    Had loads on Brazils over the years fished as singles and over bait. They’re just another hookbait (albeit an exceptional one) any rig that presents appropriately will do. I’ve never added to their buoyancy or counterbalanced them. Occasionally, I’ll tip with corn but not necessary. Just shave and trim to desired shape and size😎

    I've been thinking about using some nuts this year, I think everyone seems to go for tigers, so I think peanuts might be a good alternative, and fenugreek seems to pop up quite often so it will be something different to try anyway cheers

    Pretty much mate. Add a load in for the soak and leave until they swell. Then add a load more and boil. They go mental for them.

    Fenugreek peanuts 👌 I agree. As Nick said, some are naturally buoyant so make sure to check the rig in the margin to see how it's sitting.

    I’ve used Brazil’s and found them quite light in weight and also found little 10mm size bits better than a whole nut tbh another point for you cut a fresh nut you get an oily juice not with an old nut fresher the better Most rigs will work with a Brazil tbh just lengthen the hair slightly and use a pva bag or tape to stop a tangle as they are quite light hope this is some help

    I have seen tigers blow. If you are going with a Brazil, find the floating ones, and use a 360 rig (shrink tube over the eye), or stick with the D-rig. The D rig can be used with buoyant or sinking baits😉

    I'd personally use peanuts. If the carp get on them, they can be devastating.

    Can’t see tigers blowing especially if you are the only one using them drill through the centre of the Brazil lengthways and add a bit of brown zig foam or cork to pop it up fish it as a low pop up or wafter I believe Brazil’s are a little buoyant anyway. will need to play about with the amount of foam

    Well I'm just about to pop to my mums for the last time for a while, we have been safe and locked down since before Christmas so she's been our care bubble of one, but I have to go back to work, that means sadly as I can't trust my colleagues to be as vigilant as myself, I just can't risk it after Monday 😭 Let's get this over with then maybe we could discuss it all at a social once its safe 👍
