Certainly is strange what you can catch Carp on.

And a lot of Carp with wind I always wondered why they bubbled so well Just thought, this could solve Del's problem finding fish in his new water. Spod out a few kilos of beans, soon see where the are then

I'll get my Mrs to cook them 1st,then they're guaranteed to stay on the hair

I have to be honest,Adam,if i am doing a 3 dayer i really don't want to be sat there worrying and thinking about my presentation.You are however right in what you say.I don't do enough fishing to experiment,wish i did.Last yr i lost 2 fish,one took me through a nasty snag and the other turned at the net and threw the hook.I did on one occasion get a day when i had loads of runs and by the time i got to the rod it stopped.For some reason this was happening all round the lake,i did try different rigs but still the same.I walked round the lake asking the other guys and they couldn't understand it either.But early hours it went mental,i had 3 fish and a total of 23 out between 9 anglers.From 10 am that day not another run for anyone until the following day.

I am a big believer in simple.For most of my fishing i use 15lb amnesia,black or clear depending on situation,and 15lb IQ.If i get takes with no result i will alter the length of hair and or length of rig.If i still get takes and the fish drops it i will go onto braid. This yr the only thing i am changing is rather than use a swivel on the hooklink i will tie a loop and use the quick links. I am also going to use flying backleads.
