Winter Waggler Fishing for Silvers and F1's - Andy May - Partridge Lakes

[@shaq157]

Jamie and Andy make by far the best commercial fishing videos on the box. Helped my fishing no end this last year or so

[@fletcherm007]

Andy, great demo of plumbing up - a tip I got many years ago was once plumbed up, hold hook at top of cork handle and observe which rod ring was nearest bottom of float - then if you had to set up again, you could get correct depth once more using rod rings as guidance! Cheers

[@BigT90]

That's a great tip, glad I came across this comment

[@antonystanley4171]

Every time I watch any of your videos you set me off wanting to go and have a local session on the bank. Keep up all your hard work boys and thank you for all you teach us 💪👍

[@johnberwick5321]

[@stevenmorgan9385]

I followed the advice and method in this video and won our waggler match last week. All I can say is a huge thanks, Andy, for passing on your expertise.

[@lukebamford91]

Keep al these videos comming . Loving all the tips on how to catch the fishiees.. or the wobbly one if u manage in the cold weather . 👍 keep it going andy

[@royb1001]

Great info and crackin' sense of humour.

[@raybailey7745]

Nice to see some waggler fishing handy my favourite of all time

[@daimotownsend1548]

Thanks Andy I always enjoy your videos full of useful info

[@jackelliott8607]

Great video! Andy is great and really does know what he's doing!

[@leegarner6013]

Quality video and tips as usual.

[@sergeykartashov994]

I have got the reel punch in punch alike in video... it's perfect

[@robshaw3655]

struggling a bit to put so many small shot on line, bearing in mind its a loaded float why not just use a bigger shot either side or better still a couple of rubber float stops either side slid on the line and no locking shot at all. Adjusts easier and quicker and no chance of coming off and then having to put another shot on. Great vids to watch on a cold winters night..

[@tommos16]

Excellent, as always!!

[@lukebamford91]

What other tips do you have to catch more fish in the cold weather.. when it can be much harder than usual? And whats best rig and bait for winter time for skimmers and the bigger silvers?

[@chrismichael9591]

I’m just starting out with coarse fishing from fly fishing. Brilliant video learned so much from your videos. If fishing at 1.5 foot would you still use 3 dropper stotz? When moving to 4 dropper stotz at 6 foot+ is that the max you would use at any depth or if fishing say 13-18 foot would you go to 5? Thanks!

[@neilmason158]

Great video, rather fish this way

[@nathanfogg9758]

Great video top tips

[@shaun1961hodge]

When you are plumbing how much line is sitting on the bottom?

[@Hunt3r342]

ooooosh Enjoyed that one

[@andrewpartington8642]

Another great informative video Andy, thank you. Can i ask a question of you, or anyone could answer really. What is the reason for referring to fishing line as how thick it is, rather than the breaking strain?

[@WinningWays]

Generally it is a lot more consistent, breaking strains are often well under rated depending on manufacturers.

[@andrewpartington8642]

Thank you, but that doesn't answer my question at all. A Drennan 0.16 line might well be better than a Maxima 0.16 line. I just want to know when i ask the question "What breaking strain you got on?" Why would anyone say "0.16"?

[@WinningWays]

Because breaking strains are all over the place, some companies will well under rate the breaking strain so you think, oh this is strong. Others might over rate it so you think, oh that’s fine for 6lb line. Diameters are a measurable thing, so most match anglers tend to use it, especially when referring to pole line and hooklengths. Just one of those things, same as you refer to poles in meters and depth in feet and inches. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@andrewpartington8642]

Thanks for taking the time to respond Winning Ways

[@simonbriscoe8324]

Hey Rich, is there a follow up video to this with Andy on the pole?

[@WinningWays]

It's an excerpt from one of the older vimeo films - You can watch the full thing on All Access kzbin.info/www/bejne/nniVfKCvjZyHqtE

Q. what rod are you using ?

[@WinningWays]

It will have been one of the MAP Parabolix back when we filmed this one.

[@connorscoarsefishingjourne7680]

Top lake !

[@bradders1017]

I’ve watched your more recent video of bomb vs waggled and you don’t plumb the depth when on the float method, when doing this how do you ensure you aren’t missing the bites? I’ve always been taught to use a flat the way you do in this video rather than the way you do in the video I mentioned. Hope that makes sense

[@WinningWays]

Generally you will always plumb up if fishing on the deck, if you are fishing a pellet waggler, so fishing shallow, then you won’t need to plumb up, but it’s always good to have a rough idea of the depth you are fishing over.

[@bradders1017]

Winning Ways Thanks for replying :) Makes sense, I usually fish from the bottom but I get so worked up finding the truth depth at longer ranges so maybe I can try fishing more shallower and seeing how I get on. Thanks again :)

[@richardbarrett7544]

Andy. Do you put the stots on the line with anything?

[@WinningWays]

Just by hand/mouth :)

[@richardbarrett7544]

@@WinningWays I'd like to see that with a size 10s Ha! Ha! thanks mate.

[@Jon-qq8hb]

How often and how much do you feed when priming the other lines? Thanks

[@WinningWays]

Totally dependent on venue, stock and time of year. It can be as little as 20 maggots every half hour, but other venues in the warmer months will need a lot more!

[@neilmajor1056]

Hi guys, great video. When targeting silvers on the waggler would you recommend balling in ground bait?

[@WinningWays]

There are times when groundbait can play a part on the waggler, but generally maggots and caster are the best option, especially if you don't know the venue too well as you can catch anything that swims.

[@matthewnightingale4585]

Informative and entertaining but sadly spoilt by the poor quality sound. Need to think about where the microphone is.

[@WinningWays]

Matthew Nightingale wow, we’ll admit there was a bit of volume drift when Andy turned around a few times. But to say it spoiled it is a bit harsh 😂 We’ll try harder next time 😱
