Or just use the premium rigmarole tubing eh Tom :D But yes, for river fishing tubing all the way

Got in there just before me, and said what I wanted to in much fewer words :D

No, the rig shown there is far too complicated for my liking! I only ever use LC in a heli setup, and I never set the rig up to ditch the lead. The lead is tied on to the bottom of the leader, the hooklink sits above this on a big ring swivel, and above this holding the hooklink in place is a...

If set up correctly, in the event of a main line breakage above the LC leader the hooklink should almost immediately ride up the leader and come off the top, leaving the fish with just the hooklink. This is why I NEVER dump the lead when using LC and always make sure the top bead (the one that...

Excellent advice. I always fish as slack as poss, even with LC.

Absolutely mate, the only problem with leadcore is the person using it, and unfortunately lots of people use products without thinking about how best to use them properly beforehand! As for rigs, just like you I've got two or three nice simple rigs that do me for everything and I try not to...

If set up and used PROPERLY then leadcore rigs are perfectly safe IMO, but like I say it has to be used properly, and like Tom says it's got to be a heli setup really Sam. Where I know Tom and I differ in our opinions though is that I think it's unsafe to ditch the lead with a leadcore...

So Chris now that you've finished the book, does that mean you can start writing some more articles for CAT? Its been lacking anything of substance for quite a while IMO

Just re-read my post and it seems a bit rude so I'll put this in: :)

Cannot wait for this book... I'd love to come to the launch as well but I'm away. Good luck with it Chris :)

I tend to look at the fish not the bloke holding it........ If you've caught a better fish than that (looks AND weight) then I'm sure we'd all love to see it on the front page

Now that sounds like my kind of water Simon, shame no boats though. Can't beat a bit of boating around IMO

That mirror is absolutely stunning stu. Guesty?:D:D:D

I know its not Korda so you wont catch as many mungas with them but these will I feel be invaluable for the discerning angler http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Fox-Maggot-Tweezers-/190420739563?pt=UK_SportingGoods_FishingAcces_RL&hash=item2c55f5e5eb
