- Hi guys, I thought I'd do an updated video on the Dongle set up seen as my original video did so well. this video is mainly aimed at baiting it up with a mix of fish baits. I hope you find it helpful and if there is anything else you'd like to see with the dongle then drop it in the comments below. thanks for watching
Great video I learned a lot from that. Can see you really think about your fishing.
Ive found during a bit of experimenting, that i wasnt completely confident due to the way that the bait on a dongle sits so close to the point of the hook. Was getting quite a few missed bites. Tried the same thing with Varivas Catfish hooks. Was finding the same benefits with dongle ie no more swallowed hooks, but 100% hookups due to how the hookpoint sits nice and proud from the bait👍
Thanks for the video. Superglue soaked into the braid dongle loop definitely helps release.
@@debar1944 I've seen a few people do that, never tried it as I've never had much problem with it coming off but definitely something worth trying
@@marioasprou8548 You can shape the loop a little as well and it feels like plastic when hard. I got the idea from Zoo Look Fishing on TH-cam.
Great video Mario mate 👌🏽
great tutorial!
Smashing it on the dongle up here for hounds 👍 smashing dogs on the full maccy and Pollock but guaranteed to work for the grey ghosts 👍 you ever heard of Charlie locker 😁
Good tips for bait presentations 👍
@@StuartFrancis-e6x cheers mate
Great tips, thanks for sharing
Nice tutorial Mario. Short fat baits all day long instead of long and thin.
Really informative. One bait you didn't use was a king prawn. Is that because dongle rig is unsuitable for a bait that has a tendancy to curl? Brilliant video.
@@stevebrophy8178 it's definite can be used on a dongle. I have only used it a couple times to be honest. I would peel it, cut it down the center and elastic thew two peices either side of the dongle. It would stop it curling as much
Thanks for that. I will definitely give that a go. 👍
Awesome vid butty 👍
Nice video
taken a lot from this, thanks! could i ask what braid u use for your dogles?
@@IIIIMOOSEIIII I use spectra in 200lb. It's a cheap braid on ebay. No need to use anything expensive
Mario what length dongle you using good vids keep them coming
@@paulwilliams-rk6fy thanks mate, for the crab baits I tie them 40mm and then 70mm for fish baits
Hi Mario we're do you get your bait elastic
I use the Tronixpro Baitex
I use the heavy version for my general fishing and then drop down the the medium or light if I'm useing small delicate baits
