One of the best tutorials I've seen in decades, to me they're always better when the angler has to work through why they aren't catching instantly, it makes the thought process and progression through the changes a good deal more understandable I think.
20 minutes of Andy saying "come on" .......best Angling tuition I have watched in ages..
Andy may gets better and better at explaining these tactics. I've learnt more off him than any other angler who does these videos. Well done to all
This is one of the best teaching videos you,ve done so far. Really well explained your thinking for the changes to make bites into hook-ups. Thankyou.
Excellent tutorial. Love the fact that the video wasn’t edited to make it look like you caught quicker.
This is so real. Excellent. 👍
Instead of using wafters or popups, I use banded dog mixer and yes, they work great at a fraction of the cost.
this video took awhile but good because im going fishing for two days at thirsk for my 10 nth birthday and got loads of method feeders because my dad want me to catch big ones
Quality tutorial💯 I’ve recently approached the whole match fishing side after being an avid carper for years & my favourite methods are the method feeder and a strong margin pole👌🏻 this video has deffo learnt me something new & Andy is brilliant to watch👍🏻
Definitely one of the better session videos. Good to see that it sometimes never goes to plan but it's the angler trying to work it out what the fish are doing and what you need to do to adapt to the changes. Great video Andy
Thank you Andy. That was brilliant.
I've been fishing for 56 years but I learnt several things from your video.
Most important was how to avoid tangles with a 1oz tip on. They drive me bl**dy mad. No more. 😁
I'll put my new knowledge to the test on Wednesday. 👍👍
Glad you didn’t cut out the long dead spell, real life fishing going through the steps to get em caught 👍
Easily the best, most real fishing video/tutorials I've ever watched, excellent to show new anglers the trials and errors of fishing and ways to think and fix to come up with changes for a better result. prober job. 👌
Watched this last night, went to Weston today and picked up 39 fish, thank you sonubaits and Andy! 🙂
Always learn alot from Andy may, not always the first tactic works so you have to think on ya feet and thats what angling is all about out witting the fish 😀
What a great set of very practical tips for all of us to improve our fishing.
Thanks Andy for all your great videos
Nice one Andy you explain as you fish which is really good. It gives us all confidence to try different options.
Many thanks
Absolutely top notch tutorial..Andy may is the man 🎣 he's explaining everything in lamems terms so even a beginner can follow
Its great to see a pro fishing rather than just catching and explaining the rig thats working and making it look simple, which for us amateurs is never the case. A great example given of a change that could be made when things aren't working with proof in the pudding at the end, keep up the great work.
I'm just getting into method feeder fishing and the amount of tips iv picked up it's unreal
I normally float fish, but have recently taken up fishing with both the cage feeder and the method feeder and I found this video really useful, so hats off to Andy May
The good thing Andy is your showing that even on the best days thing don't always go right to you have to make changes brilliant
Top tips from a top man!. Explains thoroughly what to do when fine tuning is required. Superb artisan at work here! We live and learn from the best on you tube!!!!
"Gooooo'on the fishies" find myself saying that more and more often when I'm on the bank, great video very informative
Fished Arena today only a few pegs from where you were in this video. Great tuition in this as always. Had a feeder rod for Christmas and not had much luck with it so far but today i lost count of the amount of fish I had in the net. Between the method and margin pole I've had a great day's fishing. First time I've caught carp on pink bandem too. 🎣
Love that Andy thanks 👍. Always informative with a bubbly style, the fact it was unedited gave a real reflection on angling, it's not always a fish a chuck and you don't always land a bite. More please 😚
Nothing but a brilliant video. Informative and educational. Always something to learn and who better than you to show us.Thankyou
Will admit this is probably the best tutorial vids I have watched.
Shows the good and bad
Also even pros have issues at times
Now that was good! I’m not the only one talking the fish on then😀 thanks Andy and the team
Hi Andy, This is an excellent video with some great Method Feeder fishing tips and advice. I recently fished a day session at my local Narborough Fishery. I had a decent morning session catching F1s, Chubb and Bream… then the afternoon completely “dried up” plenty of nibbles on my Method Feeder loaded with 2mm Micro’s but the fish did not want to take my hook-bait !!! Then I remembered your tips and advice about “Colour”…. As soon as I changed my 8mm Pellet for an Orange hook-bait, then bang first cast I was into a lovely 8Ib Mirror Carp - I was chuffed and landing more fish. Best regards, Wayne 😀👍
Been a specimen hunter since the 70's and always something new that can be learnt, very interesting explanation of how you go about your fishing. Thanks.. 😎🍐
brilliantly explained Andy on how to method feeder fish properly, loved all the video Thank you and Sonubait's ❤
Great vids as usual keep them coming 😀👍 silly question when your setting your clip distance, do you watch your lead in flight or just judge it with experience?
