Got a pair of these in my tackle box, one weighted version, one unweighted. Had the intention of getting out and seeing if there were any Codling around, using a liphooked whiting as a livebait, but alas not enough time to get out fishing due to work and home life. Havent missed out on much though, as Codling seem to have disappeared from the Thames Estuary now☹️ Perhaps give it a go with a pout for a bass in the summer
This might seem a silly question. I get that its a live bait slider. But can you use this with a normal bait. Was thinking it might work for getting a big bait out far when windy
Not a silly question at all. Yes you can use a regular bait, check out some of the RU-vid videos from South Africa. It’s all about working the rod to get the slider to move along the line.
If there are seals on the surface beneath where you’re fishing, it’s not a good idea to try and slide a bait out, but if they disappear for a bit you only need a minute or so to get the bait out and past the seal zone.
@@VealsMailOrder2898 Nope . This was origionaly made in South Africa and they Snell there circles weather using slide baits or just circles. the trick is do NOT strike just pick the rod up and wind. snelled circles have worked over in south africa and for me.
