  1. that just looks like a critically balanced pop up to me i may be wrong tho
  2. i will post some pics as soon as i can take some, never thought about it much before but there seems to be an infinite number of ways to 'lead up' on here
  3. i cant seem to move away from fox AP's and covert mugga's, went to my local purveyor of tackle the other day to get some korda wide gape for corn, and conversation went like this " mornin, what can i do you for?" me " pack of fox arma size 8 plz) bug ger done it again
  4. hi daniel, if you thread the line thru the eye then back again and leave a tail about 4" long, complete the palomar knot and pull down to the hook. now if you pinch the 'hair' along the shank of the hook and double it back till you have 1 1/2" loop, you should be able to put an overhand knot in and pull it down with a gated bait hook. i have done it numerous times and can now get the hair down to a reasonable size, so practice will make perfect. i will see if i can find a vid for you just on a side note, if you are using this to mount a mixer on the hook, consider using bait bands, easier and more effective imho
  5. happy after a good day :)

  6. two versions of the rig that have worked best for me this year both on coated braid (esp two tone15lb) to a mugga size 8, top rig is for double 14mm boilie on the hair and a string of soluble nash donuts, bottom is a hinged version for fishing a snowman or popped up corn over particles note the aggressive angle of the aligner and the way the hair comes off the bottom of the hook, gets em every time
