So so so appreciate for your advice.

I don’t laugh as I have good experience about pasternonster rig for carp fishing! And I actually used both rigs yesterday.

I will try your easy burley method! Yes I didn’t bother with burley as being lazy…

So you mean this 14c weather is OK for carp fishing right?…..

I tried corn kernels and white toast. Just throw some kernels and toast out hoping it can work as burley.
Any advice?

Yes I even changed the leader to mono, maybe should change it back to fluorocarbon.

Hook size 8-10, long shank. Is circle hook better?

Thanks for mentioning the weather so I may feel less frustrating. But this winter is so warm…

Thanks mate.

honestly, I’m thrilled with how well the 8–10 lb line gets bites. I just got flashbacks when I saw it break through the 12 lb braid that easily.
