It is ok Mick1396, i do not mind a bit of mocking, i had the same when i started fly fishing. My father has some waters and have them for fly fishing, one has some carp which no one has caught, so i thought maybe it was time to try something different. Thank you for your help.

Which hook would one say was best or strong enough for carp to say 45lbs.?

No, i must admit i have only fished for salmon, trout, well all the game fish, but not course, my bailiff is ready to show me the ropes, but i need more information, and you people seem quite knowledgable on the ways of catching carp.

Sorry gentlemen for sounding ignorant but could you explain what is coated braid and what it is used for, my carp fishing outings are zero at the moment as i have just given up my fly fishing for a while, so though i would try my hand at carp fishing. I have spent some time studying your very helpful pages and decided to sign up. thankyou.
