Got these thinking they were the slightly larger Panfish floats ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rJB7cli5f1ofPVGgn80S7Yj4vqwq0gU they work just fine. The smaller size lets me carry more in my tackle box, and the 3 color choices are nice for different lighting conditions, backgrounds, etc. They aren't the most durable things in the world. But, as cheap as they are, it's not heartbreaking to lose one or have to replace a worn one. The price on these fluctuates wildly, from about $9 to almost $16. So, time your buy accordingly.
Yet again another great video 👌👏 ......
נהנה מאוד מין הערוץ דייג שלך.ולומד אמון על דייג קרפיונים תמשיך כך אלוף👍🏻👑👍🏻👏👏👏👏🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🐟🎣🤗❤🤗
Just a thought - love the video
I fish waggler all the time - when plumming up remember to use the same length of float or mark your rod as you would with a pole top kit cos otherwise you could be fishing a lot shallower due to the length of the float 😊
Thats very true, this was a small detail I missed in the video. In the comments section I've tried to make this point clear. Regards, Steve.
You asked for suggestions for future video tutorials, I would really appreciate one on float lift method for tench (or other fish) and how to choose and set up the terminal tackle. Thanks
Hi Phil,
Thanks for the suggestion. I believe Phil Spinks is covering this method in his next Specimen Series, keep your eye on our UA-cam channel very soon.
Regards
Steve.
Great suggestion, I’ve attempted the lift method but when I got bites never really got that lift indication the float still went under so I’d appreciate any help on this also. Tight lines people 👍
Thanks very informative. Always learn something from you.
Hi Michael,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, im glad you're enjoying the videos.

Just bought myself a korum 11ft float set up! Going to give it a go this year. Top tips 👍
He advised using a 13ft rod in this video, makes for easier casting.
Can’t beat a bit of float fishing.
I agree, waggler fishing can be super enjoyable. Regards, Steve.
Great video thank you 😊
Thanks for watching!
Great vid thank you. Fished wagglers for several years before taking a break from angling. We always sunk tip after casting and wind 2-3 turns of handles, never saw a flick like that before I thought it would of lifted line off surface? 👍
Hi Rob,
Thanks for the kind comment, it's such a nice method to fish. Sinking the line by casting past your spot and winding back is a great way to sink your line, the flick just allows this to be done quicker.
Regards
Stephen.
@@AnglingDirectTV I’ll try that next time out with wag. 👍
Excellent tutorial for me I really appreciate it thanks so much:)
Hi Robert,

Took my Grandson out at the weekend to do a bit of Waggler fishing. A lovely winter day out on our local club water. Just a shame it was ruined by a guy a few pegs away complaining he didn't catch on his pole because the young 11 year old lad was making too much noise with his casting as he learned the basics.
That is a shame, at least you managed to get out fishing. Regards, Steve.
He blamed an 11-year-old's casting because he wasn't catching? That's just sad tbh. He probably went home and kicked the cat too.
Excellent video. Learning a lot. Just didn’t catch what you meant by “ line clip” when you cast to a mark? Is it a physical clip or marker on the line?
The line clip is on the spool of the reel. If you put your line in the clip at a set distance it allows you to cast the same distance each time.
What do you do if you have a loaded wiggler for accurate depth ? Also I have seen a lot of people say not to sink line on waggler fishing ?
How do you deal with loads of small silvers having the bait on the drop please? Seem to be catching loads of small tiddlers instead of bigger ones as there in my maggots on the drop! Thanks
This can happen with lots of silvers feeding. You could try feeding bigger baits or bulk your shot closer to the hook, this will sink the hook bait faster and hopefully miss them. Regards, Steve.
On the plumbing section the bigger float used for plumbing was longer wouldn't u have to adjust the depth of the smaller shorter float to get the correct depth when fishing with the smaller float?
That's what I thought.
Would it be right to mark the rod and move the shorter float to the mark on the rod?
Hi Andy,
Great comment, the float was indeed around 1" longer so this should be taken into consideration, a little detail I forgot to mention. When fishing the waggler I usually aim to fish around 2-3" over depth, even with the smaller waggler attached this would be on the bottom however, its certainly something to consider if you want to be super accurate.
Regards
Stephen.
@@BMX__dad That could work, a nice little way to be accurate.
Regards,
Steve.
But the 3g visi wag is longer than the 2g. I didn't see you compensate for that??
Would it be possible to do kit lists of the stuff you use with links. I could find the rod,reel,micro cubes but nothing else. What line,hooks,floats etc do you use. Thanks
It's mad how much angling has changed when a £130 float rod is described as "inexpensive".
People want quality
I have a £10 pound float rod and I’ve had it for 10 years from age of 13 and it’s never broke and I’ve caught 40 pound carp on it but it also great fun for small fish such as silver fish
@@nathansummers6458 yes I believe that but there is better out there and a lot of people want it
@@lewisgregory263 Thanks, Lewis, for responding on behalf of "people". I'm sure the entire angling community are grateful to you for saving them a job.
Hi King,
Apologies if I didn't explain myself correctly, I was showcasing the rod I personally use but referenced it doesn't need to be expensive as long as its nice and light. These days you can get good waggler rods for under £50.
Regards
Stephen.
Hi, what was the exact mainline and hooklength you were using.
on looking at this vid again ,the part on plumbing up ,if you where to put the larger float on , being longer than the one used for fishing to get the depth ,once the shorter float was put back on in place of the longer float ,it would surely make the depth too shallow ,as it would bring the hook off the bottom by the difference in the lengths of the two floats used ,so really the shorter float when put on the line would need raising to the same height as the tip on the larger float ,then you would be fishing too exactly the same depth as when the longer float was used to plumb ,which would be dead depth and not over depth
Hi Ray,

