Hi Phil, This was a really good informative short video. I liked that you didn't try to plug expensive rods at the start. That gave the flavour for the rest of the video from the get go. Super advice on using a fingerstall too. In windy conditions i wouldn't use braid though due to wind knots. Stevie in Fife.
One very basic rule that I always say to newcomers is to fish when it suits the fish and not when it suits you. The peak times for fish to feed are around 2-4 hours long so find out when they are. You wouldn't stand on any street corner and hope a bus came long would you? You would check out the routes and get yourself a timetable, then you would be in the right spot and you would be there at the right time. If you are thinking of starting then go for it as this is a fascinating sport and you never stop learning.
