I use a Eze-Lap diamond file. Its not expensive, works great, and doesn't take up much space at all in my tackle bag.

Hi i am from Greece and recently i visited a small lake in a private property with only carps. The lake was build at 1994 and after 2 years 30.000 small carps were introduced in the 16 meters deep waters. The owner uses the water for his farm and no one has ever fished there. This was obvious as i saw carps of different sizes passing very near the margins.Also the owner told me that he sees occasionally fish splashing on the surface at enormous sizes, I didnt even think to fish as the underwater trees pevented the whole idea. Scattered a few baits on the surface but there was no acticity. With my portable fish sonar i discovered 2 clear spots with a perimeter about 20 meters. Any thoughts about how to fish this lake will be very very usefull.

After a hot day ( 93°F) results : manage to get in the net 3 fish all early in the morning. Sadly 2 carps after a ferocious run got tangled in the underwater trees. Very difficult water but plenty of fish splashing with scaring sounds in the middle of the lake leaving large circles. Bait: snowman fishmeal(lt94/herring meal/Robin red/salts/Black pepper) with corn on one rod and greek red saffron corn boilies on the second rod . Prebaited the area with 1 kilo of boilies and 2 kilos of particles. The weather will get worse the following days making the lake road inaccessible. Hope next spring to arrive at this water with more bright ideas.
