Great video Tom....I would love to catch as many fish as you do one day. I seem to have lots of blanks. I need to learn more about the tide, wind & season 😔 I have brought a new seat box & bait waiter that i cant wait to use. I use circle hooks mainly as i am always nervous of deep hooked fish. I have watched tons of videos on de- gauging tutirials but its not easy learning from You Tube compared to the real thing especaily when a conger is wrapped around your arm full of slime & tangling itself on my rig in self defence! No one taught me that would happen in the dark too 😮 so I'm glad you taught me about doggies have sand paper skin in advance !
Geeeez.....so much to learn about sea fishing compared to course fishing, but I am trying 👍
Cool , this Sea Angling game certainly keeps you on your toes….yes l will try one rig with no beads and black sequins…. And one with Lumi beads… and slow down with lugworm.
Will try sandeel and mackerel.?
Really look forward to watching somebody from the England team even though I know I will be never know as much as you.
My idol used to be Steve Allmark…
Another brilliant vid bud……. Interesting to see the comparisons with the hooks….. food for thought……. Keep em coming bud 👍😁🎣
I get to go fishing a lot but I have to cook dinner, all about compromise lol
To be honest I love cooking too! I just have a wife who spoils me!
Mrs says you sounded more like Martin Freeman tonight!! Try the experiment with plain leads or buckets etc....

Nice one Tom...Great watching
Thanks Mr Andrews. Looking forward to tomorrow 😀 😊 Am I allowed to take my cameras?
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 of course...Just bear in mind that supplementing my well known lack of ability is an innate DNA copy of a bloke called Jonah .... So be prepared for any filming to lack 'classic' status..... I suppose you do hold editorial rights and so could simply refuse to publish if it goes 'tits up'...Hopefully see you mid afternoon 🥸
Nice one tom loving the hat very good informative video keep it up
Cheers matey
Hi Tom just subscribed great video will have to give circles a go especially for the tings am down at new milton couple times a year will have to make time to come to the shop tight lines
Glad you liked the video. Hope to see you in the shop at some point 😀

