natty Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 I am going to use 35lb quicksilver to fish for some carp and have the abrasion resistance to handle cats. Do you think that the quicksilver will spook the fish, as it looks quite big and also the colour? Quote
salokcinnodrog Posted March 11, 2006 Report Posted March 11, 2006 I used to use it years ago as a Shockleader and never had any problems with it. It just looks like a pale weed stem in the water as long as it is not fished too tight. One thing I would say though is the majority of the time I fish with very slack lines. Another thing I would cover it up with tubing near the Lead, as I have heard that it can get underneath scales and ping them off. Quote
evans Posted March 13, 2006 Report Posted March 13, 2006 my mate has accidentally caught carp on it when cat fishing they went up to about about 19lb Quote

Have you seen the korda dvd where they test it? it looks a funny colour out of water but blends in nicely under water:) Quote
natty Posted March 17, 2006 Author Report Posted March 17, 2006 Do you think it will damage a carp's mouth? Quote
