Thx really help me

[@trudytwilite]

Hello from the U.S.. I've taken this winter to learn how to tie all the different carp rigs I come across on here. I've learned a lot from you. Your videos are well organized and clear to understand. The toughest thing here is finding tackle and decent braid that can be stripped, but I did O.K.. :) Now that I have oodles of rigs in my arsenal, I'm wondering what rig do you use most? Also, I fish in an old quarry. Rocky bottom with black silt. Any recommendations? I think I overwhelmed myself but it's been fun. I don't want to take all these options to the lake in the Spring. I'm having a ball fishing for carp because no one else fishes for them here. I think there's only one gentleman besides myself.

[@callofdutymodernwarfare2291]

[@facts7250]

Hi Carl and Alex I am I big fan been watching all you videos daily I have caught some great carp by watching your videos but can’t seem to catch a big one even a 20 pounder would be amazing was wounding if you could give me any tips it would be much appreciated as I have put so many man hours in to fishing and not caught anything don’t know what I am doing wrong but would love some advice thank you Callum 💚👊🏾🐟

[@robgit]

great videos from you both - I stopped fishing 30 years ago and just restarting - can you give a list of items/names in videoso i can buy them all please?

[@jackbussell2382]

carl and Alex can you do a vedio on what lines to use for what area and what fish ?

[@Sam-ut6tg]

Liove your vids do a colab with catfish and carp

[@forducksnake1571]

Hey Carl and Alex. Would it be possible to get a pellet waggler tutorial please?

[@iangoki1752]

What size slipt shot would you put on before the hook/pop up?

[@northgacountryliving4129]

just use some split shot weight and a treble hook, keep it simple and works great

[@harrison9270]

Hello

[@lukejay7638]

Can we get a rock fishing tutorial please lads

[@th3remedy877]

Question, will I lose the lead on each cast? Or does it need to snag a bit harder to lose it?

[@mark2035]

Can I use this set up if I swap the weight for a maggot feeder ? Thanks in advance.

[@N1VERD3RG]

Hate the way it skips from step to step and your sat there wondering how he done certain parts of it🤷🏻‍♂️

[@alanmarriott9216]

Can I ask what type of rig people use when going night fishing for carp set up on baits alarms please?

[@cosworth1616]

With the coated hooklink does it matter what the lb strain is compared to a mainline? I have 12lb mainline so what should i get

[@davidkerrison3683]

What’s the best braid to fit to my Spod rod reel it’s a 8000 big pit ?

[@easternundergroundsounds6977]

Can you do a vedio on hook sharpening?

[@thediligentdungbeetle8116]

Would a similar rig work for bream on a river at this time of year

[@MountainMissions]

sorry late comment but when you say anti-tangle sleeve - this is not the rig tubing is it? Didnt see anti tangle sleeves in lead clip action pack.

[@grayz6079]

Hi Carl and Alex

[@Floydy_4]

Can I use tubing as an anti tangle sleeve

[@fullsquish4863]

Do you use a float with this set up? I’m new to fishing and still learning :)

[@FelixFiske]

No you have a stretched/tight line and either look at the rod tip for bends & twitches or use bite indicator alarms. You are using the lead to present the bait on the bottom/ledgering and be able to throw it far. Float fishing can also be fished on the bottom but can rarely be thrown as far and requires a little more preparation to fish at the right dept. You can float fish for carp if you want and you don't even need a float to catch fish you can try just a rod, line and a hook with some bait on and that can work aswell (freelining)

[@oscar_is_carping4506]

what boilies would you recommend for carp as im a new angler and only 12 and have no clue what boilies are good?

[@olivermcqueen5654]

It depends what types of lakes your fishing. if there day ticket venues then maybe go for the mainline response boilies (that's what I use) or if you go for longer sessions maybe try high impact boilies or freezer boilies.👍

[@blackcat363]

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@ArchieAnker]

My lead is 3.5 oz, will it be ok

[@alfiespainfishing4167]

What is your favourite rig in winter

[@KG-jp6rx]

do octopus hooks work with hair rigs

[@dicedude1071]

What would you recommend as the best strategy to catch carp without spreading excess bait around where you're fishing? I live in an area where chumming of all types is illegal including corn, so every tip video for carp that tells me to do that hasn't been very useful

[@masonhoward7679]

Depends find the fish and put a single out

[@jonathondavies8347]

question. I've seen where the hook length is substantially stronger than the main line. wouldn't the main line snap first, thus making what was a safe rig, unsafe?

[@fishingtutorials]

Yes, the hooklink is made of braid and therefore it's better to use a stronger braid than the mainline. The reason for this is that light braid is very thin and can cut into the fish's mouth quite badly. It's not an ideal situation, so we just make sure we play fish sensibly and don't cast into snags. :) Thanks!

[@morganhill497]

I cort a 23 pound carp on the same rig under the trees u do fish in a snaggy water u need to get on the rod fast or it will snag u up.and loose all your stuff ✌✌✌👍👍👍

[@TheJOBEATZ]

How do you fish with no leader can you do a video if you don’t have one ?

