Mr. Marsden, I fully apologize for using this as my first posting on this forum, but the rig in question was brought to my attention on another forum I have been contributing to for a number of years now, and felt that something had to be said.
I cannot think how you regard the posting as 'vulgar', 'pompose', 'insulting' or 'self righteousness'. I will just not accept something that will perform detrimental harm to a fish or even has a remote chance of such a thing occuring. I'm not one of these anglers who feel that they have to catch no matter what, even to the extent of harming fish and just wanted to warn people of such things happening.
You mention it is similar to a method type rig, I feel it is not as, with the method, the bait is much more closer to the hook, with generally a hair setup being employed, with the bread roll rig, you can clearly see the hook dangling freely from the roll by a few inches at least. I remember a number of years ago, Rod Hutchinson experimenting with something similar, with a boilie threaded up the hooklength and then the hook tied on, the end result being a boilie on the hooklength with the hook a few inches away very similar to the rig in question. He soon disgarded this experiment as he found the number of foulhookings unacceptable.
Another matter is with the line being wrapped around the bait, cage style as mentioned in the article, and tied with 2 half hitch knots. Firstly, the knots would 'strangle' the main line, weakening it. Secondly, anyone fishing near snags such as over hanging branches, would be in danger of 'snagging' on these branches with the 'cage' of line, possibly breaking off, resulting in a tethered fish if one comes across the rig and hooks itself.
Once again apologies if I seem to come across forcefully, I do get passionate about things that could harm fish, but would just like to say that in my opinion this is a very dangerous rig.
