One sweltering afternoon the carp were all sitting in the top layer, and I had no floating bait with me
so I went to the on-site shop to see what flaoting baits they sold, and they had nothing either
so, next best was anything that floats, so I picked up a pack of rainbow drops (those sugary puffed rice multicoloured sweets) and the carp loved them! very hard to keep on the hook, as they went soggy immediately, but I got some sport from an otherwise dead session
