## Caption

The fish you had last weekend is avoiding your rig right now, and it'll keep doing it for about a week

That's not a bank myth, it's been studied. Hooked carp steer clear of the presentation that caught them for five to seven days, some for a lot longer, and they learn it from each other as much as from being caught. It's why the second bite off a spot is often the harder one to get.

So after a fish, change what they encountered, not where you are. The spot is proven so stay on it. A fresh hookbait, a presentation they aren't used to, and rest it before you put another rig on there. You are giving them a situation they are not familiar with.

Save this for the next time a spot dies on you after a bite.
