How to balance a pop-up

Avid Carp's Mat Woods shows you how to balance a pop-up using lead wire

01 Thin lead wire can be trimmed to a sharp point.

02 This makes it easier to push the wire into a bait.

03 Push in more than you need then trim it down.

04 Test the buoyancy before pushing it right in.

05 Hook flat on the lakebed, bait sitting-up, perfect.

06 The finished pop-up.
