Nash In-Line Insert Lead Pads

Product Information

I developed this inline lead rig specifically for fishing Beausoleil but I would use it in any lake where the fishing is done at less than 80 yards and there is little or no weed. This post is the first of a series where I will not only explain how to tie a universal carp and catfish rig but I will explain why and how it works. I will also explain any tests to make at each stage to make sure you’ve done it right and what the significance is behind each test. I make no claim that certain ideas that have been incorporated into it are original, however their use in combination is a little unique. It’s a simple, super strong bottom bait rig for better hooking efficiency 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. In most situations, not much is needed to hook a carp. But big grass carp that I fish for with these leads have hard mouths and they require very sharp hooks and instant penetration to the bend, else they will throw the hook or bend it like it's a sewing needle. Thats why I really need the resistance from the lead to be able to achieve that without loosing the grip from the swivel beforehand.

It would be advised to use a hook link with some sort of coating to help with the anti-tangle properties of the rig to ensure on the cast the rig is separated from the line eliminating tangles. Helicopter rigs are possibly the most versatile presentation you will find, whether you’re fishing over firm or weedy bottoms they can be adapted perfectly to suit the substrate. There is a couple of different ways you can fish them, one being the traditional way of just having a Helicopter sleeve and a top bead. A ring swivel will sit between the two which your hook link can be attached to, position the top bead to the depth you think the detritus may be and it will ensure perfect presentation every time, you can use helicopter rigs on both leadcore & naked on the mainline, but a key thing to bear in mind is fish safety, that top bead must be able to come off in the event of a breakage so ensuring it can come away easily is a must.Each of the versions come in two different diameters, 5 and 5.75mm, to ensure a neat fit in most inline leads on the market – they really have thought of everything! The entire setup is built to be extremely robust, with a 45lb breaking strain, and by utilising flexible fluorocarbon instead of wire, this can bend and flex without weakening. Furthermore, avoiding the use of wires improves fish safety. All in all they are a fantastic little product that will be a must for solid-bag advocates! 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. 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 Tidy Stems will allow you to prepare several Solid Bags before your session, attaching each prepared bag to your mainline via a loop-to-loop connection, Palomar knot or Grinner knot when ready. 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.

CARPology Features 27-06-2016 15:59:00 How to get more out of an inline lead Tips and tweaks for inline leads to up your catch-rate Size and shape matters My best carp and catfish rig is a super simple semi-fixed inline lead rig that converts to a running rig for great results. Running rigs are best suited over a cleaner lakebed to prevent the lead from getting plugged in the weed potentially defeating to object of having it free running.

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. 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. 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.
