Every now and then you find a bit of kit that makes life so much easier that you wonder how you ever managed without it. If you use a lot of PVA in your fishing then I think you’re going to like this little product. What I call the ’mega towel’ made by a company called Tiemco in Japan. (more…)

Whenever I cast out any rig I want to be confident it doesn’t tangle and that when it settles on the bottom the hook isn’t masked by any weed or bottom debris. I almost always mask the hook with either PVA tape or PVA foam or both. Trapping the hair at the same time definitely also prevents tangles. In the photo you can see two set ups that I use for 90% of my fishing.
I use the Extra Wide 20mm PVA tape from Kryston and PVA foam nuggets from Solar Tackle. I would be totally lost without these products, both of which melt completely and never leave any residue at all.
In the first picture the rig on the left is a simple single bottom bait. In this case the hook is masked with a few turns of extra wide PVA tape which has been licked a bit to make it neat and compact - as you can see the hair is trapped at the same time. This is also a good set up for distance fishing.
