Fishing Techniques
- For Common carp
Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
- For Mirror carp
Pre-baiting your chosen swim for several days prior to fishing can significantly increase your chances of success when targeting mirror carp.
- For Rainbow trout
Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
