleton who discovered a new technique for preparing the assembly that left the hook completely free by holding the bait to the hook thanks to a hair (at least in the most primitive version) for what is called hair (hair in English).

Thus, when the hook was exposed, it was favored that the hook was hooked in the mouth of the fish more easily.

This form of assembly is justified because the carp feed by sucking the food and not biting it like other species of fish do and when sucking a bait with a hook inside they were suspicious and spit it out.

In addition to this, the fish does not usually swallow the hook that almost always sticks in one of its lips.

Thus facilitating its extraction and avoiding further damage to the fish.

BASIC RULES OF THE MODALITY

Use of specific material to avoid damaging the fish: netting one meter or more open, unpinning (or receiving) carpet, specific antiseptic to heal possible wounds from the catch.

The fight with the fish will not be excessively long, so that they return to the water still strong.

For this reason we avoid very fine threads that, to avoid risk of breakage, force us to lengthen the fight, nor reels or rods that cannot withstand the push of the big tents.

The captures will be treated with the utmost care and respect.

Once the possible injuries from the capture have been healed, it will be returned to the water alive in the shortest possible time, just to check if it has injuries and to photograph it, and always keeping it moist.

The place chosen to fish will be left clean, without waste or remains, all garbage will be removed, always trying to leave everything as it was found and without modifying the environment.
