The Magic Twig Explained | Carp Fishing | Ali Hamidi | One More Cast

[@Jim-ri6vc]

If the day ever comes when I need one of those twig thingies that's the day I stop fishing and take up golf. I firmly believe carp deserve a chance. If they get away with it then so be it. It adds to the challenge and, for me, that is what it's all about.

[@frankeckler1478]

Das rig funktioniert aber es sammelt sich Sand im aulösemechanismus und dann klemmt es und löst nicht aus ! Wer also seine montage noch mal nach dem auswerfen straffen will kann Pech haben und es hat sich Sand im rig gesammelt dann hat sich das mit dem auslösen erledigt den die Feder klemmt also noch verbesserungswürdig!

[@gnurgl5157]

So if your line snaps or the knot gives above this thing you leave the fish dragging a plastic grappling hook around that could end up killing the fish. The design looks like it could be deadly.

[@k1tootappy648]

Liked the comment but the design is so that if that happens the twig along with the lead clip will fall of the hooks link

[@upthesaints7201]

The lazy carp anglers’ self-hooking device - for those that can’t think outside the box in order to put a few more fish on the bank. Not catching is all part of it - it’s how you learn as an angler and progress. Hopefully, this contraption (and that’s exactly what it is) falls into obscurity. Historic (?) - MY ARSE!

[@alexmarkbull7435]

Well said mate

[@8117hen]

I cant see Ali ever backing down on this product. He chucked so much money into it. Probably 25k just on plastic tooling for example. He won't walk away from this device. It could damage his company....

Is it called the magic twig because you cant see it going off when the carp on the product packet was hooked?

So many unanswered and avoided questions. The integrity of OMC appears to be fading. There are too many experienced anglers for this blag to work 😂

Omc and Ali has really Impressed me with some of their products and prices. How this one got through without any of his team or researchers reading the EA/Government Thames Catchment area rules is beyond me. Clearly states no self hooking devices. Omc should really be letting potential customers know, you can’t fish in certain areas with this.

It’s a hook setting device not self hooking

[@s1opp]

Do you have any underwater footage of it triggering before the fish is hooked? I've watched and rewatched all of the clips I can find, but each time the fish swims away before the twig triggers. Your help is appreciated in advance

[@danielmorris3446]

They have to be hooked to trigger it, this thing just buries the hook so they can't shake it

[@s1opp]

@@danielmorris3446 that's what I'm looking for. A fish that tries to shake the lead, and the twig triggers, then the fish rips off. There's a clip in this video of a fish doing that with a normal rig in this video. In the clips with the twig, the fish just move off before the twig reacts

[@danielmorris3446]

@s1opp yep. Soon as a hook goes in deep enough they usually bolt.. there's also 2 parts of the clip, one where the twig triggers and the Carp takes a few seconds to bolt (exactly as they do with a normal rig) the other the Carp hooked and slowly drifts off

[@gymmad86]

Exactly what I see....looks like another bad gimmick to me. And no response to the thousands of comment about the failed snapping of the arms in his live feed either. That live feed where he attempted to break the arms was what had people banning it before it came out

[@gymmad86]

[@RebelsRogue]

Ali, I'm confused and this is genuine mate, I'm not baiting you but on that footage, the one you took the promo pic from the device hasn't triggered, it's a plain as day. It's still in it's loaded position. Can you please explain that?

[@lennardmeij8763]

is not only with that fish. there is also a video that even after the fight while scooping the fish you can see that the legs are still in it. and I also wonder how strong the mechanism is because you are now playing the fish on only a swifel that is no longer attached to your line.

[@RebelsRogue]

@@lennardmeij8763 I think it's pretty strong as there's a length of 85lb braid between the QC and the swivel. But it doesn't look like it triggers very well. Something is not quite right.

[@moorem99]

We've moved from skillfully fishing with float, stalking, freelining, and ledgering to various bolt rigs where the fish basically hook themselves to end up now relying on a spring loaded trap that hooks the fish for you. To me... this is the pits. Our Eastern European friends might like them to help with their Sunday lunch though.

