Default No Boobies

Hi, when fishery rules stipulate that boobies are not allowed and the fish are tight to the bottom and want a very slow retrieve and they are not feeding on anything natural, how do you target them?

Many thanks in advance.

Chris

Are these allowed on waters where boobies are band, thought it was the same principle?

Thanks for the reply.

Some waters are more careful to ban "buoyant lures" or "buoyant flies fished on a sinking line".

You could try a ginked up muddler or sugar cube suspender buzzer, but as Steve points out check the wording, or better still ask at the fishery

All the best Nick
