Hi everyone, well this is the third time I have uploaded this video after so many on and off problems playing the video! I hope this has finally cured the problem. So again I apologise to everyone for the previous problems but they were beyond my control. Bill

I’m so glad that Bill’s videos are still available. He’ll be educating new anglers for generations to come.

You gave me the incentive to start fishing again after 25/30 years, god bless ya

Great video Bill as always. Very concise and clear information. Can’t fault you mate 👍🏻

Yuo this is the bloke to listen to, i used to catch fish as a kid for survival niw im an adult im getting into fishing for fun but im a caveman the fella i watched before this had a mary poppins bag full of gear about £200 worth i got a £16 whip 3 rigs, a tub and some maggots and somewhere to sit thats all we need.

Whip fishing was never something that appealed to me but after watching your tutorials and the whips in action I decided to test the water so to speak and I bought a cheap telescopic 4m whip with a couple of Drennan pole rigs, fitted a Stonfo connector....couple of sessions later and I have to say I really enjoyed the simplicity of this method. Seat box, landing net, whip, pole rig, disgorger and a bag of bread brought about a good day on the bank. What impressed me the most was the delicate nature you can present your bait over and over again. Thanks for posting.

R.I.P. Bill. Thanks for all the advice.

Just glued a stonfo on to my whip as per your masterclass. Loving it mate.

Thanks Bill Very good advice, I am new to whips but this sounds just right to get my 4 year old granddaughter started (she is already keen to join my grandson and me). We can fish on a private lake with both silvers and larger bream and carp, or the Thames locally with slivers and perch. Best wishes, keep well. Graham

Nice one bill good to see you out angling and jolly

Love it, simply and easy explanation.

My fish time fishing was with a whop, still use one on occasion 47 years on.

Thanks for info. Tight lines!

Very helpful , thank you .

When I lived in Europe I use to catch big bream on them on the rivers never paid more than 10pound for whips

I still have one of those in the shed from Sweden fishing not much call for it here.

Not long till 1 million views bill. Well done mate

Hi bill just bought the senses alberella pro whip 5 mtr it’s lovely light and slim. I’m thinking about elasticating it. So how long wud the line be as I’m thinking if I use the length just short of whip as you normally would to swing fish in, if catching better size fish elastic stretches even further meaning it will be too hard to land. If using shorter line and get a good fish that’s pulling elastic out but not far enough then how do you land it as it’s not take apart whip. So imagine using 4 sections and all telescopic and fishing say 5 feet of line. Which might have about a foot from float to tip. I can’t take sections off cos it’s telescopic and if I push sections in to make whip shorter for easier landing then it could damage the whip. Hope you can understand what I mean.

With whips do you use elastic. I’m new so I’m a bit confused . My one came with a metal circle at the end
