Good to see you happy again Martin and love your new rod and reel good to see you enjoying yourself again tight lines till the next one

[@Mick-Hoyle]

Martin your a top man+your lives introduced me to watching my friend thank you 🙏👍

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Wow, thanks

[@timclarke1791]

Martin close your bail arm over with your hand when lure fishing with braid every time you cast and check the braid is on spool before reeling in ..it takes a bit to get used too but stops wind knots every time with practice it will come naturally ..ps caught plenty bass on the seeker stick with it amazing lures 👍🏻👍🏻

[@TheAutisticAngler]

sounds tricky, but i'll give it a go, thanks

[@stevenewell6898]

Great to see you back Martin and doing what you love.... Absolutely delighted you liked my kit enough to get nearly the same set up.... Just for clarity my sedona is also the 2500. By BG rod is 9ft 6 and rated to 42grams.....the only real difference is I've gone for 18lb diawa J braid with a 20lb flouro leader to cover a variety of venues.... I've never had issues with wind knots but as others have said its worth wetting the braid before you start and I also wet it when putting it on the spool for the first time.... It would be good to maybe meet up for a session sometime soon and we can try it together 😊 anyway keep smiling mate... You're a top man 👍

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Thanks Steve, sorry I meesed your name up. I was thinking of daiwa j braid as ive got it on my beach setuo, plus i was thinking of 18lb too, thanks for that. I'm more than happy to meet up for a session mate.

[@stevenewell6898]

No problem with my name.... I'll answer to most things haha.... Bit busy this coming week but maybe one day week after if you're free we can go try some lure fishing together..

New reel, new rod well done Martin you deserve it they look superb, confidence catches fish, if your happy the fish will come. Nice to have you back, we all have those times your lucky you have loads of friends and support. Tight lines mate

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Thanks John, confidence is rising, with every session.

[@bazontherocks7159]

Good to see you smiling again Martin. You will get wind knots in both mono or braid, especially with a strong side wind or when the wind is from behind, the trick to cutting down on wind knots is to minimize the amount of slack line during the cast. I stop any extra line going out, the second the lure hits the water, because the line will still be coming off the reel at the same speed you cast it at, then either wind fast until you get all the slack line gathered up or lift the rod tip to take as much slack line up as possible. Hope that makes sense Martin, and hope it helps.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Thanks for your tips Baz

[@laurenceplumbing3533]

Your a great guy martin, your videos bring a lot of happiness to a lot of us. Well done to the guy who let you try his rod and reel. There is a lot of good ideas and info about lure angling on youtube, thats were ive learnt a lot about how to use different lures. I often take a second rod to cast out a bait and leave it out while i am lure fishing. Stay confident with using lures, all anglers have good days and blank days .thanks for making these videos,

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Thank you Laurence

[@alanblackford2962]

Nice to see that you have treated yourself to some new tackle. I have just bought two telescopic beach casters so I can nip out on my bicycle to the beach. I also still have a Beachcaster built by my dad from a blank in 1960 and it gets used.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

That's good to hear, no point in throwing away a perfectly good rod.

[@kentsportcast]

Hi Martin, so glad to see your smile is back. I found your video very informative & especially enjoyed seeing you having fun with your new set up. Buying essential tools for the job doesn't make you a tackle tart surely lol. Keep thinking Martin, you are helping sort my problems with lures out 🤗

nothing like a new rod and reel to keep a fisherman happy well done martin keep up the good work

[@d1g1taldan]

Hi Martin, I fish right where you were at Langstone and do pretty well. One thing I would say is that braid is far too light, and will certainly cause more wind knots. Stick to 15lb - 20lb, and go for the best quality braid you can afford. I use daiwa j-braid. Super entertaining video as always. Brightened up my day.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Thanks Dan. i am thinking of getting some J-braid for this as i use it on my battles and love it.

[@hatchie61fish-on29]

I love it when a plan cames together Martin,love the rod love the reel and love you keep it up buddy. Entertainment is Brill and nice to see ya back,Espicely when ya get excited.

[@roybigg9729]

Dear AA just hit on your clips nice to see gives encouragmeant to newbee,s ect on this clip I would of put a swivel on to stop the line knots and twist you get on fixed spool reels and if it's hard fishing cut a feather rig down to 4 and then your lure swivel feathers swivel lure nice one, I liked you trout outing hope you enjoyed eating them I'm no expert far from it but as long as we are enjoying our selves that's the main thing all the best

[@richard3822]

Loving your videos, glad to see you feeling happier. Might be worth wetting the braid with some water before casting to help avoid the wind knots.

Looks a better set up but I prefer mono to braid my choice.I reckon your Bombarda rig will be a lot better now with the lighter set up nice to see you back and positive.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

I'm tempted to go mono. Not sure yet whether to chuck out 40g on this 35g rod.

[@glencronin1592]

I had the same problem with 12lb braid, so I upgraded to 20lb braid problem solved mate. Loose a bit of length on casting but no wind knots.👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Ok, thanks for that glen, i'm not sure what to go for now, i've tried some 35 that i had spare and it's way too heavy. Trouble is though, i loved the feel and the distance of the 8lb. I do need the distance at that spot too. hmm

[@glencronin1592]

@@TheAutisticAngler Martin try putting a swivel spring clip onto your lure stopping the line twisting, that helps with knots, if your lure spins and goes into the line that will also gives knots when casting. 👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣

[@mchipperfield]

Martin, good to see you so enthused. There us something about a nice balanced outfit and chucking lures. Fish Langstone from time to time, make use of weedless soft plastics, unweighted, doesn't stop weed problems but feel it helps.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Lots to think about, thank you

[@chrisowenuk3792]

Nice video Martin, nice to see you using single hooks on lures, you need to try the Savage Gear sandeel great lure for Bass, cast a long way. Tight lines Martin

Trebles trouble the fish, if i catch them, and they trouble me too lol

Nice one Martin,👍 surface lures between the weed early morning and in the evening you’ll have some explosive fun!!🎣🐟👍 I’ve got some lures you can have mate, you’d have to collect though as I’m currently self isolating I’ll even put a seeker in there😂😂

Martin glad you're feeling better. Nice new rod and reel as one of your other followers said try wetting your braid before you start fishing I pore small bottle of water on mine . It helps. We're are you going next? . Steve

[@TheAutisticAngler]

yep, i didn't wet before, i normally just have a sort cast then further, but didn't even think about it in my excitement.

[@hatchie61fish-on29]

10lb mono I use for spinning,and braid does get knots

[@TheAutisticAngler]

That's what i was thinking about

[@hatchie61fish-on29]

It sounds like a knot in your line

[@TheAutisticAngler]

It was

[@hatchie61fish-on29]

Martin stop using braid mate that always happens to me go back to mono.

[@TheAutisticAngler]

I might do, just not sure yet Peter

[@peterchessell28]

Easy way to stop wind knots some silicone spray Gt 80 or wd 40 the silicone variation not the ordnary that would just be silly, spray it as you put it on the spool pausing every 10 metres or so I use braid down to 6lbs never had a wind knot . Its a american trick they are so far ahead of us lure fishing wise we are lonely.
