spacer FAVORITE BAIT: spacer
spacer spacer spacer
spacer

TYPE OF BAIT: Boilies, hemp and anything that can be used on the surface
WHY YOUR FAVORITE: Boilies are such a versatile bait and are more consistent than most others for catching the better sized fish.
HOW TO USE BAIT: Spodding is my favourite tactic on the bottom with a mixture of hemp, pellet and whole and chopped up boilies making up the contents of the spod. For the surface a mix of different sized pellets either spodded, pulted or PVA bagged out.

spacer IAN POOLE TOP TIPS: spacer
spacer spacer spacer
spacer

TIP 1: When fishing over boilies I always use a mix of different sized free offerings if I can. This makes it much harder for a carp to work out which one is dangerous, and also gives you the option of fishing with several sizes on the hair.
TIP 2: Glug your floaters in a combination of Tutti Frutti and Richworth Minamino.
TIP 3: A small bait approach can be an excellent way of tempting bites when nothing else seems to be working. Despite being widely available, 10mm boilies are still used by a very small percentage of anglers' and fished over a bed of small particles can really score where larger baits are being ignored
