Marker & Feature Finding

Before any bait goes in, it pays to know what the bottom and the depth are like in your swim. A marker float and a feature finding lead help you locate bars, weed edges and firm spots. Distance sticks let you transfer that distance from one rod to the next. In this group you will find the tools for feature finding and measuring range.

How to find features in a carp swim

Feature finding is usually done with a dedicated marker rod and braided line, which transmits every change on the bottom to your hand. The feature finding lead is dragged slowly across the bottom: a smooth, easy pull means firm ground, a juddering feel means gravel or mussels, and a soft, heavy resistance points to silt or weed.

The marker float rises from the lead to the surface, showing you the depth and marking the spot you want to bait and cast to. You find the depth by letting the float up to the surface in equal lengths of line and counting them.

Distance sticks are two pegs pushed into the ground that you wrap your line around. Once you know the distance to the marker float in wraps, you can measure the same length onto every rod and put the line in the line clip. That way your rig and bait land in the same place, even in the dark.
