Soaking Pop Ups

[davedavedave]

If I was to let some pop ups soak for a while in a dip would it have a major effect on there buoyancy?

Cheers

For cork-ball pop ups, no mate.

Not 100% on standard pop-ups tho

On some of the Ready Mades it does mate as they absorb a lot of liquid and may sink or become balanced..So think its trial and error unless any of the lads can point you in the right direction as I dont use em.

youl be allright with cork balls dave like allready mentioned as for popup mixes just depends on the mix. corkballs on the safer side.

can only stress what has been said you wont go wrong with cork ball pop ups any others maybe will lose some of their buoyancy with gluggs etc. stick to the corkers they are identical to the freebies

i always use pop-ups, and i've had some in glug for about a month, and there fine but the cheaper ones lose there bouency if they had any to start with

depends what rig your using Jase.....chod rigs with standard pop ups(shop bought) will only stay popped up for about 9-10 hrs properly...no problem with a corker.remember in the winter them nights are long you dont want a bait thats not how it should be for 6 hrs...

you are correct, but when i'm night fishing i don't use glugged pop-up for that reason, instead i will use the same flavour on etheir in my stick mix or spod mix and bait up for the night ahead....
