Gazza81 Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 Been using a id D rig but with 25lb amnesia for a few years now, had a few decent fish on it but been wondering if i might have better results using a fluorocarbon. What do you think? Also if fluorocarbon, which one as amnesia is cheap rather keep it that way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I found no advantages to fluorocarbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been using it this way for a while but just wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'invisibility' has little effect as it's on or close to the lakebed so casting little shadow anyway. Gazza81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know im not the only person that uses 25lb for everything 👍🏻 If that's the case then it's down to fish finding or moving onto the bait. Sounds really stupid, but some waters it takes a few days for the carp to move in to an area. 37 minutes ago, framey said: If it ain’t broke… You aren't doing anything wrong, you get takes and land fish, so it's working. Sir Pete Springate wrote about fishing taking 4 days to come onto the bait. Maybe they were there, got spooked, and didn't come back round for 4 days. I've fished waters where I had to leave the bait in position for 2days, and an Amnesia rig you can be pretty sure is tangle free, with or without PVA.
