SessionVictim #4 - Danny Fairbrass

DANNY FAIRBRASS
Age: 43 PB: 48lb 10oz (UK) 72lb (France)
Danny Fairbrass, the gaffer, was the founder of Korda Developments and, alongside his great team, has made Korda what it is today. He began his career traipsing around Walthamstow Reservoirs selling leads from his bucket, so you can appreciate that he's come a long way!
With a creative, trusted and innovative team behind him, Danny likes to spend time out the office to maximise his fishing efforts. This angling can take the form of magazine articles, television series or, when he gets time, his own personal pursuit of big carp at home and abroad.
Over the past few years, Dan has managed some truly magnificent fish from both home and abroad to over 70lb in weight. His mind is constantly in overdrive, innovating and developing new ideas to help improve his catch rate.
Danny is an authority on precision distance fishing and his spodding has to be seen to be believed! His rig thinking never stands still and the valuable insight that the Underwater series gave him means that he's always developing new solutions to all our rig problems. Dan's material is never dull so keep an eye out for his thought-provoking contributions on this site.

Great Nicely presented and explained. Thanks, I now know why that goo is so thin too.

[@Pritchy4]

Great advice can't wait to put these tips into my own fishing, thanks for sharing Danny.

[@tracetate2832]

[@tylane6192]

@Trace Tate Yea, I have been using kaldroStream for since december myself :)

[@jameshancock18]

the song at the start is "Heartbeat Amplifier The Polish Ambassador"

[@gallagherwhelan7287]

any one know what the first song is called

[@lewisdavis7722]

He is using sticky baits hemp and particles as his spomb mix. Don’t he believe in his own Mainline???

[@banditfishing1558]

Mainline didn’t make it at the time

[@amsealtd]

Any one no what lake this is

[@fireblaster9961]

This is good but some lakes have banned plastic baits, personally pop ups will take on flavours better

[@millwallfan06]

I’ve tied up a knotless knot hair rig with this stuff and when I test it in the sink the whole lot just floats? Is that because there’s no lead on? Might be a silly question but if someone could help that would be great thanks

[@MrFlussaal]

Have you tried to push it down? Maybe it‘s not able to break the surface tention?

[@MrFlussaal]

Or do you mean it floats with the fake corn? Yeah then it‘s normal, when there is no lead/ split shot on.

[@millwallfan06]

Dieselotto hi yes I tried to pull it down and it comes back up it’s very stiff, maybe with it attached to my lead setup it’ll be pinned down, and applying putty it’ll sink ?

[@kertwhite9352]

What size rig ring is he using ?

[@kertwhite9352]
