How do you prepare and set up for flounder fishing?
This depends on your local fishing regulations. A typical rig uses a three-way swivel. One swivel is tied to your main line. The second goes to a weight, typically 18" to 24". The third swivel goes to a piece of fluorocarbon or monofilament fishing line, longer than your line to the weight, with a hook sized to match your local live bait. A trap hook, usually a smaller treble, is connected to the third swivel and pinned into the rear of the bait. If you use an artificial bait, leave off the trap hook.

What is the best way to catch carp on ledger bomb?
The Ledger is simply a weight that is attached to the end of a fishing line. For fishing it is essential that the main line from a reel is terminated in a hook length of line that is of slightly lesser strength ie mainline 12lb and terminal line 10lb. This ensures that if the fish breaks the line it is not dragging a long length around the lake. The set up is simple, we have the main line attached to the weight with a second hook length off the weight with some bait on it. The hook length is of lesser strength. Often a 'hair rig' will be used. This is where the bait used is attached to the hook by a few millimetre of line. This encourages a fish to take the bait without feeling the hook. There are many ways of attaching the hook line to the ledger or main line such as a 'helicopter rig'. I suggest readers do a google search for 'helicopter rig', 'hair rig', 'knotless knot' and ledgering..... regards.... Rufty in Kent
What hooks the fish?
There are two main types of hook - the J hook and the circle hook. J hooks are used by directly driving the hook through the bait and into the fish with a strong upward tug. The hook can end up anywhere from the stomach of the fish to the jaw or be snagged on the exterior of the fish. Circle hooks are swallowed by the fish and are set by winding the line tight. The shape of the hook causes the point to swing around the jaw. Typically, 95% of the hook sets are in the fish's jaw. This allows the fish to be released relatively unharmed. Circle hooks are used very successfully in deep water fishing.