[@connorm2279]

Hi guys, I’m looking for some tips when fishing for carp as I’m just new. I fish at a day ticket pond and I use a very similar set up to this, although I add a kicker over the hook and I use a 15mm hi vis pop up boillie, usually white or pink. I then attach a PVA mesh over the hook which consists over bread, sweetcorn, 2 and 4mm bloodworm pellets and pinto beans. I usually cast out and leave it 30 to 45 mins before changing the mesh however, I am just having no luck at all and I’ve been 6 times fishing from anywhere from 6 to 10 hours and I’m not even getting a bite even though I can see the carp In the water. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I am a total novice.

[@thepolishbrat112]

not an expert but maybe try using a smaller pop up or a different rig?

[@finparsonson4914]

Best advice I can give is before you fish always do a lap or two of the lake/pond, find the fish before you put your rods out, the weather conditions always depend on how the fish will be reacting to bait/feeding. Usually warmer weather the fish will be in the upper layers of water, technically then you could use floater baits and zig rigs, but they’re to look at when you have a bit more knowledge behind you. Try different baits as well, venture around the different baits and see which works, then stick to that. Going back to weather conditions, if it’s a windy day always check what direction the wind is going in, southerly winds usually are good for a bite, in situations like this you’d want to fish in a corner or bank wind is pushing into, northerly winds are usually colder, so you would want to fish on the back of the wind where the water will be warmer. Defo something to look into when fishing into the colder months. One last thing, winter fishing never over feed the fish. When the water is colder the fish digest their food a lot slower, meaning they won’t eat as much. So your best bet going into-wards the winter is to just use a single hook bait with maybe a few boilies around the bait, you also want to find deeper spots of the water as well as that’s where the fish will be held, in little deep pockets as that’s where the water will be the warmest. Anyway mate i hope that helped a bit and definitely let me know if it did you any joy!!

[@andrewmcpherson1225]

it's probably got more to do with where your fishing than the set up ..most rigs are over engineerd and complicated just so the fishing tackle company's can make money ..along as you've got a decent size 6 hook and a bait on the right lake during summer then ull catch something..

[@nerokys8479]

My coated braid keeps being stripped at the knot when trying loop/figure 8 knot, does it matter? Any tips?

[@nerokys8479]

Any help anyone?

[@robertbell4540]

Hi guys does my son have to strip the front of the braid of or can he get away with out doing it

[@fishingtutorials]

It’ll work fine without, it’s a minor thing!

[@jackwebb9447]

Why are u not uploading on the Carl and Alex channel ????

[@michaellawton2714]

where did he get the anti tangle sleeve from?

[@fishingtutorials]

Local tackle shop 👌 or you can also buy online.

[@davidhatton8775]

What type of corn are you using in this video?

[@fishingtutorials]

Korda Fake Corn :)

[@jarzsplays6316]

snowman rig?

[@TheGamer-ky8nt]

Bro iam from India we can use real corn

[@fishingtutorials]

Corn is a great bait!

[@oscar_is_carping4506]

how much tubing do you cut of?

[@fishingtutorials]

At a minimum it needs to be a little longer than your hooklink, this will reduce tangles. But we'd say around 1ft or 30cm roughly will be helpful to keep line away from fish when they are feeding and protect their scales when playing them! :)

[@oscar_is_carping4506]

@@fishingtutorials thank you so much. im going fishing on the weekend for carp and i wanted to know if you can use boilies in the winter or should you use maggots or other bait?

[@posavec69]

2.

[@Loonstadk]

Wonder if anyone in the comments or Alex/Carl can tell me more about dropping the lead, I’m new to rigs/leads ect ect only float fished. I’m confused/concerned about dropping lead every time I fish seems strange and expensive. Is there a lead system/rig that’s safe but doesn’t just drop lead on every fish. Thanks if anyone responds

[@englishdon3787]

It doesn't drop the lead on every catch, it only drops the lead if it gets caught in something.

[@just2solid]

what is the actual name of this rig as opposed to a "simple rig" ?

[@fishingtutorials]

Hair rig!

[@greedycarperfishing8364]

I think there running out of tutorials

[@darryltaylor9614]

I keep losing weights using those lead clips I know there designed to drop the weights but when your losing a weight every fish you catch it starts getting annoying and costly so personally I really don't rate lead clips

[@cainshadbolt4233]

Just push it on a bit tighter lad, so that it won’t come off unless it’s under immense pressure in the snags etc

[@darryltaylor9614]

Yea I do push them on tight just bad luck I guess .and I only use small weights too

[@sharpysparky5505]

Running rig???

[@KBass9723]

These tips might help you, but how I have found success is tossing all this s*** out, grabbing yourself some swim/crank and spinnerbaits and fishing for Bass, Musky, Pike ,and walleye🤷 to each their own...🇺🇲

[@crazycarpguy1074]

Jeez boss. Calm down. I love carp fishing in the USA although I also like to catch musky.
