Not to mention he had his hands full.As much as I wanted to, there was a very alert boyfriend next to her and also a few people about so didn’t get the opportunity to whip my camera out
Cheers Bob and yes I have done it, but I found the best way was to make a little cage of chicken wire or similar and put the pebbles in that.Great report and pics there Mr Fish, well done on the Wrasse, unfortunately like you say some times they dont go back cleanly.
You ever tried pebbles as throw a way sinkers, ive been using them on the breakwater as its ruddy snagy where I fish, lots cheaper than leads but a bit bulking carrying is the only thing.
Just a thought - what about that tubular finger gauze instead of wire mesh? Tie a knot in it, pop yer pebble in, and tie another knot with a split ring or similar to clip onto yer rig bottom? Just snip it off to length.Cheers Bob and yes I have done it, but I found the best way was to make a little cage of chicken wire or similar and put the pebbles in that.
Tying line around them isn’t very secure and don’t want to add even more plastic to the sea.
Not going to spend ages drilling them, I’d rather buy the damn things!
But the short answer is I haven’t got around to collecting more pebbles or buying more wire mesh yet.
Also you’re right, very bulky, need about a carrier bag full for a session lol
Old tights are easier than chicken wire, you can e\/en use wet sand thenCheers Bob and yes I have done it, but I found the best way was to make a little cage of chicken wire or similar and put the pebbles in that.

That might work? I suppose cotton would ultimately be biodegradable?Just a thought - what about that tubular finger gauze instead of wire mesh? Tie a knot in it, pop yer pebble in, and tie another knot with a split ring or similar to clip onto yer rig bottom? Just snip it off to length.

True, but would the material degrade and would it be safe for wildlife?Old tights are easier than chicken wire, you can e\/en use wet sand then
Just ask a passer by in the street. I'm sure they won't mind as long as you're politeTrue, but would the material degrade and would it be safe for wildlife?
My thinking was wire would corrode away pretty quickly in salt water?
Not that I have access to any old tights ?

Dry stones and some gorilla super glue then glue a loop/something to stone that can attach to rig once finished leave them there.Cheers Bob and yes I have done it, but I found the best way was to make a little cage of chicken wire or similar and put the pebbles in that.

That's what really killed goliath. Da\/id and his iffy rough ground leadsDry stones and some gorilla super glue then glue a loop/something to stone that can attach to rig once finished leave them there.
That gorilla super glue is tough used it to repair many things and not failed like some glues! it has some flex in that stuff which is better.That's what really killed goliath. Da\/id and his iffy rough ground leads
It is good glue but I'd be still inclined to use a bit of caution especially if you got it back for a second cast. Like anything though, in the hands of idiots it could be lethalThat gorilla super glue is tough used it to repair many things and not failed like some glues! it has some flex in that stuff which is better.
you gather some up glue them while using other leads! then once set use them and not going to be Tournament casting with them just rotten bottom fishing!It is good glue but I'd be still inclined to use a bit of caution especially if you got it back for a second cast.
