Should have said earlier, happy new year! I'm getting bac6to fishing after a 20yr hiatus, still using my old OTG equipment, Zzipplex 2500GTX 13ft and a Shimano Aerlex 8000. Watching your videos refreshes my memories of what to do. Thanks. I do appreciate these tutorials. And if your ever home I do hope to catch you on the beach.

Great content. I was freshwater fishing most of my life, fell in love with saltwater fishing. I'm in Southern California so pier fishing was the start...not thrilled with pier fishing so I moved to surf fishing...addicted now. Where I'm at, limited to perch and halibut for the most part so I moved on now to Leopard Sharks, Shovelnose and Rays. Your vids are helping me with the casting...my biggest problem now is sinkers. If I chunk an 8 oz pyramid sinker out 75 meters, it will move laterally about 50-75 meters in 15-20 minutes. Sputniks grapple massive kelp we have which sucks so I've ordered some Hatteras sinkers. Wish me luck!

Have never been able to get on with fixed spools for beach fishing. A short plop out 40-50yds with a bass rod, or when spinning. But casting 5oz+ leads? I just cant cast one smoothly to save my life 😄😄 Am definitely going to have more practice to it though, so can make a confident switch over to using braid for the sensitivity and lower tide resistance

Couple of tips there have helped me Billy. I used to put too much leader on the reel and did indeed end up with braid wrapped around the rod after some casts. Luckily no snap-offs. Keep hands high is another good point as it adds more leverage to the cast enabling a further throw with the same effort. The only issue with off the ground casting is the tackle needed. When using a regular clipped down rig to the lead or Gemini (Other brands are available haha) rig clip, the hook will fall out. To remedy this you have to use a more expensive clip method such as a Gemini Splash Down.

Hi Billy, all good points. Obviously OTG won't work for any clipped down rigs but I need a Mr Sniffles to practice my casting. I do use 40lb braid with 60lb mono with an FG knot and no problems with line crack off. I do sometimes see the mono slowing down the cast causing a few main line issues from time to time. Will certainly look at braid but does the braid shock leader get easily damaged on rocks, barnacles etc? I know many who use tapered mono with braid too. What knots would you recommend from main line to leader and leader to clip? Great video 👍 tight lines and have a good Christmas and New year.

The real is a lurekiller 8000, on the reel should be positioned as low as possible !

Only me again Billy, I'm just changing my shock leaders to braid, do you use the BF knot for that and the rubbing leader ?

The braid-braid leader didn't make any sense to me, I dont quite understand. Dont you need a shock leader that stretches?
@Billyfishing_watch
@Billyfishing_watch 4 ай бұрын
No, the braid is the leader. Abrasion isn't a problem it just needs to be able to support the weight of casting!

@@Billyfishing_watchinteresting thanks for replying, never seen a system like that. my current system is similar to Phill Dale's from Skarnsundet fishing (35lb braid mainline via double uni to 80lb braid a few meters as a carrying leader for a smoother transition and then 2-3 rod lengths 80lb mono shock leader which youre casting from).

I haven’t watch all your videos so you may have addressed this. You are right handed but you put your left hand at the reel and right hand above even though there is a lot of rod below the reel. I guess you have a really long rod and want to space your hands pretty far apart. I have Penn Carnage III 11’ rod with a Penn Spinfisher 6500 reel. If I do it your way I’ll run out of rod length. Cheers from the Texas Gulf Coast

Hi TX. Yes, that rod is 15 ft long. But that not the all of the story. I will make a video about it soon. But everything else in the video, you can apply why to your fishing. Thanks Brother 👍😁

I thought my 0.70 mm mono leader was the way to go on my braided main line - good to know. It rattles annoyingly when practicing my casting. It's a timebomb waiting to go off...

Would 40lb 4 strand be much worse than 8 bud?
@Billyfishing_watch
@Billyfishing_watch 2 жыл бұрын
4strand is cheaper, but 8 strand casts much better on that type of spool. But if you use a long cast spool, you could use 10 or 15lb 4 strand. Hope this helps out 👍👌
