Thanks very much. Much appreciated 👍👍

Thanks very much Ian 👍

Yea great video mate,you might want to tighten your line after casting for faster bite recognition

@@chrisgosling6129 uptide fishing is all about letting a bow of line out and letting the tide tighten it, if you tighten your line too early you will end up with your lead and bait downtide.

Thanks Jim. Very kind of you to say so. 👍

Hi Robert. You can use a running lead setup for all anchor fishing. Depending on where you are fishing on the boat, you can either fish with a breakaway lead or regular lead. 👍

Many thank for your reply@@whitbywreckandreeffishing

Hi Jamie Whilst it is physically possible to use a Beach-Casting type rod, they really aren’t ideal for Uptiding, as they are too long. For Uptiding, I like a rod in the 8-9ft range (most Beach-casters are 12-14ft). Using such a long rod, you will be looking up into the sky all day (makes some people poorly). Also, when the boat swings around on the tide, the long rods are bending right over and I’ve seen quite a few snap. I would advise to use the tackle provided on the boat if you’re unsure. My hire tackle consists of Daiwa Super Kenzaki Uptiding Rods and Shimano Aerlex Reels, which are ideal for the job. Regards Andy

Many Thanks for the information much appreciated 👍

All my hire rods for wrecking and rough ground have the Penn Warfare 30LW. Great value for money and also a level wind for the less experienced angler. Comes out of gear well when under tension. 👍

Sorry, for Uptiding I use the Daiwa Tournament QDA reels. The quick drag is really useful when the boat starts swinging.

@@whitbywreckandreeffishing thank you for coming back, is these tournament rods any good? I will have trip on your boat next week Never had a chance to do boat fishing, but now looking to get in to it on regular bases and buy my own gear.

@@bl8026 I really rate the Daiwa Tournament Uptide Rods. Plenty of backbone lower in the blank, with a nice progressive tip. Quite a few few people have bought one after having a go with mine. You’re welcome to try it out, if you’re on board Sea Urchin in the future.

@@whitbywreckandreeffishing thank you for your time. See you soon on sea urchin
