where does the pole laggy go on the grayling rig then?

Jason, when I tried this (shown it by a regular Wey, Itchen and Test grayling angler) about 10 years ago, we both reckoned on the elastic being 12-18" up your mainline from your float. It never seemed to make much odds to me.
In fact I reckon it just over complicated things but in hindsight I attached it with (size 18) swivels at each end of the elastic, totally OTT.
Whereas Ian uses rig rings; less cluttered.
Oh yeah, only use short lengths of elastic; 1-2"
Though as touched on by Ian, barbed hooks are the way forward, forget all the nonsense written about barbless giving better hook penetration.
(thought you'd like that idea)
