With the abundance of match anglers on KZbin (no disrespect to them at all) its nice to see a channel for the common people made by a true gent

[@borderlands6606]

Agreed. Sponsored down to their underwear and a new manufacturer every three years. I prefer Graeme's well used and mismatched tackle any day.

[@danielcoppock]

fishing should be about technique and skill not how much money you have to spend on tackle think graham does an awesome job of showing that and proving it with simple tactics there is big results.

[@hishaamadam1460]

danielcoppock most of the tackle out there is designed to catch anglers more than fish!

[@mformother4449]

Best fishing channel bar none.

[@jfink1819]

This makes one a proud viewer. Nothing more exciting than an old school simple snag drag and bag

[@grahamnash9794]

been an angler for many many years, and yet i really love the way this basic stuff comes across as interesting when Graeme explains it. so glad these shows keep on coming, they take me fishing when i cant get out.

[@matthewjackson2853]

You think this basic stuff is interesting check out the Compleat Angler. You be surprised how relevant the info in that 1450s book is.

[@alconsult5322]

One of your best movies about float fishing that you have done. Thank you Graeme

[@chillvibe89]

Love that oart when you munching on the sandwich and you zipped that line and got happy and was like OHOH NUM NUM NUM NUM had me laughing like a hyena😂😂

[@flashtheoriginal]

I am a dedicated surface angler; Im not brilliant but I get by. I am quite humble about my methods and exploits, I tend to keep it simple and I always want to learn. My favourite fishing, by a mile, is On The Top. Often, ledgering on the bottom with a 2oz upward inline will always leave me guessing "am I yards away...what IS down there....am I in with a chance or wasting my time?" This video has really encouraged me to get on the float this Autumn. Great information and tips. Thank you again, Graeme

[@TAFishing]

The float is stimulating because you are moving the bait and not,as you say "guessing" whether your bait is anchored in the right place as with a leger weight.

[@Skibidi-Slicers666]

Another Friday night at work made better with a dose of graeme. I don't think I've ever seen a bad one on this Channel enjoy all the coarse ones even the tackle shack ones are good there shouldn't be any thumbs down or negative comments written on this channel always a pleasure to watch keep them coming.

[@stevewilliams9227]

Another tip for newbies to float fishing. I carry some float rubbers in different sizes in yellow red,white and black. If you are having trouble seeing your float, particularly in rippled water, slip on a float rubber to the top of the float only. It can create a 'stripe' and make it easier to see.

[@johnpage2579]

I've used pre frozen ground bait balls if I'm fishing for the whole day . Lob out the frozen bait in a chosen area and leave it to defrost. While thats left fish as normal targeting another area of the swim, as the frozen bait defrosts first the particles bring in the small fish followed buy the larger fish. It's a great way to feed a swim and the fish don't get disturbed and put off feeding give it a go I would love to see the results. And as you say that one's free.keep up the best fishing channel online

[@deereating9267]

One of the things I love about watching your channel is the artist's eye for cinematography that you have. Just - lovely scenes to go along with the awesome fishing.

[@jakesansom9491]

i always get my line tangled around my rod when i pull it back to cast and its very frustrating! that little tip about turning hands outwards could be a game changer, cant wait to try it out..thanks!

What a fantastic video. Best at explaining to total beginnings like myself.

[@Wrighty2211]

perfect timing to see this, was just looking through the channel to see if i have missed any float fishing videos and i see this!

[@davidb.7093]

Another great video, looks like a nice fishery. Great tips for novices and experts alike they should pull Strictly and put your videos on instead!

[@TAFishing]

Well I'm certainly not doing the Argentine Tango !!!

[@davidhall4914]

A perfect end to the week, thanks Graeme.

[@darknomad911]

still loving your videos graham! i love how you have time for new people and showing the basics without being condescending! ive spent the last 15 years fishing from a kayak made every mistake along the way! but watching your boat videos has given me the confidence to mould my kayak experience with buying a sib with a 9.9hp selva engine for this summer! boat cost less than it would of for a current top of the range spec hobie kayak(that i own) less than 3.5k for a complete motorised boat settup with portability!

[@MrSkateroli]

EPIC is the right word Graeme! Totally awesome vid!

[@poodle559]

If i could give any advice for those interested when it comes to sweet corn it would be. Use canned corn for the hook and frozen for the feed, reason being sometimes some of the frozen stuff can float. Personally i use canned for both due to the frozen stuff being a little bland. Where as the canned stuff seems to be much more sweeter due juice it soaks in. Also i add the juice out of the can into the ground bait mix. These days canned sweet corn costs very little. Just sayin

[@Big_Boss92]

Great advice!

[@terohalpin8004]

Great tips cant go wronge with anyone of them,love the rods like my own feeder and match great to see you catch double figure carp on them goes to show you dont need 3 pound test curve rods have mote fun with an Avon match r feeder cortinly showed me somethinh new tonigh,love that Avon rod of yours used tohave one the same and i brokethe bottom end of it was never the same again after that.Watching your cat fish video from 3 years ago now just said good bye to mr wiskers ha ha,weather is picking up in ireland think i might get out tomorrow for a two nighter on lough Mask good luck mate.

