- A short day session sees Harry take a lightweight approach with his tackle as he goes for a wander around Suffolk Water Park. Finding the fish quickly and in the upper layers, Harry opts for Zig tactics and starts catching carp when no-one else is.

As much as a like watching mark, Harry is more like most of normal anglers out there and easier to watch 🔥🔫
they both have their qualities, Harry is very down to earth
@@fox_international mp
Did you use the 'duck pole'.
Lol.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’ve never tried a zig but why not a float rig in this situation?
Hi there,
Where can I buy the pva ties/inserts
Can’t get them anywhere??
Cheers
Interesting the fixed zig massively out catches the adjustable....
It’s all down to depth and position of the zig. The best thing about the adjustable zig is you can change its depth. All personal preference.
@@5732noel well yeah, obviously. if the fixed zig is doing fish, then you would set the adjustable to the same height, which im sure he did. I think a fixed zig converts more hook ups. line is direct to the lead on a fixed, but there an amount of "give" with an asjustable.
@@Sniffer1111 yeah makes sense, maybe the carp are suspicious of the float also
Can you fish zigs without spodding over the top every 10 mins? If so how effective is fishing the zig without spodding
Yes, single zigs work really well
Thanks for this, I was blanking all day fishing bottom baits and in the last hour I watched this, changed my tactics and caught about 10 minutes later 👌 you hit the nail on the head with why I didn’t like the thought of zig fishing but it does work 🎣
Had a carp from that lake on a adjustable zig last Saturday
Loved the vid Harry can't wait to hit the banks again fella 👍👌😁
Well done harry. I have blanked the last 2 weeks which is annoying after 5 fish in 1 day session 3 weeks ago. I am going to try Zigs next week.
Good luck!
Brilliant vlog Harry had my 1st zig carp of year last week on the adjustable fishing in 21 foot of water deadly tactic wen u get it right well done brother 👍🏻
Well done Paul
Would like to see some of the more we'll known anglers give the big lake a try, think a few nash lads and korda have done a film down there would be a good watch
We'll try and get on there at some point soon, lots of good fish to go at in there!
@@fox_international definitely and there's a few new ones coming through that are already hitting the 30lb mark, potential is sky high
I can’t wait for fishing season here it is April 15th then I can actually start making videos again!!
Hi guys, great video.
I fish a small, silky lake with very low visibility. Would you use unflavoured foam or boost it a bit with flavour, worms or use a pop-up? I heard that in countries as france, Belgium, ... Zigs work better with pop-ups. Do you have any experience with this?
Kind regards
Yo hey guys
Hey
Well done harry, had a few like that (zigs) there 😉
Great video Harry, after watching the footage, I'm more confident in attempting to zig fish
Great video, shows the effectiveness of the zig rig! Could a rotten bottom be used for the lead on the adjustable rig or would that be unsafe for casting?
How many times have we all forgot the alarms
Hi, great video, rods please?? TY
Great video 💪
Thanks 🙏🏼
Hey guys, fairly new to fishing, what’s the deal with reading pressure? What’s considered high, what’s considered low? What apps you using to read this as well?
TIA!
think of it as a sliding scale, as a very general rule for carp fishing class anything below 1005mb as low and anything above 1020 as high.
Do you have any suggestions for a reel for a 10ft Korda rod, my budget is no more than £55 but if I have to I’ll go a bit higher.
I can recommend the okuma inception or a Daiwa ninja if you want a smaller reel
Also from fox the eos reel Are very good for the price
Awesome fishing Harry I only live probably 5 or 6 miles away but never fished there how crazy. stay safe and stay strong.. Gazza
well worth a try!
What is that short rod bag he has got?
Hello Harry! What would you suggest about using zigs when it is a very deep lake?
Adjustable zigs and vary the depth. top third of the water column is the place to start
Brilliant video Harry. Defo getting the zigs out after blanking at the weekend
Best of luck Dave
Awesome Harry .. top carper ..
Great result on a winter’s day!
Awesome great video dude
5:30 nice sound 🤦♂️
hi enjoyed the video im local to suffolk water park be defo trying zigs next time im there
best of luck
@@fox_international thank you
Why is the bottom so important for zig fishing?
Unless the bottom contours like the Alps, I am dubious that the bottom is so important. I generally use adjustables, and in a lake/canal with a fairly uniform depth (where I am fishing), say varying 20%, (example 8' -10'), the fish will congregate at the same depth, relative to THE SURFACE. I ALWAYS cast in and feel the lead down on a fairly tight line. I wait 3-5 minutes for the PVA to melt (with the rod on the rest, baitrunner on, and alarm on, because I have had instant takes, at 2' OFF THE BOTTOM, and unlike Harry, I rely on hearing my alarms!) Then as Harry does, I count up as I let the line off the reel, to check the overall depth. Sometimes before the float appears, I can see the bait hit the surface first. Binoculars help! If I don't see the bait, I do as Harry does...wait for the float to appear and then work DOWNWARDS. The key number I always "record" is the depth as "feet under the surface" not "feet from the bottom."
Whether the actual depth of the water where the carp is swimming is 8' or 10', generally the carp will be at a "fixed point" BELOW THE SURFACE. So one carp could be swimming in 8' of total water, and his mate 10 yards away, could be in 10' of total water, but they will BOTH BE (for example) at aprox. 2' below the surface. Barometric pressure will have the same influence on both fish, which is why multiple and simultaneous bites can occur, once you get the depth below the surface correct.
I change the depths of all three rods frequently (every 15-30 minutes) until I find the right depth under the surface. With such frequent changes, it is easy to lose track of which rod is at what depth!! I use those "people counters" that they use to monitor people in and out of an event or venue. (The little handheld clicker devices). This makes it easy to keep track. I attach them to my buzzers using the fold-out "handle" on the clicker. It is amusing when asked why I have counters on my rods, to reply, "That is the number of fish I have caught on each rod!".....Mmmm 2222 on the left, 5555 on the middle but only 1111 on the right!
I won't bore you all by discussing the best bit of kit for Zig fishing which is the "Deeper sonar device", which can put me on fish in minutes! I rarely use it to spot fish feeding on the bottom. It is the contours/features/depths/weed etc, that are important in that case. However, finding where they are in the water column, can be aided considerably by the use of a sonar device.
Sorry for rattling on...it is much easier with a diagram or a video! I hope this has helped someone out there. 5 years ago, I didn't use Zigs...Now I cannot fish without considering using them. The number of blanks they have prevented is incredible.
What trousers are they you have on Harry?
these ones www.foxint.com/home/product/fox-collection-hd-green-trouser?c=clothing
Harry what are the test curve on your rods
These are 3.25 Explorers
If you use Delkim you can't have problem with alarm 😁
Zigs don’t count
Neither did hair rigs in 1983
