Guest Anonymous Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 when you steam the tube give it a slight in turn (look up withy pool rigs) same as these, before using run the rig over the back of your hand if the hook digs in your hand in theory it should do the same in a carp's lip hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrispayne Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 It might not be the tubing but the rest of the rig, are you using braid or mono? What hook etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
