Margins with meat always used to work well for me there

I had a few in a session last summer. All really close in to the bank. Stalked a couple and then just put mesh bags with bait on showing fish near.

Probably not much help if you want to know beforehand. But when I went a while back there was a map pegged in each swim denoting boundary and max wraps.. modern carp fishing at its finest..

I'd be surprised if that wasn't on there site somewhere

Did well last time on there using Carp Company Nut mix. The MC Nut bait they sell works very well.

Wraysbury Baits MC Nut is stocked there which is very good. I caught on atlantic heat with pink corn toppers. Had three nice commons and a stunning 26lb fully scaled. They aren't massive in there but really nice fish.

Can I ask why the need to know the wraps before hand? You looking to wrap up before fishing or something?
