    I've never made them at home. Always on the bank.

    8 league wins on the bounce They have come in to form at the right time of the season, but there are still a few twists left in the season. It'd be nice to see Liverpool nick it from City on the last game of the season

    Let's hope that Brendan Rodgers has a few lessons in giving interviews if Liverpool continue their march to the end of the season. He looked like a complete idiot today with the gibberish he was coming out with

    The fact that it is a rescue saves you from ridicule

    Sorry to hear that Andy

    You have posted four alternative ways, but have not shown any evidence that any of them are superior to a PVA nugget. In fact, Milky's post above has shown one of them to be far inferior if the lead were to land the wrong way up (Which is a 50/50 chance every cast).

    I would have ended up doing the same thing. Would have moaned and grumbled, said 'I'm not retying them', then sat and brooded and retied them all. And that's the exact reason why I would have ended up retying them.

    Me too

    I couldn't cast out without a bait stop. I'd be sitting there continually wondering if I've got bait on the end of my rig or if it's come off. There's just no way I could feel confident

    I often use plastic bait, but I've never used it exclusively. It's only ever used to tip off a boilie. I've not actually glugged a plastic bait (Yet) but I do use flavoured ones. Over the last 12-18 months, I'd say that Korda IB flavoured have produced the best results.

    So their still on the naturals muft ? Natural coconut liver enzyme liquid All soaked in to a bit of bread

    Hello mate and welcome. I nearly always use a rig ring with a D rig.
  13. dalthegooner
    Drill a hole in them and put in a bit of cork stick. You can then tie it on to a chod rig, or hinged stiff rig, with some floss.

    PVA nugget. It's irrelevant what you use for the hair then. I use one every time. I know that the hair is never tangled and I have a good presentation.

    Buy some Fox lead clips. They have a pin that you use to make it semi fixed, rather than relying on the swivel to 'click' like Korda. The Fox clips are much better than the Korda and allow the quick change. The Korda clips don't touch the Fox ones IMHO. They're more interested in dumping tons of lead on the lake bed instead
  16. dalthegooner
    That's what I do. And using the Fox lead clips it takes seconds to change from running rig to semi fixed. Dal , just changed it for you mate Oops. :oops: Thanks Tim :oops: I'm watching the Olympics as I type so am not paying full attention (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it )

    I can't hep you with the water either. But, like our Newmarket, I can offer a warm welcome to the Asylum

    I use mouth trap and a rig ring. Tie the bait on with dental floss.
  20. dalthegooner
    I'd be using Korda Super Natural for the boom. It's much more supple than the N-Trap and will lay more naturally on top of the weed. I'd then have either a D and a rig ring on the back of the hook, or a micro rig ring and a hook bead on the stiff section.
  21. dalthegooner
    Nice idea, but without using a Polaroid lens those pictures don't give a true representation because of the glare on the water.
  22. dalthegooner
    Hello mate and welcome to the nuthouse. Sorry, can't help on Syndicates, not from you neck of the woods.
  23. dalthegooner
    Looks like a nice little fishery.
  24. dalthegooner
    I still use them as well.

    Rigs

    dalthegooner replied to mickey58's topic in UK Rig Tying

    I think that it is a great rig. I have confidence that it presents itself well, and confidence that it will reset well when getting done by a carp (Which, after watching the underwater DVD's, happens loads). I tie it with Korda IQ2 and Korda Supernatural.
