I've been a fair weather angler for 50+ years and this is an excellent video. Clear, direct and using language we can all understand. Cracking offers too.

Hi Martin, Thanks for the kind words. We wanted to take out a lot of the "fishing jargon", to make it simpler for anyone to get into angling, so your feedback is brilliant! Thank again, Jimmy :)

Thank you for all the positive feedback so far. I can't wait to get out in the next few weeks to film the second video. Don't forget to subscribe to keep up-to-date!

Getting back into fishing as I fished with my Dad, when I was young and caught virtually nothing the Rivers were filthy in those days. Started again with a school friend cycled and used a plastic sheet to cover from the rain and loved it, but started Saturday work around 14/15 it has almost impossible to find the time since. Introduced both Daughters and Grandchildren to fishing and they loved it. Still working now at 60 but know I need to make the time.

Hi Steve, I'm hoping to produce some videos later on in the year to show how you can just go fishing for an hour or two and have some success. I think we all live such busy lives these days, it can be hard to find some time for ourselves. But stick with us and I hope I can help you out. All the best, Jimmy

This is amazing. My 8 year old watched this and we are gonna get this whip. Cheers mate

Great video. Very clear and simple. Never used a whip before. In fact I haven't coarse fished for many years due to work and ill healtlh. Your video has definitely wetter my appetite to have a go. So thank you.

Omg thank you so much i had no idea how to attach the pre wound rig onto the whole at the end

I'm getting into fishing to improve my health and wellbeing by being active in nature whilst learning new skills, following in the footsteps of my grandfather. I am planning to pass the same skills on to my children and support the evolution of the waterways through licence fees.

Just started fishing again thanks very much appreciated 🎣👍

This was brilliant!!! My daughter is 8 years old and has really got into fishing programmes and has started showing in interest in learning how to fish 🎣. I’ve fished twice in my life so I really don’t know what to do! But I’m very keen to share this activity with her and learn as we go together. This video was really helpful and I will definitely be watching more. Thanks so much! :)

My boys love going fishing but we are all beginners and need all the help we can get. Would love to get a copy of the books.

Very informative video, thanks

great video am making a comeback to fishing needed an update thanks

This has been a great video - we are going fishing for the first time and this has helped us out enormously. A shout out to Yately Angling Centre who have been great and set us up with a whip and all the other bits we need.

Great video and the whip set up deal is amazing. I used to fish lakes, river and sea a lot in my youth both on my own and with my dad. My 9yr old son has now expressed great interest in starting fishing after having a go at a lake while on holiday last year, maybe catching a 6lb carp on loan equipment helped 😁

Hi Rob, I also started fishing as a kid with my Dad in lakes, rivers and the sea. I'm so happy to hear that your son wants to get into our wonderful sport. I hope to see you out on the bank soon. Jimmy

Thank you, no one has ever showed me how to set up my whip. I’m getting back into fishing after a long term illness & multiple disabilities

One item that all beginner fishing videos miss out is how to handle fish - preferably with wetted hands , and do not grip the fish hard , point - point the vulnerable parts -ie the gill filaments , and position of the vital organs . Warm weather - don't use a keepnet as water temperature in margins may be too high - tight lines to all anglers - oh - forgot , if any new to angling don't like the idea of maggots , then you could explain about bread /wheat/sweetcorn as alternatives to wriggly thingies .

I did a little fishing about 25 years ago, want to get into it again as it looks good for peace of mind and mental health, need something simple as I do not know anything about setting everything up, buying a whip set

Don't forget, if you have any questions, hit us up in the comments?

Thanks for the hello

I purchased this kit from AD when I visited the UK from US. Did mighty damage to the bluegills and shellcrackers back home.

Nice work mate

Hi just found your KZread video . Very informative. I am just starting out (56 years old !!! ). Something to do in lockdown ! And I am hooked ! Having problems with disgorging ! I am not squeamish it’s just I can’t do it... all fingers and thumbs !! Any tips please

The reason Iam getting back into is because I want to improve my whip fishing

How do you reduce length of rig to allow you to bring fish in to hand ?

How about plumbing the swim ?

An update vid with new links would be appreciated

Hi Guys I've fished for years as a kid had a great buildup of gear which unfortunately was robbed how ever I've started to build back up and do my best to fix older stuff I had. My neighbour loaned me a 6m fix line whip telescopic. Just can't afford to replace my pole😂😅 how ever I'm like a child with it I've never used one and am genuinely struggling to land fish. How do I feed it back should I be collapsing it as I'm bringing them in. Should I generally avoid bigger fish.... Thanks in advance

When’s the next one out

Trying to get my grandson into the sport

My little brother is starting to get into fishing because I am but he hasn't really caught any fish yet and he's wondering what fish can he catch on maggots thank you from my little brother

Getting back into Fishing as my dad can no longer keep Pigeons so looking to get back into it as a hobby to keep him occupied and take my 3 year old Daughter (who’ll use the whip haha)

Only just got back into fishing and found this video, great kit but unfortunately it's out of stock.

Great video, clear & concise. My 7 year old daughter is asking to go fishing. Will we need a rod licence? Gov website says no, but if I'm with her will they expect me to to have a licence?

Looks a great starter kit but unfortunately it's out of stock !!

Wouldn’t using bread be easier?

Is there a reason why I only ever hear about fishing whips from British folk? I can't even find a place to buy a whip where I live in the US. Even searching Amazon for "fishing whip" brings me zero results. I know this sound silly but, does whip fishing not work over here or something?

Whouldnt be easier showing bread punch be easier and cheaper for young people ?

Thanks for checking out the video. Fishing has many benefits for your physical and mental health. Fishing requires lots of focus and awareness and this takes your mind off internal conflict and stress, similar to meditation. As a result, it helps to reduce anxiety, fight off depression, and promote relaxation. I know it does me a lot of good after a stressful week. All the best, Jimmy
