| Re: NEW to carp fishing! plz give me some tips! It depends what size carp are in the lake you fish really. I use 12lb mainline to a 15lb bs braided hooklink size 6 or 8 hair rig hook. I don't think rigs matter to much, I just use a korda 1oz inline lead-swivel-hooklink. Most baits will catch, meat, worms, boilies, bread, sweetcorn etc.. My favoured baits are boilies as they can stay on the hook for a long time, keep there flavour etc.. Although most of my biggest fish have come to luncheon meat. Hope some of this may help. If you need any more help, ask __________________ Dan `·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸ Big or small, look after them all! ¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> |

| HI Just a quick question, do you guys use the anti-tangle tubing? I use a ledger and hair rig, does the tubing on the ledger link really make that much difference? Thanks for any Info Falve |

| Re: NEW to carp fishing! plz give me some tips! Hi Valve. I personally don't use the stuff and still catch plenty. However I have 2 mates who swear by the stuff, so it's personal preferences I guess. __________________ Dan `·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸ Big or small, look after them all! ¸.·´¯`·.¸ ><((((º> |
