Another good video Matt, enjoy watching the bass fishing videos,still plenty bass being caught in thames estuary,do you ever use a bombbarda float with soft plastics, imagine easier use pike bung bh

Yes nice Bass definitely a year round species now. I have been experimenting with the bombarda. Very much a method for specific conditions and venues rather than a default but will be using them more in 24

You are the origami expert that actually looks pretty awesome mate 😎

Hi Matt… Great attempt, I can tell you watched Blue Peter. I’ve looked at using prawn lures form the kayak… just think in 15-20 feet of water you could relay make em dance, but a good lure is hard to find! I’ve bought some of eBay with a wire attached … not sure how you rig these🤔 they were cheap so no loss, but they do look good.. any ideas? I know you made a vid a short time ago about a good shrimp/ prawn lure….. but can’t find it. ☹️ Keep making the vids love to watch em and gets the brain going….🤓B

See if you could make a marine worm type lure with everyday rubbish for flounder

Hi Matt, only problem is you can't get plastic straws anymore and all food outlets only give you a paper straws now, also I'm not keen about putting more plastic into the sea. 😲.

You can still get plastic straws bet there’s some in the back of the cupboard. Can’t see a problem using recycled returned plastic in the sea. There’s more plastic in line or any lure surely !

Hey I’m still watching the video I just want to say when i went fishing today by Cambridge road in Eastbourne me and my friends rods were just moving the whole time is this because of how rough the water is or is it not because I saw a video of yours fishing in the same condition and your rod looked still also thank you for the new video

Many factors to consider - At you using grip leads are waves hitting a slack line ? Braid or mono. Also a more through action rod can bounce around more

great video matt but the only porblem is that you really cant find plastic straws nowadays, especially here in London they worth more than gold its all paper straws here

Mmm, more bits of plastic in the sea ingested by the fish then by us and the plastic eye with the pin. Very Artistic but Not a fan of that film matt…

I’ll pick up a bin liner of rubbish on the beach each trip.there’s 1/10th of the plastic in this lure than a soft plastic lure. So I’d have to loose 10 of them to be commensurate with loosing a soft plastic. You need to think less of it as a straw and as a small lure.I take your point about the eye that might fall out but ask you to think about a bigger picture here. I like many of my lure angling friends are a net positive in plastic waste by some margin.
