i've hooked 1lb roach, fair and square on size 8 hooks

If its any more or less than 2" you WON'T catch. Use a ruler just to be safe! its got to have a 49mm hair also
-
prefer the 1080 myself
-
no problem john. just don't let too many people know. can't be having people actualy catching carp can we

pre-baiting only works if you fish the same swim as you throw the bait into
-
no problem ARL, do me a favor though, keep it to yourself, don't tell enyone. its a top secret carp catcher

what you need is a double bottom bait popped up exactly 2" on a semi fixed chod-bolt rig

Aiken... jack hiltons, can't beat em

errrm, try feathering the cast so the rig/lead land in a straight line. when you 'dump' your rig in the edge it does'nt give a true representation of what your rig looks like 50mtrs out( unless your into scuba aswell)

i still use mono if not fishing crystal clear water, i use drennan double strength 15lb

here we go again leadcore argument no4 guys lets face it, its all been said in other threads bully32 use the search button please

you only use leadcore as a leader not as a way of "tying" rigs, and if done wrong can possibly cause damage or even death to our prized fish use florocarbon, braid or mono to tie rigs with
-
hi, serious question....... why do you need to use leadcore? it doesn't 'hug' the bottom any kinks stick out like a sore thumb, off the bottom.flourocarbon much better in my opinion if you must use leadcore you can get ready made leaders (esp i thinks the best) they are about 4 quid each but ask yourself " why do i need leadcore)
-
there are safe zone leaders that are not leadcore, tfg do one also
-
gotta be Chris Yates The Secret Carp, you could almost be there with him non fishing any david gemmel book brilliant
-
hey guy's puzzle for you. years ago( late 70's early 80's) i used to get a fishing mag( can't remember the name) but each month chris yates did an article called shining times which were tales of his fishing. now my questin.... did he compile them into a book, would love to get them again
