Rob Keeps Catching

It can be very tricky at this time of year but adapting and tweaking his rigs is keeping the bites coming for Rob Shanks, good angling mate!

“After a previous session where I spent a large proportion of the time up a tree watching the extremely cagey carp ejecting my rigs in the crystal clear water, I returned for an overnighter armed with a new presentation.

After finding a few fish visiting a shallow margin I managed to get the rig in and small handful of bait without causing too much disturbance. I was rewarded at first light with this cracking common which weighed in at 25lb exactly.

The successful products on this occasion ESP 18lb Ghost Soft and size 5 stiff riggers.”

ESP Soft Ghost is a softer, more versatile fluorocarbon which can be used on a variety of rigs and leaders. Being a pure fluorocarbon it has the same light refractive index as water making it virtually invisible. Click here for more information.
