Zigs are something that I have never been very confident in but this vid is an absolute mine of info that has really got me fired up to give 'em a proper go...I have saved this vid to refer back to later....and Henry comes across really well, some presenters can be a bit irritating but his delivery style is spot on...thanks for the informative and very watchable video.
Have test been carried out in water to see the difference a tungsten xl sleeve makes compared to a standard sleeve? I can see it making a difference with a standard hook link but 18 foot or even 12 foot zig i find that very hard to believe especially given the stretch in such a length of mono.
Pukka video lad's and massive big ups to Henry Lennon for going into how deadly zig's are at #nashlakeroyston. As one of the Balif's I hope this video help's change are anglers mind's on using zig's. 🎣🎣🎣
Use an ajustable on one rod find the depth if you were fishing 12 foot go 10 8 and 6 and with the ajustable zig every hour or so come down a foot at a time skipping the same depth as the others whilst periodically spodding over once u get a fish change all onto that depth I keep a not pad to record the ajustable each time I move it
New to this game after 40 year break I can’t get my head around foam baits My local lake is only 2 1/2 ft deep & foam etc banned Is it worth trying a midwater pop up ?
If it's cold, go back to bottom fishing. Zig fishing will be much better in the day, especially if it's warm. And use a zig float. You'll find zig fishing much easier and way more enjoyable. Don't set all rods on zigs. Set one on the bottom to cover all possibilities. They are suspended because they want warmer water, especially on warm days. I don't waste my time trying multiple depths. I set my zigs a couple of feet under the surface, especially if I see them jumping. That means they are feeding on insects and other critters near the surface. Fish have eyes set to see up towards the surface anyway.
Always interesting to take and use a mix of approaches....using zigs, or float or surface, the slow drop or on the bottom...as carp are fickle critters and are often all over the place 😂
Not many venues allow 4 rods, that much of a deadly method, and talking about the shoal moving around and when one goes there'll be more I'm.not surprised they won't miss all 4 of your zigs😂
You need a fox adjustable kit my lad! Drop the lead if you want to. 18ft fixed zigs are just a mess waiting to happen and dangerous for a fish if you have a snap in those snags. 18ft tether, no thanks. Great vid otherwise but Nash need to step their zig game up!
Well done Henry, well presented.

Awesome video I shall be trying this setup at Cromwell Lakes next week
Outstanding instructional video one of the best zig fishing vids ive seen well in an thanks
Excellent demo mate
This was a good one guys, tunes and everything flowed together nicely with valuable info “tungsten XL” 👊🏻

Didn’t understand zigs until I watched this, great and informative video !!
what reels are you using?
Very well presented video, I will give that maggot zig rig a try.

So if you were confident that your on fish , how long would you leave a zig out before opting to change the depth of the zig ?
Use an ajustable on one rod find the depth if you were fishing 12 foot go 10 8 and 6 and with the ajustable zig every hour or so come down a foot at a time skipping the same depth as the others whilst periodically spodding over once u get a fish change all onto that depth I keep a not pad to record the ajustable each time I move it
Great Vidio Henry i love zig fishing
Great video, very informative. I am one of them that don’t use the zig rigs much and feel I’m missing out, so l will try in the future.
Probaly the best informative zig fishing video I have seen.

Brilliant video !!
Nice work guys!
Doesn't the maggots make the zig foam top heavy so your fishing with the hook upside down. Sorry not zig fished before !
Critical balance andrew

Why does everyone want to drop the leads does everyone like snaggin up on leads
Not sure if you no, my dad used to do this, if u soak maggots in water like u was going to drowned them, after a hour or so they will float naturally,
How tall is that chair 🤔😂

Are they edible?
Since when has a drop back been a back drop? 🤣

4 rods? xD
It's a 4 rods per swim rule
Zig fishing is destroying carp lakes across the country
How do you work that out
Not relevant...wake up people
Why not relevant ?
I'm wide awake mate I thinks it's you who needs to wake up soft lad
