Great video

[@rhcpschipper]

Nice video! What’s with the keychain used on the landing net? That looks very handy thing to use with my Westin net. Thanks!

[@bickleysanglingadventures5866]

Brilliant Video Thom and Westin keep them coming, what net are you using Thom

[@marcelfishing]

Great video mate,can you please tell me what reel you are using?

[@schsch73]

Any chance of a video or direct me to a link or a previous one - showing the braid flouro lure connections including knows swivels etc. ? I have knotable wire and fluro links but on the BFS/Light end whats best?

[@Masophere]

I always feel rude fishing right near someone's boat but I'm new to this so I don't know much 😂

[@BF4pawntard]

The gear is absolutely amazing and all my predator rods are now westin from my drop shot to heavy pike . Shame they don’t make reels as I would be all over them

[@ChimpHat424]

What measuring mat are you using please?

[@eurynomos76]

Great, Informative video. I love the T&C range, I have been using a w3 7-21g for a couple of years now. I’m thinking of getting the 2-10g one. Do you have a 1000 reel on it ? Knowing the rod I have (7-21g) I can use 21g without any problems I would think a little bit heavier wouldn’t be a problem either. Is this the case with the 2-10g also? Best Regards

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Yes I like small reels for light lures, short distance casting. Some people like larger it’s really up to you. The 2-10g can probably throw a little more than 10g, but not too much more, that’s where your 7-21g comes in perfectly

[@elwooddestiny11blues20]

When are us tackle tarts getting the new Westin-Fishing carrier bag to weigh our perch ? Im being serious . Lmao .

[@Thomhuntfishing]

New Westin weigh sling in small size is just out! Rubberised mesh on the bottom to drain water and perfect size for perch and small-medium Zander

[@jaroslavpetracek2188]

Nice video Thom - which reel you are using in this video? Regards from czech republic 🙂

[@Thomhuntfishing]

I think it’s a small Japanese reel, 1000 size is main thing I like for light fishing

[@edwingroot4751]

which rod from the w6 series should I buy if I want to dropshot at distance and throw with 5 to 7 grams shets?

[@westinfishing]

Hi Edwin! To be honest there are no rod specially made for long range dropshot but try the W6 Dropshot or W6 Finesse T&C 5-15 gram.

[@jonatanhansson3386]

Hej! Är sedan länge ett Westin-fan. Jag tänkte köpa ett Westin Streetstick w3 2nd 8.1 fot 5-15g. Passar det spöt till regnbågs fiske , havsöring och aborre samt mindre gädda? Och passar den ihop med en 2500 rulle eller ska man ha mindre rulle? Mvh

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Hi there, yes Street Stick is great and one of our best sellers. Perfect for Perch, Trout, small pike etc 👍🏻 On 8’ rod yes I would go with 2500 size reel 👍🏻

[@wedkarskabracgdynia7582]

Nice👍

[@TheFishingDaddy]

Thanks thom as always videos are always spot on. I'm now starting to have more confidence letting the lure drop to the bottom but accepting the fact i will lose lures in the process but im deffo catching more fish rather than just doing straighr retrieves

[@russellkirkbride3373]

What knot is best for tying flurocarbon to jig heads please as I'm not sure

[@nerdrage4852]

palomar knot :)

[@andreacipolla5141]

Hi, where is this canal? Close to which village? (I am from abroad so I am not to fish there but I want to loook in google maps). Thanks

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Hi there, its near Leamington Spa town

[@Ownz1982]

Great video. I do not like u handle fish with dry hands !! And then release

[@ballkeeper6662]

could you do this type of fishing from a wheelchair ?

[@markevansangling]

Absolutely! And thanks to canal tow paths you should have good access, especially on venues like the one in this video on the Grand Union. Get out there and give it a go! Tight lines!
