Hi guys, If you have a problem or need any advice or repairs to your bait boats or associated equipment then run it by me I may be able to help, Cheers Pete.
As Nige says use a PVA bag or a stick mix or put some foam on the hook to allow it to slowly fall into place, If you put enough free offerings around the hook link the fish will soon clear the weed to get to the bait.
Cheaper still is to get some clear plastic re sealable plastick bags or envelopes and coil them up inside.
You can then use a black marker pen to write on them, length, breaking strain and hook size etc.
