Im trying to figure out how to fish over canadian pond weed that looks quite tall plus silk and other weed when 50cm of tubing is mandatory.. its a gravel pit. At the moment im thinking heli kit on tubing (proper faff) with chod rig and pop up but can anyone suggest any alternative methods? Thanks

Not sure i would feel confident at all using lead clip with stiff hinge and pva bags will probably attract the breamage

You might find some inspiration here. I use this setup - with leadfree leader instead of tubing as shown - and it gives great bite indication. He explains how to set it up for fishing in weed.
