TA|Insights | Volume Two | Chapter Seven | Short Session Angling | Ben Hamilton

There aren’t many people out there with unlimited time to angle in, most have full time jobs and family commitments that keep them busy. Fishing is therefore an often-fleeting experience but is no less important and shouldn’t mean with the right amount of effort, no less successful than anyone else.
Ben Hamilton has always fished short sessions, and his approach is solely based on small windows of opportunity where he has to make his time count. He doesn’t make it easy for himself either, as we join him on his current target water, the ultra-busy, and highly demanding Burghfield, home to one of the biggest living carp in the UK!

What an excellent demonstration of how to use limited time effectively. Superb angling!

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck in your angling, Tim!

[@justinsteel6360]

Ben is just a humble hardworking guy. Big fan. Nicest guy in modern angling

[@charliegreen1989]

Quality bit of filming, really enjoyed it. Only being able to fish short sessions at the moment found it helpful and has given me something to think about.

[@frankwarwick8068]

[@petercollins647]

What's the hooklink material he's using guys? TIA

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

Hi Peter, Ben used Tungskin in his film. If you want more details on the hook link here is a link to the website -> thinkinganglers.com/portfolio/tungskin/

[@petercollins647]

Thanks, is it a semi stiff/stiff material?

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

@@petercollins647 It is a semi stiff to soft material, almost an in between hook link as it were

[@alanhaigh9682]

We always used peanuts and tigers, over maples always work anywhere

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

Highly rated particles!

[@rossrackham7747]

Are we sure Terry Hearn isn’t his father?

[@j.m140i7]

When showing the rig you use you say it’s 8” that’s more like 12” maybe more

[@chucky1golf]

Neville turned into a Fox overnight??

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

The shots for the film were gathered over a couple of short trips, Martin. Ben simply swapped his alarms for one of them that's all.

[@schelliani]

4 or 5 feet Leadcore straight to the rig.. very dangerous Rig.

[@ThinkingAnglersTV]

Not at all, hen used properly lead core is perfectly safe to use

[@schelliani]

@@ThinkingAnglersTV dont get me wrong i Love your products and KZbin video’s. But a line break is always possible. I would never fish like that.
