Its a like a Russian roulette. Its fun, exciting, but when it hits... boom! My advice take a spare/secondary reel and rod set.

What about for sea rishing

The best way to tune your real is with diffrent grade oil for the bearings it helps to act as a brake thats how we set up are beach caster multys it stops over runs and you use your thumb as a brake at the end of the cast

A Magimix (or similar) food mixer would change your life for the better. Drip/pour ingredients down the top funnel, and watch the consistency change in real time. Total preparation time about five minutes, with much less kitchen stink. Another tip - a little added custard powder adds an excellent vanilla hint.

Jungle warfare 👍🏼

Very good video. However, almost everything covered is just learning ultralight lure fishing, rather than BFS. Solid-tip UL rods, using small drops from rod tip to lure, cast better with low-trajectory flicks and under-arm swings, as you describe. This is not specific to the type of reel, or the line being on top of the rod. The baitcaster reel just means you have to worry about the line coming off the spool much more- balancing the weight you're casting to the brake. With a spinning reel, if you use these same techniques, you get similar casting. I also cast one-handed with a spinning reel, with a finger on the line. A spinning reel allows me to change from casting accurately with <1 g lures to 5g lures without having to tweak a brake.

Looks a nice consistency paste Joe 👍

No pain it's just a reel learn to use it simple 😮

Its definitely worth the rubbish sessions so much easier to use a baitcaster all day long rather than a fixed spool, pratice makes perfect im in the same boat as you are got it down to a fine art and had a year off fishing and now i feel like im starting again lol great video new sub here 👍🎣

Baitcaster rods is only worth the money if you only go after bass fishing 🎣 me not so much but like the IKE Abu Garcia. For the price one of the best fishing rods you don't even have to adjust the baitcaster all day with the difference between the wait on the baits. Don't like breaded spider line for my pole is not my choice of tea. 😮 I'm from America New Mexico trout fishing is hard to find bass there's only stocker's. 300 miles south I can find it and 5'000 feet lower in alaveshon.

10 dollar micro scale ion the tackle box makes it easy to make sure lures are in the right range for the rod.

I’ve got aTsoyinoya elf trout 1 - 5 grams , and a Korum phantom bfs , got it in a combo kit , 2 spools pre loaded with braid and fluorocarbon, I prefer the braid which is 8 lb , haven’t had too many tangle , as I’m quite proficient with a baitcaster

I set my drag on the light side, and I modulate with my thumb on the spool if I need to control the fish.

Bait caster is so much more accurate than a spinning set up. Only when you get down to around 1g weights is when a spinning set up is better. It’s more fun to use a bait caster but if your serious about making the most out of your fishing I think people are kidding themself casting 1-2g on baitcaster, it’s not as effective as spinning at those weights distance becomes very small and the drag caused by the reel creates inaccurate casts. I would advise anyone thinking about trying to use 4-8g lures and a rod to match, you will find it amazing once you learn casting into tight holes and up against boats ect becomes a breeze and 100% will catch you extra fish over a spinning set up.

was that the jika rig?

Just wondering what you do about pike do you use thick leader line ?

I thought it was hype. Bought a very nice set up to force myself to invest time into learning a baitcaster. Hated it. At first. Didn’t pick it up for about 2 yrs. Picked up fly fishing during that time. Went back to the bait caster and really figured it out after watching a ton of videos on set up and casting technique. Now I own 5 baitcaster set ups and don’t even touch my spin gear. Once you learn the set up and cast its so much more controllable and accurate. No line twist either

( Nearly a year out) I think I had a go at you in another video you posted on making cheese paste...got fed up of you mentioning the kitchen stinks and the wife etc. Finally, A year out, though. You've found something how a lot of us do our paste. I'll be honest, I can't believe no one hasn't heard of this company. Do some other cracking stuff. So Kudos for you to doing it...also...same too for Nu Fish....you are involved with. no arty farty crap there. basic decent goods for the practical angler. By the way, I've always used Danish blue Cheese...might add in a block of Stilton now and again. And I also add in a couple of spoons of CCMoores Blue Cheese Powder...( I'm not promoting)...otherwise great video. I also would like to say. I've done hell knows how many types of Cheese paste mixes. I'm still using stuff pre covid that I've taken batches out from the freezer and take with me to the bank where I fiddle about with it and later refreeze, and do the same again...on the next session. I constantly muck about with mixes, have done for years. Never to old to listen to others and learn. I love my Winter fishing... absolutely love it, flooded and raging torrent rivers, dank, bleak and devoid of life...but swing a bit of cheese paste in on a crease....oh yeah...

