I never use an inline lead straight out of the packet.

📳 Get in touch for a one-on-one tuition session with me by video call.

The problem with standard inline leads is that the carp can use the weight of the lead to throw the rig. On certain waters, it’s not an issue and you can catch plenty of carp. But when you go to a new water, with more pressured fish, or fewer carp, a standard inline lead setup can let you down. There are several ways to transform a standard inline lead. You can either convert it to a pure running rig, or there are options to create a trick setup that I’ve been using to fool carp for many years!
