Fishing Techniques
- For European perch
Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
- For Tench
Pre-baiting your swim with particles like hemp or corn can significantly improve your chances of attracting tench and holding them in your fishing area.
- For Common carp
Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
