Cant think who it was on here that i replied to concerning the use of double livvies on snap tackle.

Anyone tried it ? It is deadly on the right day. Very Happy

I have used multiple livebaits on a single hook rig for catfish before. It involved a very long hair that was threaded through the baits gills and then returned to the hook and kept on with a piece of lakky band. The three roach stayed alive all day and swam away when I released them. I would imagine that the same sort of thing could be tweaked a bit to fit in with the wire trace double hook set up.

All i mean is that the baits would be lip hooked, one on each treble, so one bait in front of the other if you catch my drift ? Very Happy

ive used this with all sizes of baits, but small roach work well. you can lengthen or shorten the last treble on the trace so you can have two baits very close, or slightly further apart.

hope that helps you lads.

Well done Tony. Youve had some good fish. Told you it was Deadly ! Glad that i gave some useful advice.

I used to use it on the Broads fishing from a Boat. It often outfished any other method.

Oh yer, I,m da man !! Think i might "PATENT" the idea, just dont know how to go about it ! lol!

tried it a few times but as yet not took anything on it BUT the waters i have been trying it on are very hard so it dose not mean anything.
I also think my livebaits are a little large ?

At least youve given it a go Kell. Its seems to work better with roach about 3 inch or so.

3 - 4 inch roach work well Bones. You can use bigger baits, but it just means spacing the trebles more apart.
Got a little tip off Lamby, use those red bait flags on the hook to stop baits from coming off. Also adds a bit of attraction for the pike i reckon.

But how do you go about catching Livebaits...? Seems a bit of a pain in the ar*e and it's murder to try and catch livebait in winter??

well its not too difficult to catch a few roach or rudd or perch etc. Take along a small 3 mtr whip and attach a simple pole rig with size 18 or 20 hook and fish maggot or pinkie whilst your two deadbait rods are out. Once you have a few small liveys in your bucket then you have the choice to use them or not. Keep some maggots dropping through the water or perhaps some fine sloppy groundbait to attract the bait fish. In fact it might not be a bad thing to keep the maggots and groundbait going in around your livebaits. Attract a shoal to attract a pike.
