Absolutely brilliant presentation hayden loved it thank you very much i have been fishing for 40 years pole and all types of rod fishing feeder waggler etc etc i have never fished a whip i went straight out to the local tackle shop after watching your video and bought 3 whips 3,5,9 metres must say i really enjoyed this video hats off to you hayden great video top class presentation hayden i am now a subscriber well done and thank you ALien
I first used a whip back in 1976, it was a 6m Shakespeare fibreglass job with a spliced top section. Poles were in their infancy, I don't think anything longer than 10m was available to the average angler and were very heavy, very expensive and were rarely used in Britain at the time, well not in my neck of the woods. The whip was a new but perfect team method (as it turned out) for the venue I fished and I had a lot of success with it for while till others cottoned on to what I was doing! I've not fished for almost 20 years now but I'm going on Wednesday hoping to catch a good bag of silvers. Having just watched your video I've now added my Daiwa Harrier whip to my holdall and I can't wait to use it again. Thanks for the inspiration, I can hardly wait!
@@BobbleTv A quick update. Got to the fishery last Wednesday and decided to give it an hour on the waggler just to see what the stamp of fish was like before setting up the whip. First fish a 4ozs roach, great I thought, next cast a 7lbs carp! The whip stayed in my holdall! I ended up with nearly 20lbs of silvers, mainly decent skimmers. No more carp though. Not bad for my 1st session in almost 20 years, I really enjoyed it despite making a few schoolboy errors!
Another excellent video, you have got the presentation just right, constant explanation, without ever repeating yourself.The channel is quickly becoming my favourite on You Tube..
Ex Pop Owner Not sure whether or not sensas have brought out a new range as I must have had mine for quite a few years. They do only come with a solid flick tip but I use a no.1 section off an old pole telescoped into the 3rd joint to create a hollow tip for elastication. And yes, always us loop to loop
Excellent videos. What make of line would you use for fishing high up in the water and would it be different from fishing the waggler at 5 meters. Would you use a line like Drennan Float Fish for high up and a sinking mono for a deeper rig? Thanks.
What would you use on the whip regarding my comment above. Would you use a sinking line for the waggler fishing at full depth but a floating line whilst fishing up in the water. Thanks.
Dave Horban To be honest I just use Guru N gauge, I'm not too concerned how the line behaves as I'm expecting bites fairly quickly on the whip, Guru N gauge works well in all whip fishing applications in my opinion so it's just something I'm confident in using from both a durability and presentation aspect
Hi you said on your 5m pole you had elastic what length line would you have as whip fishing is to hand. Also for small fish would you bump them off with elastic cheers
Thanks for taking the time to comment, we have plenty more whip fishing video ideas to do so we will see what can be done. A two hour video may be a bit of a tall order but a shorter, real time video might be something we look into doing
You say Sunrise Lakes is a commercial fishery but your box seems to be in the water, are there no platforms? I ask this because fishing a 2 metre whip from a platform may not be the same as fishing from your position.
Ex Pop Owner There are platforms on some pegs on the Match lake where this was filmed but not in the the area of the lake where we were fishing. Due to the water level being down slightly I decided to set up in the water to get the keepnet into deeper water and to give me a bit more range with the short whips to make life easier. If fishing from some platforms you will be out into the lake and deeper water in most cases so short whips would still work perfectly well. Cheers for watching and the comment also

Thanks for taking the time to comment. Much appreciated and we have plenty more videos lined up on some more natural venues in the next few weeks
good to see simple methods work I also remember this rig from the 70s
This guy is brilliant, very good explanation of all aspect, well done.
Richard Barrett cheers rich
Nice bit of fishing
In response to your comment Ross, the whips that I use are Team Daiwa speed whips in the shorter lengths and the 5m one being a Sensas Alborella
Cannot see a Sensas Alborella Record 450 anywhere, the only whips I have seen have solid tips.
Also do you use loop to loop for your hooklengths?

Whip fishing is great and easy
Silver fish fishing is better than any other I think
Great video Hayden Thanks the box your useing with the winders in which box is it .Thanks again

Dave Horban Cheers for the comment mate, for me it's always Daiwa TDR for all running line work regardless of distance or depth

It's the same as normal whip fishing the elestics just in case you hook a bigger fish bit of a buffer
Thanks so do you think 8s elastic is best cheers
How long is the hook length on the 5m whip please?
What type of whips do you use hayden ?
Copied from Hayden's posts:-"the whips that I use are Team Daiwa speed whips in the shorter lengths and the 5m one being a Sensas Alborella"
hi any chance of a real time couple of hours fishing thanx for the vids very informative

Chub fishing in winter
Take it u want chub video think it will be next winter now
excellent video. why don't you try the brilliant whip wagglers available from H-bomb floats on ebay, instead of that big clumsy thing
we might use them in a future video...if the guy that makes them sends us some...we will try them out
