Really enjoyed that film. To be fair, we've all seen more solid bag fishing films than we can take, but it's the angler that makes them watchable.
This film was very well presented and easy to listen to and watch. 👌🏻 Some nice fish caught on simple tactics too, which helps with filming a feature I imagine. 🎣🔥
It's content like this that many anglers want over the 'norm' of loud mouths and loud 'music' that many companies are adopting at the moment 🤦‍♂️ it's off-putting;
So well done Team Trakker!!! 🎣🔥🙏👍🏻

Love a video on how you are the hook rig that use then use with your bag I see you did a bit where u show what your using. But not how you actually made it and then attached to your line. Complete beginner here. Thanks.

Do you tie the bag on each time? I thought everyone ties a big loop into the end of their mainline and keeps looping bags on/off

[@TrakkerTV]

Hi Franny. Alex uses tubing so if you tie a loop knot the tubing would not go over it

[@paulryan454]

Could u not tie a small loop in mainline big enuf for the bag to fit throu then have a tail rubber above the bag stem so the tubing fits in the end of the tail rubber the knot would sit inside the tail rubber an then push onto the end of the bag stem, knot would still pull thou lead as an inline lead set up

Can I ask what are you thoughts when fishing your line slack? Cheers

[@alex_shorrock]

Hi Chris, I’ve always used slack / semi slack lines in my fishing, especially on pressured day tickets. Just to pin everything down on the lake bed so they don’t spook from the line. Stems back from when I used to fish naked chods a lot and I’ve just stuck with it. I’m not really a fan of back leads either.
The only time I dont use slack lines is if I’m fishing tight to snags or if there’s severe drifting weed beds about

[@Onpointcarp]

@AJS Carp Fishing Thanks for taking the time. I dislike back leads, and use tungsten tubing with PVA bags, slack lines might be something I adopt with this method.
My only worry would be if the carp picked up and swam towards... you'd get no indication, is this something that bothers you?

[@alex_shorrock]

@@Onpointcarp no problem at all mate. Personally no, it doesn’t bother me at all. A lesser of two evils situation I guess. There’s loads of debate out there regarding if it makes any difference at all. But we’re creatures of habit and it’s just what I’ve got used to doing over the years.

I have to say, this video is nothing more than a sales video for Trakker and a "look at me with big fish"
It doesn't show or teach you anything. 15:38
