Short answer is yes, it is guesswork which is why quite a few have recommended a bait dropper. You can adapt or make your own to suit your needs - I fish the Thames and use one that can drop over a pint on the river bed. I use my spod rod due to the weight when the bait dropper is full, but...

2 original Greys Prodigy Carp rods 2.5lb TC I bought these to use as floodwater barbel rods on the Thames - they can chuck a 5oz lead plus a pva bag but still have a great action when playing fish although I can't say they did too much of that. Slight varnish fading at the top of a couple of...

Rod position is always determined by the flow for me. The lower to the water I can get the rod the better as I'd prefer as much of the line to be on the bottom as possible. I use to 3-4 tungsten droppers around 18 inches apart on the mainline and fish a fairly slack line. I always fish shortish...

Stunning fish, I'm sure you're over the moon! I might venture down to the thames tomorrow as temps look good - the surprise would be if anything took an interest in my hookbait! As many have said though, that's the reason we love fishing rivers!

Pm Chris

There's a seller on eBay.com selling them and he will ship to UK if anyone's interested?

Thanks for sharing, that's a great idea. I'll be investing in some hemp now, always found it to be a bit of pain previously.
