How to Use a Fishing Slide for Bait / Live Bait: A Step-by-Step Guide

Enhance your fishing experience with a Fishing Slide for Bait / Live Bait, perfect for deploying bait far from shore or in weedy areas. Follow these steps:

Step 1: Cast the Sinker

  • Choose a heavy sinker that can be cast long distances independently.
  • Cast it out and let it settle on the bottom.

Step 2: Rig the Bait

  • Attach your bait to a leader with a hook.
  • Slide the non-return clip on the leader onto the main line, positioning it above the sinker.
  • Slide the bait down the main line until it meets the stopper ring at the sinker.

Step 3: Slide the Bait

  • Use a non-return slide or clip to send the bait down the main line towards the sinker.
  • To move the slide, employ short, hard shakes of the rod tip or long pulls once the slide is underwater.
  • Keep the line tight to prevent it from tangling around the main line, especially whenin turbulent waters.

Step 4: Wait for a Bite

  • Maintain tension on the line as the bait settles into position.
  • When you feel a bite, keep the tension but don't strike immediately. Instead, pick up slack until the fish turns and hooks itself.
  • Mastering this technique will enhance your fishing success by optimising your bait's placement, increasing the likelihood of a catch.
