Aye yes something we’ll be putting together in not to distant future 👍 Hooks are loose, they do do a very limited range in pre tied but not sure if they’ll expand that or bring them over to the UK.

Hi, it’s the opposite bank to Loughborough Soar. Part of cranes pond, it’s nice as you can more or less part behind you peg.

A water butt is perfect for checking rigs 👍👍

Smaller shot are far from easy to use unfortunately. Have you tried slot shot or styles? They tend to be easier to use as they’re normally softer. Also being an oblong shape they’re easier to handle. 👍

Thank you 👍😊

Welcome Mark, and thank you for the comment :-)

Aye yes can't see why that wouldn't work. Should smell nice to LOL

Yep', don't be fooled by un necessary, Tackle Tart stuff (£6) when there's stuff, just as good already in the bathroom.

Nice video and that's very helpful .

Hi mate. We have them in the shop or they're available through our shop website. www.soartackle.co.uk/dosapiombo-float-shotter-718-p.asp Cheers Scott

Cheers mate will help me a lot just getting back into coarse fishing after a very long time things have changed so much really need videos like yours to catch up with all the latest methods 👍😀

Your very welcome. Top tip in getting back is to keep things simple. Prep at home so your not wasting time on the bank. :-)

@@SoartackleCoUk I bought my pole of youse a middy muscle tech 6 mtr with a few extra extensions 4 and 4 top kits I bought 2 packs of 3 sensas 1.50 mtr hollow tips and cut them down to suit the bushes for the 3 sizes of middy solid elastics you recommended and use this set up for all my pole silver fishing great kit ,I actually bought another muscle tech 6 for spares , I actually regularly fish it with all the extensions and the butt from the other pole getting me about 11.5 mtrs and not a bother tempted to go longer but can't seem to source spares anymore because I think middy have stopped trading any idea what's happening with them ,anyway sorry for rattling on ,what you think of my setup ?be nice to get an experienced anglers opinion regards owen

Hi mate, Set up sounds good to me. So long as it works for you that is the main thing. Stick to your 11 mtr its more than enough id of thought for most places. You could always chuck a waggler or a small feeder/bomb for your longer line. Sounds like your doing bob on with elastic choice. :-) As for MIddy they are still around. The original owners retired and sold the company. The new owners have annouced they hoping to have everything back up and running in March. They have been posting about stuff on Facebook.

Very welcome

Welcome mate 😊

Like wise 👍

@@SoartackleCoUk Alan norrish is going to come as well mate. Help me with a few bits. Hope that’s ok 👍

Not a problem at all

Welcome Jim, find you get a really good fit doing it that way. One thing I forgot to mention was that if you slightly twist the soft part left and right during fitting. That really settles it home.

@Soar Tackle yeah that's how I got it to settle in the hole. Twist left and right as you gently ease it into the drilled hole. Once settled it sits perfectly and in my mind the small dab of epoxy just gave me ease of mind. Probably not needed but I thought belt and braces. I'll be back for some middy top kits soon from you. Great service 👏

👍👍

Going to be a touch warm over the coming day so they’ll be perfect. Especially if your able to go early in the morning or evening when fish will be rising for any fly hatch. Good luck let us know how you get on with them 👍

Have it made for us Andy, but they’re struggling to get hold of the carrier component so not had any for a while. Hopefully I’ll have some before long though.

@@SoartackleCoUk yes, everyone has the same problem, Can't get any from any brand.

Thank you Alan, Hopefully get some more done soon.

Your welcome Steve

Hi Steven, unfortunatly the rubber floats stop are a single use thing. Although bet someone has come up with away of rethreading them. You could use pellet waggler adaptors of which you can re use. www.soartackle.co.uk/middy-pellet-float-adaptor-2958-p.asp Hope thats of help

Thank you 👍

Yes very much so. Think it’s a miss conception that maggots have to be live to use them. Dead pinkies are another great one. If your fishing a silty venue dead maggots / pinkies are the way to go. As you say they won’t burrow in to the silt

@@SoartackleCoUk on busy venues in my opinion dead’s are going to get hammered more then live bait as the fish are presuming the dead’s have been on the deck for a while 👍🏻

Yep 👍 can look more natural. Also if maggots burrow in the silt fish tend to dig for them stirring loads of crap up of the bottom which can mask any hook bait and or cause foul hooking

Is that through Snow melt or just rain ?

A little bit of both ... perhaps more because of the heavy snow from the mountains and the warm weather in the last weeks ...

Thank Mickie 😊👍

I’ve never tried it, might be worth ago though 👍

Yes they can be re used. Try putting them in a bait box, fill it with water and then freeze them in the water. Defrost when you want to use them and use them out of the water they were frozen in. They freeze alot better this way and look alot better than just freezing them in a bag.

@@clivecarpenter9374 thanks for the tip.

Nice one Clive will try that myself 👍

Thank you 😊 lots in my head to get out on here. I find far to much is actually aimed at those that are already anglers and possibly not explained properly. Enjoy your fishing 👍
