Love your vids do a colab with catfish and carp

[@connorhewitt6868]

Awesome lads! Could you do a video on how you tie on a spomb to your main line? Cheers

[@thedutchgamerguy8580]

Assuming you got a dedicated spod rod, use 20 pound -ish braided mainline. Not mono, the thickness will reduce casting distance. Then take some 50 pound braided leader, and tie it on using a back to back grinner, doing 8 or so turns. Tying knots wit braid requires more turns then mono. When its tied on, wind the leader on the spool 3-4 times, thats enhough. Then take it throug the eyes an back down to the reel. Cut it there. Now tie big figure of8 loop knot, so the spomb can fit through it. Loop it on, and youre good to go! Hope this helps :)

Great advice like always. I’m sure I remember on an old video of yours that you said you could use normal rod for spodding at short range. Is that right?

[@alexvh1405]

I use a 3lb test curve rod with the micro dot spod works perfect👍

Recently received your Fishing Log and Black cap👍👍 I know my comment is a bit late, but here goes: I fish small waters in the US (where the carp have never seen boilies, hemp or most ground bait). 95%+ of the Carp caught around me are caught by accident and on corn! While I do add sweet corn to my mix (no need to fix something that’s not broken), I’ve been trying to keep strict to the UK-style (boilies, particle, hook baits, etc…call me stubborn🙄 That said, do you think your mix in the video will work in the waters I fish? Any suggestions for me to use as an addition or an alternative? Will carp be attracted to a food source they’ve never encountered? Thanks much -Joe

[@adrianekstrom9437]

I have a question. Let’s say you’re buying a jig rod and it says 40 to 130 g. Can u use less than that is it ok.

[@stephenhusband348]

You can use less then 40g but might struggle with bite indication off the smaller fish at the tip of the rod. A way around this is to use a multiplier reel so you can have your finger on your line constantly to feel the bites through your line. The biggest problem imo, if say you drop down to 10g or even 20g the action of the rod might pull the jig back to much when you twitch ect. Hope this helps buddy

Hello if my rod are lets say an example of 10 times how much to ise for spod clips?

:Hi guys I just started carp fishing and wondered if you had an old rod bag for sale that can hold 3 12ft rods?

[@BiobananeXXL]

Hi great video, can i use your mix for pva too?

[@outandabout3335]

Of course, you may have to put salt on the sweetcorn and hemp to prevent the sweetcorn melting the pva. 👍🏻🎣

[@lewis.office]

What sort of rod do u use ?

[@thedutchgamerguy8580]

Any rod with arround 4 to 5 lb testcurve will have the power needed to send spombs flying. For most distance use a 13 foot rod, but theres also 10 foot spod rods available for shorter ranges. A 50 mm butt ring helps a bunch too.

[@lewis.office]

Can you help me with a question i have, can i us a spod rod and real for catfish fishing

[@mattyctill]

Rod yes, reel no

[@franstehecsusac3875]

@@mattyctill okay, can you tell me just why i can't use the reel

[@mattyctill]

@@franstehecsusac3875 spod reels are geared so they have a really fast retrieval rate. This is to make it easier to spod out numerous times in a row without so much effort reeling in each time. The reels are not really designed to play fish on. A spod rod is good for catfish due to the higher test curve. Just pair it with a normal carp reel though.

[@franstehecsusac3875]

@@mattyctill thank you so much

[@BrolyPT]

if my fishing rod 13 is bigger than spod rod 12, should i consider the difference when wrapped?

[@bigeddz]

As long as the distance sticks remain the same distance apart just count the wraps and you are good to go.

[@MrKato84]

Bait and Spomb on same wraps is not 100 % acurate, Spomp must be thrown a little less far

[@fishingtutorials]

Yep, but this is a video for beginners so I didn’t want to confuse them :)

[@mandismith89]

starting to see alot of my local lakes now stopping the use of spodding because its ruining the water where so much is being put in and uneaten because noddies still think that the more bait they put in, the better chance of catching

[@darrenrichardson6803]

Totally agree spod warriors everywhere after watching films ? Every water is different some venues are pressurized they see any loose feed as instant trap ?

[@maxoneson9616]

This is one of the problem nowadays where all the Noddy's can have all the money and baits and all the gear but no bloody idea lol

[@coreydalton-thorp1656]

Mate mesh bags are doing it, keep seeing people putting massive beds of bait out not catching.

[@jahrolo]

When it comes to dry particles - I wouldn´t be too bothered about that. (I don´t use them dry) But at least carp have a really strong digestive system (I mean, they eat mussels whole) and digest it in less than 2 hours. Or am I wrong?

hi Carl and Alex

[@katienaylor4706]

Love you guys ♥️

[@NoLuuck]

i cannot aim a spod for the life of me lmao

[@thedutchgamerguy8580]

Practice practice practice... Just take a bucket of dirt, put it in the spomb to simmulate a filled one. then focus on the far bank marker. Really try to keep the rod in line with the marker during the actual cast. If the rod sways off, so will the spomb. As for the distance, use the line clip. Keep the weight of the spomb approximately the same every cast, and also the force you put into the cast. Hitting the clip 0.5 to 2 metres above the water yields the most accurate results. Pretty much it, just practice a lot! Let me say again that its really important you keep the rod in line with the far bank marker DURING the cast, pay attention to it. Get spoddin mate!
