        Which hydro would you use in the summer for 6 to 10lb carp? Black or purple or maybe another make?

              I’d personally go for purple Hydro, or a similar hollow (Preston 17h etc)

                  Red hydro, set soft though a full top kit for carp between 6lb – 10lb in summer.

                      Steve Maher black hollow elastic, similar to hydro without the liquid at £8 well worth it. or others are doing it for around £3.50 for 3mtres not sure of the quality until I test it out, also the same in purple and red lol, I like the black and it is very forgiving however on some fisheries in the heat of summer the carp go a bit and can take forever to land so a step up to purple or red is in order, if on a shedful it’s worth stepping up a grade.

                                being part of team hydro,i am lucky enough to have HYDRO ELASTIC in all my top kits for carp, and i can say that i would always use BLACK in open water with a pull bung, where as if next to stags or margin fishing it would be RED , step down on size of fish or in the winter to WHITE open water and GREY in margins BLACK next to snags,

                                hope you find this helpfull ,

                                  depends how your catching if its down the edge id use purple hydro/ green dual core. if im fishing long on the deck id use somat like a black hydro or purple dual core and if im fishing shallow id use grey hydro or grey dual core so the fish can move straight out the swim. id use pullas with both black and grey but not purple.

                                      Preston 15H set with a pulla or preton 17H through a standard power kit.
