Best Methods and Tactics

 

If you are targeting the larger resident carp boiles, 8 or 10mm pellets, Corn and Pop ups work all year round.

Simple PVA bag tactics throughout the year and during the summer months. Zig fishing can produce the goods or a simple bomb & pellet or pellet waggler tactics.

 

The silver fish sport can be fantastic all year round with caster, maggots and worms the perfect bait when targeting pretty much all the silvers but if you are trying to be more selective for the skimmers and crucian carp soft pellets and groundbait work best.
