Was just wandering why you are using a ledger setup for margin fishing. If you are going to use alarm setup then yes this should be fine, maybe a heavier lead would be better and bait fished on a hair.

Otherwise I would float fish the margins. If you are fishing right down the edge then I would set up with a small pole float, and lay about 4-6 inches on the deck.

What size fish are you expecting to catch?

''Sending a rod out with baitboat'', do you intend to be in the boat with the rod?

Try the lift method, thats my favourite way to fish the margins. Particulaly effective for carp, bream and tench.

is this a wind up?

 

for margin fishing i recommend a crab line, with a full tin of westlers on the end, still in the tin, obviously with a 13 gram weight built in
