phildalton1982 Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Ive made a few multi rigs out of kryston snake skin, semi stiff, needed to steam to get it straight. Normally i use the esp coated soft stuff, i hope it doesnt lose its straightness when in the water and start to go coily. Any thoughts? Trying to adapt the rig but its hard to improve it Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I use semi stiff for all my multi rigs,steams nice and straight and never had no problems with them Quote

snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I've had a few fish on the same rig,never had a problem with any coiling after a good steam. Quote
yonny Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Take a look at ESP Tungsten Loaded Phil, no steaming required, pulls straight, and stays straight. For fluro, check Rig Marole CAMH20, same, no steaming required. B.C. 1 Quote

snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I set my rigs so they fall flat,with the aid of 2 bits of rig foam.a nice slow drop on a straight hooklink the hook comes into contact weight wise as soon as the hook pricks the lip. I use N-Trap can't get on with snakeskin tho,as much as I try the coating splits as I tighten my knots B.C. 1 Quote

phildalton1982 Posted November 4, 2016 Author Report Posted November 4, 2016 Tight baitingI spray boilies over a 10m circle around it Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I normally do like a nice spread over my hookbait but my local been fishing slow the last few wks and the fish I had was over a few baits cattied over an overweight pop up Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I'll be honest,yes. Mainly in the spring when fishing the shallower water. I hatched a plan last year. Hemp,French maize,tares and a few chopped Krill boilies with a 10mm pop up fished over. Half a loaf fed up water then a cast out. Plan sorted...... NOT. After they finished there bread they just made there way down and spent the next half hr looking and finding my baits Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 I've still caught after I've been dived on. Quote
chillfactor Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Have you tried reasonably fast breakdown pellets BC Leaves you with plenty of attraction in your area but nothing for them to pick up . Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Except the hookbait ! They find it every time ! Quote
chillfactor Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 It's about giving them very little to home in on & prevent them staying on your spot the entire time, if you feed boilies they won't leave you alone that's for sure . Horseshoe can be a nightmare for them . Quote
phildalton1982 Posted November 4, 2016 Author Report Posted November 4, 2016 Maybe shrink tube has a place somewhere? When i get a strange bite im constantly thinking the pop ups been moved up the shank of the hook, bit of shrink tube would make it more secure possibly Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk B.C. 1 Quote
snowmanstevo Posted November 4, 2016 Report Posted November 4, 2016 Shrink tube on a multi rig ? Quote
