- The Any Fish Any Where 14’ mk2 rod called the “6 and Bait” perfectly describes the intention and sets the foundation of this set up.
Penn Fathom II amzn.to/3HBKT8Z
Six and bait amzn.to/3vlZgMa
Genie link amzn.to/36LuVw7
Swivel amzn.to/3BSRsm2
Asso Ultraflex amzn.to/3C8JwgV
Asso ultracast amzn.to/3IFpnBz
Teamed up with these rods are the Penn Fathom 2 casting specials loaded with 0.36mm, 20lb ASSO ultra-cast. Following this lead is the shockleader also made by ASSO and called ultra-flex. I have chosen 70lb & 80lb to give myself some choice.
The rig for most of this year is a 5’ pulley rig made with Trident Tackle, the latest release Dynaform and the mk2 version of the Termalink.
The chosen lead weight Is The Gemini grip weight with the solo bait clip built in.

Thanks for starting from the beginning! Invaluable to a novice. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
You are very welcome. I have started doing species specific films that I will build on over time. My hope is they will help others that have specific targets or are fishing a location that holds a certain type of fish. 👍🏻🎣
Final update: this little reel is the little engine that could th-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e . It performed flawlessly and was easy to adjust drag in the moment while I was battling a 35lb bat ray behemoth. Mind you, this reel is spooled with only 25 lb braid and 25 mono topshot. It's paired with the kastking telescopic heavy power rod and the two work well together. This has now earned my respect and confidence when traveling and fishing. If you have ever hooked into large rays and sharks, you know they pull extremely hard and can run forever! This thing clamped down on the fish and was easy to adjust during the fight. It has a nice decently fast retrieve as well. Twice the fish went on mad runs and I was able to gain back line quickly to avoid spooling.
Good news, glad he likes it. 🎣
Great video Mark very interesting on how to set up and get it right and take your time. 🐟👍
I will be doing some variations on these videos this year and will include some fixed reel films to help those starting out. Tight lines 🎣👍🏻
Nice one Mark looking forward to it. I have been looking at the Penn fathom 2 and listening to you and seeing how they perform looks like I will be getting one thank you. 🐟👍
If you are considering the casting specials it would be worth also checking out the fathom 12 SD’s. I cast further with those than I do the CS’s.
Attention to detail is what makes a great tutorial and you have certainly done that with this video, Mark
Thank you Brian, I appreciate the comment. 🎣👍🏻
Brilliant information for the Beginner/Novice, I wish I had something like this when I started but, that was back in the late 1960's
I’m just sharing Alan and as always look forward to your tips and knowledge. 😉
Awesome information,you do a great job
of presenting it without any complicated jargon 👍. Hope you didn’t end up reeling the paddle boarder in 😩🐟🎣
@@kevinbuckler1085 cheers Kevin, the paddle boarder did an excellent job of avoiding our lines.
Great tutorial Mark. Loved the sound of the reel but i will learn as a beginner on Shakespeare 80 for time being. Just upgraded my rod rest to Shakespeare. I have to use a Breach Cart for all my gear, not skilled enough to carry fishing box & rod over those stone banks . I wouldn't be able to cast after logging miles to a spot! 🙄 I'm sure i give the chaps a good old giggle slugging all my gear in a cart 😅
Okay mark thanks for the info. 👍
Helpful video for some of the beginners Mark, very easy to overlook the small things.
I hoped it might help and will do more along the same thought as I realised there was a gap in what I shared.
Thank you Mark, total novice bottom fisherman here. Loved the basic guides to setting up the line and rigs. Going to chessal beach, next month with some seasoned pro's, trying to land my first smoothie.
Every chance to get one but not my first choice of venue for a smooth hound. The Solent areas seems to concentrate numbers and there are a few well known hotspots.
Well done mark, very informative to the beginners, good to see you found the elastic 🤣🤣 always good to be prepared 👍🏻👍🏻
I could have edited that bit out but we’ve all done it.
