Hi Everyone I came across the above rig at a boot sale , and thought it might be worth a go I've never used a flurocarbon hooklink , I'm particularly wondering how abrasion resistant it would be around snags ? . Ta . đ

Are you allowed a boat JH ? , only I'm thinking drifting quietly along maybe putting out a carpet of floaters ahead of you ? . đ

Hello Teo In addition to the other advice , all of which I wholeheartedly agree with , I would wander around and around stalking with mixers / floating pellets hoping to see a Carp or 2 and look to select the biggest . đ

Hello MS , welcome to the forum . I'm surprised no one has answered your question , perhaps you could help , Nick , as a Shimano man ? . đ

Hello Mufty I know you said live snails , but what about Dynamit Baits Hemp and Snails Specimen ? ; the video on their website shows a snail hair rigged with a plastic corn topper . đ

My Wife took pain killers for 9 years for her back , 13 different physios. didn't help , but 4 visits to an Osteopath 5 years ago and has never needed another tablet since - and no pain . đ

How's your back Chill. ? , have the muscles relaxed , or are they still locked up ? . Presumably it was all that long casting and long distance baiting that did it ? . There's a lot to be said for being rubbish at casting , and sticking to the margins ! . đ

Can you tell us more please Buzz. ? . If I remember correctly ! my Mum was on tramadol before she had a hip operation . đ

While you're putting the insulation in , Highy , how much will the jacuzzi weigh when it's filled with water ? . đ

You're a clever little devil aren't you , Highy . I like the look of that jacuzzi to relax in after a stressful days' fishing . đ

Cheers , Yonny . đ

Did you try any floaters , trout pellets , mixers etc ? . If you did Capadventurer I don't know what more you could have done , and as you say you did enjoy the sun ! . đ

Hello Yonny Are you still " Tuffing it out " ? . It wasn't until I read one of Smufters' posts that I learnt about Berkley Connect CM90 and CM70 - how do you rate these lines as a snag line please ? . Ta . đ

Cheers , Mufty . đ

As I understand it , a rough rule of thumb is a 1 lb Test curve rod is used to cast a total of 1oz in weight ( which is roughly 30g ) - the 10-30g would be the recommended casting range of your little spinning rod I believe . Personally I would go for a 1 1/2 lb test curve as Nick advises , and then maybe later move on to the stronger rods the others have recommended , the 1 1/2 lb would then be used for floater fishing . đ
-
Can you tell us what your " third hand rod " is please - hopefully it still has a transfer on it which tells you what it is , then hopefully we can work out what test curve it is . đ

Just don't leave Elwood asleep in his car seat while you have a little mouch around the lake if the sun suddenly comes out ! . âšī¸

Well if Nige is personally autographing the Nash products that's bound to put the price up . đ
