ANY QUESTIONS?? DROP THEM BELOW, FEELING KIND?? HIT THE SUBSCRIBE BUTTON 🎣🎣🎣
What do you think about using a bubble float in a similar manner? If you completely fill one it just acts as a casting weight but I dont know if its going to get the same results, I was considering using it instead of my bombarda on my lrf combo. What do you think?
@@weefunkster mate bubble and fly is a well established method for catching trout (too good infact, i think its banned in scotland) presentation wise it works a treat but the problem with them is striking fish with one, theyve a tendancy to drag and be unpredictable under water and they create a lot of extra wake this is why personally i think the bombarda floats have the edge, less resistance under water and less drag means it harder for this fish to detect, but bubble and fly WILL and DOES work mate i guess its just preference at the end of the day
What do you do with older lures? Mines always seem to rust, can you give them a scotchbright with some oil and add new swivels/hooks or do you just buy new ones? To keep the shine up I mean? I mostly use a Toby 10g with 6lb line straight through
@@nodecency4564 sorry mate i only seen this so apologies for late reply, the links on the abu toby lures are not great quality and do rust over time but theres a few things i do that seem to help, when your changing lures dry the older one off best you can before it goes into the tackle box, if the damps in your box and the lids closed its already creating the process of rusting, so try to put them in a bone dry as you can, try not to load drawers in boxes with lures either, theres not much air circulates in a pile of lure bodies split links and hooks, i go 2 lures max on each drawer, when i return home the lures ive used are properly rised under luke warm fresh water givin a good dry off with kitchen paper then put back into the box which i leave with the lid open for a few hours, all these things wont stop rust because nothing can but it seems to slow things a lot for me and ive lures that are decades old and still catchin, hope this helps a little and again apologies for late reply
@@nodecency4564 try this if you need to brighten lures also, its works a charm th-cam.com/users/shortsxo45F9lWdEo?si=FhkuUavu1AwJKRKD

Will definitely be trying that
its useful to prevent back slide of the bombarda and the mini lure rig can work for a range of species too, just keep the lure light and you'll have no problems, thanks for watchin and leavin a comment 👍👍🎣
very good advice and well explained. I am down in the south of England and i fish for Bass. There are a lot of migratory sea trout here and i have spent so much time trying for a trout to no avail. The advice you have offered here is something i shall try tonight , basically i can see i need to scale down my rig and lure size .
I can see that i am going to have to persevere and keep trying , it is not easy as this river i am fishing is the second fastest flowing tidal estuary in England . The sea trout are usually caught upstream by the fly fishermen 12 miles up from the estuary i fish for Bass. But the trout are on migration now and i am seeing them jump clear of the water at night. They are right out in the middle so i shall need to cast with a bombarda . I have tiny metals and shrimp/fry fly patterns so your advice is superb for what i am attempting to achieve.
thanks for the comment stephen and kind words, if youve found them thats battle 1 over the next battle is gettin them to take and as i like to say persistance is the best tool in the box just cycle threw the lures and flies until you find the bait and lure they are interested in, ive a few more videos on lures and methods that work for me on my channel but each area will have its own favourite method and bait, battle 3 is landing them and im not sure ill ever figure that 1!! again mate thanks for the comment and good luck, feel free to fire any future questions out 👍👍
I will be trying this setup for sure 👍
its a good way to get those tiny lures out, sometimes the big fish are fixed on small prey items and wont take the bigger lures, thanks for watching and commenting robert 👍👍
Cheers for this going order some tonight! 👏🏻👏🏻
no probs mate glad you got something from it, ebay has plenty on there to choose from, thanks for watching mate and leaving a comment 👍👍
Good set up mate, every we tip helps, many thanks, good luck this year 🎣🎣
glad you found it useful mate, tight lines for this season 👍👍
Excellent video, thanks a lot
no probs mate glad you found it usefull 👍👍
very good video my brother. He loves it very much. he eats very much.
The package footsteps haven't left my brother for a long time. I'll wait for the package to come back, my brother.
