Cheers guys

good thinking Are they ment to slide that freely?
-
Hey guys, Im using a hinge rig, helicopter style...Im using 30lb Fluoro, and the beads are sliding very easily even gravity slides them down. What can I do ?
-
Ok then they can maybe get moved to a presentaion stick or something ?
-
Yeah I spent most of last night trying a 15mmbb and 15mm pop. Just trimming away etc, the bait still looks a bit gig for my liking, so might try a cork insert. Who will be the best person/people to have a look at my rig pictures to make sure they are ok so otheres can learn from ??? As I coulnt find a picture of what I was trying to do
-
Wicked thanks for your patience in this, I know its been done to death lol. Im pretty clear now with what I want to achieve now. Thankyou Any disadvantages of using it with a KD
-
so both baits are on the bottom????
-
Sorry to start on this again guys. can anyone point me in the direction of what a balanced snowman should look like?? I have mine at the min so the shank of the kook if floating with baits above it, and the hook is sitting on its point near enough ??? Cheers guys
-
well I was practicing using some 12lb mono for both ends and altho it tied thanks to the above video. It looked messy and i never put a knot out unless it looks fine enough to be served as a main dish. I used 30lb fluoro to 12lb mono and it looks very neat and tidy, (I would eat it ) So i think my mistake was using the same diameter line????
-
Hiya guys, Im going to be fishing, fluoro from mainline onto hooklink. Now ive been told the best way to attach the mono to fluoro is to use the albright knot... Can i do it for the life of me!!!! So what are my other options
-
Maths aside, you have been my personel myth buster today. many thanks for clearing that up, i Hop this thread and your answer helps a few more people that was struggling with it
-
I think I get you... So they are still classed as a bottom bait?? So would a boilie with a peice of artificial corn be something along the lines of a balanced bait ?
-
Hmm and I was on the uderstanding that you still use putty/shot to balance the critically balanced baits hence the name.....Can you see my confusion
-
Hi guys, Are the above the same or different presentations Im a little confused in the difference
-
Yeah I suppose unless you need to come up all that way, whats the point. Might sound silly but how can you gain a rough indication of depth of weed, if your 20 or so metres out???
-
Hi guys I bet the more experienced guys on here get bored to tears with the word CHOD when it pops up, but anyway here I go What is the main difference between a normal pop up rig and a chod, im confused as why you would fish one and not the other and vice versa. If you was fishing very deep silt then fair enough chod all the way. Is the main difference the distance you can fish off the bottom ?? Chees guys
-
Cheers Im going to resaerch some knots
-
Yeah I saw that, but how do you connect it. Sorry I know im being totally dumb. But all I have ever done is use one peice of braid for hair and hooklength :S (if that makes any sense at all.)
-
Im going to give it a go on one rod next week me thinks never tried it. Someone mentioned that it is not good to use as a hair. How do you connect different material to the hookling to form a hair ?
-
Thanks for the replies guys. What are the disadvantages with fishing with it. I am getting the impression that when the goings tough, switch to mono hooklink for more bites. So why not fish with it all the time if it works ?
-
Hiya guys, When do you use normal fishing line as hooklength, instead of braid etc? (Thats if you do lol)
