    Really enjoying the match style way of catching barbel. Much more enjoyable than the speci style and far more adaptable when conditions are tough. I know you use powerline for hooklengths Steve but how do you find it does against abrasion? I would imagine being a pre stretched line it's abrasion qualities wouldn't be as good as a traditional mono such as maxima/sensor/big game etc?

    Hello Steve, have you ever fished peg 88, on Belmont's Asda bank. I did recently and found the peg very uncomfortable on the mud bank. There is no platform here . How would you approach it. Would you stand up on the peg. For the duration of the session. Or is there a way to position a seat without getting right down to where the water is.

    • @fishwithsteve-ft5xx

    Hi can I ask why with a fairly heavy float have you shirt button the shot rather than an ovillette and droppers to be positive, I really want to try float fishing for chub but unsure of river presentations so many conflicting information out there . Many thanks

    • @Crustysmith
      @Crustysmith 27 днів тому

      Sorry but I couldn’t help offering advice. The positive approach comes from the size of the float. Bigger float equals more shot carrying capacity. A shirt button pattern, in heavier shot, on a big float, will get down positively in the increased flow yet still enable the bait to rise when held back. An olivette, or any other form of bulk, reduces the amount of lift that can be induced in the bait. A nice long taper down to the hookbait can make the bait appear more natural in some situations and induce more bites. If that doesn’t work you can always slide your shot down to form a bulk and see if they prefer it that way. If Steve responds please listen to him rather than me. But I think I'm close enough.

    • @fishwithsteve-ft5xx
      @fishwithsteve-ft5xx 26 днів тому

      Ovillette bulks are great for getting the bait to the bottom quickly for bottom feeding fish, chub move up and down in the water feeding at different depths a spread shotting pattern enables the hook bait to rise up when holding the float still, the 18inch hooklength and small shots at the tail end of the rig lift giving natural presentation when the float is held back. the big shots hold the float steady and keep it moving in a straight line without dragging offline. keeping my hookbait in with the loose offering longer as the float travels downstream
