glyn78 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 found some leads which have holes through the centre how do i set these up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splitter Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Hi mate, these are inline leads. They should have a plastic sleeve through the middle and you simply thread your mainline through and then tie on a swivel. Tie your hooklink onto the other end of the swivel, which should pull snugly into the plastic sleeve through the lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glyn78 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 confused any diagrams does the mainline go through twice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasticmrfox Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 no mate, it only goes through once, i dont have any diagram's but if you bear with me i'll draw one up on paint and post it up for you, It's called a bolt rig, and is usually a self hooking rig... diagram to follow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glyn78 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 cheers mr fox !!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasticmrfox Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 ok, it's a bit rough as i just threw it together on paint, i'll try to explain it as well to help you understand... the mainline goes through the tube in the lead, then through a small piece of rubber tubing that is attached to a tulip bead, this presses over the swivel to hold it in place, the swivel is tied to the mainline and your hook-link.. Theory is, as the fish pick's up the bait, the lead move's up off the bottom, if the fish tries to blow the bait out, the lead drop's and pulls the hook into the bottom lip... if the fish picks up the bait and move's away, the lead causes resistance on the line which pull's the hook into the corner of the mouth as it move's away. don't use anything other than the tulip bead to hold the lead in place though, if the like break's the tulip bead is easily removed from the swivel as the fish tries to shake it off, so it's left only pulling the hook-link, if you use a lead shot or something similar (or you pass the line through the lead twice) it will make the lead a lot harder to come off, so the fish end's up dragging this around and could snag up, possibly causing the fish to die... hope this help's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Does this come to any use? https://forum.carp.com/carp-forum/viewtopic.php?t=22185 Also while in that section of the forum, I believe that there is a lead set-up thread with a few other safe set-ups available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
