Awww Jon, that takes me back to using the bomb with a swing tip! .. = catapulting out 10 tennis sized balls of laced groundbait at (eg) Coombe Abbey or Earlswood, then giving in half an hour plus before you over casted your arsley bomb, then quietly wound in back into the baited area... & adjusting the swing tip 😊. The swing tip is a bit of a horrendous tackle thb, regarding casting at distance etc. But once eventually set correctly, it has magical captivating properties that no quiver tip can compete with 😂 ❤
I've adapted a Shakespeare IN2 TRAVL8 Tele' Glass Holiday Rod into a Bomb/Feeder Rod & it's Just the Job. Swapped the end eye for a screw in quiver tip eye. It's got me some Carp to 8 Lb so far with no bother at all. Cost me a tenner years ago. Glass Tele's are great Leger Rods - Don't always fall for the Dearer Hype!! I've a couple of Dearer Feeder rods, but this one is just as good!!
Great video, good tips. I’ve often fished that lake and sometimes they take a while to find at any time of year but the video helped me understand the value of creeping towards them instead of crashing in to the same spot all day.
Nice video Jon. I'll be trying the different length hook lengths tomorrow. Those type are awesome. I'm landing double figure fish on 0.11! What corn manafacturer would you say was best?
Jon. What are the suggested line rating for the 30 gram bomb rod you were using please buddy. Cracking video mate, nice to see you settle with Matrix now.
Great vid Jon lot's of information but can you please explain the benefits of different hook lengths please l would think with a pop-up to Pop it up more but what about bottom baits Cheers mate.
You could us a rubber stop behind the swivel and knot if you wanted, but Jon's personal preference is to use the swivel protector bead that covers the knot. 👍
another great video, its a great little lake
Nice to see the bomb and bead/corn used to such good effect. Well done Jon. Nice one.
great video Jon, plenty of useful advise as always, great action on that rod.many thanks as always keep safe.
Love the idea with the shot on the hook length to vary depth, another great tip thank you.

Glad it was helpful!

Brilliant m8
Do like fishing Grats Jon some lovely tench in there too and tend to catch them quite early in the season another great video too mate 👍
Jon. What are the suggested line rating for the 30 gram bomb rod you were using please buddy. Cracking video mate, nice to see you settle with Matrix now.
We don't have a line rating on this rod, but is best suited with 4-8lb lines.
Great vid Jon lot's of information but can you please explain the benefits of different hook lengths please l would think with a pop-up to Pop it up more but what about bottom baits Cheers mate.
Any chance of a video on those smart looking twizzled hairs?
Would you use the bomb on a snake lake of 16m across?
Mantab yes 👍
Least you were safe at this moment from miss hit golf balls fishing that peg , its brolly up when the golfers are back or be very quick ducking
Hi Jon what is the strength rating on the quick change swivel
We don't have a strength rating on the swivels, but it is much higher than any line you would use with them. 👍
Noticed you have tied the bait boyonets different than the hair rig video Jon they're all on a loop any reason
I’d rather watch Jon rather Jamie any day regarding mainstream manufacturers selling something or promoting products !
Hi jON i ENDED the last lock down fishing the method feeder in the margins is that new or is is just me & caught loads its instant bolt & go ???
It’s not new but it’s a killer method!
Shhhh, don't tell everyone! That's a very good method on its day...
Swivel protector bead? why not just use a float stop?
You could us a rubber stop behind the swivel and knot if you wanted, but Jon's personal preference is to use the swivel protector bead that covers the knot. 👍
6mins 26 3lb wha lol hmmmm
Chuck it and chance it. 👍🍌
