Just a thick question or 2 lol. Can you create a balanced snowman rig by using one say 18mm saturated ball and another say 14mm unsoaked ball, and could you make a wafter or popup by drilling a bigger hole and inserting a Cork or a foam plug or would the crays be able to pull it out?

I have no idea. You'll need to experiment for yourself. Bear in mind that after prolonged soaking the wood becomes saturated with the glug and becomes a bottom bait or a wafter.

Question for crayfish lovers

Not a fan of artificial baits. What are people's experiences with the artificial boilies. I have bought some of the ESP ones and gave them a bit of a glug.

Any confidence in these types of thing anybody?

I'm using some rock hard bottom baits that are lasting well but looking for a pop up option, these look ideal

Another question for a crayfish specialist. If carp eat them why are there so many

Just noticed that all the pix have gone. Give me a day or two, and I'll try to get them up again using another host.
