Will all due respect, we are a variety fishing show, we represent all forms of fishing. The benefit of it being on RU-vid, if they don't like it, they can simply close the video and move on. We have had over 13,000 subscribers in under 2 years, over 300,000 viewers a month. Since doing these rock fishing videos we have been inundated with how successful beginners have found it. Why go so complicated about a technique when if it is already catching fish, what is the point in changing it? Mike
Light rod fishing is so much more fun than heavy gear. And more versatile. I use it for almost all species in fresh and saltwater for 10+ years now. Record is a 14 kg pike on light tackle.
I think you might have missed the point.It was an instructional to show people about LRF,which is absolutely no different to general light tackle spinning that anglers have done for 50 years. But the rubber worms/grubs are relatively new for inshore fishing. We had a couple of hours at the end of the trip to catch...and did.You can catch 40 4lb Pollock on a good day in Ireland. What's the point of showing all the fish, but not the method to catch them ?
luke williams It will probably be fine, just be wary of the tip when you are transporting the rod. My tip broke on my lrf rod, but just got a saw and took it down to the next ring and now it's helped to strengthen the rod. - Mike
ok. thats a pain in the ass. seen the repair video tho looks like new.. almost lol.i have just started fishing and find it adictive cant stop buying lures the wife isnt happy haha
Cracking show guys,can you tell me where Paul buys his lures,ive been unable 2 rock fish for a lot of years because of serious back trouble but I think I cud fish a beach or 2
Ally Fitzsimmons Why not ask Paul as he runs a B&B place on the Beara in Ireland.Dromagowlane House.He has a website.I am sure he will give you some information.
+Ally Fitzsimmons They have a good range of lures at Bobco.co.uk. A couple of other places you can try is sports direct & decathlon. I hope this helps.
Both are probably out of production now.My Shimano is about 25 years old.You just need to look for similar models.I think Paul,the shore guide ,did say he bought his from China,via the internet ?
Over here in Australia you either have Heavy Rock Fishing or SUPER HEAVY Rock fishing. There is no light rock fishing, or at least I've never seen anyone do it. They always have a massive rod with live baits or a medium rod to catch those live baits.
Really like the show. I'm keen to try LRF, I live near reading do you know any fishing spots to try the technic near by? I'm happy to drive 1 or 2 hours. Thanks for the show!!
It's cool seeing a texas rig used in saltwater. I've been using them for large mouth bass for years but i'm definetly going to try them out the next time I hit the salt
dear graeme, hope i spell it out correctly, loves all your videos since day one i'd subcribed your channel. love your tips and advice on tackles and safety. looking forward for every single video TAFishing uploads. sometimes i even watch your video countless of times. true fisherman and awesome releases too. from boat to reef, shore to rocks, please dont stop posting videos. and it would be perfect if you could tell the title of the sountrack on 17:50 onwards. and lastly, you guys are simply amazing! Totally Awesome Fan from Singapore :)
Hi, Glad you like the show, thanks for the positive feedback! The song at 17:50 was made for us by a friend as a one off so it isn't available I'm afraid. Keep watching and thanks for commenting.
Great video again guys, unfortunately, I can only do course fishing around where i live. I live inland and not that close to any piers, beaches, or rocks. And I don't drive, but great tips as always. Look forward to tomorrows video :)
Enjoyed the video, very interesting BUT 15lb braid and 10lb mono is HRF not LRF. LRF is using 3 or 4lb flourocarbon and tiny lures, so a little misleading in my opinion, but interesting none the less. Nice one.
First time I've watched your show guys.... let's not be precious about the sport or the methods used.... The whole pinot is to have fun and catch fish :-) .... Enjoyed it and will be watching loads more... Thanks lads :-)
I think this video was made successfuly. Beceause you can understand what is told without speak English. Thanks to you I' ve just learnt how I can prepare a tool for LRF thank you very much.
Graeme and Mike are awesome - totally awesome! Can anyone point me to a channel that's specific to US fishing? Preferably somewhere along the Gulf Coast?
that's good, atleast you now know what LRF is now:-) I notice you using the "rockfish" rods, shame they didn't get a mention, also the lure size could of got a lot smaller (Japanese fake rag worm and tiny jig heads this rod is capable of casting) to pick out the blennies ect would of been good to touch upon for the species hunters amongst us, also the big fish guys like myself that use this method when times are hard, id love to know where he got a fs reel that can cope with braid for under a tenner? if you don't get that right your just going to be un picking tangles, in braid that's a nightmare.as for weights a small running lead be that bullet or even aylesy bomb will do the job, it don't have to go over the hook eye, "the art of fishing" website for a complete run down of bits, catching anything over a few oz on this gear is an absolute blast, when they hit a few pound you might as well be hooked up to a Marlin. amazing sport. well done guys for getting it bang on this time any way!
Great video lots of good info for LRF and what a great guy Paul is, gonna have a try myself keep these videos coming there invaluable to people like me.
Hi mike. A quick question about leaders. I was watching another lrf video and you mentioned 6lb braid with 4lb fluorocarbon leader. I thought the leader always had to be stronger or does this just apply to braid?
Stephen Reid ##### Hi Stephen, yes a lot of people do that. I guess it's down to personal preference and how the conditions are on the day. If you are fishing very snaggy areas then up the fluorocarbon leader strength. If fishing is tough and you are fishing with ultra small jigs then a 4lb fluorocarbon should help entice a bite. Hope that helps. Mike
I love this kind of fishing....I'm learning a lot from your channel guys, best one on RU-vid. Could you recommend an lrf rod and reel please? Thanks guys from the north of Ireland.
zak lia I have used yellow 6lb for dropshot and it's worked fine. However, I recommend using at least 10lb braid minimum as if you snag on a tree root or weed, it's a slim chance getting your lure back. I use 12-16lb braid for my dropshotting depending on what river conditions are like
