Finally! 👍

Aw that's nice of you to think that! :-)

Great to hear!

Glad to help

I personally don’t put my dacron on backwards to stop crap. Didnt realise that was a reason why some do it. It’s just a much better fit for the way I do my dacrons. Regularly Swishing elastic to lubricate it is also absolutely essential for me. When you play fish the elastic is in and out in the water anyway. 👍

Thanks David

Brilliant!

Try it 👍

Welcome aboard the paste head club! 👍👍👍

Get some pre-tieds! 👍

Thanks Adrian

Have fun!

Nice one Stephen

You are never too old to learn Stephen, in no time at all, with Jon's videos to help you will master this technique. Tight lines...from a fellow oldie (66yrs old)

and does the extra 'wet' just make it easier to get out of the pot?

Extra wet is easier for a wary fish to slurp in

Thanks XLG

Yes it's such an exciting and positive way to fish!

@@JonArthur won many matches using paste love it

Best of luck!

Nice one

Thanks!

Go for it!

Thanks Sven

Good luck!

That's the first time I have ever heard a ban against cupping in paste. What a strange rule!

Indeed. Couldn't understand why myself.

It is!

Have fun! Definitely try both!

@@JonArthur I did Jon. Not much luck down the edge but 2+2 was ok…….but do struggle knowing when to strike as the float bobs everywhere. I’ll keep practicing though.

Good question! Warmer times of year usually and when the fish are misbehaving on other baits and being a bit too clever, rejecting harder particles on the hook. Too many fish in the peg I might avoid paste. Fishing more than 8m away it's harder too. Its always difficult making the right choice on the day.

Yak yak yak! 👍

Glad you enjoyed it

That's most probably just a big tail waft. They can shift a lot of water with one swish.

It always used to be paste over hemp when I was really into it, but pellets are often better now I think

Yep, only 5 anglers per lake

Thanks for the tip. I don't think I could ever wait 10 minutes on paste for a bite though! If it's not gone after 2 mins I'm back in and out. Regularly doing that with the softest paste possible creates maximum attraction.

@@JonArthur correct it will stay on your hook for 10 minutes ,,but in that time you can feed other areas with pellets and build up that area and look out to of the surface to carp that maybe swimming around and you can see where they are and go and plan you next fish and while you baiting up the area next to you there only time you get a bit is when the pole moves and then change to you baited area up and fish there and feed the first area you fish that way you feed and let it rest untill 10 minutes and then you fish there afterwards so you alternating your fishing spots

Thanks for the tip! :-)

Glad you enjoyed it

Go and give it a go!

Best of luck

I use white tyre marker crayons. The same ones garages use to mark punctures. They're a game changer for me!

@@JonArthur thanks Jon

Watch my various white acres vids as the fishing is really varied. Loads on my channel if you scroll through.

Silver Sharpees are brill

I like john too but the kiss is a bit much, do remember he is married with a daughter! you homewrecker Michael x

Is he, 😭 I never realised

Lake 3, Snake or Reptile are the best for bites at the mo

:-)

Ha ha

I just cover them in loads of water and leave them. The wetter the better really and I don't mind if they go a bit mushy either.

ty John

I think you might be right

Good tip!

All depends on the conditions I think

Give it a go! :-)

Hope you caught a few!

@@JonArthur I did…..but no way as good as you did…..got pestered by bream. 😂🤔

My Aquos handle has been bombproof, so not sure what's happened there!

Its sticky enough for the hook to stay in the middle and cupping it in ensures it doesn't rip out 👍

👍🏻👍🏻

Yes absolutely! I have many times!

It's the Matrix Ethos Pro 17L EVA Bucket. Been available some time.

Cant say its ever crossed my mind but im sure it might work for you

Yes absolutely, you are hiding the hook inside a soft blob of feed that can be hoovered in easily, rather than a stiff ball that stays on the hook forever

🤓

I've been fishing similar for tench on a club water with a bit of success but with stiffer paste . Little fish peck at it and you have to be patient and wait for bigger fish to arrive. I've found paste made from micros works well . I could not fish your venues , it's too hectic. . Wonder if the sloppy would work . I'll try it.

Give it a go

😂😂

Yes I actually fished with Mr Yi from China (Old Ghost) at Cob House Fishery and he used a long extra string whip and their paste technique. They use a very light and fluffy ‘potatoey’ paste unlike our fishmeal and extra long floats. Lots of vids online if you search, but its a very traditional technique with strict principles and I think no match for the English style where allowed.

@@JonArthur Yes - I use it to get in a quick session with minimal gear , but pole/waggler/feeder/bomb will out fish it as you can cover all the water in your peg .
