Stalking or static?
chillfactor and one other reacted to jh92 for a topic
Putting the bait basically on the fishes nose is stalking for me. find a fish on the surface, cast a bit of bread flake floater or w/e just past the fish then retrieve it back slowly until in range of the fish then hopefully it will nail it lol.2 points -
You'd struggle big time imo mate, not good for distance. I once did a France trip with 30 odd kg and my spot was 100+. Baited with the stick all week, absolutely destroyed me. I pulled my shoulder, blistered my hands, all sorts😫 I remember the shoulder got better weeks and weeks later and just as I thought it was sorted I climbed a tree on a local pit and pulled it again lol.2 points

You stalk your prey if you can't see your prey how can you stalk it ? Its all fishing and as long your enjoying what you do then it doesn't really matter1 point

Stalking or static?
kevtaylor reacted to chillfactor for a topic
I will prevent other fish taking my bait when I'm stalking ,so not to ruin any chance of the one I want , if I can't do that , then I'm not stalking . Like I said in my earlier post I have to be able to see the fish for me to call it stalking. But that's just me everyone's different. 😉1 point -
ill get me self one of these

The guys that own the local tackle shop built a propane powered cannon, and it fired an 18L pail of groundbait 100 yds in just a few shots. As far as I know, they only used it once though.1 point

I wouldn't mind seeing a decent device for applying boilies at 120+ yards without dumping them in a tight clump1 point -

dayvid reacted to chillfactor for a topic
Personally.... if I say I've stalked a fish, the first criteria has to be that you've spotted it & singled it out for capture. And actually see it take your bait. If you apply it to other hunting field's there is a difference between a stalker & a trapper1 point -
I had the same feelings about 5 years ago resulted in me selling up and it was the worst thing ive ever done about 6 months after selling alls I could think about was getting back out on the bank so I had to go out and buy all my stuff again cost me a hell of a lot more than I sold my stuff for if you have those feelings have a few months away and im sure your love of fishing will return1 point

Long distance casting
salokcinnodrog reacted to chillfactor for a topic
The helicopter lead set up will travel the furthest & is pretty bullet proof for presentation so might be worth a look for you . But like Nick mentions stopping that line & kicking it all out just before it hits the water & feeling the lead down, should see a pendant set up fishing fine no matter what range . Try reeling in slower & smoother as it could be just tangling on the way in if the rods bouncing around a lot .1 point -
If its coming via a courier thats a lot of trust in the courier , if your collecting then shouldn't be an issue . Looking to do a French trip in a few years can't wait .1 point

Agree, BAF do really good gear. I also agree that it's a labour of love. Once you've factored in the cost of your time it's not that much cheaper than some of the decent off-the-shelf baits nowadays imo.1 point
