Always found ip that when you hook them in the edge, the initial bolt with a lead on a short line can bump the fish. I like to use a 4oz flat pear inline drop off for targeted edge fishing.

Works for me mate.

It works, but it's littering. If you must drop the weight use a Leadclip with no tail rubber, and tie a stone on to that so all you are doing is dropping a stone rather than 4 ounces of nasty lead

Stalking in the margins, I love using a float fished lift style with plasticine or putty moulded around the hooklink mainline join, either the swivel or knot.
The float is held on with a float band.

Baitwise, whatever works from what you have seen. Sometimes it will be sweetcorn, other times worms, kidney bean, maybe a boilie, even a few drilled pellets.

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