[@ezedjay]

Top TAF stuff as usual - and like everyone says - you make the simplest of advice so watchable enjoyable and memorable. Sad to see what's happened with those commercial shooting fish in a barrel places though. I fished and caught Carp in the UK all through the 80s and never encountered such abused fish with deformed mouths and bloated boilie bodies. Seems to be the norm now. I did see it starting though in some club waters around 1988/1989. I personally would have no interest in fishing a place like that nowadays.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

[@toddjohnston4788]

The most interesting and learning point for me on this video was planning were to walk when you get your hit, away from the snags. I messed up so many times.

[@SuddenSnap]

I like that Intro.

[@TheDougsSB]

Going fishing tomorrow on float aswell I hope I catch

[@HitTheBricks89]

Looking like Inspector gadget with all those rods and nets and handfuls of carp going off at once Graham :) You really do provide about the best escapism there is on this platform. why bother counting sheep to get me off to sleep , just turn on a bit of Pullen and drift off counting carp.

[@johanolsson1562]

Great video as always. I watch a lot of fishing videos, but one thing i never really get any information about is how often one refills the feeder during winter fishing. I have reduced my feeding to only one in five casts (in fast phased water) but I honestly do not find that it does any difference.

You are an absolute legend mate. Your videos are top quality. I think you would benefit having a ghillie with you on your travels. I and hundreds others would like the job. We're fairly close in age. From what I can make out we could be living close. I can help with the driving and I make good tea. Think about it mate you could actually fish more than worrying about the camera all the time. What d'ya reckon mate ? Great video again by the way. P.s Did I spell ghillie correctly? LOl

[@philstanden8300]

In there somewhere!

[@Hanns55644]

(For new people) 13:25 They are called distance sticks buy them instead of using bank sticks as they are smooth the line will come of easier and no chance of snagging on something. Also find one with some pre tied rope so they will always be the same distance, so the next trip all you will need to do is count the raps and you will be good.

[@chrisprobert6]

You must be new to the channel mate. We all know he won't spend cash if he doesn't have to. Lol

[@robrandle3022]

Hi there. When u put the paste on your float hook. How do you present it? Would u completely cover the hook or. ????? Thanks in advance

[@TAFishing]

Keep the paste soft,try and leave a bit of hookpoint showing,and I like to squeeze into a bit of a flat shape.

[@upthecelts2k18]

What’s the best hook size for roach/Rudd on the float

[@TAFishing]

About size 16 would be average

[@BladeRicsi]

Hi Graeme, what is your opinion, how important using the water from the lake where you are fishing to mix the ground bait, or just pre mixing the ground bait at home using normal drinking water?

[@TAFishing]

I often mix at home with tap water,fish don't seem to mind.

[@BladeRicsi]

@@TAFishing Thank you for the tip. I waste to much time on the beach to premepering my stuff, if i mix the groundbait at home, i can earlier begin to fishing on the beach, and that is good.

[@dorfrez]

What are the charges to fish like this? I am a Yank in the deep USA south (Mississippi) and the stocked ponds here have an entry cost and a per pound charge for what your keep.

[@7485D]

Russell These sort of lakes are catch and release. They’re stocked with what We call Coarse fish. Not game fish. Not sure on this particular lake but around me they vary between £5 and £20 per day for two rods

[@dorfrez]

Thank you both. Here most of the ponds are stocked with 3 fish species: channel cats, a variety of black bass and sun fish. The size and limit is set by the state and the per pound charge for the bass is usually enough to encourage release unless it is of trophy size . There are lots of wild lakes and rivers here and most stocked ponds are used for family day out fishing.

[@paullovesey4863]

In windy conditions, why would you keep your rods raised? Why not have them low down to the water?

[@snpsomo]

Graeme, is there any reason you wouldn't use some elasticated thread to mark the clip up? Apparently that works.

[@poodle559]

That's how it used be done back in the day before distance sticks came out.

[@doogled6749]

Your supposed to clip up each time before you wind in, not measure the distance on the sticks, thats for when you forget to clip up before winding in or like you say a big fish takes line and you loose the distance.... not trying to be critical, just helpful. Love the show, keep up good work.

[@joebowsher1917]

DOOGLED Once your feeder is settled on the bottom you take the line of the clip and you then reel in the slack line and put a bend in the quiver. Before you wind in you put the line back on the clip. Would reeling in the slack line and tightening the quiver not cause the feeder to move closer and closer throughout a session or am I being stupid?

[@doogled6749]

@@joebowsher1917 yes will move about a little bit, every so often you check it against the bank sticks/electrical tape, i put tape at my bottom ring when lead settled and rod is in position on rests, then its easy to see visual if tape at butt ring then clip up.

[@doogled6749]

@Wheaten Zoomies Graham is a great all round angler, but hes not a carp angler, it tends to be carp fishing at distance when fishing over a bed of bait or trying to find a small feature in weed when using the line clip is essential. Most feeder reels dont even have line clips that will withstand keep casting to the clip. Thats something that always amazes me about fishing, you can always learn something new (old dog new tricks)

[@alanrichards1462]

Why do you have your rods at a 45° angle. Surly be better lower down so line can run through rings..

[@poodle559]

It is comical and totally unnecessary along with having quiver tip rods on buzzers, but he likes it.

[@TAFishing]

I've never been one to follow the sheep,I just like doing something different,especially if I am told this "must" be fished in a certain way. I am also trying to put a film together and I need every indication I need if I am looking through the lens or filming something else. Missed bites = no fish,and no fish = no films for you guys. Seems logical to me.
