    over boilies and the like – they move!! That little bit of movement seems to inspire the carp into ‘having' a go. You can simply hook them onto a hook as you'd do with any bait or as I do you can thread them onto a piece of fine line and hair rig them on. This keeps them very lively and allows you to have anything from six to sixty maggots at once. Tie the line to the hook and away you go.

Just like most kids I was using a bright red and white bobber with a nightcrawler wriggling on the hook. It was just before dusk.

    “Aren’t you a little old for that?” “Isn’t that for little kids?” “You need to grow up.” There comes a time where everyone hears those words. It normally happens when you get into high school. Teenagers try to ditch their childish image just as Miley Cyrus tried to ditch her Hannah Montana image. Those young adults are trying to remove the “young” part and prove they are just adults.
