Carp Fishing Advice

As frustrating as it might be, carp fishing is tremendous. Carp are especially skillful at sucking in and blowing out dubious baits. It's such an exciting moment to see the whole action in a fraction of a second as you wait with baited breath to see if the fish will accept the bait
Carp happily feed on the surface of the water as long as you keep the pellets, biscuits, chic peas, bread, and re-hydrated corn coming and these are inexpensive baits too. Just affix the bait to the hooks: I think bread works the best. First soften the biscuits by dipping them in the water for about 2 minutes, then, put them in a sealed, plastic sandwich bag for about an hour. Given that different brands have different textures, you will just have to carry out trials to find out which kind is firm enough to cast. One more way to hook bait is by super gluing the pellet onto the shank of the hook.
Once they start feeding, let them feel at ease around the bait. This provides more opportunity for the angler since they will become less choosy. This tactic can be particularly useful for zig rigs.
Once they're feeding, cast the bait but make sure not to cast the bait directly onto the feeding carp. Cast away from the feeding spot then slowly draw the bait into position. While the bait is still hanging, keep the food coming in so as to deter the carp from leaving.
How to Set-Up Your Rig?
1 Use a hair rig to increase your prospect of catching fish. Seeing that carp taste their food first, they won't feed if they don't like the taste. 2 You may also use a Spider Line, 50 lbs breaking strain, then use a leader that suits the situation. 3 Thread the bait on the baiting needle and hook the hair loop. You may also use foam rubber dipped in a flavor in order to increase the attractiveness of the bait. ? You could also make a baiting needle by just straightening a long shank hook. Then slide the bait on the shank, and then slide the bait from the needle onto the hair. 4 Using a float is also an advantage because it adds weight in order to be able to cast farther, you will also be able to see where the bait is. 5 Don't forget the controller float rig. A leader can be affixed to the swivel on the mainline. It should be at least 3 feet in length with a 10lbs Drennan double strength. A low diameter mono will do, just as long as it floats well enough to be seen.
As experts say, it is not the bait that catches carp but the way in which the bait is offered. Pre-bait everyday, in one spot for a few days. This encourages the carp to think that there is a repeated supply of food for them and by ?word of mouth? there?ll soon be a shoal of fish around. Just be patient and it will all work out just dandy.
