Hi all, thanks very much for the information regarding rigs etc. I am fortunate enough to live very close to the river and have fished it extensively for pike from my boat so I know the area very well. There are carp in numbers in most of the areas where I intend to bivvy up from but the biggest problem is the bream, there's thousands of the things! I guess I will just have to try bigger baits and try to fish through them.......... Thanks again Rob...

Hi all. I have just come back to the joys of Carp fishing after several years of chasing other shadows. I now have a real bee in my bonnet concerning river carp. I have acees to a large river which holds some very big fish. i would be most obliged if anyone could give me any tips concerning rigs for such fish, do you recommend straightforward knotless knot type sets ups or would anything else be more appropriate. I do know that these carp get a little bit of pressure but as far as I know they don't get to see a lot of bait (too many bream) or carpers targetting them. i have just purchased Neil Waytes River Carp book but that doesn't seem to include rigs etc....... Many thanks in advance. Rob...