@@AnglingDirectTV hi Stephen thanks for your reply, yeah i would think once plumbed with the larger float being longer in length ,you would need to make note of the top tip on larger float ,then when putting on smaller float as in length ,raise this to mark of top tip of the larger float ,so then would be fishing at the correct depth you plumbed to.
Is there any chance for next vid you could cover fishing short with method feeder, like using under arm cast as example 🤔
Hi Rob,
Thanks for leaving a comment, I'll get this added to the list. Lots of methods to cover, short on the method feeder is something little different as well.
Regards
Stephen.
Im new to match waggler and i want to know few things.
Do you use sinking line, and do you keep your rod tip in water all the time? Tnx
Hi Marko, Yes I use a sinking mainline to help. I keep my rod tip just under the water to help sink the line further. Regards, Steve.
I took it that he was saying you dont necessarily need a £130 rod, as long as its light enough to do the job
I just use a 8ft carp rod 2lb test curve with 8lb main line and 5/6lb hook length, size 12-16 hooks depends on what size I go for, I use that rod or waggler and feeder fishing, it only cost £15 and does the job, cought all sorts on it, it's not too heavey and not too light, biggest I've had on the rod is 15lb
Hi Phil,
Thanks for the comment. That's exactally what I ment, maybe I didn't explain that very well.
Regards
Stephen.
@@AnglingDirectTV No probs mate . Tight Lines
Hi what number stotz do you have at the float? Im struggling to get my visi 5 float to sit correctly.
You could use the rubber float stops, then shot the float as necessary. it doesn't have to be stotz or shot.
hi can you tell me where they drennan visa wagglers you was using and what size was you actually fishing with please
Hi Ray,
Yes thats correct, I was using the Drennan Visi Wagglers in 2.5g to fish with.

Regards
Steve.
@@AnglingDirectTV i tried shotting a 2.5g visi waggler with same stotz used and you need considerably more than 4 no 8s at the float base ,are you sure you used a 2.5g float
@@raycharm8950 absolutely correct ray all the visi wag range take 8 number 8,4 at the base and 4 down the line,this guy could not have been using the visi wag 2,5 gram impossible to get that presentation with the weight he states as i say all the visi wag range take 8 number 8
Which line do you use,sinking or floating?
Hi Milan,
I use the Matrix Horizon X sinking mainline...

Regards
Steve.
What lb Hook length was you using with 4lb mainline ?
I always use a slightly lighter hooklink than my mainline to ensure you never snap the entire rig, I hope this helps. Regards Steve.
What floats are these? I want to buy some
The floats used in the video were the Drennan Vis wagglers they can be found here... www.anglingdirect.co.uk/drennan-visi-wag-5-floats. Regards Steve.
Never use a plummet just use SSG shot on your hook very accurate and much better than a plummet by far
Give us a masterclass on loch erne mate not a frog pond 6' of water 5' of fish 😮
