    I love free lining with crust. I have my trusty 35+ year old Mitchell reel & Marco 10ft carbon rod with fugi rings (they were a big thing when I was a young teen 😂) setup ready to fish when the carp come to surface. This older rod is quite flexible so is ideally suited to close in fishing like this. I find literally fishing less than 20cm from the bank works a treat, the line isn’t even in the water. Can’t wait for my local lake to reopen on June the 1st.

    Best type of fishing for me! I always try to bait with floating pellets (bread or pop up on hook) . But if there's just a little bit of wind, your pellets will float away from your bait. So try to fish like this only when there's zero wind. Sorry for english and greetings from Slovenia :)

    Freelining is the only tactic I use to catch big Carp. Without a doubt the easiest and best method.
    Sat on the bank, waiting for an alarm to go off is quite frankly, somewhat boring. With freelining you get to see all the action, and feel a part of it.
    Nothing beats the adrenaline rush of watching some monster weigh up your bait, and decide whether or not to take it 😎
