Another nice video. Could you do one explaining for us newbies working out what shot are needed for floats etc please?

[@JP.MatchFishing]

Thanks for the positive feedback! If you look online you should easily be able to find what's called a shotting guide or conversion chart. It is a great guide to help with shotting up your pole floats. Use this as a guide, and adjust as needed for your different floats / shots you are using they all vary slightly. The best method is to test them whilst out fishing, this will give you a true reflection of how best to shot up your pole float. Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣🎣

Can I ask please as a newbie. How do you know what shit and how much for each float please? Thanns

[@JP.MatchFishing]

A shot conversion chart will give you rough idea of what to shot each float up with but the best method is to test out while fishing to give you a true reflection

Thanks for the video, why would you use a 6" hook length in the margin when it's probably less than 4ft deep. Only asking because as a general rule of thumb I would use a 4" hook length for depths of up to 4ft and 6" for anything deeper. Thanks

[@JP.MatchFishing]

I prefer using the longer hooklengths in the margin as I believe the carp can become spooked sometimes if they bump into a heavy bulk of shot whilst feeding, also your bites will normally be extremely positive so I don't think you need the shot as close to your hooklength to see the bites. This is only my opinion, if something works for you, and you have confidence in it, don't change it!!! 🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🐟

Thanks, very interesting

How do you know what size silicone for different floats please?

[@JP.MatchFishing]

Manufacturers will specify the stem diameter of your float. But personally keeping a selection of various silicone to hand when making up your rigs will cover you for nearly all eventualities.
