teamtrout 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2015 Has anybody used one of these for carp? I was thinking about tying some, but they appeared to me that they would float. I mean, I can't see any bulk on the shank that wrapping lead would have caused. From my experience... corn sinks, so I'm trying to see how this would work. I guess carp would probably hit it regardless... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
