Was on piper the other day at partridge only one using the waggler Vs 10 lads with poles.

They all looked at me like I was some novice haha. Weren't laughing when I got my peg going and was banging out F1s and some decent carp.

Got the old " What you using for bait maaate"

Another very graphic and factual video. I have not fished the waggler since 1995ish I have a Normark Titan 13ft which I have got out to start using again. Thanks Jamie for such a great demonstration. Keep them coming mate. By the way its nice to hear you praising the "off the wall Guy (Andy) for some of his tips". Cheers

My absolute favourite method of fishing is with an old school porcupine float 2 bb shot about 6inch from the hook with either maggot or bread flake it’s crude but it’s caught me some cracking tench / bream / carp over the years

[rpriolet]

Great video. A good insight to fishing 🎣 competition 😊

[terrystokley]

Great waggler fishing film, very informative, from the best Commercial Angler of all time.

[raybailey]

Ever thought about striking sideways it is like pulling your line through a tube instead of upwards having the resistance of water on your line 🤗

[oldbloke]

It's funny that 3.5lb line is now regarded as a light main line. If we'd used anything over 1.7lb back in the 70s we'd think we were sea fishing! Of course our 1.7lb was probably the same diameter as today's 3.5lb pole lines!

Jamie, boss video. I moved from Liverpool to Australia and I really miss a good day on the float in St Helens or around Wigan on the quarries silver and tench fishing. Australia tends to be all spinning and lure fishing in fresh water. They even catch and kill the carp, what a waste!

[ianwordsworth]

When plumbing swapping the floats over... surely that only works if the floats are the same length?

[roytaylor]

Hi Jamie great info. on our lake we have good head of skimmers and bream.this time of year I use maggot feed.use punch bread on the hook and always seem to take the better fish on the drop up in the water Like dobbin on the waggled not conventional but it works.

[garethwatkins]

great video now i know where ive berm going wrong - cheers

[geoffreylloydhall]

Being a bit of a slow learner this bloke really has taught me much. for instance, how to fish with a feeder. My success rate has risen, thanks, Jamie.

[alanmarriott]

Great video! Can I ask question regarding waggler. Can you fish waggler with pellet band and 6mm pellet and also can you fish waggler with luncheon meat directly on hook? Ideally for carp and F1s. I know probably pole be better method and pellet waggler also but my son who’s 12 has just started so we’ve not got pole and someone has told us pellet waggler no good at this time of the year! Any help much appreciated please! 🙏

[kevshouse]

Superb video Jamie and a great tip on plumbing up 1st with a bigger float.
What floats u using?

[GBJulesKing]

Can you do that anchoring trick by putting a slightly heavier shot on down at swim depth plus a bit & winding tight against that?

[felgate]

Don't forget to drop a few maggots "Down the Edge" & give that a bit of a go with the same gear, now & then!! Nice to try during a Coffee break.
