Hi Desh, South African fishing had made my life more interesting, and has caught my best fish. Not bad for the EU. If you know who came up with the idea I would love to know. Thanks Brother 👍😁
@@Billyfishing_watch Hey man, I have no clue who exactly came up with it haha, its been a technique used here since the 60s if im not mistaken, learned it from my old man and grandad.
That was one of the best and most informative surf fishing videos I have ever seen! Thanks for taking the time to make it. If they outlaw drone fishing in Texas, I will be trying this method.
@@Billyfishing_watch we do have a lot of regs. Most guys are pretty conscious about preserving the fishery. Most of the regs are good and make sense. But you always get the 1% that ruins it for the rest of us.
@@kitchensalive No bud, the rules in the EU are stacked in commercial fisheries favour. Fish conservation in the EU is a joke. The norwegians have some good rules and good conservation tactics. Thanks Brother 👍😁
I bought a few of these few years back and not used them yet. Planning on going down southwest Cork try find deep water along coast line see what it throws up. Great video Billy well explained on how to use 👍
Hi David, I have not finished that way in a long time I'm but what is an excellent way to pick up a big fish. Give it a go sometime, you might hook a monster. Fish on brother 👍😁
Thanks for this vid. I was watching someone last week using this way of fishing and I like it my self. I go Tope fishing on the beach in South Wales UK and trying to cast 10+ oz of lead and bait I'm not the best. This is probably the best way to get the distance and to put a full Mackerel out as well. Thanks for all your vidz. and the amount I'm learning from them. Tight lines.
Well I just watched the story of how to make the slides, thought I'd better do some more homework and see how they are used! Thanks Billy - You & your camera person stay safe & well. 😁👍👍
@@Billyfishing_watch so I'm in Southern California, if I want mackerel and not on a boat, it's not exactly easy. I can buy Frozen mackerel bait from a bait store but it almost instantly falls apart. Your mackerel appears frozen solid...yes? If so, should I simply buy a mackerel from our local Asian fish market, freeze that and head out while it's still frozen? Because only times I've seen mackerel hold up is fresh. Thanks!
Have one of these ready and waiting in my tackle box, to give it a go later in the year with a whiting livebait. See if there are any half decent sized cod around in the Thames. Well, I can live in hope 😂
Great Stuff, really explained it well. Only thing i would add is that with this system you dont strike when the fish bites you let it run to set the hooks and increase the drag gradually, I use this sytem in West Africa for snapper
Hi Paul. As it goes, I always fish circle hooks. So you know what my next sentence is. but you can't get everything into one video, it to much for a beginner. But thank you for getting involved, so there's nothing on said. Thanks Brother, fish on 👍😁👌
hey thank you billy over the years i thought many people hoe to use it this vey educating video funky isnt it i been using all sorts of sinker slides for 4 decaades often you set it all daay or night & nothing other times 1 after the other while nothing else works besides a sinker slide its some work but prudoctive when done properly speacilly with live bait
Absolutely brilliant tutorial mate! Thoroughly entertaining. However for me, I will get a drone to fly my bait out. This looks too tiring for me haha! :)
Hi Ryan, glad you like it. My best fish is 50 GK, in Europe. and I caught on a slide, just like that. So thank you all down is South Africa, fish on Brother 👍😁👌
@@Billyfishing_watch I was born there. Obsessed with fly-fishing and big bait fishing. Been living in Scotland for 13 years. Man I miss the fish. Great show, love it, thanks so much. Love your passion
That was AWESOME. Thank you. Its given me some ideas to fish for the Cod in the winter with small Whiting as bait. Can't wait to try it this winter. Can this be used with small live baits or will it tangle? Thank you.
Thanks Nige, yes it can, but with something about 20cm or more,so it can pull the slid, so you just let the fish swim it out, no shaking the rod, I think you could do it with a small fish like a dead bait👍😁
So that's not Dollymount? That's a good technique. I'd imagine the extra work can bay off big? Speaking of Dollymount, the bass fishing has really picked up there over the years, so I might give this a go on the next spring tide. 👍
@@Billyfishing_watch да ловим на Балтийском море , на креветку вареную из магазина , полоски кальмара , кусочки скумбрии , червь крупный . На спиннинг - блесны, воблеры .
That's what I use it for mostly, it's much better than 316, because 316 has no iron in it, 304 has iron in it, and can be tempered, so you can use thinner wire, the best choice, thanks brother 👍😁
@@ronmb81 OK, I was talking about the fact that you shouldn't use braid on a flat beach, be up high on a cliff or a Pier if you use braid to slide.now I think I nailed it Brother 😂🤣👍
Would you believe I got a few imported from Australia for skate this year. Have yet to be able to try use them though haha. Great video BTW. Really good explination
How it going lads, it's a bit of a pain in the beginning,I was all fingers and thumbs, but after a few times it was easy.its a great way to fish when you have the water for it.you boys can get some big one were you are, thanks for the love lads ,fish on 👍👍🍀
@@Billyfishing_watch Hoping too anyway. Reckon the only way to actually actively target them is with these alright. That extra distance will hopefully make the difference
I think it's the way to go 100%.I have planned 3 trips and every one got cancelled. But October is when the big female lay there eggs is shallow water,10 to 15 Mt. if it any help.I have had 100 + stingers ,it so much fun.
@@Billyfishing_watch Every little helps. Have been talking to some charter skippers who have hooked them in shallow water all summer wile fishing for thornies so I know a few areas I can target. Ah ye have plenty of stingers up there haha. I know its not the same area but was amazed to find out recently that stingers are the most common ray in the Netherlands
Hi. The easiest way to tell if the tide is coming in these days is, to get a tide app for your phone. But failing that, if you can see some seaweed and it is still dry. The tide is on its it's way, in and if it is wet it's on the way out. hope this helps out thanks buddy 👍😁
Hi bud. If you search, V M O mail order. You should find a shop in the UK that will sell you one online, or find me on Instagram or Facebook and I will send you a link 👍
Have a pair that i bought online a while ago, not got around to giving them a go yet though, as not caught anything that would be any good as a livebait 😄
