  • @beefsteak8540
    @beefsteak8540 8 месяцев назад

    I think the baiting strategy helps secure a good hook hold.. What I mean is what mood the fish are in on the spot your fishing. If the fish are on edge and are mouthing the odd freebie you will achieve the odd bad hook hold. You can learn a lot from surface fishing In the way fish feed and creating competition on the area your fishing. When you see the hook 3 or 4 inches back those fish are having it and must of really wanted that hookbait..

    • @DiaryOfAnAverageCarpAngler
      @DiaryOfAnAverageCarpAngler 8 месяцев назад

      Yeh waiting pattern definitely plays a part as it does with Rig Lengh etc. A fish moving while feeding will always be easier to hook than a slow moving stationary one. But I can't prove it but in my opinion all things equal in rigs and waiting approach I feel the lock flips over quicker and catches in the moth faster than a standard wide gape just from my experience of both in the past. I might be wrong though 🤣