[@CWCarp]

A point of clarification please......if the device is triggered by the 'forward' weight of force stated on the different packs then I presume you need a greater or equal opposite force (ie the lead or a tight line) to make it trigger?.......so will a 1oz lead on a slack line still trigger the lightest 4.5oz version of device or would that be dependant on the amount of force a fish uses in shaking its head once it feels the hook, ie. would the fish need to exert 4.5 times the force of the 1oz lead to overcome the trigger?......which to my mind means, that the mechanics of the twig are still very much reliant on a sharp hook and decent end rig to make the initial contact, the twig only comes in to play when the hook link is at full stretch ........on a personal note the whole twig looks longer than a lot of rigs I use... EDIT: Some additional thoughts to the above.......Once a fish has pricked its self with sufficient force for the hook to take hold and has moved away for the length of the hook link and then exerted enough force to trigger the twig, how much force is exerted by the recoil of the spring in the twig to set the hook further in to the fish's mouth?......it strikes me that a spring of that size will not have sufficient 'recoil' force to counteract the weight of a moving fish, so driving the hook home is still reliant on the weight of the lead being dragged by the fish via the braided link inside the twig with the spring itself being at full stretch......holding the twig and releasing the hook bait so the spring recoils is all well and good but that isn't what happens in reality......Its more likely that the spring pulls the lead towards the hook rather than the hook towards the lead as the hook end has the weight of the fish in its favour and most Carp definitely weigh more than a lead....

[@chrisdurkin6986]

Angling Times….. says it all. Questions have also been raised by fishery managers over the product design itself too, with many banning its use because of potential fish safety concerns. And there we go, being banned already

Biggest issue you have with it and you need to address it Ali. Is the problem that keeps coming up on why lakes have banned it is the arms that hold the trigger will snag in nets and in weed. I think you must address this to put people mind at ease. I have used a bungee type rig over 30 years ago with no problems. It’s the snag issue that is the problem mate

[@vincentbarwell5943]

And some lakes ban boillies the point is lake owners can be very fussy with what's allowed in lakes

[@niclawrence6637]

Hats off to you Ali for producing a product that gives us anglers an extra edge however, theres a big concern that i like many club waters have which has resulted in the product already being banned... which is, is it safe for the fish? If someone cracks off on cast leaving the entire rig active, if it hooks a fish the lead will drop off but surely that leaves the fish dragging around the open twig system which is then likely to catch on a snag? As much as i like you and the product, fish safety must come first and im yet to see anything from omc covering this with the product

[@SwedishEgg1]

They have banned a product without even seeing it, all the sensible fisheries have said they will check it out themselves and test it to see if it’s safe or not. I doubt Ali would release a product what hasn’t been extensively tested to be safe.

[@niclawrence6637]

@@SwedishEgg1 yeah and that was my response to them too. When you think about how the rig would be after a crack off though, surely its like the fish would be hooked and dragging an anchor around so doesn't seem like it would be safe.. which is why omc need to release something to explain how it would react to a crack off

This has been banned on every lake in my area within 30miles guessin its the same for most others. How is this safe for a start the arms are going to get caught in the landing net and cause damage to the mouth of the fish. Looking at it the fish can lose the lead and the lead clip but looks like it will still have the hooklink like normal and then it will also have the twig with it whats stopping that from getting caught in weed or other line due to the arms sticking out. Also its got the perfect front cover for it showing the twig dont work as its not even gone off.

Will it work reversed so the arms point backwards?

[@DEADB33F]

Seems like a simple and minor redesign would fix the snagging issues that have caused these to be banned at many places. If the arms were joined to the body using thin bits of plastic which act as compliant hinges then they could bend all the way back & forth to prevent snagging. The body would also need a protrusion under the 'hinge' just after the attachment point for the arm to press against to allow it to apply tension to the latch. I hope that makes sense. I'd attach a diagram but youtube doesn't like links in comments.

