How do i use 3 rods fro carp fishing

[surfcoaster]

The first time I tried this last year with 3 was on a river and it wasn't the easiest thing to do. A strong current really can really be a problem if it makes your baits tumble downstream. So - using a sinker capable of holding your bait on bottom in one position helps if you are on a river.

I also found that standing below the downstream end of the 3 rods helps you monitor all three rod tips at once for signs of a strike.

I never had 3 on at once - but did have 2. Now that was a crazy confusing adrenalin circus. Ended up losing both to bottom snags by trying to fight both an and off. Next time I'll pick one fish and beach it first - then take on the other if it's still possible.

I also think I will take my line (leader) strength up a notch or two this year when doing this.
