Guest keenook Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 mullberry and squid boilies, 8 inch rig, inline lead. Â I that case CB1 I have no idea If fishing longer rigs over mass particle then yes, but your set up sounds fine to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy1 Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 ive scaled all my terminal down to the min, because of the heavy silt, but ive fished this drennan braid on rivers for years with no probs, i was thinking eels?

Guest keenook Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 What type of takes are you getting on these bite offs??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy1 Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 single bleeps, small bobbin movement, like bream. not the usual bouncing like eels! do when hooked in rivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest keenook Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 CB1, sorry I can't help! I've been a Carp angler for over 25 years and only had one bite off ever! Why not start another thread on bite off''s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
