I use pop ups in PVA bags for almost all of my PVA bag fishing and use putty to set the height of the pop up. I have the hook bait just sitting above the bed of pellets. Since making this change about 2 years ago I would say this made huge difference in catching some weary fish. In addition I only use small PVA bags,, I have tried most sizes and find small PVA bags is one mouth full which also works on weary fish. Thanks for the video.
I find the small Korda or esp solid bags a perfect size. I haven’t used bags this past year at all though but will definitely be bringing them back soon.
I stuff the wafter at the bottom of the bag without anything under it, only to the sides. So when it lands and bag melts, chances are that wafter will be free at the end of the pile of pellets like yours was closest to camera.
I fond if i have the lead at the top of bag it introduces wobble into the flight of the bag when casting out. Since that ive always kept the lead at the bottom just on top of some crum.
Indeed, so many benefits. Present well on most substrates, ensures you have bait around your hook bait, protects the rig. I prepare around 10 the night before to prevent faffing about in the cold 😂
Residue a bad problem on pretty much all 4 bags. Seemed to b attracted to the hook and I'd not of been happy fishing like that. Didn't seem to bother him too much tho for some reason. Is it just that make if bag or are they all rubbish? Next time maybe?
Do you think the bag residue would put the fish off? It did seem to hang around the hook bait for a long time, I have some admittedly cheap bags but i licked the corner to stick it and it tasted like shit, I wonder if that glue taste will linger in the water
@@CarpCraftUK great thanks for the reply. What i have done in the past is make my ova bag without my rig inside just a bag alone and then with a baiting needle pull my rig through so the pva bag sits on my hook its worked for me but i see everyone doing it like you so im going to give it a try i just dont have any pva tape
The hot fish oil does contain a fat content so will thicken if temperatures really drop down low, the creAmino however is vegetable based and therefore alot thinner so this will suit winter fishing alot more. Hope this helps.
Hi mate, I do often make a batch up of ready mixed baits if I’m going for a session or few days but if it’s just for a day or couple hours in the evening I keep them separate.no reason why it’s just something I’ve always done.
