Now as some of you know i have a rig tying business and over the last few years i've tied 1000s of chod rigs. The best hooks by far for me personally and for my business have been korda choddys and nash chod twister i never get them back or any compaints. I am going to have a play this year with the Nash gapers as i like the wide gape on them and they look a nice tough hook.

Not to bad mate got a couple of waters to play with this year. Like you i wouldn't fish the mere now , i know a few lads on it and none of them have had anything near to a 30 but it is a nice water.
-
Well if its the mere it isn't a syndicate its a club water open to anyone.
-
Fox ssc was my go to hook for ages i very rarely lost a fish on them. As for the kranks i think they are to flexible and i have no faith in them whatsoever, to me its a weak pattern and i dont fish to lose one i've hooked.

What can i say a short story easily read in two or three hours but absolutely fantastic discriptive writing. A tale of a man and a fish and a young boy its an insight into a different life and the respect a man can have for his quarry.

Im sure it is now a mega private syndicate with next to no chance of joining. What i will say is get permission to walk around waters when looking around or you might find yourself not getting an invite back. Keith who runs it is not looking for any new members at present, i know i have a mate on there and i cant get on. Sob sob

When using a small bait I use a big hook and when using a big bait a bigger hook lol.

Good chance of a few runs late april?

I think the tee lake fish went after the cold winter couple years back, never saw it the following spring.

Good memory. It opened my eyes too. Sadly many fisheries have restrictions on hook size. It was in Freespool mag and yes i have a saying that for small carp use a big hook, for bigger carp use an even bigger hook. I use size 2s for barbel fishing so a hook that size aint no problem for a carp.
-
Now i see what you are saying Kev but to suck in something large enough to stick both sides of my gob would be almost impossible with out it hitting the outside of my lips etc on the way in. The old Frank warwick anchor rig comes to mind and yes i have used that to catch a few. I just dont believe from the best part of 30 years carping that any super efficient rig is out there.
-
As far as i'm concerned the palm and thumb tests are the biggest load of you know what in carp fishing. Utter and total gash like its the same as a carps gob sucking and blowing underwater.

Sandhust because the poxy place owes a big fish

Having watched the scaley beasts get away with it countless times in the margins i dont believe any rig has a more than 20% sucess rate. I dont let it worry me any more just plod along catching a few here and there.
