  1. oooh the choices :s hmm like the sound of dave lanes i think . might have to get 2 books n tell the mrs we need to go on another holiday haha
  2. want a carp fishing book to read on my holidays and was wondering if any one had any recomendations. was thinking maybe chillys book or dave lane. saw ali hamidis book which looks good and abit more recent but i bet its one giant advert for korda.
  3. well i fished the chod fixed at about 2 ft up from the lead , straight onto the line last night and had 3 carp to 26lb and didnt lose any
  4. same here pal
  5. yeah i fish mine similar , i fish it straight onto the main line about 3 feet from the lead but up untill now its been fixed. my mate fishes it the same way and catches alot on it
  6. cheers guys , i have the same issue with the slack lines but i think they would make the bait sit more naturally on top of the weed . i think with the beads fixed it gives it maybe abit more of a shock to drive the hook in.
  7. just wondering what every ones preference is when fishing the chod rig , either fixed with the two beads close together or running with the beads far apart so it can settle were it wants? presentation wise i think the running version sounds better but i just think it gives the fish to much play , especially on a slack line
  8. i dont floss my baits on, i put a rig ring on the shank of the hook with a little bead to stop it coming off and then put a bait band through the ring and thread them to that , i cant be doing with flossing lol
  9. i agree with nige, in my opinion a choddys fished best as a single hookbait or as short as you can get it with a scattering of boilies , that way the fish is moving at least a few feet between baits n wont tell the diffrence when it comes to the hook bait . but if you really want that extra bait near your hook bait a 2/3 bait stringer wouldnt push the beads back on the cast .
  10. ooops lol 10 leads for £5
  11. i suppose it does get a bit pricy but its worth it to keep the fish safe init? i have my leads made by a mate now he does me 5 for £10. if you cant afford to keep buying leads (like me ) then try helicopter rigs or inline leads or running rigs
  12. i suppose they could work within a groundbait but i think most float
  13. How can u run out of fake mixers? As you dont lose them when you get a fish!!! i always find a way to lose things m8 im rubbish at keepin my tackle tidy. and they do sometimes coem off when playing fish
  14. i caught on a stick afew weeks ago on the surfacei ran out of fake mixers so i cut a stick down with me knife and took the bark of it and superglue it to the shank lol. and ive caught on a slug on the bottom
  15. why do we all worry so much about our bait then from what i am hearing the carp are eating machines that will hoover up anything and i mite have to try the beans
