FISH PULLS MY FISHING ROD INTO THE LAKE!!! WILL THIS FLAVOUR CATCH MORE FISH?

[@stephensmith6177]

Thats why fighting drag and baitrunners were invented. 🤣🤣🤣

[@mattydare]

@stephensmith6177 Forgot to add - he was using a decent v rest as well 🤭

[@judz567]

Baitrunner...for course fishing. lol, okies.

[@bl4086]

Great video. Looking forward for an „in depth explanation on how to get your rod back“ on the edge 😜 Cheers

[@TahamasaAcademy]

Aw man that was class. That happened to me a couple of months ago. I felt a right newbie. Great to see it happens to experienced guys like yourself as well. Don’t feel quite so embarrassed now. Great honest video.❤

[@paulstacklereviews1695]

Good video, I love a bit of pellet feeder and have the hookbait like you do having watched the Edge video as a member. Lucky to get the rod back, I always recommend Guru Reaper rear rest and/or Maver auto clasp rod at the front - saved me regularly.

[@RobWootton]

I usually have a better front rest, lucky I got it back

[@davidhodgson1385]

Class , shows it happens even to the best ! Great video as always rob 👍🎣

[@tomworthington2774]

“What a plonker” 😂 A couple of days ago at woodlands, I had 2 method rods with same set up and same distance cast. One with flavoured micros with scopex and one with unflavoured, the latter won 6-1. Was quite surprised by that result and will try with F1 sweet and krill. Next time with unflavoured and F1 and see which one does best.

[@iainbickerstaff7099]

Hat’s off to you that you didn’t edit your rod going for a swim. Great video

[@leepullon1147]

my fave from the range is spicy shrimp and prawn, I always do well when I use it as a glug or soak my mesh bags in it the night before I get bankside

[@chrisweston9265]

Rob my Friend. I have no Words, glad you got it back though😆

[@foxley66]

Glad you got your rod back! 🤫🤔😉🦆🎣Tight Lines Steve Amison

[@michaeltomlinson3799]

Sorry Rob,Coached by yourself and Ive brought you down to my level!!!! Great Vid keep them coming!

[@johngibbin1416]

Pleased to see you got your rod back, I’d have been straight in after it, I’ve been in Makins earlier in the year to retrieve pole sections that slid in when unpacking my kit, lessons learnt, slide the sections away from the water, not towards it and it’s much colder than it looks. Also would you be able to do a video featuring how you record these blogs, GoPro set up, audio etc.

[@topfuelteddy]

Wow Rob, how lucky was it getting the rod back , surprised it hasn't towed left or right . I drive past that lake regularly whilst going to shearsby , might be worth a dabble . Ive got some rubber grip rear rests and im sure it wouldn't have happened with that .

[@rudigrest4013]

great vid even the best foooooooooo up really should have show how to retrieve rod back and how long it took another great vid

[@yosipko5282]

In autumn fish get chunky. I had 4-5 snap off on river, with 8kg 0.22 hooklenght and hook size 10. Best adrenaline rush whole year👍

[@baldrickscunningplan6154]

I got hold of some Shrimp and Krill flavoured oil. I couldn't use it. The stink was so bad. I used bleach on my hands to get rid of the smell. Some maybe able to ignore the smell, so it would be interesting if it works.

[@malcrandall1309]

I wish some one could tell me how the aroma we smell translates in the mucky pond water with all the inherent water movement.

[@russellfanning3561]

comedy gold that rob

[@MegaTreble99]

😮 Reaper back rest mate... great informative vlog as usual Rob

[@RobWootton]

Cheers …. I don’t like something really bulky at the back. I usually have a better front rest.

[@steveraynor2946]

You lucky bugger Rob, when that happened to me I lost my Carp feeder 10ft and a TDM, never to be seen again

[@jaylo912]

Love the quick way you accepted the fact the rod had gone. The only thing more entertaining would have been an impulsive dive :)

[@stephenarmstrong6620]

You should of filmed the rod retrieval to show us how it’s done. Great film as usual what hook type did you use? 👏👏👏

[@RobWootton]

So lucky Stephen, size 10 kkh

[@karlos3611]

Haha this was so funny.. Always enjoy your vids mate good to see you didn't edit out losing the rod👍Surprised you don't have sides on your reaper fishing at 90 degrees etc and those CTX (great rods) have such a thin cork handle the don't fit in any of the standard butt rest...Dangerous lol no room to even reach for your flask😆

[@RobWootton]

Cheers Karlos

[@PDano2007]

School boy error there rob always be prepaird to jump straight on no matter what the situation 🤣🤣 empty pockets

[@RobWootton]

It vanished so quick!!! You can see my brain working whether I should jump or not

[@christinejustice164]

Do you think you should have certain flavours for certain times of the year❓

[@malcrandall1309]

On Robs videos I purposely look on his side trays looking for signs of any bait additive's not mentioned in the video. I haven't seen any signs of the F1 sweet for ages. For me F1 sweet is the only one! It's all down to the fish, watch underwater videos to see how many fish swim by without taking any notice of the bait.

[@RobWootton]

Love the F1 sweet

[@paulwilliams1519]

School boy error, Rob 😂

[@RobWootton]

Terrible

[@scottrankin7759]

How shit are them rod rests 😂

[@leejohnson221]

You must have cut of the single prong on your Middy rod rest, why? Could lose your rod🤣

[@RobWootton]

I was using that rest on the river and the prong was getting on the way. It was the only rest I had with me for this trip sadly

[@geraldhinde681]

A gripping screw in back rod rest mate you will never lose another rod preston do them

[@geraldhinde681]

Sorry gripper

[@stephensmith6177]

Bait runner, fighting drag that is what they are designed to do. Took your eyes off the rod to look at your phone ---- why ? Put the bloody thing away !

[@Moonbase-jh6wn]

Change that back rest !

[@richgreasley3458]

What did your Dad teach you, ALWAYS keep your hand on the rod 😅.

[@RobWootton]

He taught me very little as you know

[@billybatts294]

i think a lot of of commercial match anglers are becoming one trick pony,s theres still a few all rounders but not many will raison probably would put the fear of god in some some of these carp puddle anglers

[@davidcowburn1025]

Hi Rob, I like to see your tips and tricks but I'm afraid that I feel that this one is a hard sell for this flavouring and losing your rod was staged. Please don't try to treat us like idiots, you are too good to stoop to this. If this was a genuine video please accept my apologies.

[@RobWootton]

Yeah, I definitely want to chuck an expensive rod and reel in the lake…. Lake water does your reels a world of good so I might start soaking all my reels after a session.

[@stevewalker5989]

Tit

[@mattydare]

Agreed - (wouldn't give thanks for the reel but) £140 rod on a poor rest, on camera? I don't understand! As others have posted, Reapers front and rear (other makes are available). If like me you are easily distracted (ADHD) then back the clutch off a bit too.

[@paulhayes7257]

😂😂😂😂

[@Fishing-ug6ud]

Lol but why isn’t an angler of your calibre using a butt grip for carp it’s just basic common sense ??

[@RobWootton]

I’m not perfect unfortunately

[@slingerwood6771]

If you don't want to loose those very expensive rods and reels change your front and back rod rests other wise you will be dipping into your piggy bank again.
