  1. It's what you do when you see the price three quid a rig, ready tied of course some noddy will buy it
  2. The ones i used certainly take on flavour, caught more fish last year on fake baits than boilies. Always have mine glugging, put a pop up piece of maize on recently, tested it in the margin.....it sank over glugged maybe
  3. And i use the korda krimps no more fiddly knots
  4. Well thanks for keeping it quiet and not sharing doug good video nige
  5. Hello sirblanksalot Nice translation, I'm not sure how you guess that I can read Malay language, because I'm not from Malaysia. The pond actually is. Anyway, I dun understand the term statement ( mendaki turun menangani akhir) is new to me. For your rig, I will try out with smaller hook than the one I'm currently use like the one in my picture, but i have tried tying my hook with the pellet with string, the GT's saw it and still made a uturn. I will tried embedded the hook shank deeper into the pellet, and will also try to place the hook face inward to the pellet. tks I put 2 & 2 together and got 5 my apologies I'm sure between us we'll come up with a method to catch you a big GT

  7. Hello dan selamat datang, sila maafkan kesilapan dalam terjemahan. seperti yang ramai telah berkata mendaki turun menangani akhir anda boleh menukar kepada gigitan, kami juga melakukan cnr di uk menggunakan 5-7kg tali tambahan gelung kekili dan saiz 4-8 cangkuk nonbarb dengan beberapa ikan seberat 20 kg, mungkin yang gelekan tali tambahan gelung kekili mungkin lebih sesuai kerana mereka akan lebih kurus tetapi kuat. Untuk melampirkan pelet terapung anda, jika mereka keras potong alur yang dengan bilah gergaji besi kecil kemudian gam untuk shank cangkuk. http://www.anglersmail.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Floater2.jpg
  8. Joe, ever been newark way ? There's oakhill near norton disney, holds a good head of 20's but can get very busy. (had a couple of mid 20's from there) sapphire lakes , A1 pits ( 6 lakes to choose from) and of course cromwell, the home of the 30's & 40's
  9. These are the quik links i was referring too, just tried them in several brands of lead clip and the all fit snugly. large size i believe, the sleeve on the hooklength is a chod rig sleeve, slightly bigger bore than my A-T tube so fits over the link easier. but you could use another tail rubber for the same effect.
  10. Bin both swivels, like bez said, quik link in clip, then loop or rig ring on hook length, sorted. Or use a quick change swivel , loop on the hook length and a anti tangle sleeve to cover it.
  11. Is it anything like this first pic ? http://www.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=37603
  12. I use the same materials bought for my chod rigs, esp stiff & mouthtrap both in 15lb, i have used coated braids for the boom but prefer the mono, once it's steamed over the kettle it stays quite rigid. Stiffer mono can but a tad fiddly to tie the hair too, as i found making some rigs recently. To make life easier when you fold the line over at the end the hair goes on, slide a large or xl sinker on first, keeping it on both parts of the line, this will hold the loop in place whilst tying the hair on. When the hair is tied slide the sinker up on both parts of the line and over the knot, trim tag end and voila
  13. Rig 1, Just by adding a shot to the hair could turn it into a popup rig, random pic of the web but you get the idea, Rig 2, i'd change the rig ring for a piece of silicone near the bend, then either the shot on the hair or below the hook eye so it sits cocked. Rig 3, is the most versatile i feel, just floss a bait directly to the rig ring then alter the length so it sits tightish on the shank. (google claw pop up / images ) Why the combi on gravel? As ian has said it is virtually invisible and a coated braid may stand out a mile if your guessing at the colour of the bottom and get it wrong. HTH jay

  15. I plucked four from my rig box. 1st is suffix coated braid in 20lb, simple knotless knot , looks like a size 8 wide gape but will work with most hook patterns. 2nd is the suffix again , 2 inches stripped back tied to a rig ring with a uni knot, this simply goes down through the eye of the hook and the shrinktube holds it in place,making the hair adjustable in length. The rig ring will pull down to the eye during the fight and was strong enough to land me a mid 20. 3rd, is a blowback combi rig using 15lb fluro , and stripped suffix for the hair, size 6 widegape. 4th is a hinged stiff rig tied with 15lb mouthtrap. Obviously the first three are bottom rigs but could be made into wafter / popup rigs with slight adjustments. I'd use all of these on silty areas but if fishing on gravel would swap to the fluro combi.
  16. This is looking interesting . I take it thats a bottom bait ? yes mate , tie one, but only if you advocate using fake baits psss have you seen those maggot balls, wowsers
  17. Too fiddly for my sausage fingers, i've just tried it I've tried similar using shrinktube which works ok, even leaving the coating on some braids works but fiddly tying the hair, how about this for the less dexterous ?

  19. Chods don't work......really ..ask stoogi
  20. Anyone tried their local health centre. I walked in and asked for some new needles/syringes and they gave me a box of 10 Did'nt mention they were for fishing though
  21. I use 20lb ESP stiff bristle on occasions. I've tried this knot because i could'nt tie the knotless on smaller hooks (8-10's)because of the eye size, still struggled because i'm all thumbs so seeking a simpler solution i came up with this.. Hth jay
