When it comes to baits and techniques, again almost anything goes. Whilst most anglers going for the carp tend to use hair-rigged boilies fished to the central area of the lake or along the bank to pick up patrolling fish, others go for a straightforward waggler using baits as small as single or double maggot.
Many anglers opt for both ledger and waggler options, fishing hair-rigged boilies, clusters of sweetcorn or larger pellets on one rod and soft hooker pellets, maggots, sweetcorn or worm closer in on the waggler with the other rod.
When targeting the tench and bream, baiting up with coarse fish pellets, groundbait and hook samples is a popular technique, fishing over the bed of groundbait with a bunch of four or five maggots, worm, pieces of sweetcorn, bread-based baits, soft hooker pellets or casters, casters and worm expected to be most effective in winter.