[@dylandestpern3783]

The mechanics of it dont make sense to me. In order for the spring to engage, pressure in the opposite direction needs to be applied in order to pull the locking arms loose. This pressure is already applied by the fish once the spring is free to "spring" back, meaning that its not really doing much. I hope this makes sense. The pressure to activate it is equal to the tension of the spring meaning that the spring is doing nothing. Am i wrong?

[@mathewking7466]

What about safety and tangle aspects ? On the cast will the hook catch the arms ? Then making it unsafe ? Obviously making u fish all night and day with a useless rig ?? But more importantly making a fish teathered if it picks up the tangled rig ? Serious question

That fish was hooked regardless of if you had a Magic Twig, a normal twig, an old shoelace or anything else attached to it. It's the same with the other video.

Indeed where are we going ? we have an exhaustable amount of edges The carp has only one ..its survival instinct ! Once we overcome that its time to call it a day.

Catching anglers not fish

[@jimmyboimazarti1234]

Never seen so many people cry about abit of tackle it’s proper sad 😂

[@Darren14]

Like something off Wish

[@catalickconverta6823]

That underwater dude pushes the lead into the silt an lays it all out with bait perfectly😂 if you want a self triggering device put a waggler on and strike when it goes under😂

[@fatfish6763]

Looks like an anchor works like an anchor . Its the magic anchor . Tie a spring loaded anchor to your rig today no fish is getting away . Imagine if it was bigger one size up

[@bryn3652]

The EA has made a statment saying the rig is illegal on public waters and anyone using it could be fined £50.000.

[@SevernValleyRatters]

Not 100% hook rate, watch Underfishing’s own videos. If it need that much pressure to trigger, then it’s already hooked.

[@lewisgoodwin4]

But most waters have band it now in England..???

[@lewisadkins8213]

No they haven't. Some lakes are saying they want to see them used to access the safety. Don't believe the stories on social media. You can say the same about leadcore rigs. A good amount of lakes ban them but people still buy them.

[@lewisgoodwin4]

Then that's when you get leadless leaders, safe zone leaders.

[@lewisgoodwin4]

No reply then..??? As you some lake's want to see it but most lake's have banned it.

[@OMCYouTube]

Allowed two of most famous day ticket complex’s in the land Linear Fisheries & Todber Manor and hundreds of venues across the country. Please don’t believe the hate, listen to the facts.

[@yokev6780]

@@OMCKZbinFarlows is the busiest day ticket lake in the country, and they banned it immediately.

[@IrenaExnerova-yw9wl]

Hey guys, is there any possibility of Czech subtitles please? Cheers

[@soulnsurf]

As from a couple of days ago SW Water have banned these on ALL their waters.

[@lespaul3717]

Instantly, I think the massive first failure is the fact that the arms open like an anchor facing where the fish would be dragging it. Surely it would have been wiser to have them opening away from the fish. The way these are designed would mean the fish dragging into snags and underwater plants, that would cause serious damage to the carps mouths. Or they would snap. These things are not exactly cheap, 2 for around £12. You know your stuff Ali, and I have a lot of respect but, I think this is a bad design (maybe try it with concealed arms that don't pop out) and, does it really give you that much edge? I think the hardest part of carp fishing, is getting the fish to put the food in it's mouth and not cheating by locking it in if it does!! Also, for this to be really effective, you would have to use barbed hooks, which I am really against!!

[@danielpolsinger7565]

The underwater footage proves nothing at all. Every single one of those fish gets hooked and swims away without the twig being activated. You would have caught all of them without the twig.

7:03 didnt go off tho?

[@maggiefishing9685]

You can mock the product all you like (I am not in favour of it for the record) but you can't knock the market campaign in terms of social media interactions. Regardless of if this product is succesful or not, more people now know about OMC for better or for worse. Ali is a marketing man, this product will undoubtedly fail and be gathering dust in many tackle shops in years to come but either way, this launch will be a success for him.

Went to a very well run Norfolk DT water today. An A4 piece of paper stuck to the area we're you pay for your ticket read 'OMC magic twig is banned on this fishery'. Not much point me buying this product.
