My understanding is new rules brought to stop exactly that problem I'm almost exclusively a carp Fisher and am after a poke in the right direction of what to look out for in the lower ratio of test curve rod and rig
My lake is bringing in New rules moving to a smaller 1.5 test curve allowance for all rods as I'm quite new to fishing and haven't gone this low before any recommendations carp sizes I've caught before between 5/15 lb average
