Floater Fishing
One of the most exciting ways to catch carp!

..........Here's a few weird & wonderful rigs.........
There are many variations of these rigs, try them all!
Find your favorite & adapt them to your liking!

Controllers are easily obtainable from any good tackle shop in various sizes which you can choose according to the distance you need to cast, in general use the smallest you can get away with so take a range of sizes with you.

Here's another good use for a controller float.

A couple of weird but useful rigs here, both effective on their day and in the right situation.

...............................................................................................

The suspender rig can be a real good catcher. it's very important to get the hooklength right,
When the suspender is held upright the bait should be just above the cork body.

Here we take a look at hook mounting.

In general the best approach to floater fishing is to be patient & quiet. Fish with another method while you bait up, try to wait until the carp are really on the baits, this is a generalization & there are many other methods but start here & you wont go far wrong!
