I have joined a small carp fishing syndicate on a 2 acre lake about 5 miles form where I live. It has all the classic features - lilies, rushes, weedbeds. It is totally ringed by trees and contains mirrors and commons from about 12 lbs to just short of 30 lbs.
I will be doing a full recce of the water this long weekend when my access key arrives.
Tackle will not be a problem. I intend to use my 1 1/2 lb test curve FM Concepts with 12lb line. Shimano Stradics will be ideal. I have a couple of Delkims which I will use in conjunction with 4 rod rests. Don't need pods as far as I can see.
I intend to bait up with sweetcorn and mashed bread.
It looks the ideal place for floater fishing.
Any further advice will be welcome, I haven't fished seriously for carp since 1979.
