    Fluoro pop-ups 14 mm pink and white!! Always been brilliant bait in Italy and just last week I caught a 20 pounder in a tiny pondd (second ever british carp)with a 25 quid rod, reel & line fishing kit for kids!!! I had to swim in to the pond to land the carp!! amazing day :)

    A few tips for anyone new tying this rig.
    1 - measure the length of stripped of section, you’ll almost definitely get this too long or too short to start with so when learning keep track of how much you actually need to play with
    2 - if you come to tying the knot less knot and have too much you can always whip a couple times more and even a couple back up the shank over the initial whips
    3 - if your hair length is too long, you can tie an extra granny knot on the rig ring
    4 - if your hair is too short or you decide to use a bigger bait you can use an extender stop and it might save you from having to do a total re tie
    Hope that saves someone some headaches moving forward

    Such a similar story to myself. I moved to Chods after watching so many videos and listening to other anglers. After 3 blank sessions I returned to my beloved snowman rig with a PVA stick, and sure enough, the catches returned. Confidence is everything. Cell always helps too. Best bait flavour since the magnificent Grange. Miss that bait. Keep up the amazing work.

    • @MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV
      @MainlineBaitsCarpFishingTV  3 роки тому

      Thanks Brad, yep confidence is everything! Chods are great rigs in the right situation and /or if thats what you confident in, but changing for the wrong reason can sometimes lead to a blank or two - glad you have the bobbins dancing again now!

    Always had a great deal of faith in the longshank snowman ⛄️. In fact I caught my very first 30lber on a snowman rig with a Mainline Cell and Pineapple combo but my favourite Mainline bait is still Activ8. Going to give the Snowman a try this week because I’m in exactly the same predicament on Christchurch. Found this video really helpful because it’s made me realise I shouldn’t be a sheep and do what everyone else is doing when I already have utmost confidence in my own angling and rigs!

      Me too i use a 10mm mainline Boilie topped with a 9mm pop up. I then put it in a PVA bag, I'm guessing it's easy to get sucked up due to the small size and buoyancy, I've had 8 carp in a few hours using that method.

      The old school active 8 was amazing. I was unsure being so dark. But wow they caught me hundreds of carp in the late 90s to early 00s. After that they seemed to change. Not quite so marmite and choc flavour.
      It’s a shame baits change like richworth tutti frutti. That was an instant catch 20 years ago
