Carp Fishing to Islands: Casting tight to islands or far margins can be a huge edge! These areas are often a safe place for the carp, getting your rig as close to the bank or under an overhanging tree, can be the difference between success or failure. Mike Jarvis is at East Delph lakes, carp fishing on the front lake. He has an island in front with a margin to his left. During this spring time session, Mike explains his techniques, tackle and tactics when carp fishing tight to islands or margins. This type of fishing can be daunting but using the correct tackle and techniques you can fish spots that have potentially never been fished before!
