I dont know what it is about your guys videos but I can't get enough of them .....keep them coming because I enjoy watching them.....stay safe....and lines tight......

Thanks for tuning in Jed i. Have fun watching all that other content 😘

[@VendettaFishing]

thank you guys for making this video, really funny. Even though you're isolating, you're still violating too much! these Videos are great and entertaining especially during lockdown. Might get a ike rod (and use it for casting frogs at targets during lockdown)

[@SnaggedBro]

No worries bro 👊🏼

[@frankhenoch7142]

Great video! First one of yours I’ve seen. Just subscribed. Thanks!

[@SnaggedBro]

Nice! You've got a lot to binge through! Enjoy!

I also like the Revo Beast with the svartzonker signature rod from Abu Garcia more

[@SnaggedBro]

We also like the Beast! Nice combo that mate!

I realize Im kind of off topic but does anybody know a good website to stream new movies online ?

Yes Sean You know I'm a big Tom fan But you just smashed that!! I dont know how, but that's my favourite video so far. Favourite fishing spot? Fly fishing for stickleback on the river rea. "Ya Bumm"

Cheers mate! Nice one

[@redrambleson9785]

Just looking into my first fishing set up and fancy a baitcaster, happen to be looking at the black max but now you've mentioned the silver I'll have a look at that. Loving the Ike set up you have, if I enjoy it I'll definitely be upgrading to the same set up. New subscriber as I wanna see that Ike in action, keep up the great content

[@redrambleson9785]

Or the Gen Ike combo....

[@SnaggedBro]

Thanks dude! Black or silver are both great combos 👊

[@C_Woods85]

Where did you buy yours from? Silly question but the one I've seen in angling direct the reel handle is on the right....do you have the option to choose? Wanna get one but I want the handle on the left if that makes sense 🤯

[@SnaggedBro]

Yes you need to be careful there! We (like you) also prefer our reel handle on the left! As far as we know most Baitcasters cannot be swapped around. Stay vigilant! Look for one on the other side 👊🏼 Tight lines!

[@steveohim]

do you have a link to that rod and reel? love the colour

[@SnaggedBro]

We don't unfortunately mate

Ireland or Scotland are defo on the list!

[@Samthecarpman]

Do you put backing on before the braid?

[@SnaggedBro]

We don't. But a lot of anglers prefer to do that. Each to their own

[@antlakin6695]

Yes Sean, made me laugh bro, just like Tom's haircut did. 🤣 We fished brum town centre few weeks back, and the black country canal, and wednesbury canal resulted in no pike, a small Zed, and lost an absolute unit of a zed on a da Bush. Was still worth the journey, Stay safe lads

[@SnaggedBro]

Sounds like a good day out tho! Keep casting guys!

[@antlakin6695]

@@SnaggedBroit was a good day out still to be fair. It was a change from fishing the canals at home around manchester that's for sure. Take it easy lads

[@MrFrankieb1]

I recently ordered my first casting rod and reel... I saw a good deal on Black Friday so I went for a Penn reel and Abu Garcia’s Beast X in 20-70 g rod, I received the 45-100 g rod 🤨 sure enough my sausage fingers didn’t press the right option. I don’t have lures heavier than 40 g?! Do I risk trying it out or just send the bugger back, what’s your thoughts?

[@SnaggedBro]

We use bigger baits for pike. Most of our lures are over 40g, I’d say keep it and try out the bigger baits m, get some 40lb braid and you should be good to go!

[@MrFrankieb1]

I’ve got 40 lb braid ready and waiting to be spooled up. Going from a 15-50 g spinning setup, I’m a little worried the rod’s too much of a heavy weight... Cheers for the response dude, appreciate it!

[@PrimalBran]

thanks for making this video really new to fishing been fishing a couple months now, absolutely love carp fishing, wanted to try a new way of fishing with a new species, this is where pike coming into it im really interesting in fishing them but i just really dont know where to start i have veryy little basic knowledge on it all. But im kinda inpatient and want to get straight into the big boy pikes what gear set up would you suggest for big pike and can the set up you show on this video land big pike?

[@SnaggedBro]

We would recommend the set up in this video or a black max combo for a cheaper option 👌

[@AdamMT07]

Was looking into getting the beast X with a 20-70g Abu rod would this reel be good for topwater and spinners? Also I have some lighter lures then 20g would this be an issue with the rod and reel I’m looking at? Thanks

[@SnaggedBro]

I wouldn't want to throw anything under 15g on it. Only beacuse you wouldn't bra able to feel the action of the lure as the tip will be too stiff

[@alantimmons7385]

Ye should have a lot more subscribers cause yer so good

[@SnaggedBro]

Thanks Alan! Kind words!

[@jamesnorman7842]

Whats yhe best knot to tie the wire trace to braid line lads.... been loosin a few lures due to slipping knots...🙏

Maybe try looking at 101knots.com. We use the uni knot ourselves 👌🏼

[@tanyano9]

You talk about the rod at the start and say it has a maximum cast weight of 140grams is this generally the maximum weight you would go for when fishing for canal pike..? thanks

[@SnaggedBro]

Yeah, not many lures go over that to be fair...

[@tanyano9]

@@SnaggedBro Ok many thanks, Im looking at buying my first jerkbait rod and wondered what weight would be the maxiumum I need....?

[@dougseivwright]

Just recently bought Abu Garcia pro max 6ft 6” baitcaster combo 15-45g. What line would you recommend for pike lure fishing?

[@SnaggedBro]

Berkley x9 braid 30lb plus 👌

[@bendavies5746]

Do you guys use a leader with the 40lb braid or go straight through to the lure?

[@SnaggedBro]

We use a leader

[@lh6168]

Good video lads Can you use a fixed spool reel with the Ike rod? Cheers

[@SnaggedBro]

Yes you can, you'll need the spinning version of the Ike rod tough

[@nickheathcock3358]

Great Vid! I've just ordered the Abu black max combo, I think they class it as medium, what size braid would you recommend on it for mainly canal fishing? would be nice if it could be used for pike, perch etc. Forgive my nievety but myself snd my son are pike virgins! Cheers!!

[@SnaggedBro]

Anywhere from 15-30lb I’d recommend for pike fishing on the canals mate. That should save you from some snags also 👌🏼 thanks for watching

Usefull video im giving very serious thought to fishing as my new hobby ( can't do kickboxing any more ) a nice relaxed thing like fishing seems to be the way. Not into sea fishing because the bait stinks and is slimey so are the fish, carp fishing is just too boring. Pike seems to fit the bill. There are some good deals on abu rods n reels on amazon. So i think ill be spending money next month. Can anybody tell me which fishing license i need ?

Nice video sir. I'm a late comer to fishing, an old novice you could say, and at some aspects of the sport in quite good, but at pike fishing - no! My dream fishing trip would be one in which I'm pike fishing for pike on my local river, where there are pike to be caught in abundance, and actually catch one of the buggers - even a little one would do. I've got the gear, the rigs, the lures, the stinking dead baits, the net, the plush, super soft, silky smooth, extra sprung unhooking mat, but will the local pike have go at all the wonderful treats I have lined up for them here? Nope! Is it me? Do pike just not like me? Tench do; rudd do; roach do. Cod, bass and conger eels do, as do fresh water eels. So why not pike? Maybe you have an answer to this conundrum. If so let me know. Raymondo
