Episode 81: December Carp Fishing Session, UK. Back Of The Landing Net

[Nextlevelcarpfishing]

just a tip on the first rig there mate, because you are using a snowman rig, it is a very light bait in the water, i notice you have the piece of silicone to hold the bait nearer the point of the hook, with snowmans, you dont need to do this, the rule is : if you have a light bait, have it coming off the hook near to the eye, this makes the eye light and the point heavy, if you have a heavy bait, have it coming off nearer the point, this makes the point heavy and gives better hook holds.

[spaggage08]

@Nextlevelcarpfishing yeah thanks mate, if i was using say a 12mm pop up on the to of the snowman then i wouldn't of put the tube on the hook. i was using a minipop (5mm) which was intended just as a visual thing, the bait- although very slightly lighter, was no where near neural buoyancy balanced, was still effective with this rig (as you saw!) but appreciate the advice mate

[wetnetscarpfishing]

you should come and fish in esses, there are a few great venues.

[CarefulCarping]

My face always lights us when you guys always upload another vid! Cracking fish there, them ATTS alarm recievers do and half vibrate when you get a run ey? What a teaser about the 100 video uploads next year, that will be something youve got us looking forward too!

Tight Lines, CC

[spaggage08]

@CarefulCarping Cheers Ross, yeah they go mental- i wear the receiver on an inside pocket on overnighters, and the vibration gets you up like a shot! cheers for the comment!

@nuffinbutfishing yeh lucky to get a bigger one, you've had a 20 though??

[nuffinbutfishing]

@spaggage08 yeah i know, 20lb 3 ounce, but im saying i'd be happy with another twenty, especially in the winter. (probably just worded it wrong)

[sleepyfisherman10]
