what size carp are you fishing for?

Flumpy tell us the size of the bait and the size of the fish your after and we may be able to help.

As a general rule the hook size should be in proportion with the bait i.e a 16mm boilie would probably be matched with a size 8 hook.

The most important thing to remember is use a hook that can land the fish.
