Thanks for very instructive tips and advice on rigs for silt, I'm fishing a venue atm that is bad for silt, I will be for sure giving the heli set up a go at weekend, beautiful ghostie there at the end 👌👌
When fishing helicopter rigs you'll get much better hooking properties if you trap the swivel below the top bead with a float stop rather than having it sliding, you've got to leave a gap of about an inch so the swivel is free to rotate during the cast but any more than that is just giving the fish more time to reject the bait before getting enough resistance to pull the hook point in.
I love the helli rig allows me to fish most the places I go without needing to change as often silty usually weedy and one lake full of crap...know venues ban Bradford and leaders but never heard of lead set up bans!...why would the helli set up he possibly banned on a venue?

I fish a silky water and been trying to find videos of tips for ages and this is it thanks you!
Get some kelp or seaweed in your baits if you roll your own.
very helpful video. quick question though, whats the need for the cork in the pop up?
Some great tips in this video, cheers!
Im such a big fan and im a big fisherman too ! Keep uploading because i love your content
Casting with a soft hooklink is tangling like mad for me on a helicopter setup. I'm starting to just use longer hooklinks now.

Surely the heavy paste wrap will have the hook bait sink deep in the silt ?
What if krayfish are present would you just use a immatation pop up to counter the krays or still opt for a bottom bait ?

Decent video mate. 👍🏼
Great vid as always
Great tips. Thanks.
Could I use a boom section as the hooklink?
Nice tips!
Bang sea weed or kelp in your baits helps to stop silt stinking your boilies.Paul ..scaly baits.
