  1. i no this is getting boring now about all the zigs but i no how they work and i have used them in the summer and caught loads but is any one currently or has fished them through the winter ,to find the fish in mid water where they might be holding up? if so any tips and advice. thanks shaun
  2. well i used to have my hairs about 5 mm off the bend of the hook, but after watchin the korda under water vids its amaizing how many times a carp pics up the bait witth out gettin the hook in its mouth so now i have shortend my hair to about 1-2 mm and its worked better for me.
  3. chod rigs hav hook lengths of usually 3 inches that are fixed between two beads, and helipcopter hooklengths a usually run up and down the line from the lead up to a bead that stops it moving.
  4. its a club water and people who are not a memeber whoare on the water get bent over. and its a one rod only water
  5. me too but what would be the advantages in differtent situations using the long shank
  6. the lake im goin to fish is 11 acres 3 and a half feet maximum in depth and i can only use one rod on this water, what would u lot do? either zig rig , maggot ball, single roving hook baits small pva bags, dinamite lol ?
  7. why is it that frank warwhik only evr uses long shank for pop ups and wide gape for bottom baits can i ask? does any one use both these hook for different situations.
  8. elo is there any body out there!
  9. ive herd that zigs in winter are a fantastic way forward what do you think?
  10. has any one used esp gost stiff link i was palying with my m8s and it looked so ugly i thorght it was a tow rope! it looks so thick and ugly i dont no whether to try it? any one got any suggestions or comments on it? any help wud be very great ful lads! cheerz
  11. no worries m8 and this is what the forums for, any questions ask!
  12. ive not used that in ages i think its a lighter colouer than the coating and its braid i think m8, dont go word for word on that i ent used it in ages.
  13. may be the brown is different but the green one is defonatly white.
  14. well ive got the green one and its white! decpetive packagine gets me all the time lol
  15. when u strip it its white braid in side!
  16. its got awhite inner so if ur over gravel strip it back all of it! but id go for brown as if ur on weed it will blend in and onto silt
  17. i have done and find mono better for fish playin and for castin
  18. id rather have the fish see it and avoid it than not see it and be spooked by it! hope that helps it what i believe in all my fishiing.
  19. just a inch to make a hinge rig i match the colour to the lake bed
  20. i love the stealth skin but the only problem i have found with it , is that the outer coating peels of on its own from reeling in and pulling it over the bottom. but stealth skin is very very good
  21. just checked em there fine. but i saw the line snap in between the tipe and the lead so the tip wasnt in contact withe the part that broke.
  22. but i saw the line snap in the middle from my tip to the lead it never sanpped by the tip ring plus ive had the rods for years ans never had any other problems ive jsut respooled mt reels with esp.
  23. yer cuz i saw the line break in the middle as soon as i lifted the rod. and the line was still on the swivvel just not the tubing and the lead clip plus lead.
  24. i actually wa thinkin of that but the lake gets drained 2 a year and ive seen the bottom theres nuthin there, so i think i just wont be buying kryston again and go bk to my good old trusted esp.although it is like rope but other than that i carnt fault it.
  25. no mate this lake is tiny like less than an acre (acording to the board on the fishsery) this lake is perfectly smooth bottmed and i dragged the marker over it anough times, what knot do u use with the line cuz i been using the polarmor knot and im not happy with it? what strain have u got it in?
