Carpfishing Crapfishing appeared in 1978. The creators of it were Kevin Maddock and Lenny Middleton who discovered a new type of hook which can hook the carps better than the others because this hook holds the bait with a hair. The objective of this type of fishing  is catching a big fish and then releasing it to the water. If you want to practice this technique you should have two good rods, two big reels, a lot of line because you need to throw a far distance, a strong rod pod for supporting the rods, two alarms that ring when the carp runs and a big net and a padding blanket. Then you choose your favourite bait. One of the best fishermen in Spain is David Molina. He's from Extremadura and he was the first Spanish fisherman who participated in a world championship. He catches many fish and he knows where they are.
