Hi Everyone i have only recently joined the forum and could do with some help on my new local lake.
Having moved to Telford over the winter i have been spending lots of time at my local lake in Apley.
Its a big water around 5-6ft deep with a silty / gravell bottom.
My first trip a few weeks ago i managed a 12lb common using a Homemade paste bait but despite several early morning and late evening trips bites are proving hard to come by.
Im far from being a carp expert and i generally like to float and feeder fish but the carp in the lake give a good run so would defiantly like to be catching a few more.
I have tried pop up boiles and PVA bags of pellets with past and boilies but to no avail.
Does anyone have any get back to basics for carp fishing that might help.
Cheers.