Excellent advice. Keep it up 👍👍👍👌👌👌
thanks pal just my observation with the floats, thanks for watching and leaving a comment greatly valued 👍👍
Excellent m8, great tip dulling down the finish. I never thought to use wire trace. Great stuff thanks✌
it can pay off mate if its bright, those floats really do reflect a lot of light, a rub with a brillo pad roughs them up enough to stop the glare, you can swop the wire for a 40/50lb length of flurocarbon and lock the float with a crimp each end and lock of 2 small swivels but the wire trace does the same and most anglers have a few lying about somewhere, thanks for watching as always graeme 👍👍
Awesome video mate 🤙🏻
thanks mate, its a rig that has it uses on the days they are looking the smaller lures but they are at distance, the 15g bombarda soon covers the distance, thanks for watching and commentin as always mate 👍👍
Great tutorial man! 😊
thanks dave, because they only hit ourshores really the past 5 years the bombarda floats are only really starting to get noticed but they are so versitile that you can use micro lures with the them for a range of species ive even been suggesting that the pike boys try them with those big gawdy pike flies, again thanks for the kind words mate 👍👍
Great video mate! I dont use this type of rig but really interesting!
thanks mate, id fancy if you try it with a 80lb fluro carbon leader and one of those big pike flies you could have a bit of fun once the weather heated up again! thanks for watching and comment mate 👍👍
Great content mate
thanks mate!! like hearin people enjoy my thoughts on angling 👍👍🎣
Great stuff James. Never seen the wire up the inside of the bombarda...ingenious. Dulling the finish on the floats another great idea. Only 6 weeks until season starts. 👍
it def pays of to fix the floats mate it just improves the bite detection and presentation of the lures/flies, im getting sweats now mate but we are nearly there!! thanks as always for watching and commenting kevin 👍👍
Will definitely be trying this out thus coming season. Another wee order of flies coming this week and gathered up a few bit to tie up some mad patterns. 🤣
@@kevm7751 it never does no harm adding to the fly collection mate!!, its def one to have a throw with mate if things are a bit hard
Thanks James... I'll sort a rig your way and see.
it can work well early mornings when the trout are in the cool shallows, thanks 4 watchin and leavin a comment graham 👍👍
Watch all your videos local is good seen a guy on Carrick dams using this 3years back with a small Flickr spoon with good success .question for you would you class this set up as fishing like fly and buble just that they say it's not allowed dicks every where the picador guys videos are good going to try it daft you know
the rig stemmed from seatrout fishing but ive seen plenty of videos of people catching from fisheries with the same rig, thats a sticky wicket mate personally im on the side of its spinning more than bubble and fly, but i know others will say theres no difference between it and bubble, but fishieries being what they are id imagine they would shoot you down, thanks for watching and commenting jim 👍👍
Did you fish Mourne Jim, after the first lockdown?
@@graemebrown1191 talking with boys getting good browns 3+ spinning and on the fly .l like morn it's more like a natural lake rather than a dam ministry messed it up draining it then no fishing allowed hope it's in better shape than last year .
Very informative video. What thickness/breaking strain fluorocarbon do you use and what is the best way to take the gleam off a new shiny Bombarda (I assume a light sandpaper or similar). Thanks again.
i use berkley fluro usually between 8-10lbs, ive found a kitchen brillo pad has more than enough abrasion to do a perfect job in roughing them up a bit, glad you found it interesting and thanks for watching david 👍👍
Many thanks for getting back to me, much appreciated. Looking forward to modifying my Bombarda set-up with the wire trace incorporated to fix the float. I plan to try a mini Redgill sandeel as the end lure and a pink sea trout fly on the dropper which should work well.@@whitetroutchannel
Do you have an opinion about using single lures rather than trebles on one's lures? I see with watching your good videos that you use both. Can I ask what size and variety you are using and if u subscribe to adding 1 or even 2 additional spilt rings with attaching the hook to the lure? Thanks
ive been fishing now with purely singles now for about a year, its a funny subject but i think overall the best i can say is thou maybe the hook uprate drops slighty the fish you do hook dont come off and off course secondary its better for the fish and easier for me to unhook them, yes mate i use 2 splits on fixed lures and a split ring/spring link if on line thru lures, it deff helps and makes it more difficult for them to lever a lure free from head shakes, as for hooks mate ive been using v.m.c. inlines ranging between 2 and 6 pending on lure size, but all being said seatrout are the houdinis of all fishes and sometimes its just in the lap of the gods as to wether or not they stay on or come off
Hi. Thanks for a great video. Could you please list a few of the lures you recommend. Couldn’t catch their names. TIA
the one ive rigged in the video is the mepps cyclops size 00 but the old versions of the tiny 4g abu toby are effective as can be the 4g version of the hansen-stripper, thanks for watching patrick and leaving a comment mate and im glad you enjoyed it 👍👍
Quite similar to a technique used in Scotland for as long as I can remember called the sinking bubble. Basically it was just a weight made from resin ( home made ) but we would attach it to the end with droppers above.
