Hi guys,
I'm having problems catching the roach on my stillwater. I have tried fishing the float, but can't reach them easily and accurately. I want to try to get them on a feeder setup with maggot, but the complete bottom of my water is covered with thick weed. Has anyone got any tips regarding overcoming this problem? I have tried with the feeder, but have not ever had a single bite. I'm using a small blockend feeder, sliding on the mainline (3lb) stopped by a bead and swivel to a hooklength of 1.5lb to a size 20 hook. I can only think that the feeder,bait etc is sinking into the weed as it always comes back in, completely covered.
