back leads

[johnhufton]

Hello Can anyone tell me about back leads for river carp fishing? How big a lead do you use and can you use any lead or do you have to buy special leads for this?
Any advise gratefully received. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice. I've been fishing at Laleham(non-tidal) and had a bash at Ham (tidal). Only been out 3 times, no carp as yet. But I'm told there are a lot of carp in the Thames so I'm determined to catch one! Do they hang about in the flow or would targetting a slack be better?
Thanks

Thanks
You get a lot of gravel, and slack water, next to the islands don't you. Is that a good area to fish? Will persevere.
Tight lines!

take a marker float to the are the day before if permitted and if you can and scatter some bait in and around the areas heres wat to look for when markering around.
