Just bought a shitty cheap rod from AKTION, I'm 35 going down to fish wirh my son for the first time Never fished in my life I'm a pure amateur in my flip flops and sunglasses with a couple tins of beer. I bloody love it all the hardcore fishing pros grumbling at me they can suck it up you gotta learn somewhere. Best to fish at low tide Or hightide?

I used to use multipliers and I can cast well with them but switched to using braid years ago, so that ment using fixed spools. When distance casting I use 16ft rods and when bass fishing in the summer I use 13 ft rods or if conditions allow I use carp rods as its a lot more fun.

Yea some good points as always Alex. I’m always flirting between the two , I do like that low profile to the blank of multi-storey with a better balance, but conti set up is so easy to cast and I’ll get the same distances or further. I prefer braid too on my fixed spool but not wanting to confuse too much for this video we swapped to a mono !

We know bass change their feeding habits but no on really fishes for them on lures in winter so this could be a missed opportunity I think.

Hi M, it’s derek from the club,just a quick I know you know your plug fishing,so while I like to catch bass and caught many this year. I did see that you using single hooks,you mentioned that you can lose some that way,but as I like to put most back the trebles are not the way forward,so what you think of 2 singles with the barb facing backwards and also while trolling would nor get caught up so often? Let me know what you think. Thanks.

@SaltwaterAngler

2 жыл бұрын

Hi mate, I don’t think the end single being up or down makes much of a difference to snags or hook ups but thats based on two years stats. Your right that trebbles are trouble for catch and release. However they are much more likely to catch and hold a fish. More important I think is sharp well made (2/0) and keep that bass head up when your playing it. I don’t have all the answers ofcourse , remember to make sure the gape Doesn’t catch round the lure body. Barbless trebbles maybe ? Speak soon Derek

Are those lugworm gutted salted n frozen? Or just salted then frozen? I was told if freezing lugworm to nip the end and push the gutts out then sea salt and wrapped in newspaper into the freezer. Also didn't know they made tapperd leader. That would be handy cuz I use a 60lb leader onto 20lb mono and the problem with that I've found no matter how well I tie the uni knott it always makes that clunk clunk sound as the knott bumps through the rod eyes when casting.
