If your hooks are razor sharp and your rig can reset you're worrying about nothing imo buddy. You have to bear in mind that the tighter you fix that lead, the easier it is for carp to use that lead to throw the hook.Step 4 – Thread a Covert Tail Rubber up yoru chosen leadcore leader, In this case we’ve used CamFlex. Step 5 – Attach a size 8 Flexi Ring Swivel to the leader by the big ring. Like all anglers, I have spent hundreds of hours tying carp rigs, tweaking them and looking for the best rig set up and presentation. When I came to France and became the owner of the Beausoleil fishing lake, I realised that I needed to make a bottom bait rig that was easy to tie and suitable for estate-type lakes with big carp, large catfish and sturgeon. My solution, which I confess no one else seems to like, is to turn your weight into an active bolt lead. Simply put a large steel washer on the lead just short of the COG. Wind your line as tight as you can so that the washer bites in the silt or comes against a small unevenness in the lake bed. You then fish with a bend in your rod. When a fish takes, the hold of the washer is released, the rod springs straight and it jerks the weight towards you just a little bit. This increases the bolt effect by adding this extra force to the COG weight. More importantly (and I am only guessing here) the sudden movement of the weight frightens the fish into moving off before it has had time to eject the bait. Gemini Tidy Stems are available in two sizes (5mm or 5.75mm) Each size has a specific diameter, designed for use with an inline lead that has an internal diameter/bore that correlates to the Tidy Stems diameter. The lead clip is designed for fishing over firmer lakebeds, whether that be gravel, clay or firmer silt, it is one of the simplest ways of fishing and only requires 3 items, the lead clip, tail rubber and a swivel which will sit in the lead clip. Because the lead can be taken on or off the clip it enables you to alternate between sizes of lead if you need to, it’s just a case of taking one off and replacing with a bigger/smaller one. It is probably one of the most popular lead arrangements in modern day carp fishing because it is so versatile, you can set it up to be semi fixed, or to drop the lead on the take, it all depends on how far you push the tail rubber over the clip. It’s always worth moistening the clip before you push the tail rubber over to ensure should you have a break off the fish can still get rid of the lead. The only situation to avoid using it in is weed/soft silty conditions, the lead will pull down into the weed and even if your hook bait is sat on top of it, the hook link will be arched over hindering your rig presentation.

Any incorrect or damaged goods must be reported within 5 days of receipt. These will be replaced as soon as possible at no expense to yourself. All unwanted items must be either returned at your own expense or taken into your local Angling Direct store. There are then the Tidy Stem Tubing Kits; these have a slightly longer fused loop, which is used to mount a ‘tubing to stem’ connector. As the name suggests, this seamlessly joins your tubing to the Tidy Stem, with no worries of the tubing pulling out and ruining your solid bag! Again these come with six stems, as well as three connectors and two metres of tungsten tubing for your three rods. These inserts are designed not to grip the swivel (size 8) and this means that the lead will eject from either the swivel end or off the tail rubber in the event of a bite – which helps ensure that this drop off style of lead arrangement works more effectively. Torpedo-like tournament style inline leads may be easy to cast at range, but can roll on uneven lakebed features like gravel bars or the marginal shelf. Flat pear or gripper style inlines will work far better in this kind of situation. So remember to have a ‘horses for courses’ attitude when using inlines and dramatically increase the efficacy of your set-up! The semi-fixed inline set-upI make no claim that I’m the world’s greatest angler or rig guru because I’m not. I am also not in the pay of anyone or any company which I may mention. What I do know is how and why this rig works at Beausoleil, and the positive effect that it has had on my own and many of our clients’ results and why it could help you catch more carp and catfish in the UK or in France. Why is this the best carp rig for fishing estate-type lakes? Another problem with a semi fixed lead is that if a small fish takes the bait but is too small to shift the weight, it just hangs there without you knowing thus preventing you catching something larger. When using a free running lead, you will detect even small fish movements but you lose the bolt effect of the lead. This is where the technique described in the video that Highy posted is so interesting. You can have a bolt effect and a free running lead. I intend improving on it by using a Fox COG lead and then adding a collar to turn it into an ACTIVE bolt lead. What ever mould you are using, whilst it is cold work a little Blue Tac into the lead loop slots. When heated it will eliminate flashing around the lead loop and more importantly ensure the lead loop does not move during pouring. It allows you to ensure that only a minimal amout of lead loop is showing on the finished lead. I did not want to give the impression that I thought what was being suggested was dangerous. I was trying to make the point that the looser the swivel was coming from the lead the safer it was for smaller fish. Often I have wound in and found something small on the end that not only has wasted all the time that rig was in the water but, if it had been a breakoff, would have killed that small fish.

Now we have the chod set up, again still presented on a helicopter rig but fished slightly different, this rig has been designed for fishing over choddy and weedy bottoms, although you may still get bites on gravel spots using it, there are definitely better options for fishing over clean lakebeds. The only difference between this and a traditional helicopter set up in the incorporation of an extra bead, this will be place above the helicopter sleeve so the swivel will sit between to two beads, these can be moved accordingly to suit the debris you may be fishing over, you can also have them well spaced apart for ‘running chods’ this way the rig will slide up your leader/line and nestle down onto the height of the weed perfectly. It is advised to use a small lead when chod fishing due to the extremely short hook link, the last thing you want is a big lead swinging about potentially causing the hook to fall out. Another alternative would be to use a heli-safe instead of a sleeve, this will ensure the lead will drop whilst you’re playing the fish. I do not understand why, once the swivel has pulled clear of the lead, a small fish cannot be detected in weed. Is this because the weed causes too much friction on the line for its small movements to be detected? Either way free flowing or stiffly fixed you are not going to detect it. Standard Rubber Inline inserts pull out of leads when set-up to allow all leaders/tubing/knots to pass safely through the lead, for fish safety piece inline insert, consists of a hard plastic tube approx 50mm in length and a ribber rubber insert. and it also messes up the indication a bit and might let fish swim inside heavy weed with little movement on the bobbins.

Have a look at the fox tadpole insert set up, perfect for inlines and PVA bags, they have a ridge on them so initially they stay on, but will easily detach when playing a fish so they are safe to use, the swivel always stays put btw the lead detaches from the insert, If you truly believe that this issue is costing you fish then you need to be thinking about the feeding situation imo. If they are feeding that gingerly that the lead systems that work for everyone else are not working for you then there is something fundamentally wrong with feeding situation. One ring provides flexibility for your hook link. The other ring is for the attachment of your chosen leader material. Solid Welded Rings 6mm for making Heli Leads. Place on the loop instead of a swivels and pour you lead.
