This pattern was originally designed for the Northampton
sections of the Grand Union. With boat traffic very heavy during the summer
months a slight shoulder was needed, to act as a break against surface movement
when fishing the seed tight across. This pattern has also been used with great
success in the east midlands on the drains and Nene, when fishing for Bleak on
the long pole. Also at home for general squatt/pinkie fishing on any canal that
is shallow across. Both wire and carbon stems available.