Hi Mark loving the videos and great that you are also fishing my regular haunts. My learning curve is massive being a carp angler of 35 years in now venturing into beach fishing. Finding reading the possible features the toughest part but as you say be in it to win it. See you on the beach someday cheers Steve
Hi Steve, always worth visiting your regular marks at spring lows to read the ground and see what the fish are feeding on. As experience grows and you learn your “patch” it gets easier to predict but it will always keep you guessing in some way or another. 😉🎣👍🏻
Like ur new reel and rods mark 👍
Cheers Darren, I like them. 👍🏻
Thanks Mark
You are welcome.
Interesting video thanks Mark. Useful info about sliding reel seats for those that have them - my rods all have fixed seats, and I only use Fixed spool. Also wish I could keep a Termalink or clip on the end of my leader, but it won't go through the top rings on my Conti rods. Have to re-tie it every time. Tight lines, stay safe & well. 🎣🎣👍👍
I’ve made the transition to reel down now and went for some practice this morning. I’m going to stick to that position and see how I progress.
I’ve managed to get a Termalink through the eye of every rod I have except the very smallest lure rod. Your tip eyes must be small. 🎣👍🏻
Great video, even for experienced anglers it’s help keep the pencil sharp 😃
I always learn from fishing with other anglers and it’s sometimes worth revisiting what you thought was right the first time round. Every little bit helps and importantly helping those starting out or looking to improve. Thanks for watching 🎣👍🏻
legend thanks for doing this vid for beginners! was hard to come by one
I will be doing more that are similar. The next one will be for fixed spool.
Great video for the pepole starting out I picked one them rods up in shop other day didt like the weight on it the build was good tho I settled for another fireblade to add to my firs blade
A pair of Fireblades is a thing of beauty 😍
@@seaangling looking forward to seeing how you get on with the casting special
I had this vision of your new rod sliding off the bivvy and hitting the pebbles 🤦♂️😂
That caught your attention. 😜
Great looking set up mark I've just got a pair of t900 cracking rod's 👍
You
Must have saved up your pocket money then. I bet they are a thing of beauty. 😍
@@seaangling they are great looking 👌 Christmas present of misses 👍🎣🎣
Just a tip I do with my rod, I put a small Witness mark with a sharpie on the spigot and receiver, just two dots , helps alignment everytime, especially with dealing with rods with 3 sections
Nice, I like that one. 😉👍🏻
Great video Mark, looking forward to your opinions on the AFAW rods as i am looking to purchase a pair myself and maybe part with my 2 Zziplex zf250's.
I have a whole series of films planned for this year using them so there will be plenty of feedback available. Early signs are very positive.
To feed my line through the eyes , I put it on free spool and engage the ratchet this works for me .
Something I’ve not tried and thanks for mentioning. I’ll give that a go. 👍🏻
Great video mark very informative if I was starting out it would be just what I would be looking for I also feed the line through with the drag slackened off as when in free spool you can end up with slack loops with could end up causing problems with the cast , how are the rods handling I like the look of them they are 4" longer than my Imax rods which are 13' 8" how are you getting on with the fathoms glad you found your elastic 😂 what were you targeting were you Barton way or a bit further tight lines mate
Location was Hordle and a section known to produce rays when they move inshore. Mainly when they are searching for sand eels. The rods are really good and I went down the shore for an hour this morning practicing. Casting reel down now and getting consistent 150’s but that seems to be my limit. Some more practicing and a bit of coaching might help. 🎣👍🏻
Well done on the 150 mark mate I can only dream of that i suppose it all comes down to confidence in your ability and someone taking time to explain things just take longer to wind in😀tight lines
Hi Mark, great to see you on Hamble Common recently! Out of interest, where did you fish from in this video?
There seem to be 2 productive areas.
1. Centre of the carpark casting off the spit in front and at distance.
2. When facing the sea go right of the gun placement and be prepared to move up onto the bank as the beach gets covered at HW.
We used fine fuse wire to secure the bait when salmon (Australian) fishing.
