There you are, I have said it!
Back in the 80’s it was rare to see any carp angler plumbing their swim, as it was referred to back then. Marker work, as we refer to it now, was almost non-existent on the venues I frequented and they were stretched far and wide in the 80’s, from Essex all the way up through the country and well into Lincolnshire as well as into the West Midlands. Yes, I got about a lot as back then I had to if I wanted to fish for larger carp than I had available locally to me.
Feeling the lead down.
Matt Asks: I just wanted to ask a question about feeling the lead down after a cast. Do you always feel for the bump even if fishing on soft silty type bottom where it will be hard to feel any bumps and should I always recast if I don’t feel anything. Thanks Matt
