In this issue

Die naam sê alles - VisKoors is vir elkeen wat ‘n passie het vir hengel. In hierdie uitgawe:

What kind of carp angler are you?
To myself and many other carp anglers, both competitor and social alike, there is nothing better than that moment of triumph when we stand back and see your catch, a stream lined, deep bellied body covered with glistening silvery brown scales safely nestled in the landing net... – Paul Rawsthorne
Stille waters – diepe grond
Daar is niks beter as om te gaan hengel en ontspan tydens die Desembervakansie nie! Baie mense verkies dit om langs die kus in die branders te gaan baljaar, maar ander, soos ek en my neef Blikkies, sal eerder die gejaagdheid iewers langs ‘n rivier wil ontsnap. – Pierre le Roux

Understanding dips
There are an overwhelming amount of carp dips and liquid bait attractants on the shelves in today’s market, excluding the experiments we make at home ourselves. It can be very confusing for the beginner or social carp fisherman to choose a starting point at what dips to buy, use where and what combinations are the ‘right’ one for the day’s chosen swim. – Paul Rawsthorne
