i might try some of the G-line nice diameter

Double strength is good but but change your hooklink on every fish once you have had a fish on it the next one always snaps the hooklink.

I use double pop up sweetcorn on a zig and have had some success on it although it is more affective with a spod mix over the top.

hi could anyone tell me how far from the lead the flying back lead should be, as I noticed on my rig that the back lead doesn't move back that far I am guessing it is something to do with the distance between the lead and backlead

this has probably been mentioned before but was wondering what everyones ideal hook length is and why? I use mainly 12 to 14 inch hook lengths as I think that if the carp are testing the bait they will feel the resistance of the lead much quicker on a shorter length than a longer one, how ever I use smaller if I am using a method feeder. Where as my mate uses shorter rigs 3 - 5 inches and if going off fish on the bank I am way ahead!

yes that is one flaw in the way I fish

I just use a pair of scissors and tie a new rig on

thanks for the info will try a bit of putty, I used the leadcore cause I had clips which would release the lead if it got stuck, also the beads which I used for the chod on leadcore gave a bit more friction than what they did on mono, and as for fashion no I don't use it because of 'fashion' I use it because it has gave me the best results with popups if it didn't I wouldn't be using it!

I only use leadcore if I am fishing the chod, if anyone could tell me how to make the Chod with out leadcore I would happily get rid of it

Has anyone used the above have bought some today to make some hook lengths up, what do people think of it?

maybe the same one but just a bit bloated lol with the amount of boilies in there!

I know mate to be honest at the time didn't think much of it have only recently took up fishing again after 10 years out, wish I had now though got it out of the specimen pool at weston lawns nr coventry

I was using king prawns last week on a anti eject rig had a 5 pound perch had a few bream no carp on the prawns though!
