Brilliant video guys and something different to the normal instructional videos we normally see on KZbin. Well done.

[@wilsonsully3578]

Brilliant concept, and well delivered...Nice one!

[@matchfishingwithdickie1652]

Nice one guys great video and reviews

[@patrickwalker2509]

Excellent video...keep them coming; nice to see nonsponsored and top anglers commenting on content + criticism that's believable It's pity Drennan doesn't make a quality reel at an affordable price

[@scottwalmsley3393]

great episode guys, there is a 14ft aventus distance feeder in the guru range, got to agree with tom with the reels i was the same diawa or shimano but i feel shimano has taken a step backwards lately in the coarse range,freezing groundbait no way, don't see the need any not used bag up and expel the air to stop it going bad and keep in the fridge just like maggots...all the best scott

[@kevinwoods3099]

Great format, suggestion for further episodes...............Cadence tacke...........I use their 10' feeder rod and I think its fantastic for £80. Like to see their pole on test.

[@bigbeano2695]

[@andrewlee4805]

Got an Octbox D36. I fish rivers, never commercials. For me, a bit too agricultural. Heavy, cumbersome, maybe bought the wrong box for the type of fishing I do. Bombproof for flat tracks, but feel not the best for natural venues. Just my thoughts, for what they are worth.

[@delwigzieful]

I have a free spirit distance feeder rod in my opinion much better than a guru aventus the guru rod price point is ridiculous £475 im sorry but the guru aventus rod which i have used is way overpriced in my opinion you can find better for less free spirit rods are absolutely brilliant hand built great range of rods the freespirit company i fished the river wye this summer caught barbel to 14LB 8OZ i can cast a coconut to the horizon with my free spirit i recommend this company to everyone great customer service top class rods at sensible prices i have seen the octbox seatbox looks very well built guru aventus £475 you have got to be kidding me guru ALIEN

[@delwigzieful]

Exactly my friend guru everything they make is well overpriced just because It's korda your leeda drayton was made by leeda when leeda was leeda i have a leeda combo 20ft i would not ever get shut of it classic as for this guru aventus rod seriously It's made by daiwa £475 i would never pay that for any rod buddy honestly It's a joke there are lots of rods out there that are much better but there is gear made to catch the angler and not the fish well they won't catch us 2 buddy take care ALIEN

[@StueEFC]

Still wouldn’t pay near 400 quid for a rod..my daiwa ninja match £50 an daiwa ninja £59.99 feeder rods will do jus fine

[@34136TS]

Preston Extremity 620 = Browning Compact 855 : Browning EU understand feeder fishing.

[@thejoker7323]

Great video guys...Ant & Dec need to watch out :-)

[@123reetlad]

Great idea but what about a give away every episode :)

[@neilwatt5497]

Lol 😂! Lol.😅! Long how Long of a chuck and what method? I know something important and you're eye end tip ring needs to be at 90 degrees! ..Tight lines 👍

[@niklasprice1049]

not sure i buy the unbiased part, dave said he uses 2 mixes of Pro-bait, most Anglers make up a cross-over mix of groundbait

[@Jan007524]

Nice rod, but a prohibitive cost for many.

[@delwigzieful]

Absolutely agree guru aventus £475 you have got to be kidding me guru ALIEN

[@stevebennett7559]

stevebennett well done you two different but entertaining
