Hi all, I am fishing my first match on Wednesday. I am an amateur angler and figured I'm not going to learn until I fish matches. Can anybody give me any tips or tricks?
I'm fishing Greavesend pond in Goole and I know that bream can be caught on sweetcorn. But can you offer any other advice when bream fishing. I've got groundbait and hemp. A size 12 hook, and shot spaced like so (Please humour my diagram)
<>____--...___..__.<<>>__?
loop on left that attaches to pole <>, than some line ___,then the float--, then 3 shot..., more line __, 2 shot .., more line, dust shot., the line attached to hook length <<>> 4lb line with a 2lb hook length, more line__ and then the size 12 hook.
Put simply I have shot spaced out getting lighter towards the float. Is this correct when fishing for bream? The fish I hope to catch are about 1.5 - 2lb.
What else can be added to this to make the day worthwhile?
