- Beating the Wind with a Waggler Float - The Waggler Float. Sometimes a strong wind can make it difficult to control your float which means your bait is not presented to the fish correctly. This means that you get less bites, or even worse, no bites at all.
Today, I show you how to get control of your Waggler Float in even a really strong wind. You will need a heavier float than in calm conditions, but it is still possible to have a great day and catch plenty of fish.

Good demonstration , you mentioned using a longer float , as my lake is only 3/4 feet deep , I always avoided the long floats in my box . Then I saw another gents channel with a diagram showing that with the longer float , the line is sunk deeper - obvious when you think about it , but I had not realised it. So now the longer floats in my box get used on windy days . I've also got some windbeater floats with fine antenna and big fat tip , but never used them so far .
Another great vid Den
Learning lots from your channel, Thank you.
Thanks for your comments Ian. Thet are much appreciated.
Really useful. Thank you.
Great videos Den keep them coming.
Few questions i have.
Do you use match sinking mono line? And do you keep rod tip under watter all the time while waiting for action on the waggler?
Great video definitely one of the best i seen. Ive just picked it up again and looking to go for my first session the weekend.
As stated in your video and if im correct by moving the float up would cause the float to sit higher out the water. By putting some light shots on the line or by the float would this help my bringing the tip back to correct position and also act as a anchor. Im using hook to nylon 16
Thanks for video
Thanks Den very interesting,
Your welcome. Thanks for your comment.
👍
I didn’t watch all of the video........ did you bury the line or put a back shot on?
The line is always buried as soon as possible in these conditions.

What was the wind speed ?
I don't have an exact reply for that as I had no means of measuring it and I had not checked the weather on the Internet. Please bear in mind though, that the Waggler cannot be used effectively in really extreme wind conditions. The wind on that day was enough to make the surface move which caused an undertow in the lower layers moving the water in the opposite direction.
The object of the exercise was to enable the float to move in the same direction as the lower layers. If that cannot be achieved by using a heavier or longer float, or dragging more shot on the bottom, then it’s probably time to change to a different technique. For example, a Method Feeder or a simple ledgering setup.
If you really want to watch a float though, I have had success in the past using a technique called Float Ledgering. I will do a video on it sometime in the future.