Hi Richard,
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
Regarding clipping up, a bit of both really... lots of practice helps with judging how much to put on the cast but keeping an eye on the bomb and stopping it before it lands on the island. The first cast or two always drop short to stay on the safe side, then it's easier to add a meter or two from there.
excellent video, how you have your preference on colour, on a water I've access to, tried orange yellow and white, but they only seem to take the pink
How much micros and how much groundbait do you make to last days fishing please? Also what about if the venue doesn’t have any features like an island and just open water. Would you still use method feeder then and where would you go with it if so? Thanks
might be a daft question do you leave the line clipped up when you are fishing full time
Brilliant Andy , ive learnt so much from you and Jay . Thanks Andy
When your on a much larger lake would you step up to a 45g method on a 1oz tip.
Wow. I.d have bn striking like a deranged threshing machine at that tip moving. Learned loads ...cheers bud.
Best one I've seen. Come on the Andy Mays!👍😁
Andy is 10 outta 10 with how he describes stuff I'm going to use all this when I go Sunday perfect tutorial
Great video very helpful please could you tell me where you get the MCM hook case please if possible could you send a link
If you cast and use the clip, what happens if a big fish takes and tries to take more line out?
Absolutely brilliant video Andy and crew. So much information I can take into my own fishing and couldn’t agree more with the comment about having to work things out as your going, keep the videos coming.
Really enjoyed this Andy coaching at its best thank you for sharing your tips with us many thanks .
Really enjoyed that Andy. I just want a video that’s not edited as much where it makes out you’re catching on every cast. Little changes can make all the difference.
Thanks!
Is it always advised to put the hook bait inside the pellets/groundbait on the feeder? I’ve just found I sometimes have more success having it outside the feeder a few inches away…. as the fish are still in that area feeding?
Great video, Andy. Thanks for all the useful tips👍
Mint video, loads of good info for all types of angler
Andy your a scholar a gentleman and a man of noble breeding. ooooossssshhh absolutely fantastic stuff bud 🎣🎣
Please can you share the details of the kit you have used e.g what rod and reel?
Thanks Andy, saw you at cudmore Fisheries a couple of millenia ago. I will always bury my hook and bait under a layer of minipells now I've seen this. Laters ginge
I wanted come over say hi but I thought I'd leave Andy too it. Top bloke, tip tips.
Fantastic video. I just ordered KKH bayonet ready tied 4” hook lengths, would I have been better off with the MCMs.... thanks
KKH and MCM are both strong hooks, both great patterns. Personal preference which you prefer. Lots love the shape of the KKH, give them a go and see what you think 👌🏼
Really enjoyed that a lot of great tips Ta buddy.
Thanks Andy you helped me a lot with my fishing
Any chance you can show us how you changed the 4” to a 2 “ hook length
brill many thanks learned a lot 🎣🎣
Andy did you see Angling Times last week the picture of Jamie was legendary it was so good I was laughing 😂for an hour.
Hi Andy another great video now i know where I'm going wrong I have had success with coconut or molasses on the feeder they also love the power scopex liquid as well thanks again
Great info buddy .. I do well by using a pellet from sonubaits ..in stead of a wafter … & still on a 4 inch hook length … cheers Chris & Sam
Am I correct in thinking that the connector bead is for an ICL and not the bead recommended from an ICS....I much prefer using this connector on this system
Good spot, yes Andy uses the beads from the ICM (Mini) range but uses the stem from the ICS. Whether that was intentional for him we're not sure, but he likes using the smaller bead too!
What breaking strain you you favour o the method please ?
Having watched the recent Guru underwater vids the hook length thought was interesting.
Would it be a good idea to go 2” hook length to start with
Learnt alot, great video.
Andy a bit left field but I know you’re generally helpful. I noticed you’re on the absolute 36 box. Are you tall. I’m 6’ 3” and just bought one of these and on first sitting on it it seems quite small against my matrix s36. (I’m only getting shot of the matrix because the clips are pants) I know I can buy stackers to make it higher but the footplate seems short too. Any thought other than send it back 😂
Good job mate,keep it up,hello from Serbia 🇷🇸❤️
Hi, Awesome video, and thank you for the wisdom. Why wouldn’t you start with a shorter hook length, knowing that is the problem?
