To far? Or to close? And did my lead and rig move or is everything still in pole position?
Even when using backleads or flying backleads you might run into some problems. Dropping/lowering a backlead from the bank makes it really hard to get it close the spot you’re fishing.
Grip-on Safeweight; 3 in a pack
Nine times out of ten the backlead will be right in front of your rods, not knowing how your line lay is towards the lead. When fishing canals or venues with a lot of boat traffic, having your backlead right in front of your rods, is exactly what you want!
Pole Position Strong Grip backleads.
In addition, when lowering the backlead, tension builds towards the lead. Increasing the risk of you, unknowingly, moving the lead and rig towards you. Causing all sorts of issues you don’t want, like blunting the hook.
A flat and grippy bottom for a stable bottom lay.
A possible issue that comes with the use of a flying backlead is the lack of influence you have on where it’s going to land. When fishing on a slope, plateau or in the weed, it might cause you all sorts of problems!
In this animation the Grip-on Safeweight is used to create the perfect line lay when fishing down the bank.
What you need is a weight that’s adjustable to the situation you’re facing. It’s a huge edge when you’re able to determine how far of the lead this weight needs to be. Esspecialy when you need that perfect line lay for the last few yards!
Tight lines, team Pole Position!
