    I don't get it:

    Why use Knotless, if you don't need a hair?  Why use any snell knot, if you use an aligner?  Why use a weak, simple granny knot for the loop?

    There are better, stronger options:

    comfortably tie a proper loop knot, FIRST; then cut off from the spool w/ zero waste; then, slide on the aligner & tie a Fish-N-Fool to the hook eye

    Both ways can be effective. That rig is easy an effective and has caught me plenty of big fish. I've never had a problem with the sturdiness of this rig. If you want to tie it a different way then feel free to. Nobody said you had to do it this way but thanks for the comment. Good luck on the bank!

    What are you chumming with?  Have links to a website, and how are you putting that much out?

    We chum with bird seed mix and chicken scratch. You can get that at any local feed/ farm store or southern states. We fill a bucket up with the amount of bait we choose and kayak it out to our spot and broadcast around the area we intend to fish.

  4. For Grass Carp we like to use soybean pack bait packed around the lead or method feeder and use blowback and combi rigs with either corn or pop-up boilies. We bait up 2-3 days in row with birdseed or chicken scratch. We'll throw 20lbs of bait the first day, 15lbs the next, and the 10lbs the day before we fish. We have had a lot of luck with that technique catching grass carp up to 44lbs. You can watch videos on grass carp fishing on our YouTube channel. Let us know if this helps!

  5. Does anybody have any tips for catching buffalo on Lake Wylie? I live about 30 minutes from the lake and I fish it for carp all the time. I've caught commons, grass carp, and even a couple mirrors but I have never caught a buff. Does anybody have any tips for buff fishing on Wylie? Location, Bait up technique, bait and rig used? Thanks!
