Hi Ingram, Could i ask where is the fishery located as there is a lake of which you describe in leicester but your location says dumfries quite some distance apart. Paul

Never fished it but these methods may be worth ago, choddy with pineapple pop up on one rod and with the other have a lead about for a hard spot 2-3 spods of maggot over the top and fish dead maggots on the hair with a mix of dead and live maggot in a pva bag. Both are good winter methods. With the chod rig I may be tempted to move it every couple of hours and search the swim a bit. You often find with winter carp they shoal up tight in one spot on the lake, find this spot and you can really get good results.
