One of the best match anglers to come out the country ever for me

[@peterthornton8520]

Another Des master class. All about patience and at the same time working the peg all the time. Priceless

[@captainswoop8722]

Another brilliant video. his videos here and on the Prestons channel have transformed my fishing. Des has such a simple, direct and common sense approach to fishing.

[@waynebridger4998]

I've learnt so much from watching Des. I got the chance to meet him after a charity match at a club water a couple of weeks ago. Had a bad day fishing wise, but meeting Des more than made up for it. Such a humble open gentleman who took an interest in how I got on. Asked me what I was using, all Preston and sonubaits gear of course

[@terrystokley2968]

Des is an absolute Legend and I model my fishing on him. Love his films so much. Keep em coming.

[@Sonubaits]

Cheers Terry!

Great video des cheers mate learnt a lot

[@johnlee2230]

You tube is absolutely great for things like this, learn from the best anglers around & put it into your own fishing, even an average pole angler like myself can only get better with these great videos, thanks 👍

[@stevewilliams6956]

Excellent again Des. Keep it going mate.

[@paulhughes6911]

Superb des everything you do works for me so keep up the vids and i keep learning even after 40 years of fishing thanks

Yet another great video keep them coming 🎣🎣🎣

[@douglewis2280]

Another excellent informative video thanks Des

[@paulbaxter2964]

I Agree with Terry below, I try to put into practice what Des does, not always to plan lol but never the less very informative & great to watch & try on a similar venue, just enjoy these, looking forward to these being a monthly trend, keep up the good work, you are looking better Des Keep well, Many thanks

[@mickyw4619]

Des,great video as usual,one question can you reuse any pellets with the oil on for another day?

[@Sonubaits]

Cheers Paul, appreciate the feedback! What would you like to see in the future?

[@Sonubaits]

@@mickyw4619 Yes, definitely, the oil will keep well and you can even prep the pellets in oil prior to your days fishing.

[@mickyw4619]

@@Sonubaits Great,thanks for the reply.

[@paulbaxter2964]

@@Sonubaits I am an avid watcher of all the Sonubaits & Preston videos, being of the older / mature generation like Des LOL I just try to be a better angler & win or frame in my local club matches, so there is nothing I will not try, I Am average on most disciplines but not master of any, it would be nice just to make things happen like Des. he has covered most things so these are for me just fine tuning, from the initial set up to his thought process why he does something a certain way, Will Des be doing the last DVD set of Think fishing, just need the last set. many thanks

[@denniswilliamrobbins3031]

Hi Des another great video good idea about the band and hope the goat didn’t upset your fishing lol

[@jamesmitchell5383]

Fantastic tips even more educated thankyou 👍🎣😉

[@krisreynolds9101]

Des shipp what a legend this man is 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👍🏻

[@stuartdye2142]

Great video you make it look so easy Des when its hard thanks 👍🏻

[@tomcaswell6431]

Excellent video, so much to learn from it. I'd personally definitely be using a backshot, especially with that side breeze.

[@Rob-di7uu]

Really good Dez, I never saw this vid before .but fished same peg on last Friday. I mixed hard pellets with some corn , the corn appeared the best on my visit 👍

[@johnlewis-mcginn1016]

Great informative video on pellet fishing, keep them coming please👍

[@Sonubaits]

Thanks John, Shipp's Tips is a monthly series - what would you like to see next from Des?

[@stugraham9067]

Feeder on river once closed season ends

[@barryjaques3065]

nice 1 Des, good tips there. keepem coming

[@julien1]

make your own fish oil by the gallon .. buy four/ five tins of sardines around £4 and 2 to 5 litre vegetable oil (corn or rape seed oil is good). Open your sardines crush them (better still blend with some oil) and add to your veggie oil, shake contents twice a day and leave in a cool place for a few days use as needed.

[@mikeoxley6303]

Nice and educational I would like one of those Sonubaits hoodies but I am a 4XL

[@leeemery9796]

If you can’t learn from des you best take up golf 🎣🎣🎣

[@trevorchapman9050]

Top stuff

[@topfuelteddy]

Cheers Des , can I ask after seeing the bog roll footy challenge , did he ever play footy at a decent level as he looked like he had great skill ?

[@waynebridger4998]

Would love to see a video of how to read waters

[@anglinginminduk8138]

We are based in Hampshire, looking for people who are willing to openly speak about their struggles on video, also be filmed whilst fishing and maybe doing some teaching videos. All videos will be uncut, as I believe in 100% transparency and honesty.

[@daimotownsend1548]

Would you still use the same tactic if you fishing top kit plus 2 etc or in the middle of the swim?

[@andythompson5479]

Hi Des. No backshot on the rig? Any particular reason?

[@MatheusHenrique-pu4zf]

Legal traçar massa para o Brasil

[@mattmatt6878]

Really enjoyed this Des and Sonu, something I've not tried alot of banded pellet on the deck. Shallow yes and same way you hook them. Is it better to band the pellet or having them hair rigged? Does it affect the presentation or just what you do 👍😊
