If you add 2/3 molasses to 1/3 liquid it makes it cling to your bomb/line and bait a lot longer and produces a nice cloud on the way down as well as on the bottom. Just something i do which works fairly well.
hi , i ve never criticized anybodies videos but have to question that rig , attaching the bomb with a snap link swivel the carp will be trailing the rig if it snaps above the swivel or am i missing something ? thoughts please matrix
The setup is the norm at this venue and many many others in the area with no issues. A fish should always easily shed a barbless hook, but I cannot ever remember being broke at the snap link swivel with 8lb+ main line.
@@JonArthur thanks for the reply Jon , i did say above the swivel and just because its allowed does nt mean its safe , i am a bailiff and some of the rigs we have found on tress and reeds are death rigs , obviously its a different company and there may be patent issues but at least with the Guru x safe feeders the line can pull thru the feeder so its not being trailed along
Hi John, looking at your elasticated set up it dont look safe compared to the guru version. If your line snaps the fish would be swimming around with your bomb. Or am I missing something ?
Matt its all about fish welfare. This elasticated stystem don't look safe. I have every right to comment. Rather than an idiot like you getting back to me id rather John himself reply back
@@rikkiegglesden5295 your absolutely right Rikki no need for it to be fixed, you can still use elasticated feeders thats free running,the guru feeders come to mind.
The setup is the norm at this venue and many many others in the area with no issues. A fish should always easily shed a barbless hook if something unfortunate would happen, but I cannot ever remember being broke at the snap link swivel with 8lb+ main line.
Jon always informative, just a quick question do you experience any tangles with your hook length being that long. I’m fishing 4-6 on a method and sometimes leave the hook length out to encourage bits, but it tends to tangle, any advice greatly welcome. Top videos👍
Makins, Meadowlands, Packington, Decoy, Tunnel Barn Farm, Boddington, Clattercote, Earlswood, Stockton, Barston etc. All big and popular venues and all allow elasticated feeders with no worries or issues.
