Make a fish finder rig with the size 8 hook - chum the area with a few pounds of sweet corn for about two days before you plan to fish - this teaches the carp to feed there.

Chum a few handfuls right before you start fishing, cast out with a few kernels of corn on the hook and wait - can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours to get the carp to pick up your bait.

make sure your drag is loose or you can lose your rod!
Thanks!

That is an excellent plan, I will have to try it!
