Still Skiving off

Three grains of scopex pips and a piece of artificial maize on a simple hair rig.

Today's lonely carp.

I took another day off work again today (I could get used to this!) to do some more fishing. I only caught one carp but it was a nice 28 pound common,  so I can’t complain.

Tackle-wise I used my usual rig today,  a simple hair rig using twelve pound Maxima and a #4 Partridge F5 hook.  I use a Palomar knot to connect the swivel and the no-knot knot to connect the hook and make the hair.  A three ounce inline lead fished semi-fixed for the bolt effect.
