Paste is easy to fish imo, I don't use any shot on the rig, using the paste to cock the float, then I fish it over pellets and small pieces of paste.

would you boys & girls fish caster this time of the year or stick to lively
baits this time of the year since it is starting warming up mag/worm

i will use meat on one swim
cheers worms

i would fish caster shallow worms. but then again i never follow everyone else.

[rourke7719]

caster shallow can be a devastating method. Makes a good splash when hitting the water so good for attracting fish into the swim and it does tend to pick out the slightly larger specimens

but if your on about next sunday worms i would fish 11 mm pellets at mid depth, or full lobworms, may be size 8 hook with 3 bits of corn? or size 12 hook with 8mm square of wool?

i will be fishing slugs & snails on a size 4 hook & puppy dogs tails on a size
22`s or 24`s not decided yet they are defenetlly going to win the match
