littlebugger Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 hi, im fairly new to carp fishing ( about a year ) and as shamefull as it is i have always been a fair weather fisherman. My local lake ( hayfield-doncaster ) has recently banned all surface baits and as i have only ever fished it on the surface i am clueless on what method to use now, the carp are up towards the surface at the moment can anyone help me with other methods try and how to tie a suitable rig ? thanks, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang your head in shame, its why anglers who fish all your round cant get onto their lake during warm weather bank holiday periods cos you lot have stitched all the swims up before we can get down there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
