Top Tips: 

Cast out with a gripper lead when fishing in open water to hopefully find a gravel bottom, this is normally the best type of bottom for carp to feed on.

Always use a method mould as it really helps to compress the bait on the feeder for best presentation.

Always have a bait box full of water on your side tray to keep your feeder pellets consistent throughout your match.

Make sure your 2mm pellets for the feeder are as soft as you can get away with, the softer the better as long as they stay on the feeder on the cast.

Check the elastic inside feeders after every match and make sure it isn’t frayed. Little things make such a difference to the end result.
