In poor vis I sit in the kayak.  The carps will swim right up to you if you are quiet.  A little cheap fish food flake MAY help  O:).  They are using pole spears.  Nothing to service realy like a spear gun and more of a challenge.  Pluss it's hard to shoot yourself in the foot.... my number one reason for choosing them over a triggered spear gun.

I catch carp all the time but throw em back because I don't eat em.  Great fighting fish.
