Night fishing..

I painted Chris Yates seeking his quarry at Redmire, centre pin reels, Avon mk IV’s and a big old moon. This for me is fishing, no electronics, just disconnect and human skill sinking back into nature.

I'm curious, how do you deal with the heat during long sessions?

Summer carp fishing is a whole different challenge. When it's over 30°C outside, those long sessions turn into a real survival test

This was my setup during my last trip. I spent most of the time hiding in the shade and even dragged my bedchair outside just to catch a bit of breeze

Lastly how'd i do? boom section is gonna be either 25lb big game i could go heavier if need be be, or omc blend coated hooklink in 25lb.

input is appreciated.

Inline Lead vs Sliding Egg leads

What are the advantages and disadvantages to using either one on your Carp rig outside of Inline leads being able to setup bagged chumming methods?

Any brand recommendations for either ones as well?

How do you set your drag in the rod holder if you don’t have a baitrunner?

I usually leave it super loose and manually turn it back up when a fish takes it, but I’ve been losing a lot of fish lately and it’s got me rethinking

How to catch finicky koi?

I keep seeing this koi that rarely ever eats off top water bread, is always close to bank but not close enough for accurate casts, and often bites sinking bread but never gets hooked, have missed him 3 times already and need tips on how you guys catch them in pressured ponds or lakes
