Avoiding snags while bottom fishing?

[Giuga10]

Snags are common when bottom fishing for Carp. Try to locate rocky areas and avoid them.

I've never gotten snagged while using a hair rig, might be because there is no direct weight or force on the hook itself so it's less likely to jam into a rock etc..


If you don't already use a hair rig give it a shot, it might help.

Also try a bolt rig, that's the weighting system I use for carp fishing and it works amazing, and it sets the hook for you, I lose a lot less Carp with this rig.
