Well I enjoyed that short session! The method is often thought of as a commercial fisheries tactic but as you can see it is effective on 'natural' venues. I didn't cast tight to the island as I wanted to be in deeper water and if I had gone tight that would be carp territory. The noise my reel made was because it was very close to the mic', I checked it and it's ok even after 5 years of hard use including sea fishing. The net I was using was my big 30ins spoon net which is a bit cumbersome but there was a realistic chance of a 20lbs plus carp. The new rod performed well casting a 35 gram feeder over 40 yards and has a nice smooth curve in action and can't wait to try it on the barbel. I only used about a pint and a half of feed pellets with a dusting of PV1 to help it bind and half a stick of peperami so the bait bill was very low. A very simple tactic which everyone should have in their armoury Bill

Just watching again bill n 2 say hello miss you n your no nonsense fishing god bless 😪🙏

Very recently been watching your videos bill, loved em! Got back into fishing myself after 20 years, with the lockdown and all saw a lot of people fishing and caught the bug again! However forgot a lot of my old fishing techniques and videos like these are a real help so keep up the good work mate

Morning Bill Another no nonsense and informative video to help the average angler catch more fish. Keep safe mate.

Good man Bill... love seeing you out on the bank imparting your knowledge! 😉👍

Love your videos.god bless bill🐟🤗🙏💭

Another great days fishing Bill. Hope you had a sausage sandwich when you got home! Don't forget the little backwaters video's you sussed out during the lock down Bill. Keep well mate and here's hoping for many more happy days fishing to come for us all.

Another good vid , The smell of sausages cooking when your hungry is like torture , Nice bag of Bream in the middle of the day, the swim may have been pre baited by others ..but you still have to catch them .

Hi Bill. Another great video and a quality fish at the end. I got myself a feeder rod during lockdown. I'm building up to using it as this style is still a little over my head. I'm working on waggler fishing at the moment and just wanted to say that your tip about Drennan hooks was spot-on. I've got room for improvement, but once hooked at least my fish are staying hooked now 👍.

Hi flick the tip when float fishing to bury the line but for the method just sink the line by immersing the rod tip. You must not move the method feeder after it hits the bottom as the feed will come of and you will have to recast. Bill

Hi well something is wrong as 8lbs line is almost impossible to break with a rod. When you say the line breaks at the knot do you mean at the hook or at the joining loop to the mainline. On this occasion I was using Drennan 0.20 about 6lbs bs and have managed carp in excess of 20lbs without any problems. BILL

@@easyfishing1936 hi again bill and thanks for the reply. I use the pre tied drennan hooklength to a drennan plastic loop link . The knot of the hook length seems to be where it's weak as it's either the knot or just under that snaps. Went through 4 in one session and didn't have any fish on over 4lb. It puzzled me and don't know if it's a bad batch of hook lengths or if there is something I'm doing wrong. I've recently purchased mavers hooklengths to see if it makes a difference but was wondering if you knew of anything to try or of you'd had similar issues. Never had this before. Thanks again.
