The easiest tactics for commercial fisheries, is just turn up . They're so overstocked a 3year old could catch a double .

Soulless and dull fishing that you can keep

I have used this method for over 15 years on the Hampshire Avon. It’s great for targeting Chub and Barbel that like over hanging brambles and bushes.

Well done Rob 👍 , nice video 👌

🤣 Love it as always, Very good Extra Length tip Pun there.👏

Well done Rob , look forward to the next installment.

Brilliant as ever rob

Nice video Rob great to see some from you again looking forward to the next one 🌟

That’s first fish was rank

That carp 6/7 pound? Need to zero those eye scales 😂 otherwise great vid 👍

Plus elasticated feeders are banned at most commercial fisheries

Most fisheries won’t allow hand balling ground bait

Trotters or Gils, Rob? Looks like Trotters but not sure.

When are you going to sign for the bug boys preston,guru

Nice to see a fish of that quality and weight caught on match tackle rather than 3 lb tc rods 15 lb line and 3 oz leads..👍

Won a match at trinity like some years ago 👍🎣🎣🎣🎣

Fantastic film,Rob’s smile tells it all 👍👍

Why do you not use a baitrunner for close in feeder fishing 🤔

Nice video Rob 👌👌👌

Great fun with a few bits of bait. Cheers

What rod you using please

Rabbits in a hat fishing

Is Holly Farm open to the public now Rob??

gotta love the feeling when fish are there and just waiting for the tip to bend round.

Hi Rob, great video as always. Im struggling to find any information on how to approach an evening match. 6-9pm in the summer. Running rigs only no bolt alowed .4 acre lake. Chub/carp/barbel/skimmers/perch/bream/roach all decent size fish. I only do rod fishing. Mainly feeders. Ive done cage and method. Not tried banjo style yet , maybe next week. How would you approach a match like that ? The lake is not exactly commercial beccause its not rammed with f1 or carp it has more of a natural feel to it and it only gets fed when people are fishing. I keep playing with hooklengths. ive Only allowed 5 minutes before recast so i will increase the time allowed up to 10 next week . Ive only fished it twice. I feel like cage feeder catches more fish in shallow water. Should i fish more natural baits like worm/maggots/deads . Or more wafter hookers on a spike/band. Both work but ive not worked out yet what bait work better. Feels a million questions but all that runs through my mind whilst in a match. Any tips would be much appreciated

Great video Rob, but unfortunately living in the West Midlands 99% of our commercial venues don't allow groundbait of any kind,but I still learned a few things ...👍🎣

Nice video Rob 👌👍

Indeed a great way to spend the day Rob. Using a light tip is good for not moving the feeder, as you said, but for me it is also better for the bold effect. Just one dead maggot is indeed amazing, gonne try that. Thnx

Aw man that was class. That happened to me a couple of months ago. I felt a right newbie. Great to see it happens to experienced guys like yourself as well. Don’t feel quite so embarrassed now. Great honest video.❤

Mine are a few years old now. The water inside them has gone manky. Next time I make some more I will add a bit of bleach to the water.

Great video well explained what a killer tactic 👍

Very nice! Can someone pls tell me if you catch a 15 kg carp on 0.18 it doesnt break that rig line?

Where on earth can you buy those bayonets from . I’ve searched the internet higher and low . Any chance of a link please 🙏

Can't beat been organised Rob, even helps me with just general coarse fishing

They Ruined phase 2/3 of makins took islands out in phase two, combined lakes that were sound, phase 3 they filled with more bream. Used to love fishing makins, but they took a lot of the nice natural features out of nearly every lake in phase 2/3. Will take years to grow back. Bream enthusiasts will love it. For the pleasure waggler man like myself, its not the same phase two used to have unusual catches golden tench, ghost carp, barbel and others cool species. Match fishing is still sound, but for me its lost all its magic. Phase one is pretty much untouched apart from the island on phase one, lake two, which was awesome as there was a bridge you could get ont the island and fish. Will go back again soon, but waiting for the nature to come back on some of the lakes.

Great video rob, i love using bread whenever i go upto the Norfolk broads especially when i have stayed in a boatyard as the fish are used to getting bread from the holiday boats

For people that don't know, this guy is a seriously good angler!

Well dine rob great fishing mate in them conditions 💪

Why was you lifting your pole up and down when you put sections on when the fish ran out if you don't mind me asking Rob.

Brilliant result Rob congratulations 👏👏

Brilliant fishing there Rob very well done in hard condition's, Thank you,

Nice one Rob, 60lb net limit! Your going to need a extra trip to van, when rainy season ends letting water warm up, just for nets.👍

Rob just curious, if you was in a match situation, would you still feed your groundbait with the big pot each put in instead of a cad pot

Nice one Rob

The dropper or tell-tale as Billy Lane used to call it, move it up or down as needed

I was given a water filled float last summer and loved it. I have made half a dozen now with varying water levels.. Cant wait to try them on my next fising trip early in May. I have used 10ml pippete which are easier to see... Ill report back once I have used my version....

Do you think you should have certain flavours for certain times of the year❓

Awesome video!

I've been using suffix for a few years now brilliant line the braid sinks like a stone too 👍
