Im Sat here in reflection, sporting the biggest grin for ages as it comes to summing this years carp & cat fishing adventures into words. I write wrapped up warm with lemsip at hand due to fishing’s enthu­siasm.

To be honest I was not looking forward to the start of this years guiding on the River Ebro in Spain. Working hard for much of last year had taken its toll, but the quality time off over the festive period gave enough time to recharge a few batteries, refine a few methods & play with some new rods & reels from Father Christmas.

This year’s river conditions brought the best out of me, a very difficult season for most anglers, even when guided. My lady luck saw to record braces; I recorded my 150th 150lb+ catfish to the pebble rig within just 12 months fishing, told tales of the one that got away, broke my catfish personal best & sowed the seed to cement my career in the pastime I have known so dearly.

Returning to the rivers edge at the start of a fresh February, I noticed the fish were not to be seen in their usual haunts, mainly due to the rivers water level. My aim in February was to establish areas for fishermen the following month.

These were probably the best conditions as there were very few people fishing but fish location is an art never mastered. Most local guides were struggling & relied on fishing the waters of Caspe in order to save holiday blanks. The usual areas along the River Segre & the T junction where it meets the River Ebro were almost void of life even though being regularly fished. I noticed that very little swim feed in comparison was being used, so my search for bigger fish took me some 15km down stream from the town of Mequinenza.

The depths of the festive months saw little to no pellet in comparison to the summer’s quantity. Due to pellet formulations & its magic ingredient, the catfish were slow to rest & in the quest of hunger the catfish switched from large beds of pellet to feasting on large shoals of bleak. The silver fish in realisation turned & headed away from the waters of Mequinenza thus leading the catfish in the getaway chase.

It all started tucked away in a familiar fruit orchard that brushed two reed lined bays on the banks of the River Ebro. First Light on the 4th March saw my first guided catfish of 2006, a 2m 41cm 203lb beauty, the largest Wels catfish to have been caught by a Dane, what a start. Ironic really as the cat rods had only been employed due to slowing carp action & a sighting of a big cat. However, with this big cat out of the swim & sulking in the margins the carp soon returned to this usual retreat & for the following month many previously uncaught carp graced the bank.

The first week of March produced some 40 carp to just fewer than 40lbs, many low 30’s & I noticed the fish were getting in on the bait quick. By the first week of April, at some points in the day, you could not keep even 1 rod out, one day saw twenty mint 20lb+ common carp to a pair of tired fishermen. As the first week of April drew to a close no less than thirty five 20lb + & seven 30lb + carp had been hooked, played & weighed.

The carp action in this particular area over the next month or so was to be a real treat to say the least. I had great expectations & enthusiasm. Over 100 carp had quickly fell foul to the pebble rig, a scaled down version from what is used for the cat fishing, pebbles were oiled & left to soak, hook bait’s consisted of single pellet, either tipped with half / whole boilie or single grain of yellow plastic maize. Many personal best common carp fell, a battery of upper 30’s & low 40’s had graced the swims bank.

The swims main feature is a fishable point; either side of this point are unspoilt reed lined bays, one is shallow the other is much deeper with its opening home to a healthy & rich sunken weed bed. There is a wide marginal shelf that envelopes the point, resident fish are here for sure, my intention was to bump into the string of upper 40’s & especially the mid 50lb common that had seen my net & unhooking mat the previous time of year.
