  1. i still cant work out though , the advantages of the dental floss set up over a hair rig ?

     

    One of the reasons for tying on bait is; if, when using a pop-up, you pierce the bait and mount it on a hair there is a chance it will lose its buoyancy. By tying on the bait you overcome this and the pop-up will stay buoyant for a far greater length of time.

  2. i would only use it if there were no nusuciane (spelling) fish around or else you could be getting 1 bleeps all day long

     

     

    tight lines

     

    Is that the Maggot Clips or the Medusa or maggot presentation?

     

     

    I can see it comming :wink:

  3. When did you tie that Zander?

     

    The leadcore is always setup in my box along with all of my other leadcore leaders and tubing ect, I tied the rig itself the night i posted the pic of that weired contraption from the screaming delkim website :)

     

     

    Its just that I seem to remember reading in another thread a post of yours were you state that you don't use leadcore anymore and only use an IQ leader or fish straight through with your main line? Yet here you say that its always set up in your box along with all your other leadcore leaders :?

     

    I dont use leadcore anymore i still have loads of leaders in my box just in case i need to try somthing different or my new aproach stops working :lol: i like to keep my options open and dont see the point in binning somthing because i am not using it at the min :wink::lol::lol::lol:

     

     

    Sorry Zander I must have mis read your post :oops:

    I thought the reason you said you stopped using it was for the fish safety aspect not for your catch rate :?

  5. Just thinking if adding a loop of say 1inch of 1/2lb mono between the clip and lead would aid in shedding the lead if snagged or line break?

    It could be covered in silicone tube to aid anti tangle.

    Any feedback would be appriciated before taking idea to the water incase ive missed any drawbacks.

    It could be just a stupid idea!!!!
