sorry ian, i responed yesterday, but i pressed the wrong button and put my reply in you original post...!!!!
small pockets of crushed baits is a method i'd use.....or drop your lead size down and wrap a good quality paste around your lead and shorten your hooklnk with a small 14mm boillie.

I'm down this weekend, done well last time, landed 15 fish in a night biggest 18, on a new bait I was testing an the cell. 4kg spread around with a throwing stick and fished the rods on a 4ft plateau, that was about 6" long, and 4" wide. Seemed to be a good spot as I saw loads rolling over it,
oh and please can we get rid of the idiot that think it's ok to pull peoples alarms in the middle of the night!!!!!!!!!!

Had a break from my syndicate and went on mallard a couple of weeks ago, managed 14 fish in 24 hours, over a huge bed of particle and about 5kg of boilies.
In my experience mate, fish your rod three quarters of the way across, all 3 rods on a small area and spod the granny out of it, should get a big hit as it's quite easy to do so, I'm down this weekend to for bait of fun and a socialise with some mates
Good luck
Dan

Hi mate. 1)good pegs = where ever the carp are showing. 2)methods = if using boillies then i wld say about 30 freebies then just keep topping area up after each take with same amount. 3)rigs = keep them simple mate, and i mean simple. as for spawning then i wld give phill or big jon the tackle tart a ring (they mite want a coffee on the bank in return for info lol)

Cheers Dodge... All common sense info!! Hopefully if I see fish showing there'll be a free peg or two... Hoping to get there between 4-6pm Friday so I'm thinking I may have to have what's available!! As for the spawning info..... I'm going regardless so if they are, they are! But if big Jon or phill want a coffee they're more than welcome..... Just bring a mug!!!

There were no fish showing at all...... Where do you set up when that happens?? Anyway, only did 24hrs.... No bites, no fish showing and a very poorly baby at home was enough to stop be attempting the 2nd 24 hours!! Maybe next time!!!!!

Never mind Dash maybe next time, some of the fish have spawned but not all, I'm hoping that this hot spell will see them all get sorted and we can get back to normality.
