Hi,
It can be, we usually just take minimal gear. A rod, net, bait and seat is all you need.
Feed the margins as they come very close in.

If you intend to fish 2 rods with ledgered baits,then a "normal carp style" set up will be fine(just turn the volume to a sensible level) if however you are fishing one rod in the margins with pellet,meat or corn then my advice would be to only fish one rod as this is generally the most productive method and double hookups can be a real problem,method feeder works well at this venue and can be fished on 2 rods and buzzer set up and less likely to cause you problems.

Depends how your gonna fish it.
For most of my sessions,half a kilo of pellets for loose feed and 2 300g tins of meat(hookbait only) alternatively the same of pellets with 2 lg tins of corn for hookers and feed.
I find this ample for a pleasure session but I do tend to get bored after a constant stream of carp,plus if you feed too much your swim can end up like a washing machine and foul hooked fish can become a problem.
