Great result on the £500 gear. As you said before, its not all about having £1000's of kit,its about being able to fish with the right bait, the right balanced end tackle and dependant on the draw, the right peg. I hope a lot of youngsters get to see this Vid. Well done Andy.

[@markcrawshaw7226]

Absolute legend in the angling world, I love this man 👍🏻🎣

[@Ianboid68]

Without a doubt, the biggest, friendliest, and funniest personality in the angling world. Don't ever change m8👍

[@michaelcox13]

Brilliant Andy, my lad laughs his head off watching you and was made up you won the match off a peg with the same number as his birthday - Oooosh!!

[@mikefrench3574]

Congrats Andy - great result and good luck to whoever gets to use all of that kit once you pass it on.

[@ahzippy]

Loved this video, my kind of fun in the cold 🥶

[@jamiecross5614]

Never mind the price of the tackle what a win. For new comers and people on a budget (me) it just shows what you can do with basic tackle and watching videos like yours for advice on how to approach your swim, we'll done Andy👍👍

[@WanderingwithWatto]

A very good comprehensive tour guys. Loved the gallery and the castle was awesome. Great video as always. Have a fab weekend and we will catch you again soon. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶‍♀️❤️

[@stevehansler9014]

Well done Andy never any doubt you'd win. The man's a legend

[@nigel3007]

Well done Andy great match loved your thoughts on how to match fish its not always the best tackle but it is the best angler who wins the match

[@keithhiggins1019]

Brilliant video Andy it shows what can be achieved without breaking the bank. Thanks again for the great day I had with you when I bought my first pole.

[@leeheasman1618]

Great match and some great tips on feeding the swim during the winter.

[@itanamullik]

When your trying to find different sized roach, I normally test different depths you can find at times the larger fish are only taking on the drop or in reverse, its normally the smaller fish taking in the first 40% of the drop and the bigger are mid water to bottom but sometimes it's worth coming up a little

[@chloepope198]

Great stuff Andy love the videos, think it's brilliant that you and Jamie are giving the tackle away that you bought to a young angler to help them on their way into fishing I've done the same for youngsters that I know nothing expensive as being disabled on limited income myself but I love to show them some of the basis see the happiness on their faces when they start catching. It would be great to see a follow up video with you and Jamie giving a bit of coaching to the youngsters who win the tackle to be shown the way to use the gear by a couple of top angler's would make their day. Keep it up lads good info and you make it fun.👍🎣🐡 ( Chloe's Dad)

Great result Andy 👍 Think this just proves it's watercraft that wins matches not top of the range expensive tackle, All the best mate 👍🎣💪

[@Recoverycloud]

thinking of getting back into fishing after a long break.... whats that pole hes using ? love these vids !!

[@theflossingfisherman7925]

I agree, I see people at my club with thousands of pounds worth of gear and I turn up with a £50 Preston method rod and pull out all day. It is understanding the basics of fishing.

[@bagger7561]

🤣🤣🤣 Just goes to show... how many thousands of £££ of gear you see around a lake, on a match. Then Andy wins a match on a £500 set up 🤦‍♂️🤣🤣🤣 It's watercraft that wins matches🙂 Awesome vid gents 👏

[@nickmeekins7643]

Brilliant - just goes to show it's not the gear that's important, it's the angler behind the gear that's the key factor. I hope that whoever inherits the gear from this challenge has as much fun as Andy did. As an Idea how about Andy and Jamie taking the two gear inheritors out and having a challenge with them? It would be a brilliant experience for the two youngsters.

[@WinningWays]

Will try and get it done later in the year 👍🏻

[@grumpy-dad3701]

I think my set up was less than 100. 20 on a telescope rod. 25 on the reel. 20 on a folding landing net and then a few quid on other bits that I either don't need or haven't a clue how to use them properly. I can stick it all in my backpack and off I go.

While match fishing isn't my bag, this just goes to show that most tackle is designed to catch anglers, not fish! I've never owned expensive gear and I still catch (mostly!) and have fun, and that's what it's all about.
