Fake Baits...
Going to try this rig out at the reservoir next week. A small Korum method feeder and two enterprise fake casters on a short Guru size 16 method hooklink.
Load the feeder with groundbait and a few pellets and hemp and see how we get on.
Did it work? I've had extraordinary success with a couple of pieces of fake sweetcorn 'popped up', just on their own. Tench and bream don't seem to be able to tell the difference between real and fake corn at all.
I'm trying a similar rig for some big tench I've found. To date they don't seem to like the fake stuff as much as the real things?
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes.
First time I've used fake baits to be honest, I've used plastic corn stops on big baits but that's about it.

ReplyDeleteWorked really well, see my post last weekend.