A very interesting and informative video as always, pity there were no rockling to show as they are lovely
I need to do a rockling dedicated video clearly. 😉
Of course...but bear in mind I am the original Jonah so don't expect it to be a classic ...Mr Allner is coming too 😁
Great vlog yet again Tom , we're they 2/0 circle hooks 🪝 you were using , I'm the same as you I use 4/0 circle on the top hook on a pennell , keep them vlogs coming Tom , defo back down to my home to hampshire in April staying Southampton, but will be visiting family in Barton on sea , and I will definitely make up something so I can pop in and get some gear from the shop while I'm down there , as you have such an understanding wife any tips on what excuse I can come up with to say I've got to go to Christchurch.. oh and while I'm here I might aswel have a quick look in the tackle shop lol .... jules 👍
🤣🤣 I'll put my thinking hat on, I'll come up with an excuse for you!
Yes they were 2/0 Cox & Rawle Mutu circles.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 ty Tom 🤣🤣 forever grateful if you could come up with a plan lol lol , stay safe and enjoy that home cooking 👍
All I know is ... what ever hook your using check the point every time you reel in ! And if it's not able to dig in your thumb nail with no pressure! Sharpen it or change the rig ! The best rig with the best bait means nothing if your hooks blunt ! I personally think the strength off the tide should make a difference off which hook you use .. big tides the fish hit the bait and a circle nails the fish ! J hooks for slack tides as the fish are more mouthing the bait.
Absolutely! No point having a rusty blunt hook on!
I'm even that lucky I can get my Mrs to go to your shop and get the bait and bring it to me where im fishing m8 🎣🐟👍
Ok, you win... 🤣🤣
Great Video and fishing Tom- will you be getting local fishing ‘expert’ Chris ‘Bradders’ Bradford out with you soon? 🎣
Ha ha! I can't afford his royalty fees sadly!
Very very Good, fished a club comp last week and was hope for Sizable waiting but unfortunately they were all small….
I was using luminous beads …. But now I’ve come to the conclusion that they were attracting the smaller fish first…..???
Any thoughts on catching the bigger ones.
I’ve taken off the beads for the next Comp.
Did you use flapper rigs.
Cheers Matt.
I use lumi beads quite a lot, but don't think they attract small fish rather than bigger ones. Using larger baits can help pick out larger fish, but whiting are a nuisance at times, even undersized whiting will snaffle a larger bait.
Hi Tom i use circles when i go flat fish fishing .. I find they are not so deep hooked
Flatties are certainly one of the worst for getting deep hooked, so circles seem to make sense for them. How do you get on putting worms on them?
Sizable waiting…🤣🤣🤣 Whiting.
I knew what you meant 😅
tom that was a fun video mate , your deffo as mad as a box of frogs chap " no offense " im on the bristol channel and use circle hooks a lot same results as you mostly lip hook , great channel and subbed keep up the great work tom take care chap
Thanks mate 😁 glad you liked the video. Definitely need to use more circles this year again I think.
What about semi circular hooks Tom? Could you try them??
Certainly worth a try too. I use a lot of wormer and chinu patterns which are similar to a circle but without the defining 90° point.
Good stuff as always Tom. I use Circles a lot these days especially when the hounds arrive, I also crush the barb and have had both rod go at the same time and left one while sorting the other and not yet lost a fish even if the line is slack for quite some time.
Of course the next question is snell or blood knot for the circle? I always use a snell knot with the line coming out of the front of the eye because if you make a circle with your thumb and forefinger it will almost always hook your thumb when you pull the line through where as a blood knot can flip straight out, although not sure what difference this makes on a fish unless it has no manners and eats with it's mouth open.
About to ask the same question Jim but you beat me to it.
I was thinking about barbless whilst I was fishing. As you say a hooked fish on a circle so rarely comes off. I'll have a go snelling next time. I often use the rapala knot too to allow free movement of the circle.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 Rapala knot is a decent choice for a circles movement. I feel the snell helps incorporate the snood into the curve of the hook allowing it to slide out of the back of a larger mouth and into the scissors of the jaw. If I need to tie up on the beach and I as usual have forgotten my glasses I'll slip the hook on the line and tie an overhand loop knot which allows movement and hasn't failed me...... yet :)
@@jimcampbell2673 great idea, will try that too. Thanks mate.
Very interesting video, what rod was the yellow one thatyou were using?
That's my Veret Supernova.
why do you hold your rod like a course angler when reeling in, or is there not enough weight for you to need to move your hand up the rod
Must be the inner coarse angler in me! Lol
Just the way I find most comfortable I guess.
@Phil Carpenter I must confess I hadn't put any thought into it. I just hold a rod as I see fit and comfortable! Don't think there's any right and wrongs here.
Are these two hooks equally suited to all species or are some not suited to one or the other, say flat fish like plaice or flounder which mostly I see
Rigged with j hooks.
Also is size relevant to this ? Has a size 1 j hook the same ability as a size 1 circle do we use a different ratio? As in lure fishing when a single hook would be a completely different size to a treble???…
Hi Martin.
I'm quite particular with hook patterns and will pick different patterns depending on what bait I'm using and what the target species is. Having said that "bread and butter" fish like dogs and whiting are pretty simple so are good targets when experimenting with different hooks.
Much like the lure singles I always fish my circle hooks larger than my js.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 hi Tom
Video link below is well worth a look if you have 40min spare time (hard to imagine)
Circle and j hook used . Very interesting, lovely location and nice block…
Thankyou again for your thought provoking videos

Doh I feel like a complete idiot watching this. All the squid I’ve thrown away over the years because people always told me pink squid was pants. Not throwing it away anymore 👍
Be original pal, you are imitating Greame, from TA FISHING
Having never watched an episode of TA FISHING I'll take that comment with a pinch of salt. But thanks anyway. I presume your videos are totally original?
