Can\'t help you with waters in your area, but general advice would be to concentrate on locating the fish before getting too worried about baits and rigs. You could have the best bait presented superbly, but it won\'t catch if it\'s nowhere near any fish.

Might be worth you having a look through some of the carp articles on my other site:
