Love your videos Rob. I'm getting back into fishing after a long break and always seek out your content as I'm sure to get some brilliant insights, they really help.

Hi, thank you for putting the time in and being thorough. This is awesome info! Keep it up, cheers ......

Priceless sharing, thank you so much. Greetings from Brazil.

loved the video Rob, 18 years ago I used to train beginner divers at wraysbury on a weekend but wasn't in to fishing at the time. I'm astounded by the visibility you have there as most of the time you were lucky to have anything more than a metre to see in front of you. this was brilliant when you did the rescue diver courses as most people had done their other courses abroad and never had to deal with the conditions in wraysbury

Great footage & angling. Good to see how it's looking underwater. Best

Great video Rob, very informative, really appreciate the underwater footage.

Thank you Rob for a very informative and detailed video. I’ve only been fishing for 18months but am already landing some very nice carp but probably more by luck than judgement. This video has given me an insight into the importance of leading about and finding ‘the’ spot and I think I have more confidence and a better understanding of how to do it now, too many fish lost in the last few weeks in very weedy lakes! My partner will be delighted that I’m ready to move onto this skill, slowly slowly for me 👍🏻😁

Very good video. I think you should do more detailed spomb dropping video. Record various numbers of spombs landing around marker from a drone. Then view underwater for coverage. Get a true indication of how much bait does what.

Question you said you have put bait over your swim when you showed your rig under water was no bait atall and how did you get undressed so quick and back in same clothes to catch the fish

I would like to see how chod rigs are presented when fishing at range and slack lines are not an option, particularly if you are fishing at range where there is a lot of undertow. At what range is sufficient for the line angle to be acute enough to present a chod rig and how slack do the lines need to be? Is a chod rig even fishable when the tows are too strong and putting bows in the line etc? Be interesting to see how and if undertow effects line lay.

thanks for the comments Karl I think rob is planning to cover this in the next couple of Understanding Underwater vids including bite indication and slack and tight lines.

Hi, I've got a question and it hasn't been answered as far as I'm aware!. Let me see if i can word this correct, so when your spodding is there any conditions where the bait drifts away during its way down? So when its flat calm we all know your bait travels straight down and spreads out the deeper the water. But would undertow be worth thinking about on a windy day? And will the bait you using make a difference? For example 2mm pellet will sink alot slower than a boilie so will it drift further away?

I do try to take up your advice Rob, but, after cast 4 or 5 with the marker trying to find that flat spot I usually get a gob full from other carpers on the lake for disturbing and spooking, I can never seem to win.

As you can see from the film, I dived the general area before to have a look at the lake bed generally, but not to find the spot. I then specifically dived the spot after I'd found it to see if it matched what I thought was coming back through the marker.

Thanks for the safety advice. I've spent a reasonable amount of time in boats and have a fair amount of experience. These were belted gore tex breathable stocking foot waders. Loads of anglers wear them in boats. Fly anglers and pred anglers especially and very frequently. You'll also have seen a life jacket as well..... but thanks for the input. Did you enjoy the film.

It could be those rubber hooks you can get 😂

While this interesting, it just frustrates me that there's so much weed in my local lake that, without perfect planning, I'm likely to just be sat in a place I won't catch anything. In fact, it begs the question: why don't more of us simply use a controller float and put bait mid-water where it's completely visible and out of weed?!

What's the "worse" in diving with carps 😂😂😂

So use black foam in clear water because it's the most visable but use a black marker float in clear water because it's the least visable? There's just no answer is there aha

the marker float tip from rob was more about not spooking the fish too much when using it at the start of your session

@RobHughesTV

3 жыл бұрын

Good point. However to clarify, black is harder to see from distance as it blends in, but when you get closer to it it does stand out, as will the others. I think black zigs are easier to pick out than yellow when close. Plus remember the marker float tips are day-glo. The other thing to consider with zigs is that the fish will usually be looking up at them and it silhouettes better when seen from below. Red zigs work very well too which also confirms that the red end stands out more under water.
