I am sorry Johnny. The way you were talking I thought that you would be
fishing at "distance"!. Woops! I appreciate that it is important in winter
to use fine tackle. How do you attach your hooklenghts? A loop to loop may
solve it. Or perhaps using 5lb line, of a very low diameter, ie. Sensas
Feeling straight through on backing? However, be prepared to pay about £7
for 100m!

Hi,

When fishing the Warwicshire Avon and the river Severn in winter it is
nesecary to go as fine as 1lb hooklength and size 22 hooks to get bites,
mainly from Roach upto 6oz, I rarely get broken on the strike, mainly due
to
the size fish and using a quality rod helps, I currently use the13ft
Drennan
im8 super waggler rod which is a fantastic tool, I fish a lot of matches
and
am always at the top end of the results after the weigh in, it's just this
line twisting that annoys me after a while, I will try those micro swivels
and see if they help though, I will try anything once.

Thank's for all the replies.

Hi,

Does anyone have a solution to line twist on fine hooklengths when
waggler
fishing? When fishing the waggler at distance and using hooklengths of
1lb
to 2.5lbs I get a lot of line twist after a while which drives me nuts.

Thank's.