I wonder when using wire if it gives off anything when in salt water but I suppose it is no different to the hook itself. 🤔🎣👍🏻
Hi Mark lovely videos just what the beginner needs but what tripod do you use please
It is a Leda icon tripod.
A few of my friends have 6 and baits and have totally abused them, they keep on going. AFAW are an underatted and understated brand sometimes and often get over looked by the likes of century. Serious quality for the money. I've been through the reel merry go round and generally end up back with slosh 20s for most of my fishing, set up properly they cast as well as any newer reel
A very honest and accurate view and I’m of the same opinion. The rods are amazing value considering the build and performance.
Regarding reels, I didn’t get on with the 525 mag 3’s but loved the 7HT’s which cast amazing. I have a pair of SL30SH’s for the boat and they deal with some serious abuse and lots of use. They still look and work great.
The new Fathom 2 cs are very nice and I think they will be keepers, so much so I may get a third.
Hi mark.
I’ve noticed you fish the reel up, I know it’s your preference but does it make any difference at all?
I’m in the process of getting my first multiplier and I don’t think I could cast with the reel down.
Any advise would be great, thank you.
It is personal preference but there is an advantage to casting reel down. There is nothing wrong with placing the multiplier “reel up” if that is more comfortable for you. One thing with a lot of new rods is they either have sliding reel seats or you can use coasters. Fish how ever you feel comfortable.
Hi, I'm currently using a akios fury fx420 paired with a okuma 8k surf but I have always had a eye on the 6 and bait.
I mainly fish the essex coast, would the 6 and bait be ok to use for the usual suspect fish? Whiting, dogs, rays.
Thanks
The 6&B is perfect for those species. I had a couple of hounds tonight and they take those easily but still give good bite detection on smaller stuff.
Thanks for your reply mate.
Keep posting your excellent videos
@@kevincarter4163 I think what you have is a very good setup but fine tune it to make it perfect for you. 🎣👍🏻
What have you found to be the main difference between other Penn 525 mags and the fathoms? Think it will be time to add a fathom to my gear to sit alongside my 525 mag 4, and replace the mag 2.
The metal casing is what you notice first and although this adds weight it feels like a quality product. I have the 15 size and so the amount of line this spool will take is considerable and changes the way the free spool reacts. Smaller lighter spool (12) will be faster but the 15 feels more predictable.
I am not proficient with multiplier casting from the shore but I am getting along with the CS’s well. 🎣
@@seaangling think I’ll save some pennies and pick one up.
@@fishingscott9586 get one in your hands in the shop, I think you will like it. 😉
@@seaangling I’m certain I will. The wife might not be as happy though 😂
Hi Mark, I'm in Oregon USA and am looking for a 14' rod. Suggestion appreciated as you seem very knowledgeable. Great vid.
Steven, you are very welcome.
The type of ground and intended weight will be good starting points and then your price point and ability.
If you want to cast 6oz weights with reasonable sized baits into light to medium ground then the 6 & bait would be worth considering. The world is your oyster if you have deeper pockets.
How you getting on with your new rods mark?? Have debated these for a while never here a bad word about theM
Short term thoughts are they are very complimentary to casting. Flex well in the middle, stiff but compliant at the base and a tip that gives good bite indication but is firm enough to sit into a tide. I like them.
I think the build is good, I’ve not had any problems with a moving reel seat as some have said and the Fuji rings are nice quality.
The gloss finish may weather more than a satin but again, I like it.
Some tape or finish that helps to grip where the 2 sections meet might help.
Overall I think they are cracking value for the money, time will tell on performance.
What model of flask do you use to keep your bait in please Mark? Does it stay frozen for a while?
www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DGPPY20/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_Z8F9B3BRZC6F9DF3DVBZ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=ml2&tag=markwilliamss-21
It is a Thermos and hopefully the link I’ve attached works. If you pre-chill and then put frozen in it works well for a session. The trick is to pre-chill.
@@seaangling Cheers Mark, have ordered one.
Hello Mark, do you know of anyone who makes rod holdalls that allow you to Carry beach size rods and reels to carried made up as per carp set up ? I enjoyed your video 👍
That is not how I carry mine but friends do carry theirs that way and use straps to hold rods and tripod together. Personally I don’t like it as everything gets clattered about and my worry is knocking a guide out.
