Guest DV8 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Hi all When you rig a cable tie through the two eyes of a livie, does it stay live for long. I'd imagine sticking a cable tie through someones head has a tendancy to kill them. Davo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big-Banana Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I've had Yakkas stay alive for around 3 hrs and they're still well and kicking. Use a small cable tie or learn how to bridle them with a bait needle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netic Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Mate they stay alive much longer then putting a hook through there back. I know it sounds strange bu that do. It is definately a better way to do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domza Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I've never heard of this technique when livebaiting. Has anyone got a picture or can draw a diagram of how this works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That site also has some other great tips Yes Domza, it has just about everything I need in there and have it bookmarked. There's also a great knot in there called the "Gary Martin Worlds Fair knot" which I use now and has never given me trouble. http://www.thaifishingguide.com/fishtecheq...fair_steps.html Give it a shot one day..easy as pie.

abitfishy Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 That looks so harsh on the fish Oh yeah, surprised some RSPCA nut hasn't had it banned! Although I hate to say, this nut agrees it does seem a little cruel - fish have feelings too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
