  1. I use rig rings mate to get a good strength knot (Grinner)
  2. I use it as well on 1 rod still early days for me aswell but it does stretch like mad, you will defo have to make a combi rig as you cant tie hair. It needs some lead putty rubbing on it aswell as it is very (boyuant spelling?) also dont wet the knot as ur tighting down as is makes it difficult for the knot to form due to shrinking when wet.
  3. If i was to use say a small amount of trigga attached to swivel on the other end tied with water knot to sink link this may hold the trigga down a bit more just a thought as i heard you cannot tie it using hair method. Would a water knot be the best not to join to hooklinks?
  4. Simple mate soak it for 5 mins in a bucket of water before you cast then once on the spot no shrinking takes place.
  5. You see on my water the fish dont take well to pop ups or anything poped up like snowman prestentations. So when i turned them around the baits sort of laid side by side still givin critical balance.
  6. Havin trouble here with trying to balance the baits, does it have to be bottom bait nearest the hook and pop up on the other end? Also when triming down my doesnt look like a snowman as the bottom bait is smaller. Should the baits be laid side by side on the bottom or slightly poped up? Any help would be greatly appreciated
  7. Splice the leadcore then i use a grinner knot splicing is very strong much stronger than any knot.
  8. Say wot you see and wot you see say it LMAO
  9. Was wondering if anyone could explain how you critically balance baits and wot sort of rig to use with such a balanced hook bait. You see i have only ever used botom baits and would like to use pop ups a bit more. Any help would be greatly appriciated. May thanks Dan
  10. do u think it would work if i joined both swivels by quick link but then this would be part of my main line would it hold? If not any 1 no any good knots to tie a hooklength to quick link
