dead peg
Well-known member
Not a bait to fish this time of year but Ive seen other anglers bag up on paste fishing the margin pole .. but although Ive tried , its something Ive never got to grips with .
Can anyone help please ?
I'm not sure on the best way to make the best paste ? From groundbait (which type) or scolded/wet pellets ? Do I add eggs to bind ?
Should the weight of the paste at dead depth help cock the small pole float , so you know if its still on the hook ? If so whats a good rig/set-up to use ?
Also the hooks seems small to the size of bait used , 16-18's with a thumb sized piece of paste on it ? With that in mind would a small banded pellet help keep the paste on the hook or impede the bite and stop the fish slurping the soft paste in ?
Shipping it out can be a problem also at times , even at less than 9 mtrs out
Cheers Gents .
