Be great to see a final shot of the rig laid out in full, or a diagram so one can clearly see the order of things. Thank you

My standard set-up. Works very well.

[@edderrs6983]

Great video! Ive always fished lakes for slack water for pike and never used a lead set up, this shows its very simple and cant wait to try! Cheers guys!

How much over depth should this rig be fished?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

A foot over depth would be fine. The bite indication will be fine over depth due to the flow of the river straightening the rig out. 👌

what oz lead do u use with the 25g float?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hi Gus_mcg,
The lead will be sitting on the river bed, so it's more to do with the flow of the river rather than the float size to determine what size lead to use. Depending on the strength of the flow you may need to up the size of the lead and float to cope.
Hopefully this makes sense 🤞

I dont understand the point of the float in this rig

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Probably the most important feature. The float gives you instant bite indication. With out the float it's a simple running ledger rig.

Float make no sense if you have delkim
