Wonder bread and stale bread freelined on top of the surface early am.
Carp come up and smack it on top fo the water. Boiled potatoes work good too.

I've caught some pretty big ones in a canal by my house on bread. Lost some 30+ pounders due to the structure that I fish there. I use straight 6 pound test on them and their sometimes fun, they kinda pull like nurse sharks if not less.

Hi all, the bait we use back here in north wales is lunchon meat fished under a lite float no shot on the line and a very sharp sakuma size 4-8 hook use a 12lb braid that is a close to the water colour and tight to the margins and the bites will take your rod out of your hands if you don't hold on tight tight lines .
