Great Video, glad to see you carrying on the great Brum tradition of Zander angling, remember working with Ray Armstrong many moons ago, great bloke and angler. 👌🎣🎣💚
Inspirational video and a fantastic fish to go with it - well done on your PB. I'm going to follow your guidance on my very first target for Zander next week.
That was interesting, really enjoyed that and very informative. Like the idea of the trace, might be an idea to use a titanium lure trace for the uptrace then, i’ll look into that.Tight lines
Cracking fish matey. I’ve never had a go at fishing for zander, but I’ve just kitted myself out and I’m putting in some sessions in the coming weeks. You’ve inspired me, great video and some great tips. Keep them coming 🎣
Nice video mate.. i fish that area for zed.. started using single circle hooks for zed a few seasons ago.. definitely improved hookup rate.. use them for pike now.. 100% better and kinder to fish.. nets and hands.. tight lines.. 👌
As you’ve extended the trace with braid won’t it take longer to get a notification on your rod as the fish can swim nearly 2-3 foot in each direction before coming into contact with the lead. With a Small roach and a pike could get deep hooked, have you had many ?
This doesnt happen as the rig is running and not fixed, i dont get any deep hooked fish as i always hit bites straight away as soon as i see indication on the tip.
That was a brilliant vid I’ve fished dead’s for zeds for a good couple of decades and you’ve given some good tips there I normally fish canals for them midlands had them into double and on lures my fave fish Shame about electro fishing Thank for sharing 👍🏼🍺tight lines 🎣
There’s a big feature on the Zander cull in the angling times coming up week ending 17th this month exclusive info my pal done lot of work to stop the cull i supplied the pics
That's a cracking idea with the way you tie your traces mate. Like you point out, I am forever wasting 12-18 inches of wire after landing fish or trolleys.
