  1. Rigs you are using now?

    These are some made up bottom bait rigs, I will also use the snake-bite for my pop up baits, but I used all them and have none made up, I will also put a bit of tubing on the snap swivel and a bit of fine shrink tube on the hook eye going an inch or so up the line, just to try and give a bit of cushion.

    I'd also tip my hat to Danny Fairbass, I know some scoff at the whole Korda marketing regime (lol)
    But the blokes done more to bring carp fishing to the main stream than most and with all the detractors and come lately environmentalists, trying to put themselves forward as the wild life police, we need the Dannies and Alieis of Korda, annoying as that sarf London accent is! Also, they remind me of them characters in the fast show, Simon and Lindsey.

  6. pre filling pva bags

    in UK Rig Tying

    Posted

    I do my bags like that Jay and have never had a problem with stress on the bag but in saying that I rarely cast over 50/60 yards so giving it the big one may cause problems ....

     

    Do any of you put crumb/groundbait in the 1st half inch of the bag,then top up with micro pellet ?

    I've done it like this for a few years now and like the fact that the hook point is going into a soft area...... And white crumb stands out very visually on darker bottoms...... Proberbly doesn't make much difference but it gives me confidence and that's half the job in fishing :D

     

    I always use a bit of crumb in my PVA bags, that and a bit of PVA liquid, helps fill up any air pockets.
