Re: $%!@ carp troubles
It sounds like the carp are bumping your line or ejecting the bait. When you chum sometimes your line gets caught up on their fins or body and it can make the line go slack. Carp can eject hooks very easily so you need a setup that sets the hook for you. Stick with the 20lb line but get all the slack out of it, add a 1-3 oz lead, 5" 20-50lb braid leader with a SHARP #6 hook and 3 kernels of corn. Be patient, if you get a run you'll know it and the fish will already be hooked so just pick up the rod and start reeling.
