Glad you enjoyed it mate, great to have you onboard

Great thanks Mate, I gave up fishing & going to the ocean about 16 years ago, my wife just hated it, blood sport she said. Also my fishing boat was flipped bow to stern by a rogue 10m wave on the calmest day I had ever been out in the ocean. Ironical really, you can never be complacent with the ocean, thank goodness for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter, otherwise I would have surely perished that day. Well at 66 I've separated from the wife, found my surf rod & Alvey 600A reel, done some maintenance, all good. So I'm ready to go back to surf fishing. You have to love KZread, I learn so many new skills, it's all about 'Best Practice' at work & at play, if you want the best results. I will be fishing the great East Coast at Wooyung Beach. Thanks again for your training & knowledge.

Great video mate with useful info for a new Alvey reel convert. Had my sons bike fixed at a bike shop come fishing supply shop in Gosnells. When I picked the bike up I was checking out the Alvey reels he had and the owner informed me about the imminent Alvey reel factory closure. My Father and Grandfather were mad Alvey fishos, and I wasn't going to miss out on finally buying and ordered 2 reel and rod combos. Will be hitting the beaches as soon as they arrive.

Thanks for the video mate

Put a bead and a lightly gripped stop knot onto the trace line (not the hooklength) between the weight clip and the closest bead, with anothe bead beneath. Will help 10fold with positive hookups rather than dropped/missed bites due to giving a little resistance to the hook, yet will still work as the rig is intended to

Awesome rig but us Aussies are only milesbehind,they've been using it for years and years in Europe. Not by design though,they have beaches and shoreline over there that are flat and shallow for hundreds of metres,hence the necessity to invent a rig for extra long casting.Whereas here in Oz we have beaches that have deep gutters closer in do we don't have to cast miles in most situations .Old fashioned paternosters and running rigs have done the job.These pulley rigs though are awesome for all the reasons mentioned in this vid.

Hey mate. We made the sinkers. We will film a video on this very shortly.

G'day Brendan Happy to say I've been out a bit with the Alvey although the fish must have known I was coming for them. I've tried this rig you've demonstrated and find it brilliant. One more question I need to ask is if the Alvey spool needs to be filled. I've had a couple of bad birds nests coming off the reel and wondered if it is too full or perhaps not paying enough attention to how I'm laying the line on with retrieval. I used Platypus test mono and small swivels with this. I'm thinking these reels need a particular type of line.

It's the nature of Alveys to twist line with every cast. The line goes on strait and comes off sideways and after a few casts it gets pretty twisted. good swivels help a bit but I gave up on mine. They are very well made and a simple design. just a flawed idea.

Your concept is very good one, but you need to cameras coming closer to see the hardware you were using😊

I saw this vid during lockdown 5 and ordered an Alvey and rod combo. It arrived 2 days before ld 6 when it was blowing a gale. Regarding the so called twist issue, is it the same for a spin casting reel too. Maybe more due to their smaller spool? Also, are those sinkers available commercially?

The other slight variation I use is I tie a split ring, then the bait release sinker clip as all the pressure fighting the fish is on that sinker knot, and for peace of mind, I reinforce it.
