Hi all,i don't know anything about carp fishing usa style being a newbie from England on here but i thought i would tell you what i find catches carp a lot in England,LUNCHEON meat(it might have a different name over here)but if it is flavored with garlic then you will catch with it for sure.

In England i find Bream like this meat but i have caught many carp on it including my Pb at 20lb last year,it might not be big by the standards set over here but it is a good carp to me,i hope some of you use this bait if not then i would suggest giving it a go you can Hair rig it or put it on a method feeder with short hook length of between 3/6inches or straight on the hook and ledger out as a bolt rig set up,hope it helps you catch plenty;)
