One thing that concerns me with upstreaming, is the thought of the hooklink coming back with the flow and getting tangled in the main line. I like to use long hooklinks, so would I have to shorten them for upstreaming, or is it a case of having the rig away from the end of the rod tip, so the hooklink sits at about 90 degrees to the main line?
Great start to the new season three barbs bigggest just over 10llb all caught on my upstream rod, mainly due to this thread and Ian's excellent article. Many thanks to all
Should I use a running lead or bolt rig for upstreaming? And what length hooklink???
Ian, hope this doesn,t sound like a silly question. If the river is flowing right to left, and if you,ve let quite a bit of line off to pin it down. In which direction do you strike ? Upwards ? to the right ? Sorry if i sound like a numpty. Thank you.
Cool I am going to give this method a serious go,
It will be perfect for fishing those unpredsured spots