Hi Trevor,
Thanks for the feedback. 👌🏼
Although on this day a shorter hooklength was clearly better, often a 4inch is perfect and there is none of those missed indications and fish getting away without being hooked. Starting at 4in gives somewhere to go and make a change whereas starting at 2in would mean starting at the limit which leaves less scope for change.
Thank you so much for replying and even acknowledging the question, these videos give us mere mortals a tiny chance of having a mega match day sesh! More and more please!
Ps, probably one of the best vids yet, and I'm sure you'll be pleased to know, I have watched a few.
Is there a specific reason why you take it back so aggressively? I always gently drag the feeder away from the swim at least 10 feet and then start reeling it in so i don't disturb feeding fish.
Empties out the feeder of anything left on it so you're leaving a bit of bait behind, and your feeder comes back clean.
There's loads of underwater stuff about how fish are effected by things moving in your swim. Dragging slow can sometimes disturb them more. But in highly stocked commercials you haven't got to worry. They'll always be back 😊.
Great video as ever. Well done Andy and the crew. Quick question, what did you mean when you said you had to start off on a bomb in a match, rather than the method?
In match conditions you're often not allowed cast in with a feeder, so any distance checking and clipping up must be done with a bomb instead. (Just in case people try to sneak bait in we suppose?). so the ICS system is handy as you can quickly put a bomb on and off, swapping with the feeder.
@@Sonubaits makes sense.. I thought you meant after the all in 😂
Trust in pink 🤣👌🏻 always use a pink or a white wafter/sinker for me 🎣
Tucked blood knot Andy you are using for tying the hook attachment.
Great advice!! Thank you
Lovely Andy Thank you
Would you recommend soaking fishery pellets the same or for a lot less longer?
To be safe with fishery pellets fully cover then drain the water off after 30 seconds - 1 minute for use on a Method feeder.
Andy do you use a shorter hook length on the method 🐟
Can you fish with a method feeder on a choddy pond it's surrounded with trees and full of lily pads
It's good to see even the best have to mess about to get bites sometimes.. I like a 3inch hooklength but use 4s out of laziness 🙄
Great informative video. Could you do one showing how you the your hooklength?
Hi Joshua, is that how to tie the hooklength, or how to attach it?
@@Sonubaits sorry to tie
Class as usual Andy, can I ask are you still coaching
Yes: fishingcoaching.co.uk/
Brilliant video👌👌👏👏
Go on Andy
Am I right? The feeder is just sat on top of the quick change bead? The bead does not, erm plug into the feeder in any way?
Correct mate
In a situation like this where the fish are on the top, I would definitely be fishing on the top probably with bread or banded dog mixer.
Informative and entertaining as always, thanks Andy and Sonubaits. It's nice to have some alternatives when "Cum on the fishes" alone isn't working 🤣🐟
too many vids of "bagging" .so nice to see a top top angler working it out and getting it spot on. magic
Good video, no editing out the "boring" bits, which are the educational nits. Go on the fishes
Mega love it oooooosh 😆😆
That arena lake is nuts, there is nothing small in there, the 'little' ones are five or six pounds, make sure your tackle is robust, do not fish it like its a normal commercial lake or you can say ta-ra to your rig and elastic.
Taking my son on Saturday to the Arena and we're quite new to fishing. Your comment has scared me. 😂
Pls stay on😅
Seems to be "one of those days"
Like watching this lad fish don't really watch anybody else has a laugh as well
Can I have one of those flying leger bombs please ? 🤣😂
🤣
Funny how when he uses sonubaits he stops being a fishing catching machine 🤔
Scary if your not sponsors Andy.
NOOOOOBODY......😂😂👍

Ngl all the tech nerds hating or scarlet and violet for graphics it’s arguably the best game on the switch from Pokémon bdsp was terrible the sv story is good for those actually interested in Pokémon lore and people into the speculation for new and upcoming stuff I’ve had so much fun in sv one of the only games where I’ve actually shiny hunting if they made black n white and just ported to the switch it’s lazy if they make a new game it’s laggy so they are lazy just enjoy it for a Pokémon game instead of expecting cod graphics on a switch
Think it would make more sense if you used less words. Lost me several times.