Nice short Joe and great looking perch

Nobody ever seems to reply to comments but this video has been so interesting from a starter's point of view, I need to get a half decent baitcaster real and persevere with it.

Hi mate, im new to your channel, this is the first vid ive watched and currently half way through. Just paused to ask a quick question. 12mins in youre showing a rig, so far if just used jig heads. Not seen a set up like yours where the lead dangles down infront of the lure. Could you explain more? Or do you have a video about them? Cheers! Just subscribed btw 😊

Excellent video. Full of great advice and calmly and intelligently presented.

Hi joe loving the content are you going to be back again for the new predator season ? And do you ever use squirmz instead of reggiez be interesting if real ale squirms get same results ? Thanks

omg this vid was so helpful 10\10 👍

Did you put a mono backing on pal?

Once you get into BFS you'll never use an open faced reel for lure fishing again

Once you enter the rabbit hole that’s BFS there’s no escaping hurts your wallet and time bet it takes over match fishing for you

When i first got into it. I must have watched over a hundred videos about casting technique and tuning the baitcaster for different weighted lures and magnetic drag for windy conditions etc etc. I basically learned a lot of the theory and basics before I had a chance to even touch it. First time getting out on the bank with it and starting to make my first few casts was pretty simple. This was some 2-3 years ago and i have still never really had a really bad birds nest to the point where i either had to cut the line or end my trip. I can use the setup perfectly fine but my casts are more often a little sketchy and I have lost lures in trees and bushes with bad casts due to windy conditions or me not having my thumb ready on the spool to feather or stop the lure in mid flight before i lose it. Ive seen some crazy casts where people flick or spin the lure 360 around the rod before releasing and using that energy to cast when in swims where there isnt a lot of room for big over head casts... Thats sort of cast scares me to no end and If i dont think i can get a successful cast. I simply wont cast in that swim. I can make decent casts. I just need to tune by baitcaster for it and use my thumb more. The amount of information on youtube has been great for mitigating the originally very steep learning curve to just _'a learning curve'_ but everyone is different. I fish around a lot of old generation carp anglers and some have fished with multipliers before when sea fishing but they considered them to be much fuss for long term use. So it could also be a generational thing. I would have gotten a BFS setup but I had already picked up an LMAB combo last year before the current BFS craze took off so I'm stuck with what i got for the time being. Its caught me plenty of perch and fairly sizable pike at 18lb. Practise makes perfect.

DOH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi bud could you tell me where you got the big cheese mix from

Hi ! What line are you using on the reel please (the pink one)?

Really wanted that didn’t he

Welcome to the "Poison "Joe

Another tip when you are fishing the Ned rig put the lure on the Ned hook, then get another hook nip it through the tail of the lure and pull it over the eye of the Ned weight eye were you tie your leader, then tie your leader to the lure this keeps the lure from slipping.

Like you I only really use lures during the winter as a change and I too have toyed with getting a baitcaster. However I eventually decided against it and bought a quality (Shimano Sustain) fixed spool instead. We don’t have any canals down here and most of my lure fishing is done on wide rivers and largish lakes so I’m not having to do many tight, awkward casts. I can pretty much do what I need to with a fixed spool but can definitely see the benefits of a baitcaster from your video 👍

Experienced all the pain and gave up. But then decided to watch a few videos and came across a bass pro demonstration on how, to use, them set them up according to the weight of the lures your using, braking etc etc. Never looked back. Very rarely fet tangled unkess you force, the, cast too hard.

I always wanted a little baitcaster set-up after watching John Wilson with one as a kid 30+ years ago. Like you it's largely my winter hobby (skiving at lunch rather than sitting on social media!) so can't really justify the cost when what I have works!

The Tsurinoya Dark Wolf is an £85 reel new.....you deffo got a bargain.

After second tangle I’d have smashed it around a tree but obviously I don’t have the skill or patience that you have. Top film again joe 👏👏

Nothing more british than this lol

Killer work!!! Fast results only > Promo*SM!

Happy new year to you and your family joe, cracking brace of chub 👍👍

Happy New Year and a nice chub too 👍

Didn't know you had a 7 pounder!! That's a chub target im after! Loving the chub vids

What hook is that Joe?

🎣🎣 nice one Joe

Been using that base mix for a few years now. Definitely the best. I like the idea of using the soft cheese to alter the consistency, good tip.
