AD QuickBite - How To Tie A Perch Float Rig

[@MidlandAngler]

I usually incorporate a small swivel below the Olivette .. I just found it stops line twist .. particularly on rivers 👍

[@realgraffix]

I dont usually float fish, but I quite fancy giving this a go, as the weather is cooling off.

[@g.w.3816]

Can this be used on still waters?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Yes it can, you can either fish the bait just laying on the bottom or off the bottom.

[@LloydTaylor30]

How is this rig ment to be fished? With the Olivette hanging under the float, or on the bottom?

[@ianbourne9970]

@adtv

[@gavincorbett1272]

Would u fish this just off bottom or over depth?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Can be used either way. A lob worm laying on the worm is a great tactic, or a little free roaming live bait off the bottom 👌

[@RSWOLF-s4v]

Would this rig be ok to use on a lake for perch ?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hi OD, yes I would be fine on a lake. You can either fish it static with the bait on the bottom or slightly shallower and let the wind drift it across the lake,

[@barryanthonywing4848]

Fishing for perch look for around 4 or 5ft of clear water,early spring for Big perch.

[@kamodaljeroace3075]

Im sorry for my little dumdum , but how does that float supposed to go up? if that tube is holding it in the place it doesen't move or what? Im fishing mainly in a lake where the depths are usually 4-8m depth, so im really interested how this tubing system works? Does it just slide up where the float supposed to stop when the lead hits the ground or what? Always worked with little cotton material stoppers, since I have to set the depth on 4-5m, never have i actually been able to use the little rubber stoppers because they eventually hit the O shape line leaders on the rod and it doesen't cast well, so cotton stoppers and low profile and you're able to cast the rod like 25-35m no problem with 10g lead

[@AnglingDirectTV]

The float is held in place with the float rubbers. You set the float to be fixed at the required depth. The float can easily be moved up and down the line under tension, but will hold in place while fishing. Hope this makes sense 😊

[@tightlinery7778]

Is this a paternoster rig ?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Hello Ry, this isn't a paternoster. A paternoster would normally have a weight at the bottom of the rig with the hook length suspended above it.

@@AnglingDirectTV ok thanks would you be able to add a tutorial how to do a paternoster rig for perch please thats would help out alot

Does anyone know what the knot was called?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Palomar knot 👍

[@hishaamadam1460]

What is the reason/benefit of having the Olivette as opposed to shirt buttoning shot or even bulk shot?

[@FanterFishing]

Hishaam Adam they won’t damage the line and easily changeable for different sizes.

[@hishaamadam1460]

Fanter Fishing thanks!

[@fishinmalarkey9830]

Alot neater than a row of shot More anti tangle And keeps your breaking strain of the line intact.

[@hishaamadam1460]

Mike Wilson makes sense...thanks a lot!

[@hishaamadam1460]

Perkin Warbeck good point! Thanks

[@feralgrandad4429]

Nice video, out of interest what mainline would you use with this rig please?

[@coreyanderson8830]

I’d probably use 6-10 lb line, more likely 6 lb tho

[@feralgrandad4429]

@@coreyanderson8830 thanks 👍

[@christophergomersall1266]

with this rig does the Olivette anchor the rig to the bottom. wont the perch feel resistance from the weight when he picks ups the bait?

[@AnglingDirectTV]

Depending on the depth you set the float, the olivette should be suspended off the bottom. Making this float rig set-up ideal for trotting on slow flowing rivers and streams. Hope that helps.

[@christophergomersall1266]

Tis is when a simple "float fishing" becomes "Nuclear"... Dont "Nuc it" Bob! Keep it simple. Regards. Fred.

[@robertocozzani1177]

wow

[@csul8087]

I would hardly say that was a perch rig , more like a basic float set up. I use very similar rigs for Barbel and chub.

[@barryanthonywing4848]

Great rig for perch ,lob werm or 2oz live bait.👍🫡

[@RustyShackleford66]

Bought the exact same components, made the exact same rig. Useless for livebait. Even a small livebait pulled the float under easily. 4g olivette is too much.

[@dpmaspam]

then reduce the weight!! simple

[@RustyShackleford66]

@@dpmaspam The point is, the rig as shown doesn't work. Don't make advice videos if they are wrong.

[@starkyog3827]

Was the video for live bait ? Do you see any live bait being attached or even mentioned ?
