You know when you have one of those lightbulb moments and realise you’ve been doing it wrong for years 😂 This has been a most informative and embarrassing video all rolled into one, so thank you Tom. Still, most enjoyable indeed, please don’t stop sharing your adventures mate.
Ha ha, brilliant, I'm glad I've helped. Let me guess... bait too big for the pop up? I reckon 90% of people fall into that trap, so don't feel embarrassed.
You took the words right out of my mouth Christravis3270! I've been fishing since I was about 5 and I'm over 70 now and I'm so embarrassed that I never took the time to think things through! I have been complacent in my "I've always fished this way" to even consider an alternative! -that's about to change.
I'm glad I've given you some food for thought. I hope you have a dabble with it and catch a few fish.
Another very informative and jolly video certainly worth the wait
Looking forward to the hound hunt video from Friday
Thanks matey
Great to see you back! Another awesome video. Nice one Tom
Thanks dude
Really enjoyed the video Tom fun and packed with great tips and things to try ...thanks take care and tight lines 👍🎣🎣
Thanks mate, glad you liked it.
Great videos Tom. Some of the best fishing content out there. Well done.
Thank you, that's great to hear.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 You should do a video on the pop up rig. Only the carp version seems to be on UA-cam. I'm struggling to understand how that rig doesn't tangle with 3ft snoods.
Great video. Like your pop up rig, can see it working on some of my local beaches 👍🎣
Thanks mate. Give it a go, it's quite universal this one .
Really enjoyed that! Looked like a lovely fun session 😁
Thanks Ben. This style of fishing is one of my favourites. Nice and light and easy and usually coincides with good weather. Happy days!
Where have you been Tom?! Missed the videos mate massively! Nice to have you back posting educational videos again mate 👌💪
Sorry mate! Life has got a bit busy (in a good way thankfully!) and fishing sadly has been curtailed! Only a temporary hitch hopefully!
So glad you're back we got very worried about you.
Ha ha! Thank you for your concern! Sometimes life gets in the way of fishing. Most frustrating!
Very well presented and informative vid.
Thank you, glad you liked it :-)
Well done Tom. Reminds me of catching mackerel at West Bexington when we last visited the UK 😊 Winter in NZ south island now, time to concentrate on Trout 🐟 Will be over in the UK in August....
I always chuckle to myself that we prize mackerel so highly in this country, but around your side of the globe it's treated purely as bait and not food.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 I always liked English Mackerel. Have you ever caught a Kahawai in NZ, Tom? They taste very similar to your Mackerel.
@@iangraham1505 I haven't matey. What are they like?
Great summer vid….😎😎
Thanks mate
Top vid as usual TB.. 👌
Thank you sir.
Hi, loved the video and nice to see a multitude of species! I never done pop up fishing before so I ordered all the bits and tried my best to make the rig but I went wrong somewhere and also managed to tangle everything beyond repair immediately afterwards. I'm just wondering if you could make a tutorial making this rig whenever you may get the chance? It would be a tremendous help. Also if you have any tips on preventing the long snoods from tangling, I used the rig foam to store them but I found that the minute I moved everything just went into a mess. Thank you!
Hi mate (Sorry for late reply!). I must do a video for this rig, that's a good idea.
Tangles are to be expected with longer lighter rigs, but the more you use them the more you'll get used to them and start to minimise the tangles.
Great session Tom it's the lucky pink hat lol
Always the lucky pink hat! lol
Excellent, could easily see me combining that with BBQ duties on the beach at the end of a summer’s day 😉
Now that is an excellent idea! Got to make the most of great weather, great beaches and great fishing :-)
First time watching your video nice to see how pop ups work .I wonder why some of the other u tube anglers don't watch each others vids as some still stick to the old half a mackerel on 30lb line then blank !
Glad you liked it.
I guess we all have different goals from our fishing. I'm sure the half a mackerel guys will eventually bump into something big that'll make it all worth while. I'm a bit too impatient for that and like to make sure I catch fish every time I go though!
Been a while, but that was worth the wait. Another great vid, even if we didn’t recognise the host 😂
Thanks mate. I'll wear a name badge next time.
Great video well explained, Thanks Tom. What is the make of your bait stand i like the idea of getting bait and hooks off the beach where dogs might get too it.
It's a Stonfo Bait Station and a Preston Pro Tripod. Easily my favourite bit of kit! Links should be in the description.
I lied, link isn't in the description! 😅 Sorry! Here's link anyway:
christchurchanglingcentre.co.uk/accessories/bait_stations/stonfo-bait-station-en/
Tom have you ever put a tiny plaice back out as a live bait for rays or hounds ? Just thinking the pop up would stop them burying themself in the sand ..
I haven't tried that mate. It would have to be an enormous pop up to hold a fish up too!
Hi Tom just wondering how you keep your pop ups in place ie so they don't slide down to the hook during casting,,love your posts keep them coming, as and when you get chance.
Hi mate. These pop ups are self gripping, so they'll stay put where you want them but can be easily adjusted up and down the line if needed.
V.much enjoyed watching your fishing secession at Southbourne. Gave me a good idea of what to expect when I start fishing, as will be going to Southbourne and Hengistbury Beaches myself. Can you tell me, what is the gold coloured rod and reel combination you're using, also what is your main line please?
Very helpful thanks, I'm going to try the rig. Please can you let me know what breaking strain lines you used for snood and mainline in lbs (don't really understand what you meant by .25) 😂
Hi mate.
.25 refers to the diameter of the line, so this line was 0.25mm thick. All good lines will have the diameter clearly stated on the pack, so it's just a case of having a look. If it doesn't state the diameter... don't buy it! lol
Buying line by b/s is incorrect, and sadly something that the tackle trade in the UK has mistaught everyone for far too long! I believe in trying to teach people properly, so please excuse me if I stick to my guns on this one!
