Set your Ronnie up helicopter style on the tubing. A large bore ESP bead with the larger side hole on the very end of the tubing. The helicopter/Ronnie will fly up to that top bead and settle well over anything. Use 35lb coated braid unstripped as the boom. That will still present well in weed. Or just do the same with your chod section on that tubing
Just superglue the bottom of the tubing into a tail rubber that goes right down and is wedged onto you leads swivel, so that tubing cannot under any circumstances come free. Because of what I mentioned earlier that could happen if that rides up the line.
You are completely right. It's not a death rig, it's one of the safest rigs you can use.

Sounds like a good idea but they will probably ban me for gluing it on lol

Yeah, you're probably correct going on everything else you have said. Probably time to accept that your fishing there is never going to be enjoyable if you are catching anything. Unfortunately that's the way sometimes. If you are blanking you will get no problems and no one will care. If you are catching plenty.... Suddenly all the stupidity that can be mustered will be applied. You see how I already knew you were doing well on the venue when your problems started? No coincidence.
Not sure where you fish, but Kells said you were Kent. DDAPs are a great club. Try and get yourself into there if you can. They have some excellent waters, even one with a growing 60+ in it with plenty of 40's to go at.
My friend Lee runs it. They have venues all over Kent and are an excellent club.

So would you of banned someone foe life.

Fussy bailiffs have told me to desist using rigmarole free fall because of its braid exterior. I guess I wasn't fishing successfully because I didn't get a ban.

With some bailiffs it would of been worse than that. Some would have you pulted to death with Cell boilies in the car park as a warning to the others....

You can't win mate. My club banned it because of the metal inner.

I tried making up the chod with tungsten tubing the bailiffs suggested and its rubbish. I think ill give up on that idea and just go back to ronnies.

Are these ban happy clubs run by a committee of matchmen and their seedless grape IQ's ?

Absolutely not, I'd have done exactly what they did.
In ten years of owning a lake I've only ever banned two members mid season and the other members were delighted I did.
Chods aren't allowed on Savay and I know some of the guys were using lead clips with a length of flexible braid as long as required (sometimes really long) and a chod section on the business end.

I use a naked chod and i have 7 inches of tubing between the lead and the line saver bead.
