SUCCESS WITH SOFT PLASTICS
As promised last time, I will be bringing you my tips for fishing
effectively with soft plastic lures over the next couple of
installments. Here are the first of my “10 Commandments” for success
with soft plastics:
1. USE THE RIGHT GEAR:
You’ll get more from your soft
plastics by matching them up with the right tackle. This begins with
responsive, high modulus graphite rods, fitted with lightweight,
low-friction runners and quality hardware. Reels should also be
ultra-smooth, with plenty of bearings for long life and trouble-free
performance. The line used on these modern lure fishing combos is
typically gel-spun polyethylene (either braided or fused GSP), rather
than traditional nylon monofilament. Gel-spun or GSP line has had an
immense impact on soft plastic fishing. Its incredible
strength-for-thickness online amoxil and ultra-low stretch translate into
dramatically enhanced casting performance and an amazingly high level
of ‘feel” when it comes to detecting bites and setting hooks, not to
mention steering powerful fish away from line-cutting snags!
2.USE THE RIGHT RIG:
Wherever cheap without prescription buy online Camagra possible, avoid adding
swivels, clips, snaps, rings and other unnecessary items to the line
or leader when using soft plastics. The cleanest, most effective rig
of all is gel-spun main line connected straight to a nylon or
fluorocarbon leader using a sturdy, reliable and thin-profile knot
such as a Double Uni, Albright or Slim Beauty. This leader then
attaches directly to the jig head with either a tight, fully-locked
knot (in light leader material), or a small loop (in heavier
material). What could be easier (or safer) than two good knots between
you and the fish? (You’ll find these knots clearly illustrated in many
knot tying books and also on-line.)
Next time, two more tips to improve your catch rates when using soft
plastics…
