Well lads i am proud to say ive beat my PB and had a great couple of hours on the canal today.
I had some Sprats in a bag in red dye for a couple of days and they have worked a treat.
Thanks for that advice Stubbo, on a dead bait ledger float rig they came in lovely.

I would like to thank all of you for your help and advice, You have helped make my dry run worth it.

At last cheers cheers cheers
Did you use the same setup as the one I showed you ? I think it's a good setup I always have at least one rod set up like that 😊 did you get round to trying sink and draw / wobbling ?

We can expect a few more pics now you have got the knack Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Aye mate i think i have found the right spot and the red sprat did it i think.

The same as you said but not as heavy ledger, i used a line through barrel ledger. Any dangling things off the line tend to get stuck on some rubbish at the bottom of the canal so use a thin barrel weight, enough to help the bite take when pulled.

I use barrel leads as well but they work better with a bit of weight in them as the weight should stay where it is and just the float move well at least until the run develops into a full blown run lol it does work better with a float like the one I showed you and if you have a Range near you or anywhere else that sells cheap fladen fishing gear they do a similar float that's almost half the price and does just as good a job Very Happy

Cheers Adie, it feels good to be on a run and catching something. For once i hardly used my lures and kept my eyes glued to my float Laughing

I am going to spend a couple of hours tomorrow trying for some more but on saturday i am going further out with some guy i met today on the canal pike fishing, who quickly asked to rub his dead bait with my red dye after seeing me reel them in Laughing
I have been promised a gold mine of huge perch but we will see about that.

Well done mate, glad you have found them. I've never used red spray so will give it a go. It's great when you ask a question on a forum and you get the advice you need.

Hey guys, can i ask a question on weather please? I was fishing today and it was really sunny and mild with no wind and never had a nibble, where as the past 2 days i have been catching, it has been grim and windy.

Does these weather conditions help in any way.

Bright sunshine can be the kiss of death with pike on a lot of waters especially if its clear water some waters they will carry on feeding but not on many waters that's my findings anyway Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

Cheers Adie, i thought as much. Tomorrow is looking pretty grim after dinner with a fair bit of wind. Hopefully that helps in my favour as going on a mission out of town further up the canal into unknown territory.

She got cross with me on Wednesday because she wanted to go fishing too. She's already 'caught' a few roach on the pole (with a fair bit of help). Pike fishing might have to wait until she is a bit older and more patient. I'll train her on the 'fish a chuck' type fishing first Very Happy
