Minimalistic Method Feeder Setup !

[@ianredmond8389]

Top of the Tube you Westy lad! My catches dropped from between 50 and 100 fish a session as Autumn drew in to about 6 max these last few weeks. However, I don't let the forecast dictate when I go, I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them, all sellotaped together! 🙄 Tight Lines Brethren 😉🎣☕

[@WestysAngling]

Hope you are well Ian! Good to know it’s not just us, Really really tough winter. I know a few people who have done well on the odd day over the last couple weeks but not many. Tight lines and look after yourself 🎣👌🏻

[@pon9847]

Great video as usual keep them coming 😊

[@Adamfishing420]

Great watch westy travelling with only what u need is key when you don't have transport 💪🏻🙏🏻🎣🐟

[@WestysAngling]

Even when people have transport I think we are all guilty of lugging too much tackle out with us 😂🎣

[@Adamfishing420]

@@WestysAngling definitely brva 💪🏻

[@arthur_chandler]

Love the ground bait tub swap at the end

[@BarryRift]

watching your video and a nice cup of coffee, nothing better to start the day ! :)

[@rockdogization]

[@WestysAngling]

I must admit I do like being able to swap between equipment depending on how the fishing is 👌🏻👍🏻 thanks Kev ! Tight lines !

[@davetomlin8692]

GREAT VID MATE GOT TO TAKE LESS KIT MYSELF KEEP VIDEOS COMING

[@WestysAngling]

Will do ! Plenty to come, just need some warmer weather !

[@davetomlin8692]

SORRY MATE BUT MUST SAY SOME DOGGIE CASTING

[@WestysAngling]

Agreed 😂

[@davidleigh2573]

A great watch on a Saturday morning. I tend to go minimalistic these days, less strain on my old bones.! Did laugh at the bait bucket switch. Stay safe and thanks

[@WestysAngling]

I think it’s a mental thing that we feel we need to take everything with us 😂 🎣 thanks David !

[@johncross6479]

Great video as usual Westy thanks

[@martingurman215]

Another cracking video again Westy ,fancy knicking your dads groundbait bucket thats low ,lol off out tomorrow to test my new Method feeders from ebay recommended by yourself hope I dont blank keep up the great work.

[@WestysAngling]

😬 I didn’t quite get away with it though! Unfortunately 😂 they aren’t bad at all Martin ! Great value !

[@aclaudiu1906]

hello,thanks for the video,have a great night!

[@WestysAngling]

You are very welcome ! Thanks for commenting 🎣🎣🎣🐟

[@greenwooddigger]

Nicking your Dad's bucket- would have have been the best catxh of the day- you nearly got away with it! Nice mirror to save the blank. Looking forward to the spring when hopefully the bites will come thick and fast!! Also looking forward to some more fishery reviews. I'll have to try some of the attractents, I've not used them yet. I sense a shopping trip is coming!

[@WestysAngling]

Some attractants I recommended- Korda goo pineapple and sonubaits washed out haze, mainline essential Cell. All nice sweet flavours I have done well on !

[@chrisdevine2507]

Been looking for a long time on how to take less tackle and lo and behold you do this video, brilliant 😊😊, I usually need an artic to carry my stuff , the just in case syndrome 😂, ….. my catch rate always drops in winter , the fish where I fish seem to go on holiday from January to March 😂😂, brilliant video, made me rethink a few things , 🎣🎣

[@WestysAngling]

Haha! I know the feeling. I always try to travel fairly light for convenience. It is nice to have options but 99.9% of the time I use the same stuff! 😂

[@CIFC]

Loved the vid mate and have subbed. First time watcher

[@WestysAngling]

Thank you very much ! 🎣

[@AdamWRides]

Nice vid. I’m continually refining my kit to strike the right balance between taking the bare minimum/lightweight with comfort and speed to set up/pack away. Got my carp gear to where I want it, but when I have a ‘mixed day’ (float/feeder/carp) it is tricky! Tight lines!

[@xD2TV]

Love how honest are you, also great content!!! I literally started to go fishing here in UK and I absolutely love it

[@WestysAngling]

Thanks very much ! I glad you have found the channel ! 🎣🎣

[@davidsims3346]

Working on gettin my arse back to the UK, and was so happy to see that you dont need all the fancy kit to enjoy fishing. Question I have though , can you still be so minimal for a match?. Great content , love it.

