Thread: Catching Koi Carp

After seeing how many koi carp are in the Waikato river I decided to have some fun catching carp for berley and bait. Never fished for carp before, heard they like bread and corn but what is the best and easiest rig to tie up and us for carp?

Keep it simple. Hook, leader, swivel, sinker free running on mainline. Use the smallest sinker possible to combat current if on a river. Better still, find an area of slack water and don't use a sinker. Use small, strong hooks. Lots of sweetcorn and mashed up bread thrown in to the area you are fishing.
