sometimes shop bought rigs do not have a long enough snood, personally i use 3 ft snoods, this keeps the bait well away from the sinker, so not spooking the fish, i normally only put 1 worm on and a piece of macky about 1 cm square if i got no peeler.Are the beads you are using luminous, if not there is no attraction, if they are luminous they do have to be charged for a few seconds (shine a torch or headlamp beam on them)