Hi, just catching up on your vids as they’re always quality and really informative. I’m getting ready for the summer fishing and a trip down south. Might seem a daft question but is there any reason why this type of pop up rig would not be appropriate for Chesil or would it only work on certain marks? Thanks for your content, hints and tips they’re always useful and are really appreciated.
Hi mate. I use this rig on a lot of different venues, especially chesil! Definitely worth trying.
Nice videos to be fair, do you know if the big groin off heigbury head is ok to fish off now with words been done so on? one of the Peterborough guys) coming up soon so thought I’d ask.
Sadly the groyne is still shut off and looks like it will be for a while yet.
Pop up rigs? Old debate, but why when trying to get line up in higher water do we use fluorocarbon which is know for its sinking properties. Why not mono or one of the floating lines from freshwater fishing….
Anyway a lovely video, incredibly informative and inspiring 👍
By the way I was there in May and that weed was horrendous! It was like over cooked spinach what was it? Spent more time cleaning line than fishing…
Hi matey, glad you bought this up as it's a fascinating subject I think. On paper you are absolutely right, fluorocarbon sinks faster than mono, however in real life terms, especially when using lines as light as we are here, it makes no difference. We've been using fluorocarbons for this style of fishing for decades now and they work just fine. That doesn't really answer the question of why though! Which is an odd one as I'm not 100% sure why I do! lol
I have a lot of confidence in fluoro, I always have, so this plays a big part in it (always use things you're confident in), I also find it tangles less than mono, fine monos are almost too soft at times and will tangle more. You can throw in the argument that fluorocarbon is more "invisible" in water than mono, but if I'm really honest I don't think matters in this country! I don't think you'd notice a difference in catch rates if you fished one rig with mono and one with fluoro, so I'd recommend going with whatever you're confident with (just not Amnesia. Never Amnesia!).
Two weeks ago I was fishing there and I locked eyes with a seal about 4ft from the beach. Weed was horrendous.
Awesome to see the seal, although sometimes that doesn't help with the fishing! The weed was awful for a few weeks, I'm very glad it's better now!
Great video. You mention the snood line, but what are you using for the body and the connections from the body to the snoods? Thanks
Hi George.
So my rig body here was a 0.55 mono and I was using size 20 match swivels to connect the snoods:

Hello tom when are you gonna do a next video I enjoy watching your videos meet you in the shop not to long ago and you gave me stickers thank you
Great video, you could have your own BBC programme. Have you ever fished the Yuki rods? I've been fishing too heavy for too long and looking for something lighter. What would you personally recommend as a lighter quivertip style rod capable of casting a 4oz in the £100 to £150 price range please?
Ha ha! Not sure the BBC can afford me!
I've used a few of the Yuki rods, but not many in that catagory.
If you want a mutitip quiver tip style rod the Tronixpro Bansai multi Tip will fit nicely into that price bracket. Have a look at the Vercelli Veyron too, not a quiver tip rod but does have a very fine hybrid tip with excellent bite detection, this makes an excellent allrounder for lighter beach fishing.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 Excellent, thanks for your advice. do you stock them?
@@paulpaula2011 I have the Veyron in stock currently but out of the Quiver.
Hi can I ask what orange line you have on your reel? I love it. And the videos r great.👌🏻
Glad you like the vids mate. The orange line is Tronixpro Blaze in 0.25.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 thanks for the reply. Il get on to that. Wishing you all the best. 👍🏻
Great video, very informative about the pop up rig, I will give that a go. That Eclessio looks superb, do you stock them pls, if not where did you get it from and will I have to sell a kidney to buy one please🧐?
Sadly two kidneys! Also part of a recently discontinued range.
Many thanks for your reply, I did wonder. I currently use some Zziplex Profiles and Daiwa Tournament Surf HTS for the long and light stuff, but, loved the look of the Veret, could you recommend a similar style new rod pls?
@@bassblanker5359 I you like good quality rods then definitely check out the Tronixpro Competition Match range. The ST would be similar to the rod I'm using here and would make a perfect light beach rod with a lovely soft sensitive tip.
Many thanks, I will take a look.
Great vid! Out of interest what snood line do you like in 30 or 40lb? I’m using amnesia clear at the moment and I don’t like the way it knots. Thanks
Check put the maxima chameleon. My favourite heavy snood line. Nothing ties as good a knot as that line. I use the 0.50 mostly.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 thank you very much
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 nice verets btw, I’ve always fancied one but they seem like rocking horse pop to get hold of
@@tomosedwards8369 yeah sadly so. Best rods I've ever used, just wish they were a better company to deal with.
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 yeah it is a shame! I’d love to be able to buy one some day. Maybe they will pull their fingers out in the future. In the mean time il enjoy watching you catch on them 👍😀
Would that work on chesil on a 10ft rig body at 50 yards
Absolutely. It'll work on nearly any beach where there are fish feeding off the bottom. A long and light urfe rig with a good sized pop up on the end can work wonders on chesil too. That will allow you to go as long as you need with the rig.
Haven’t heard from you in a while and missing the videos. Is all well?
Sorry for the absense! I've hung my head in shame the last few months!
Hi, where is this spot?
Sorry for late reply. This is Southbourne beach...

Come on Tom, it’s time for another video buddy. If it means I nip down and do a few hours behind the counter, then so be it 👍🏻
I had 2 gurnards the last 2 evenings exactly where you are in this video
They really are beautiful things, one of my favourite summer visitors!
@@christchurchanglingcentre5428 I suppose you could use a set of old feathers and make a pop up rig instead of using bait would that work ?
A really good informative video. What a smashing little undulate. Looking forward to the next video. Tight lines to you and all your subscribers
Thanks Andy