[@WestysAngling]

I’m not sure David ! I just pleasure fish 🎣

[@arthur_chandler]

Great vid westy really helpful

[@WestysAngling]

Thank you 🙏🏻 👍🏻

[@stetunstall4124]

Great video as always, that was a cracking carp btw. Crook house farm for me today ...trolley required no minimilistic fishing for me ! Keep up with the vids m8

[@WestysAngling]

Thanks Ste ! Let me know how you get on there ! 🎣

[@stetunstall4124]

@@WestysAngling 55 fish, 1 decent f1 (4lb), 1 rudd , 1 decent bream and an even number of tench and skimmers, an all round enjoyable days pole fishing

[@WestysAngling]

Cracking day !!!

[@slavoljubdjordjevic8097]

Great story. Thanks

[@beginfishing]

Another good video, I have just bought the groundbait and riddle set and 30gr method feeders off eBay, when it gets warmer looking forward to using them. Have you ever thought trying your Ugly stick catching carp, I have ugly stick 6ft myself it would be good to see how it performs.

[@WestysAngling]

I have caught carp on the ugly stick Rob couple videos on the channel ! More than strong enough ! Awesome little rods.

[@si_blacksheep]

Great vid Westy. Too often fishing is over complicated. It doesn’t need to be. 👍

[@WestysAngling]

Thanks Simon ! Yes I agree, I think we always buy a lot more than we need because we are marketed by these big tackle companies. When really it’s the simplest things that usually work the best 😂🎣

[@si_blacksheep]

@@WestysAngling true pal, true. Should’ve taken a brolly though 😂

[@clivesquire6463]

mate just found your channel great informative easy to watch videos thanks for sharing too keep up the great work buddy i have just stated fishing again now i have retired where do you get method feeders for £1.50 !! cheers for the inspiration .

[@WestysAngling]

EBay Clive ! There is a link on a couple of my videos in the description 👌🏻👍🏻 thanks buddy tight lines 🎣

[@clivesquire6463]

Many thanks for the reply I just sent you another message as I'm watching your method feeder in the margins ref your chair cheers buddy👍

[@johnoneil766]

That's brilliant thank you. I am just getting back into fishing and love feeder fishing and want to get into "the method". If you don't mind me asking, which rod/reel holder are you using in the video please? Cheers :)

[@WestysAngling]

Glad it helped John ! So many method feeder videos on the channel 👌🏻🎣🎣 the rod pod is just an NGT one 👌🏻

[@johnoneil766]

@@WestysAngling Brilliant thank you, and thank for getting back to me so quickly mate. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Cheers and tight lines :)

[@WestysAngling]

You are welcome mate ! You should be able to recognise which model it is from the video, it’s only a cheap pod but it has lasted years 👌🏻

[@Crowzilla-UK]

Which brand is your bait bucket/riddle as can't find one like it ? Cheers & loving the content/channel ❤

[@WestysAngling]

It’s a Korum Groundbait and riddle set 👌🏻

[@Craiglovessarah]

Great videos westy..whats the name of your flask? 👍

[@WestysAngling]

It’s a Stanley flask … buy one ! Best flask ever

[@Purx-if6xe]

nice video.

[@johnsingleton4907]

What barrow/trolley do you use. Just started trying the method as fed up of taking all the pole gear, seatbox trolley etc. Cheers

[@WestysAngling]

I have an ngt barrow or I just carry stuff. Or you can get the Korum chair and barrow attachment

[@johnsingleton4907]

@@WestysAngling I have just bought a korum chair same as yours, will look at the ngt barrow. many thanks

[@fishingforbiteswithmo]

Great video 👍 do you use a separate mic?

[@WestysAngling]

No just a head mounted go pro and sometimes a Panasonic S5 SLR

[@thedrifterr]

Hi Mate, what make rod holdall is that , and did it take 2 10 foot feeder rods comfortably ?

[@WestysAngling]

I’m not sure buddy! I have a couple of them! NGT ones . I have since upgraded to semi stiff hard cases, they are a lot better

[@geraldhills41]

Is there anyway I can cut down a wafter that is too big and still get bites ?

[@WestysAngling]

I sometimes do this with really big wafters when hair rigging them !

[@raycox3469]

Only joking.keep up the good work

[@geraldhills41]

The heaviest thing is the pellets and ground bait ! At least it'll be lighter when you head home !

[@raycox3469]

If I had a car I would put kitchen sink in as well

[@WestysAngling]

Which I do 😂 it’s usually at full capacity

[@raycox3469]

But westy you got a car

Maybe Dad, could be "Minimalistic" with your Glaze Lol.
