Could someone please advise me the best way to set one of these up, using say, 2 SSG's. Possibly post a link to some diagrams?..

I've used these set-ups on small rivers for a long time, small bead before the hooklength, then a bead with a swivel on, short piece of line tied to swivel, with two SSG's pinched onto the line.

Last night, I had a problem with deep hooking. I changed the rig to a straight through one, with the shot on the mainline, and this solved the problem.

Seemed the bites weren't showing on the rod tip until the fish had very nearly swallowed the bait.

Thanks in advance folks

Is this any help?

For jungle swim chubbing, I keep it as simple as possible. Tie a hook to the end of the line. Attach another length of line as if I were creating a sliding stop knot, but only trim one end of it, leaving the other at about six inches to form the link. Pinch shots onto the link, done.

I don't actually see that the running version using a swivel and a stop gives any real advantage, and it's just something else to snag. If I'm not seeing bites, or hooking deep, I slide the knot closer to the hook. I can clearly see the knocks from minnows worrying the bread, though.

I think deep hooking with chub is more to do with the size of their gobs and the way they feed. They don't usually mouth a bait, it's devour and turn.

Maybe some kind of bolt rig would be worth trying?

thanks Randal, and Steve.

Appreciate the advice
