    Great video! I wrote a comment on one of your zander videos, where you used the same rig, that I'm struggling with hookset ratio. This video explained, why I might have this problem - the positioning of the hook. Will try out your hair rig!

    Another great video Andrew. Did have two questions until you explained why to use a fixed lead. The other question is, has the fluorocarbon been OK for the pike, i.e. not bite offs

    FC 0,50mm snaps really easy if you have a pike on. 0,25mm is ok for zander.

    I use 0.40 fluoro leaders, I knot them too. In 5 years only 2 pikes snapped it, also caught my PB pike on it, but if the leader is in their mouth, only god knows. With their sharp teeth, even a little pike can in theory bite it through, if the line touches in a bad angle with the teeth.

    Any pike present you SHOULD be using wire, otherwise your knowingly putting the fish at risk.

    Hi. The lead- system is fixed? Or it works as a running rig and the fish needs only a small pressure to run? Keep up your good work. THX

    Andrew, I'm assuming you've had a few pike as a by catch on this rig. Does that thickness of Fluorocarbon cope okay with them? Just i use 1mm on my pike rod so was interested. Great channel, subscribing was an easy decision.

    Andrew! Please! I have watched many/most of your vids. I love them and you because of your sweet attitude. When you say "thank you" to the fish. etc. Please do not advocate "live-baiting" It is deliberately cruel and unnecesary. Which is morally and ethically different to fishing/angling. Please do not do this.

    I agree with you that it's a bit cruel. But fishing is a cruel anyway. See when you play a fish and enjoying that process, fish actually fights for it's life. Also, very little percentage (in most cases less than 5%) of fish make to reproduction age (hence fish lay 10000s of eggs to sustain the population) and sacrificing odd small specimen does very little damage in big picture. All in all, I do think what I do and even though fishing is a bit 'bloody sport' in a way, I accept that fact but try to do as little damage to the fish as possible in big picture. Cheers

    Jesus dude you are FISHING. Do you think a big Zander or pike moralises before butchering it’s prey? Seriously, this vegan bs is a little too much nowadays. If you think live-baiting is cruel then I suggest just don’t fish at all, it’s not like catching a fish on a hook is rose bush stroll. Maybe try something milder with a stick f.e cricket.