I suppose it would also depend on wether it is FS or multiplier. The former being more difficult to accommodate.
I have got a carp rod Goodall at home that would do what you ask but only for a 3 piece rod as it is short.
Maybe someone else can chip in if they have an answer or I’ll ask on the community page.
hi i bought a greys sea ready adjustable holdall which iv'e found to be perfect for the job
Hi mark hope your well and hope you can help I’m just getting into beach and sea fishing what are the better rigs to use please. Also strength and type/brand of line
For rigs there are the standard 2or3 hook flapper/clipped. Pulley or up and over.
Those should see you for most occasions and there are making videos on the channel.
For mono mainline it will depend on location and ground type. A safe setup to go for first would be 20lb mainline and 70lb shockleader. You can reduce mainline diameter as confidence grows and skills develop. The base rule for shockleader is 10lb per oz of weight plus 10lb. So 6oz weight = 70lb shockleader.
@@seaangling that’s great thanks so much . My only other question mate for now is rod and reel. What would you recommend for a beginner at beach fishing.
@@waynecummings5554 all down to budget and location with your target species considered. Your local tackle shop will be able to talk you through the options but most 4.20 metre rods with a matched fixed spool reel at 8000 size would cover most areas. Using this setup will give you easily achieved distance with good bite detection. Again, your local shop can advise for you local area. 🎣👍🏻
Hi Mark what do think about that diawa shelter thanks
It is strong and light with loads of room. I had to swap mine out as the colour was playing tricks with my camera when filming.
Thanks what did u go with
@@stuartcross749 I have the Igloo and the Bigaloo depending on where/what I’m doing.
you skipped over the shock leader part! not sure how to do that bit
Hi Michael, the shock leader part is very specific and I would be able to show the variations in detail. There are numerous options and each is specific to location and use.
I personally prefer a spiders hitch through a figure of 8 but I was only shown this recently. Maybe I should do a specific shock leader video.
Anymore information on using multiplier reels for long distance, clean ground??
The series will continue with exactly that. My casting isn’t perfect and I’m still looking for a casting coach to give me some instruction. I am working with a set of 4 casting specials atm and really enjoy using them. I had a 20 hour session yesterday chasing a new species to me and the Fathoms worked faultlessly.
Cool, I’m living on the south coast of Ireland so Iv purchased a penn mag mk1 and a century rod for the smooth hounds and Ray that have starting to come in 😁 thanks for your advice
@@TheDuffman1986 if you follow the routine for initial use and alter your mag for day/night until you are super comfortable it will work out well.
@@seaangling yea I brought my multiplier night fishing once n I had a disaster to my friends amusement 😅 luckily I had my fixed spool, il persevere on n get that long distance cast eventually!
what is it you are aiming for with this rig / setup?
It is my general south coast rig for rays, hounds, bass, whiting etc.
I know its a relatively old video now but how have you gotten on with the Ultra Cast ? just wondering how the Fluro coated line does compared with the usual , would love to give it a go but I'v'e already had to spool my reels twice after I just didnt get on with Big Game
I really like it and it stands up well. I do not fish rock marks or rough ground. Chesil is about as rough as it gets.
Using a multiplier and laying the line means I get contact with all of the used line and would feel any niks/cuts or wear points.
@@seaangling thanks for the reply , i fish pretty the same area ( Hayling , Pompey , Selsey etc ) so again not really rough ground at all . also use the same rod with penn mag 4's , next time i need to change the line over i'll give the ultra cast stuff a try , thanks again
One thing worth considering, the period between changing line for fresh.
When you count the cost of the rig, weight and shockleader it is cost efficient to change the line regularly and avoid the possible loss through failure.
Where was this beach? I recognise it…
Hordle
@@seaangling Yh I go there a lot, just got a sea rod so I’m trying find out the basics and then I’ll use it down there. Is it’s good spot?
No
🤷♂️
