  1. Thanks so much , I'll definitely try that
  2. I had to google a few of them names ... with the snowman do you use a large normal and a small pop up ? Thanks for the info too
  3. I had a look on bank tackle and they only seem to do the 22 ring swivel ... would that be okay , also am I allowed to put links off ebay to the ones I found ?
  4. I didnt know they did swivels that small unless you mean 2/0 , does the ring go on the hook or does it hold the bait stop ? and thanks again
  5. I've seen this done and looks interesting , Do you tie braid to the swivel ? also what size swivel would you use ? I ask about tying braid as I seen One that just squeezes the boilie over the swivel , Thanks Unflavoured ... Brilliant Idea and I just bought some fake maggots but they float ... do you have the bend inwards or outwards ? Thanks
  6. Thanks for that ... thats quite a clever way of doing it , again it looks like the mono is trapping the braid on the hook , Nice Tutorial
  7. Thanks Pooter , I always see Carp Anglers run it over steam from the kettle but I dont have a kettle lol ... can you make these at Home and then use them at the bank ? Also you said in your previous post ... " just thread through the eye and then whip it back down the shank and then half hitch the tag end back up the shank " I've gone over that sentence a few Times but cant quite understand it , do you mean you wrap down the shank ? and then I'm kinda stuck ... not sure what half hitch back up the shank means as I picture the Hair going upwards rather than downwards , Thanks again
  8. Thanks guys , I'll definitely try both them methods later at My desk Dental floss sounds nice and supple but wouldnt it smell of Mint ? ... or do you soak it first , sorry again for all the questions Also do you make your own " line aligner " or buy them ready made ? Really do appreciate the help
  9. Hi , I'm on a venue which has banned braid and only allows mono as the hook length , I generally use the knotless knot and incorporate the hair , But I'm finding that using mono is making the hair " stiffer " than I'd want , So ... is there a method to add a braid hair rig to a mono hook length ? I'm thinking mono straight to hook and then a tied braid hair rig but would like to know if theres any well known knots etc that does this well ? Many Thanks
