Ask Roto, apparently he is a master at landing weed, according to undisclosed sources it even kited on a still water.

Julian Cundiff says "If one thing is guaranteed to hold carp for months its areas of thick weed growth.
Loved by carp and carp anglers alike,these areas are a magnet to both and one of your best bets on most waters.
For unknown reasons some carp anglers steer clear of weeds,but by doing so they cut down on their options some what.
Providing your tackle is sensible,your bait is placed in the appropiate spot and that you are alert ,you can land fish from such areas with regularity."

you hook would come back with weed on, as your reeling back thru it. i wouldnt worry, the fish'll find the bait - try a normal bottom bait.
