Ever wondered how your rig looks underwater? How much does your bait spread out when spodding?Does your marker float scare the fish. Rob Hughes delves below the surface to help answer lots of common questions like these in a new series - Understanding Underwater. In this first episode, Rob pays a visit to RK Leisure's renowned Wraysbury to show you his findings, looking at his pop-up rig, spod mix, different marker floats and how his mainline looks like while fishing what is a very weedy South Lake.

Very informative video, a great watch. Shame about the audio levels, absolutely shocking, voice is quiet and then suddenly booming loud music, basics to get right.

Not the cleverest idea wearing waders in a boat

@lewisglenn2614 4 года назад

My thoughts exactly

@Brian-rp6kq 4 года назад

I heard if you lift your feet up in the water you won’t sink but I’m not willing to try it! A lot of the videos you see the people are wearing waders out in boats I really don’t get it.

@fishinmalarkey9830 4 года назад

When waders fill with water They weigh no more or less than your clothes because water weighs the same in water regardless. Its only heavy when you get out of the water

@1bore2 4 года назад

look on youtube there load videos of duck hunters showing that u float if u lift yr feet up and even if yr waders fill with water u can still swim ok

@RobHughesTV 4 года назад

Thanks for the safety advice. I've spent a reasonable amount of time in boats and have a fair amount of experience. These were belted gore tex breathable stocking foot waders. Loads of anglers wear them in boats. Fly anglers and pred anglers especially and very frequently. You'll also have seen a life jacket as well..... but thanks for the input. Did you enjoy the film.

Like to see what a chod does when cast out feel for a donk but with foam on the hook 👍

@chrisjones3962 4 года назад

Great vid very informative 👍 do you think carp actually see colour or is it more the contrast of you’re hookbait depending on the colour of the lake bed and water?

@DynamiteBaitsTV 4 года назад

hi Chris a lot of it does come down to contrasting colours, the same for lure fishing in different coloured water

@chrisc475 4 года назад

Love your videos Rob. I'm getting back into fishing after a long break and always seek out your content as I'm sure to get some brilliant insights, they really help.

@Thegasman-hc3zz 4 года назад

Loved it. Be interested to see different leaders on the bottom. And also the large pva bag stems that are in vogue. I worry they will land funny and leave your line sticking up at an odd angle.

People chuck 10 spods out thinking they have put a bit out. Just shows how much you actually need

@KarimCarper 4 года назад

Lee Litchfield when he put 5 Spods out you couldn’t see hardly any bait, so imagine if the lake is boilie and pellet only you will need to spom out way more

@Brian-rp6kq 4 года назад

@royclose946 4 года назад

Very interesting excellent content think that's the difference between catching n not catching

@arronpreston5536 4 года назад

Hi, I've got a question and it hasn't been answered as far as I'm aware!. Let me see if i can word this correct, so when your spodding is there any conditions where the bait drifts away during its way down? So when its flat calm we all know your bait travels straight down and spreads out the deeper the water. But would undertow be worth thinking about on a windy day? And will the bait you using make a difference? For example 2mm pellet will sink alot slower than a boilie so will it drift further away?

@davidshaw442 4 года назад

I'd imagine in choppy conditions your spoddy will drift slightly..

@RobHughesTV 4 года назад

Depends on the bait mainly but I'll look at this next time we're out. Heavy stuff is not affected.

@arronpreston5536 4 года назад

@@RobHughesTV ok thank you love the underwater videos mate so educational and have certainly improved my catch rate🎣🎣 tight lines

@matthewcadle7200 2 года назад

Very good footage, but has made some simple things out to be a drama. Its carp fishing, sometimes you catch if they are hungry, other times you don't. You can over think fishing so so so much. But what ever floats you boat. Happy clubbing season :)

@alexfox9933 4 года назад

So use black foam in clear water because it's the most visable but use a black marker float in clear water because it's the least visable? There's just no answer is there aha

@DynamiteBaitsTV 4 года назад

the marker float tip from rob was more about not spooking the fish too much when using it at the start of your session

@RobHughesTV 4 года назад

Good point. However to clarify, black is harder to see from distance as it blends in, but when you get closer to it it does stand out, as will the others. I think black zigs are easier to pick out than yellow when close. Plus remember the marker float tips are day-glo. The other thing to consider with zigs is that the fish will usually be looking up at them and it silhouettes better when seen from below. Red zigs work very well too which also confirms that the red end stands out more under water.

@alexfox9933 4 года назад

@carlos777uk 4 года назад

While this interesting, it just frustrates me that there's so much weed in my local lake that, without perfect planning, I'm likely to just be sat in a place I won't catch anything. In fact, it begs the question: why don't more of us simply use a controller float and put bait mid-water where it's completely visible and out of weed?!

loved the video Rob, 18 years ago I used to train beginner divers at wraysbury on a weekend but wasn't in to fishing at the time. I'm astounded by the visibility you have there as most of the time you were lucky to have anything more than a metre to see in front of you. this was brilliant when you did the rescue diver courses as most people had done their other courses abroad and never had to deal with the conditions in wraysbury

@DynamiteBaitsTV 4 года назад

hi Dave, Tel is very much still on the team. He talks a lot about which Dynamite products he uses and how he uses it in some of his latest ESP videos so to cover the same topics again would be a bit pointless. Having said that we may be featuring Tel in one of our videos soon. he's always very busy campaigning his waters. :)

I do try to take up your advice Rob, but, after cast 4 or 5 with the marker trying to find that flat spot I usually get a gob full from other carpers on the lake for disturbing and spooking, I can never seem to win.

Most likely covid carpers that don't know what they're doing you cast as many times as u like to find your spot ur session you paid to be there crack on! And good luck on your angling!

@suehall2620 4 года назад

Thank you Rob for a very informative and detailed video. I’ve only been fishing for 18months but am already landing some very nice carp but probably more by luck than judgement. This video has given me an insight into the importance of leading about and finding ‘the’ spot and I think I have more confidence and a better understanding of how to do it now, too many fish lost in the last few weeks in very weedy lakes! My partner will be delighted that I’m ready to move onto this skill, slowly slowly for me 👍🏻😁

@karlc152 4 года назад

I would like to see how chod rigs are presented when fishing at range and slack lines are not an option, particularly if you are fishing at range where there is a lot of undertow. At what range is sufficient for the line angle to be acute enough to present a chod rig and how slack do the lines need to be? Is a chod rig even fishable when the tows are too strong and putting bows in the line etc? Be interesting to see how and if undertow effects line lay.

thanks for the comments Karl I think rob is planning to cover this in the next couple of Understanding Underwater vids including bite indication and slack and tight lines.
