[@TheFishingBloggers]

[@joncowley8961]

Usually like your vids,,repetitive music background ,,bummer,,more on bfs rods please,,now looking in earnest as my brand new abu Garcia snapped 1st time out,,,venerate next generation5/20gr-ml,,,,not impressed ,,,!!!!!

[@benprice3719]

I for one would appreciate if you showed us where you're fishing in your videos.

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

Gonna say it . Before i even finish the vid . Your the UK BFS pioneer mate . Leading the way for the UK BFS masses . Go down to 3lb fluorocarbon . Maybe even 2lb fluorocarbon . If anyone can do it , its perch Jesus !!! Ive caught 3lb perch on 1.3lb hooklengths while feeder fishing . How low can it be done ??? PERCH JESUS !!! JESUS !!! JESUS !!! I ll get back to the rest of the vid now . Lol .

[@JamesForrester]

I will get try some of the new 3lb major craft fluorocarbon from todbermanor on the weekend then! 😎

[@AndrewFishman]

@@JamesForrester 1.5 kg (3.3lb) braid with a 6lb leader (in case of a Yellowbelly, an Australian native) is my go to perch rig. Good fun when you get a carp of something a little bigger. :)

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

@@JamesForrester Look forward to it mate . I just ordered 3lb and 2lb fluorocarbon myself . Ordered the elf and let them know it was all down to your vids !!! Looking at a BFS reel now . Was hoping there was a new JDM 2020 BFS reel released . Doesnt look like it though . Now if only i knew where the perch round my way lived . Lol .

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

@@AndrewFishman Sounds it mate . Unfortunately for me , the EA dont bother with the local waterways near me !!!

[@melroyfernandes1]

Nice vid plus few nice perch too......waiting for Needhams to come back into stock for your budget set up as explained here.

[@jackdobson3156]

Budget BFS? Sign me up for that, I like my light/UL fishing and a bait cast set up would be sound

[@chriswarby1001]

Yes mate would love to get a BFS set up of a good standard and reasonable price 😃

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

Ah . Thats the one . What net handle would you recommend mate . Was looking the gunki street or the daiwa one . Gonna buy the rod tonight . Will leave a message to them saying it was on your recommendation . Brilliant vid as always . Great work mate .

[@darrenrodd.]

Daiwa 5.9 metre

[@JamesForrester]

Yeah I'm getting another daiwa 5.9m once you use a net that length you will never go back. I can fish anywhere with it because of the length!

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

@@darrenrodd. Cheers mate . Your a legend !!!

[@grantelkin2510]

Nice video once again mate, I'd be very interested in the lures you'll be selling soon.

[@Ipeefreelyfishing]

Have you got the bfs set ups on sale yet bud?

[@Joshutch1066]

So god your back uploading videos mate. Another awesome video bud

[@kevslife]

That's a nice way to spend the afternoon, glad you sorted your gopro mate

[@tmzzlo]

Nice video, just a quick question do you use any thinner or thicker fluorocarbon trace while fishing with this main 4lb fluoro? I always fishing braid and decided to give a go for fluorocarbon as a main line, so what you doing in places where pike activity is really high ? :D

[@tmzzlo]

@@JamesForrester today had first fishing with fluorocarbon as a main line and it was damn crazy day:D caught 16lb, 11lb,13lb pike and pb perch at 3lb15oz and allso plenty of smaller jacks and smaller perch close to 2lb :D so fluorocarbon as a main line really worth it :D. Thanks bro for your answer, and keep doing nice movies with my favorite fish perch :D

[@AndrewFishman]

Nice fish. I love hitting the perch with soft plastics. Winter can be slow, and like you, I go to a smaller profile shad, or wriggle tail grub, and fish it very slow and low. Great demonstration of some proven perch techniques mate. Just for the record, I am in Australia, so they act the same where ever they end up :)

[@sgtpavlov]

Nice fishing. It's neat to see how you guys do things across the pond over there. I am a BFS fanatic here in the North eastern US. I would love to see the BFS kit when it comes out. I have 2 Tsurinoya xf-50s with the lighter spirit fox spools in them, as well as a Scorpion BFS xg, Abu Garcia ALC BF7, fishband gh100, and some other ones.

[@danielwatt3464]

Nice video, thinking of purchasing a BFS style setup, what stretch of the thames are you fishing? I'm fairly close to Reading...

[@surenoblack2658]

Would any of the Daiwa steez suit bfs eg Daiwa Steez CT SV TW700XHL ?

[@tadhghayden8440]

Interesting!...if you got a telescopic version with a good action I would most definitely be interested....

[@fishing9724]

Look forward to seeing your new lures, enjoying your channel, Dan

[@Viking19077]

The start of this video sounds identical to the start of champagne supernova by Oasis.

[@smallfryproductions2184]

Good luck on your ventures for 2020 mukka

[@johnburling9969]

Hi mate love your vids could I ask you where you purchase and what type of Fluorocarbon you use cheers

[@matthewkay1992]

Awesome mate as always 🎣 what reel are you using on this film please Looking forward to seeing the launch of your new kit

[@mattwooldridge6300]

Matthew Kay it’s a daiwa steez

[@JamesForrester]

Yeah this is the daiwa steez type a with a Roro microcast spool from aliexpress

[@matthewkay1992]

Matt Wooldridge many thanks

[@stevecr6345]

Great Fishing! Is there a reason you're not using braid?

[@J4KEYYY]

Fishing without a net is always sketchy especially if you hook a pike !

[@JP-ic2ze]

Looking forward to more of the same. Great vids pal

[@alexandu.c]

Hahaha. I hit the like button before watching the video

[@middlelinebacker55]

Is this the Steez ct with the Ali Spool?

[@JamesForrester]

I have the steez type a the bigger one. But they do the spool for both the type a and ct. The ct spool is actually 0.5g lighter so will preform even better than this one!

[@cuTarefishing]

Nice freakin video dude ! Nice perches ! :D

[@davyboy4515]

so pleased to see you making videos again James 👍🏼

[@janosczovek8524]

Good video really enjoyed it thanks 👍
