The lads discuss strategic baiting tactics for Spring—when to hold back, when to commit. We hear a few honest accounts of near misses, and the mindset behind targeting specific carp. Plus we dive into some insightful technical discussions on zig rigs, sediment build-up, line maintenance, and bait presentation. Finally a interesting chat and reflection on how lighter, more refined tackle setups seem to get you more bites. Plus, we tease an upcoming Korda vs. Guru-style showdown—carp anglers going head-to-head with top match anglers on their own turf. Can traditional carpers adapt to the precision of feeder tactics?
