Luke5600 61 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Evening all wondering if anyone else does this, When I'm whiting fishing I typically use a paternoster rig with two hooks, on one hook I'll use squid tentacle while on the other I put on a soft plastic worm or yabby, I've typically found that the soft plastic will get absoloutely smashed before the squid gets touchedWhen I fish it I don't put any action into the rod as you would when fishing a plastic I prefer to just fish it as a bait and let the current put the action into the plastic. I thread it onto a long shank hook the same as I'd thread the worm onto a regular jighead and find it works greatAt the moment I'm putting on the berkley gulp range of soft plastics for using but wondering if anyone else knew of a cheaper brand that would work roughly the same?With the worms I've been buying the 6 inch berkley gulp worms and cutting them down to 2 inch worms so I get 3 baits per worm but its still quite expensive compared to the squid that I use. Would using a lesser known brand and applying some scent inside the container with them work just as well or is it better to stick with the berkleys? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fishingmad 306 Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 stick to the gulps the scent works a treat! you can actually buy packets of the 2' worms and find they work an absolute treat on just about everything. You can also buy the 2' grubs in gulp alive tubs which should set you up for a while Luke5600 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
