Hi All.
Looking for some advice, i have just joined a local club that has a couple of nice lakes with fish up to 30lb.
the rules state no braided hook links and no bolt rigs.
Any suggestions for rigs and methods
Thank you

Agree with Paul on post#2, running rig definitely the way to go. There's a guy on you tube who uses tubing and a mono hook link. I'll dig it out for you when I get home, currently on the blank, sorry, meant bank.

It's not rocket science, but it's worked for this guy and for me on the odd occasion I've used it. I will be home about 10:30, will put a link up after I've had some snapping.

Here it is. I've used this rig with a small hook/light mono hooklink and also large hook/heavy mono. Both work. I've only used it on bottom baits and wafters, but no reason why it wouldn't work with with a ronnie on a gemini boom. Think he says he uses it for pop-ups though!!

Tend to use wafters a lot more lately on a Gemini low level ronnie boom with size 4 mugga.
