if it any use to you sharki lad thee uses 0.10 hook link to 0.12 main for me whip rigs
Spot on. thats what I use --Im still using Bayer perlon by the way, 1.7 main and 1.1 hook length.
The piano wire is 1mm thick and on the roll i have is a label with 18MW written on it--dont mean owt to me --but maybe will to a piano tuner.
As for feeding put a drop of water in a baitbox and add your feed till so it just holds together.and its stiff enough to throw. a gentle underarm lob should do the trick.
It will come with practice.
I can cast and sink the line with my right arm and feed with the left at the same time.
PS: I need some practice myself, not been fishing since August and not used a whip since last March and got my first winter match on Sunday.
