what kind of fish is them:crazy:try and chum the area with some corn and then cast right in the middle of it.i think it also depends on what kind of carp they are. i know of a pond that is full of {grass carp so they have been called} and i can't get them things to bite for nothing. dough baits can work really good also.
Have you ever try using other than corn as dough base such as potato or bread, fish food in the form of pellet? Are they also banned? If not, then try to make one using them as base with some scents (vanilla + banana - dominant mixture and shrimp or tuna - just a few drops). Works well in my country and catching carp in a small pond is very easy. Let me know how it goes.Bow fishing for carp is very fun . Or a strawberry flavor dough bait or vanilla . corn is the best here but it is banned also .
Leader can still be used but use of the fluorocarbon type and if you use sinkers, make sure you give 5 - 10 cm room for the line to move (between two stoppers - in my country it is called 'bumper'). That way when a big carp is swallowing the bait, it won't be allerted by the weight of the sinker. This is for the bottom fishing technique.If there are no rangers around i would go for the corn...................................................................................... or, you could go with a dough ball. Google up some doughbait recipes and go fishing. dont use lead by th way because you may scare the fish away.
get your self a big cage make it to where they cant get out when they come in and dog food and dump it in there, most of the time that will work. Good luck!:smile2:i need some help if any body knows how to catch carp in really small ponds
