Will carp still feed in the rain?

Probaly going on a day session trip tomorrow to Gimmingham Lakes, but the weather is forecast for 15mph winds and lots of rain. Will carp still feed in that sort of weather?? Was probaly going too leger 2 rods with boilies.

 

Supposed too be highly stocked with carp averaging mid doubles.

Look for fish under the trees trying to keep dry

Only kidding!! yes mate they will still feed during the rain. Ive even seen carp taking dog biscuits off the surface during a heavy downpour.

if its a south westerly which I think it probably would be get down to the bank that the wind is blowing in to and you should find a few fish.

In my experience, fish rarely feed well during heavy rain. Immediately after it stops is a different story though and the following twenty minutes or so can be a major feeding spell.

Did a night there the other week. Brilliant, beat my pb while I was there. Going again next week sometime hopefully for a 2 nighter.

not been carping long, but best days have been those crappy windy days that keep raining and stopping!

Best when it rains all night and when you wake up the suns out and the surface is storming with carp
