I wanted come over say hi but I thought I'd leave Andy too it. Top bloke, tip tips.
Informative and entertaining as always, thanks Andy and Sonubaits. It's nice to have some alternatives when "Cum on the fishes" alone isn't working 🤣🐟
Brilliant Andy , ive learnt so much from you and Jay . Thanks Andy
What a great set of very practical tips for all of us to improve our fishing.
Thanks Andy for all your great videos
Andy did you see Angling Times last week the picture of Jamie was legendary it was so good I was laughing 😂for an hour.
Trust in pink 🤣👌🏻 always use a pink or a white wafter/sinker for me 🎣
It's good to see even the best have to mess about to get bites sometimes.. I like a 3inch hooklength but use 4s out of laziness 🙄
You forgot to mention Andy that if your not getting bites,look anywhere apart from at the tip and the rod will get pulled in.
Works every time!😂
Class as usual Andy, can I ask are you still coaching
Lovely Andy Thank you
Great video as ever. Well done Andy and the crew. Quick question, what did you mean when you said you had to start off on a bomb in a match, rather than the method?
Watched this last night, went to Weston today and picked up 39 fish, thank you sonubaits and Andy! 🙂
Fantastic video. I just ordered KKH bayonet ready tied 4” hook lengths, would I have been better off with the MCMs…. thanks
Am I correct in thinking that the connector bead is for an ICL and not the bead recommended from an ICS….I much prefer using this connector on this system
The good thing Andy is your showing that even on the best days thing don't always go right to you have to make changes brilliant
Would it be a good idea to go 2” hook length to start with
Glad you didn’t cut out the long dead spell, real life fishing going through the steps to get em caught 👍
Andy a bit left field but I know you’re generally helpful. I noticed you’re on the absolute 36 box. Are you tall. I’m 6’ 3” and just bought one of these and on first sitting on it it seems quite small against my matrix s36. (I’m only getting shot of the matrix because the clips are pants) I know I can buy stackers to make it higher but the footplate seems short too. Any thought other than send it back 😂
Been a specimen hunter since the 70's and always something new that can be learnt, very interesting explanation of how you go about your fishing. Thanks.. 😎🍐
Really enjoyed this Andy coaching at its best thank you for sharing your tips with us many thanks .
Top tips from a top man!. Explains thoroughly what to do when fine tuning is required. Superb artisan at work here! We live and learn from the best on you tube!!!!
Andy may gets better and better at explaining these tactics. I've learnt more off him than any other angler who does these videos. Well done to all
Ps, probably one of the best vids yet, and I'm sure you'll be pleased to know, I have watched a few.
Am I right? The feeder is just sat on top of the quick change bead? The bead does not, erm plug into the feeder in any way?
Funny how when he uses sonubaits he stops being a fishing catching machine 🤔
Great info buddy .. I do well by using a pellet from sonubaits ..in stead of a wafter … & still on a 4 inch hook length … cheers Chris & Sam
Now that was good! I’m not the only one talking the fish on then😀 thanks Andy and the team
20 minutes of Andy saying "come on" …….best Angling tuition I have watched in ages..
Best one I've seen. Come on the Andy Mays!👍😁
That arena lake is nuts, there is nothing small in there, the 'little' ones are five or six pounds, make sure your tackle is robust, do not fish it like its a normal commercial lake or you can say ta-ra to your rig and elastic.
Andy is 10 outta 10 with how he describes stuff I'm going to use all this when I go Sunday perfect tutorial
brilliantly explained Andy on how to method feeder fish properly, loved all the video Thank you and Sonubait's ❤
Absolutely brilliant video Andy and crew. So much information I can take into my own fishing and couldn’t agree more with the comment about having to work things out as your going, keep the videos coming.
Should have been feeding maggot with a wagler!!!!
Tucked blood knot Andy you are using for tying the hook attachment.
This is one of the best teaching videos you,ve done so far. Really well explained your thinking for the changes to make bites into hook-ups. Thankyou.
Quality tutorial💯 I’ve recently approached the whole match fishing side after being an avid carper for years & my favourite methods are the method feeder and a strong margin pole👌🏻 this video has deffo learnt me something new & Andy is brilliant to watch👍🏻
Good job mate,keep it up,hello from Serbia 🇷🇸❤️
One of the best tutorials I've seen in decades, to me they're always better when the angler has to work through why they aren't catching instantly, it makes the thought process and progression through the changes a good deal more understandable I think.
