Hope its helps, it doesnt say much about the bottem but just Woundered if it is of any interest.

its a hard water at this time of year but does have very big carp

 

the best option if you have only one day is to stay mobile and try to find the fish and cast a small pva bag of pellets or chop boilies at any showing fish

 

i have heard that the carp do take zigs but i have never caught one on a zig

yes it is a water better suited to session fishing and a boilie approach works well

 

there are lots of fish over 20lb and so if you get one you have a good chance of it being a new pb

 

good luck
