@TK-cl1jm noticed a couple of people saying this, but I don't understand what difference it would make. I have done it this way for years and years 🤷‍♂️

@@UltralightLads The hook is upside down if you go through that side.

@TK-cl1jm but surely that depends on what end of your drop shot rig you connect to your mainline? You can flip the rig anyway you wish if it's not already tied. Or am I not understanding what you mean?

@UltralightLads Usually people are tying hook on a leader that is already attached to the mainline. If you are starting with just a piece of leader, I guess it doesn't matter. I have never seen someone tie a hook to a leader before attaching leader to main line.

Yes, my go to colours for the Zman crawz are green pumpkin and the deal. They seem to work in both bright and dull conditions 👍🏻

@@UltralightLads Brilliant Thankyou so much, really appreciate the information. New to lure fishing and totally blown away by the amount of different colours of lures. Once more Thankyou.

@phils_adventures_outdoors no problem at all. Best of luck, and if you need anything else, then feel free to ask 👍

Thank you for your comment. Glad you liked the video and found it useful 👍

Cheers 👍 Glad you enjoyed the video. Its amazing how many different species are right at your feet on these piers. I cannot actually remember if we did take the squid home, I can't see us turning down a bit of calamari 😋

It's best to use a 2/0 EWG style hook with the finesse frogz. Great to hear that you have both recently got into the sport. Pike certainly put up a good scrap 👍.

Thanks mate! It's not been through lack of trying. We've been but decided you guys probably didn't want to just hear us chatting litter all day and not catching fish so decided to wait until we had something solid! Hope you're good! 😊

Sorry mate! We appreciate its been a while but with rubbish conditions and less than spectacular fishing its been a bit of a struggle. How's things your end?

@@UltralightLads Similar. Wet Spring made for a tough bite. I've been getting into the Saltwater bite as well this year. Chasing Striped Bass and Bluefish to counter all the Ultralight creek fishing.

​@@jboulderct lovely job! How's the striper fishing been? Any😊 monsters?

@@UltralightLads Slow start and no monsters, but I've gotten a few so far. My PB is 19 pounds and 36" so far, but hoping to upgrade that soon. 🤞

​@@jboulderct you'll smash that mate. It's still a very respectable fish mind. One day we will have the opportunity to come out and try our hand at them I'm sure!

Nothing wrong with stand up using bent butt rods especially if the fish goes deep.

Yeah, the video is wrong line should go in the eye on the same side as the hook point.

Thanks for subscribing. It is very much appreciated 👍. The LRF style of fishing becomes so addictive. It's amazing how many different species live right at our feet along harbour walls and in rock pools etc. Using light rods and a light line can make it feel like you've hooked into a double figure fish. So that little fish with the teeth is a type of Wrasse called a Goldshinny.

Thanks mate. Yeah they're nice gloves and the most comfy I've found so far. You should be able to get them at the following link.. www.anglingdirect.co.uk/spro-freestyle-fingerless-gloves

Yeah that could well have been it. We tend to fish very light so I wouldn't risk having the drag set too tight but it probably should have been done up a few clicks!

Cheers... it was a slow session to be honest but got there in the end!

Cheers. Definitely worth a go 👍

While we completely agree that perch shouldn't be hung from their jaws please take note that while we do lip grip them the body is always fully supported with the other hand so as to not cause any damage to the fish. We like to look after our local perch so we do all we can to make sure they go back in tip top condition.

I’ve done a lot of fishing for bass in the USA in the past 20 years and most bass are returned alive as catch and release is very popular there now. I asked a pro guide on my first ever trip there why they hold them by the lip. He pointed out how strong the lip is. If you have ever handled a largemouth bass the lip is formidable. He then added that😮 they really do not want to disturb the slime coat by handling. This was also why in some states or tournaments they don’t use nets to avoid slime rub. In the Major League Fishing events they impose time penalties for any fish handling infringements. These include a fish brushing anglers clothing or the boat deck. They also have catch, weigh and release so no fish are retained. Of course they use the boga grip type scales so the lip is the only part that should come into contact with the angler or the scales. If the fish is really big they will lip grip and hold it horizontally for a photo with the minimal contact from the supporting hand but the weight is supported. In My experience lip grips do exercise more control but like all fish handling needs to be done with care and consideration. Certainly if one were to swing a fish round by the lip recklessly then something is probably ku going to go wrong just as if someone is gripping a fish far too hard around the soft tissue for pic, or let it clip and hit something. I’m not saying one way is right or another just that there is more to these practices than can first meet the eye.

@@jameswigglesworth5406 There's no need for it. You didn't stick a thumb in the tench you caught.

Yeah we were saying that mate. We hadn't been up for a while but the weather killed it really! Will give you a shout ans get something in the diary!

Got to love a Zman lure! They work great and seem to last forever. Weather has been awful over here, it's been fairly difficult trying to get out. Water is very coloured at the moment but we're still plugging away mate :)

Really glad that I stuck with it. Still get the odd backlash but that's mainly from my lure accidently hitting the side of a wall etc. I want to try and learn a few different casting techniques if I can. Sure you'll get one to bite soon 👍

That's a great question! I'm pretty certain it was a Shimano but I can't guarantee it. The company I went with were called Sight Casting Madiera and they're pretty active on Facebook etc shayne drop them a message and they'll let you know.

Hi Adam. Its a K&F Concept camera bag that I purchased a few years ago from Amazon. Can't seem to find the exact one but they do have similar on there 👍

@@UltralightLads Thanks I'll check em out.

Cheers mate. Yes we have not been able to get out as much as we'd like. Although with winter fast approaching we will be aiming to seek out those larger perch this year. Hope you manage to get a session in soon 🎣

Thanks, much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video and best of luck with your micro venture 👍

Cheers 👍🏻. Can't beat a nice perch can you.

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it 👍. On that day, it was about 25°C. When it's like that, everything seems to come to life on the canal, which is great to see.

Glad you're enjoying the videos 👍. We've been finding quite a few wasps this summer, which is fairly rare for this stretch, so it was nice to catch a bit of a chunkier one. Tight lines mate! 🎣

Cheers! 👍 When it comes to fishing the canal, the bait caster is now my first choice. I never thought that would be the case, but I'm really enjoying using it. I still get the odd backlash, but it's mainly when I cast my lure into a wall or a bridge 🙄. Hope you're enjoying BFS. Yes, perch seem to love the creature baits. The 1.5" micro crayfish in Junebug colour seems to be their favourite.

We've invested a fair amount of time walking up and down this stretch, figuring out where the fish mostly hold up. We're yet to find that 3lb perch, and we know they're there, so we decided to wait and tick this off the list before we move on and purchase another ticket 👍🎣.

Cheers, much appreciated mate 👍
