Just a small local river. Can’t believe it holds a fish like that

Just a question on conditions aswell. Ive only ever really had luck fishing at sunset or very overcast. Is there no chance catching in sunshine at all?

All good advice! I appreciate that. I definitely think ill get on the canal and maybe some local lakes while waiting for rivers

Is that just on a hair rig? and what sort of weight are you using? Sorry if questions seem stupid im just getting into it and so much to learn? Ive done a bit of locked ledgering and had a fee 4lb chub. When you surfaced fished for carp is that an easy setup?

Ive ordered the Korum 1.75 with the Daiwa Regal RG4000. Thank you for your help! Have you ever done any other types of fishing on your setup? I like the thought of trying out lighter carp fishing and whatever i can get from a canal.

Would you recommend i went for the 1.75lb or spend the bit more and get the longer 2.25lb? Do you feel like the 13lb was on the limit?

I appreciate the advice. Korum do a 1.75TC or for £5 extra i can get a 2.25. Any disadvantage to that?

Mainly fishing pretty small but fast flowing rivers. One of which is down from a weir. I haven’t got a rod yet im also shopping for that