i think its the next evolution, the bubble and fly is very popular too here in northern ireland, the only slight difference is the bombarda float is a little more stream lined and cuts down on drag when you strike but they are more or less the same, thanks for watching and leaving a comment ian 👍👍
Thank you for replying. With the sinking bubbles being home made we could make them any shape we wanted. I found making them cigar shaped cut down on drag. I also see some advantages of the bombardasuch as takes on the drop. I'll deffo be giving it a go 👍
@@ianmcburney848 the good thing with the bombardas is they come in an intermediate sink density which can be pretty useful if your fishing with the shrimp flies, no probs mate thanks again for watching 👍
Hi again, forgot to ask last time. Do you have a preference for the slow sink, fast sink or floating Bombarda or does your choice depend on conditions/ currents etc?
my choice is prob based where im going to be fishing, the sinking versions are good for clean bottoms like mud or sand but the slow sink is better for keepin the fly/lure above the weed, a sinking and an intermid bombarda at 15g would cover you for most styles, i dont like the floating ones because i think the surface wake spooks them, hope this helps mate
@@whitetroutchannel Thanks again for getting back to me, much appreciated
@@davidburgess2354 no probs mate anytime 👍
Just came across your video very informative , can you advise where I could get the traces 🤙
thanks kevin!! the traces i had came from ebay i think, i bought a load in bulk for around a 10r, thou these types of traces are available at most tackle shops too but they are a bit more expensive, thanks for watching and leaving a comment
Good tips 👍🏻 would a clear power gum stop knot ahead of the bombarda be better for semi fixing it rather than threading?
you can if u wanted but its adding extra set up time to the rig, if you search thomas hansen ultimate bombarda rig you'll see the best method involving heavy fluro carbon and passin it threw then crimpin each end with a swivel, this is a poor mans version but fixing the float really helps fly turn over in my experience
@@whitetroutchannel Thanks for the reply mate I will check that out too 👍🏼
@@fishermanDom no probs at all mate, thank you for watchin and leaving a comment its greatly valued, if your into seatrout you'll find thomas' videos first class
@@whitetroutchannel Thanks I’ve subbed so look forward to watching how you get on with your fishing too 👍🏼
@@fishermanDom cheers mate greatly valued, my season just opened on march 1st but ive been landing a few nice ones early on this year hopefully theres more to follow and thanks again👍👍🎣
Are they neutrally buoyant, or do they sink slowly?
slow sink mate but i believe you can get versions with a neutral buoyancy 👍
Hi where do you get traces from and what thickness
these were from ebay if i remember rightly mate, there cheap and not suitable for pike but they are fine for using to hold trout, i can remember mate on diameter but they where 18lb bs there maybe about 0.25mm stabbin a guess, you can also rig it up using heavy duty flurocarbon about 80lb and pass a piece threw the float and crimp of both ends with a size 12 barrell swivel, if you search "thomas hansen, ultimate bombarda rig" on youtube you can see the formost seatrout angler today (in my opinion) making up the rig, thanks for the comment and hopefully this helps 👍
Hi thanks for the video the Audio was quite bad was that a floating Bombarda or a sinking. Thanks
intermed bombarda 15g, wire in the ear phones pal 😂 👍👍
Thants buddy like how you set it up I’ll look for a slow sinker
@@snapon1948 the intermids do sink full mate thou its a slow drop rate they cover depths up to 20ft no probs but if your fishing deeper or heavy swells mate id suggest go for a sink
@@whitetroutchannel Thanks for the info I’ll give it a go cheers mate
You could put a bead behind it with a float stop, wouldn't that achieve the desired effect
you probably could pal but my way saves arsin with beads its taken from a Thomas hansen rig, even as small as it is, that bead above the float might knock the float of keel, anywhom try your bead method if it works your sorted arent you pal, thats the beauty of angling we are all just standing on the shoulders of giants
Boozy shakes
nah mate im teetotal, bad tremour in my hand bud, sorry if it reduced your viewing pleasure
@@whitetroutchannel not at all. As an aficionado of the bombarda I was please to see your tips.
@@hedleylamarr7283 they can be an effective tool in the battle mate on the right days esp early on, thomas hansen is the man for it thou if youve ever checked out his videos
@@whitetroutchannelI hear you pal!! If you can take a long walk to a scottish loch the bombarda will reward you!!! Beautiful brownies
@@hedleylamarr7283 i know a few guys over here have been using them to good effect for the browns also
