It seems you can buy the leads by themselves without bait clip.
also you can buy leads with bait clip.
Can you buy just the bait clip by themselves without leads attached.
can you incorporate a rotten bottom in this set up. ?
Must say they look a good idea but never seem one up close,do you think they can be copied

Originally posted by bigandy View PostHi Lads, I have started using these splashdowns and like the all in one set up they offer. however I have noticed recently that if I give a good chuck the hook releases whilst in the air, is this normal? i have noticed it is normally a fair way out when i notice it has released, is this the norm, Anyone else use these? what are your experiences, Im thinking its defeeting the object of the bait clip if this is happening.
cheers
The other advantage with the Gemini splashdowns is you can buy the mould and all the kit to make your own weights.
But like the other system it seems impossible to install a rotten bottom into the rig is this true ?

Like I said earlier you wouldn't want to use these on heavy ground because of the cost and more importantly on heavy ground you probably don't need those extra yards anyway. So whether it's splash down or outcast it's not even a flippin issue.
The beaches I fish I always use a rotten bottom,its not a completely rough ground but its mixed where you can get snagged and loose the fish and all the end gear as well.
I don't like this when it happens you don't only loose the fish and end gear but the fish drowns and you are also littering the beach with lost gear.
So I asked the question because its important to me so it is a flippin issue to me.

Harry, thats a reasonable question.
Looking at it the clip could possibly take one of the rotter type links, i will have good look and try some different links and give you a reply sometime over the weekend.
Gary is currently working on a rotten bottem system to work with the outcast system.
As for buying the clips seperate then thats a yes, cost you £3.50 for 10 clips.If people think you are an idiot, why speak and remove all doubt !

i like the shape of them think they will realy fly.
anybody who prefers casting off the grounds and have problems wth hook coming off clip when lying on the bottom this is the lead for them wth the clip.
a very clever thought out clip imo.
if you pass mine tommorow late afternoon i will give you two to try might save you a journey to shields. johndid you know panel pins comes in diff sizes ?
