Appreciate your comments, yea i understand what you are saying about stealth and i am pretty aware of the need for it. No, many different snags with the same result. I have had plenty of baits come back that look like they have been sparring with Edward Sissorhands and a few hits that have gone from strike to snagged up.
Yesterday was the first time I have moved to plastics, weedless rigged Squidgy fish, be very keen to do more of it, I think at the right time it would be very effective, specially low light.
I guess I am perplexed because in previous year I had a pretty good strike rate.
