  1. hi everyone, how do you set up a stringer? i have been using pva bags up until now but i found out that my carp rod doesnt have a heavy enough test curve to cast one out.
  2. thanks for that info franticfisherman2, but what sort of breaking strain leader should i look at using for chub?
  3. i have tried floatfishing but this pond has depressions where it is too deep to float fish and i have found out that these depressions are where the bigger fish sit.
  4. i just heard that dace can provide some fun sport on the fly instead of using float tactics all of the time.
  5. in addition to the flies for rivers topic, does anyone know what flies work well for summer chub and dace? and whether wet or dry flies are better?
  6. ok thanks for that info, but isnt it true that you have to have a heavier weight line to handle bigger fish?
  7. do any of the experienced fly-fishers here know if there is an alternative breaking strain of the AFTMA ratings in pounds and ounces? e.g. AFTMA 6 rated fly line, does it have an alternative in lb's and oz's?
  8. thanks again for the ideas guys will try both flat lead and running rig see which one works best.
  9. i was thinking of using a running cage feeder setup with liquidised bread and sweetcorn, so a helicopter rig would be a possibility.
  10. i dont know if any people on this forum know of the little pond under the causeway bridge in cookham, nr. maidenhead, but thats the pond in question i am going to try it over the next few days.
  11. my main bait of attack was going to be sweetcorn with one piece real and one fake on a hair so wont that make it sink slower onto the bottom?
  12. hi, i fish a sort of village pond type water and it is said to have some tench in, the only problem is it has a muddy bottom.can any one suggest any good leger/feeder rigs for this situation?
  13. You have to look on the reverse to find that it expires on March 31st 2006. oh such hard work!
