Its all stuff you should learn at the start of your fishing life. But sadly so many start with a ledger, and know nothing about float fishing. Well done excellent buddy.

[@grandwonder5858]

For a guy calling himself an "amateur" you sure are the best pro I've ever known at explaining fishing techniques!

[@AmateurAngling]

You are very kind, thank you and best of luck.

[@marcmenet2599]

Probably the best guide to float fishing videos ive seen

[@AmateurAngling]

Thank you for your comments. Best of luck with your fishing.

[@bilbos2372]

What an excellent video. Learnt more in a few minutes. Other videos seem more interested in showing fish being caught than actual tackling up using correct methods. Thanks, will certainly see all your other videos.

[@raymondadams579]

Excellent... I really don't fish the waggler successfully and your video really helped me understand what I should be doing.

[@henryAightch]

This film is pure fishing poetry. Super informative. Thanks for posting it!

[@furrukhriaz3228]

Thanks for this video. I'm new to fishing and this has helped me.

[@dynamohums]

I fished in my youth then stopped. 40 years later I'm looking to get back into it with my teenage boys and your videos are fantastic. Brought it all back and really helps refresh my jaded memories. Thank you :).

[@AmateurAngling]

dynamohums My pleasure and the very best of luck.

[@pgspurs]

As somebody who is a beach angler and hasn't coarse fished for 45 yrs i have been watching youtube vids on float fishing, this is by far the most informative one i have come across explained in a very easy to understand way, thank you very much you have just increased my knowledge and understanding ten fold.

[@AmateurAngling]

You are very welcome, best of luck with your fishing.

[@pgspurs]

@@AmateurAngling First time out in 45yrs, lots of small Roach a couple of 3lb Mirrors and a nice Bream using borrowed everything, but looking forward to using my own spanking new gear this weekend, will be watching this video yet again before i go, thanks once again. Regards Paul

[@petaks01]

Excellent video, absolutely the best explanations I have seen with clean graphics and lots of examples.

[@Twirlyhead]

Best float fishing video I have ever seen by a country mile - fantastic. I will certainly look up the other videos you cite.

[@AmateurAngling]

You're Hired.

[@chriswilliams1096]

Thanks for a well designed and presented video. I am encouraged to do more waggler fishing now that I understand the principles a bit better.

[@phr3683]

A great and comprehensive run through on waggled fishing.

[@AmateurAngling]

Thanks, I'm working on my next "How to" film which will be on stick floats, although it might be a few weeks yet.

[@MrBobfoale]

Not too long, and not too short: a fantastic explanation of the waggler on a lake. I'm new to fishing and this video has pointed out some of my errors. Thanks, can't wait to get back out and re-try it again.

[@AmateurAngling]

Glad it was helpful, best of luck with your fishing.

I really enjoy your video's, many are more interested in promoting products or skim over details. Your approach to detail for a novice angler is invaluable. Keep going, you helped me and I can believe many more......

Thanks for another great video. When I last fished aged 11 it seemed so much easier than now I am taking it back up at 66. I have a lot to learn and have only caught a small Rudd after three trips to my local lake but boy am I enjoying it. As more professional angler's say " tight lines everyone".

[@barryfisherman4145]

Ted Edwards hi ted hope you are still fishing and improving. Richard on these vids is one of the best for showing people how to fish. I’m 54yrs old been fishing since age of 7yrs old and believe me I’m still learning lol.

[@davidbrown3749]

Thanks for a very informative video, I’m back into course fishing after many years away, you get the basics which are so important, spot on. I look forward to watching more from you.

I have over fifty years angling experience, but i still watched from start to finish. This is great info for beginners, well explained. Everyone should start fishing with rod, reel and float. Great video.

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

Rod, reel and float? Rod, reel and fly! 😊

[@TwoLadsFishing]

I wish I had found these videos when I started out! Extremely helpful and I like how everything is described completely from scratch. Keep it up as I image you are helping loads of beginners

[@AmateurAngling]

Thank you very much, best of luck.

[@cheemus1275]

Can I just say, thank you very much for this video! This is 1 of only 2 videos I have seen which explains in detail exactly what to do for beginners and gives variation incase it doesn't work. The other video being Matt Hayes how to float fish, which got me into fishing. However I found when I went out I still didn't have a clue what I was doing lol I want to get back out there this year and try again so looked for the Matt Hayes video, however, it seems to have a copyright claim! Thankfully, I have found your video, and I truly believe I have a lot better understanding from this than I did from Matt Hayes so thank you. I'll be out again soon now

[@AmateurAngling]

There is quite a bit more to fishing than people think, so it can take a time to get to grips with it. All I can say is keep at it and in time it will all begin to make sense. I wish you the very best of luck and patience. Thank you for your kind comments.

I've never fished before but after watching this and a few other KZbin videos me and my girlfriend went fishing with a really cheap rod, reel, 5lb line, waggler float and sweetcorn. Caught well over 15 tench in 6 hours, and had great fun. Thanks for the informative video, we're hoping to do some more fishing again

I never used waggler floats, I use bolo. I was surfing the youtube to understand what is the fuss about these floats! This is the only video I could find that explains right to the point the advantages of waggler over bolo. Bolo is almost useless in high wind conditions.

[@RamdhanTheExplorer]

thanks for tutorial 👍👍👍

[@robshaw3655]

all good sound advice. Would add the small rubber float stops you slide up the line are a great addition allowing float depth to be changed without the need to move shot too much. one or two either side of float can hold it in place. I put shot below float so float can easily be slid up the line to increased depth. Self loading floats also good as they reduce number of shot you need to pinch on the line .

[@davidklein4980]

[@blairkingsley6440]

At the moment I'm going through lots of videos to remind myself of some key things before I take my son out fishing for the first time. It's been a long time since I've been. This was a very useful watch as waggler float fishing will likely be our first port of call.

[@AmateurAngling]

Best of luck to you both.

[@darrenmcinerney2212]

Excellent the best video I have seen on KZbin on how to float fish on stillwaters very well explained. Could you please put a video up on how to fish with pva mesh and pva bags when you get time? Loved your video on how to fish with the method feeder also Thanks :-) Darren from Ireland.

[@AmateurAngling]

[@alexkurpaska8929]

I Love It

[@iamphilclark2695]

Great video, really helpful info

[@jaquesdaniels2964]

This is spot on - the content concentrating on the method rather than a quick description followed by match tactics and feeding . I.E - exactly what us leisure anglers need . Your tips and clear explanations inspired me to have another go at waggler fishing . I was rubbish , but at least I knew why . I caught fish though and learnt about the lake . I had problems with fixing the shot , and changing the shotting pattern - a 13' rod is too long for the place and I have to side cast , I just got a 10' float rod , and will try loaded waggler next time as I saw this video . Maybe you could do a video on shot ? as there is the non toxic stuff , double cut , "stotz" , I found the small sizes impossible to put on the line . I also began to get the hang of feathering the line down at the end of the session - and hooray - sank the line . Your video got me started on float fishing again , liked and subbed , many thanks .

[@AmateurAngling]

I use non-toxic double cut shots from a No.6 and bigger, lead shots for anything smaller. I like the idea of a film on shots, I will give it some thought. Thanks for your comment, best of luck with your fishing. Please see: www.amateurangling.com/best-split-shot-for-float-fishing/
