I bought those too, but from Korda. Will look on AliExpress, good tip that. Never thought about that while I constantly buy from there.

Floss caps. Just melt your floss into it and press with side of lighter.
I buy from Ali express in the bundles. £1 per 100. Buy 3 items for free delivery in the bundles so I buy yellow, clear and pink. Cost £3 and delivered within a week

Why not use some arma mesh or something and you can then floss through that and blob/tie it off?
Better still, use tigers and instead of floss use heavy duty coated braid. That’ll last longer than any boilie on a canal

Ok, hard hookers. On a Ronnie or German rig with a bait screw?
That'll stop em!

I tried that indeed, but I fish a canal with cray fish and crabs and small fish, so I need something that is durable and secure. But thanks for your input!

Tie the floss around the bait and not through it?
Even try using a boilie stop?

Hi everyone, thanks for all of your input! Really nice!
I have tried bait screws in the past but with softer baits, these also doesn't stay on they way I would like it. Sorry.
I indeed used long enough tag ends in the floss to create big enough blobs and then push them to flatten the blobs. I have some floss caps, so may give those a try again indeed.
Will experiment a bit, I have inspiration now!

Sounds like the Baiting Needle you are using could be too thick.
Also, use Floss that is Waxed.

Bait screws are far easier.

Get some floss caps, bit fiddly but work really well
|
|

Possibly a bit rudimentary, but is the floss you're burning big enough to burn down and create a stop, and are you tapping it with the lighter?
