@WoOSprintCars The thing is, he will catch a lot more Bluegills in a short space of time than anyone on a rod will. Thats important when fishing competitions, which is what poles were primarlily developed for. Try one, they are a fantastic piece of kit.
@Prededer2426 This is going to sound horrible but you can produce your own if you have the stomach for the smell. Take a large bucket, put in the bottom a piece of mesh about 4 inch high. Then, this is the horrible bit, put a dead chicken or rabbit inside. Put a lid on with a hole about the size of a golf ball in it. Leave it for a couple of weeks. Flies get to the carcass and lay eggs, thus producing maggots. The mesh allows them to collect underneath the carcass.
'i think i could cast 4lb line on an 8 foot ultralite 48 feet....'
no doubt you could, but you would have to use a much heavier float which wouldn't give you very good presentation, therefore less bites. and if there was a slight wind you couldn't keep your float in the same position, so you would have to wind in and cast back out. you can't catch without a bait in the water.
bait stores. walmart. vending machines. you could cast 48 feet, but with traditional gear, there's no way to keep the float in the strike zone if it's windy. so you'd be casting over and over and over again, instead of keeping the bait exactly where the fish are. get it? I do. and my longest pole is 9 ft. but I get what the system allows you to do.
didnt they fish with poles in the usa years ago , fishing for catfish.This style has been around in the u.k since the mid 80's.it came over from europe , they used to win all the championships , a 16metre pole is about the max length for a hand held pole
Nothing wrong with this style of fishing. But in my opinion its definitely an acquired taste or personal preference. Id rather use spinning/conventional reels. I feel I have more control and obviously can land larger fish with them. Plus sometimes I need to cast further than 40ft shore fishing.
A lot of people use them here in the UK. By the looks of it he was using a maver pole. Biggest i know of is 16m poles, can cost up to 3000 pounds. For a cheap 16m one you are still looking at around 1000 pounds.
Like he says you can put the bait on top of the fishes head straight away without scarying them away.
Fair to ya trying a different style, and the pole is a great way to present bait perfectly for smaller and larger fish i've just come back from a holiday in Cornwall where we we're catching 15lb/7kl fish (carp) at 14mtrs 16mtrs and incredibly at 3mtrs down the margin lines. Anything that gets people to the bank and enjoying the sport is a good thing. Tight Lines.
@dhudson369 No your right and over here I would use a tip to catch that far out but for sensitivity it's a great way to fish. Don't knock it till you've tried it kidder honestly a great way to fish and a lot more work than your think. Tight Lines
im sure its fun to fish like that but id rather use a cane pole on a small boat. or a cheap pole from land. it looks like hes got way to much stuff for just bluegills. and letting them go..
I moved to the States with my fishing gear ... People give me a look with that big pole. Mine is not as sophisticated, as this here is the professional match setup. I use a 22ft pole with a solid fiber top which goes rather thin and can bend very easily. That is doing a fine job instead of the elastic and is maintenance free. The rest is in the hands and the feel.
I just got an Italian one and it is 20ft long, and it colapses to about a 3 meter section that holds it all, i can't wait to try it. Anyone have any advice on how to best use it.
good video in spain and europe most people use this rods for fishing carps and barbels, i fishing with a colmic 407 13 meters and is the best rod for big fish.
funny how the english anglers,of im one of seem to think that there the best anglers,remember we got our arses kicked with the pole in the world championships from about 15 years ago from the italian and french,when all we did was float fish with rods and swimfeeder.usa would greatly benefit from taking up the pole,but the fishing needs are vastly different from ours,and obviously if they didnt invent it then it takes even longer to take off,lol.
regular matchman myself here in england id say 80% of my fishing is with a pole.. its presentation is amazing an can fish on a pinpoint.. once you get use to shipping it back an forth its not really any hassle.. most poles are very light weight design and a lil more stiffer than the guys in the vid.. he's also striking a lil to hard.. a gentle lift will set the hook an then let the elastic do all the work.. wont be any american fishing team for a long time ;) england ftw ;p
Ive got a 15ft pole that i use for bluegill, that one looks cool but it would be to much effort to assemble it and take it apart on a nice relaxing day of fishing. but thats just my opinion.
you need to dot your float down abit more and use spade end hooks you get better presentation i have a daiwa connaseur i dont think i spelt that right but i fish for wales im happy to see americans getting into pole fishing 6 is not the lightest youwant to use i use like a no3 on the canal
i think this is very neat. i used a cane pole when i was a little boy and it was alot of fun... i think it is just more about tradation that success!!! thanks for the vid.
A very popular method in the UK and europe with poles varying in lenth and prices and of course types , this set up couldnt catch a big fish on no.6 elastic but match fisherman can easily pull in 20lbs + carp on the poles they have nowadays some say its even bullinging carp as they can be brought in a hell of alot quicker than with rod + more fun due to the lighter tackle
this is rediculous for such small fish. control and presentation. blah!. extra work for no reason. i could probably buy 100 excellent rods for the price of that one i bet. and my shoulders wouldnt hurt so much after a day of fishing because i have to pull 40 feet of pipe to the 'pole' holder. not my style of fishing...maybe yours...have fun!
ts actualy not as heavy as you think one section is probably about 100 grams the more expesive the more lighter usually but its very easier to get to places you want to fish like under a tree or even in the middle becuase you can put the bait at the same spot every single time, and the splashing does not spook the fish. Its alot easier is you get to try it ive caught a 12lb Carp on 2lb main line on oe of these i bet you couldnt do that on a rod.
i dnt know how big them fish grow, but ive landed a 23 lb carp on a 40ft pole before, took about 35 mins to land though, but u can land massive fish on poles if you use strong elastics such as size 18 to 24
lol i been pole fishin for like 4 years now, i live in englnad and i think its gr8, ive never touched a rod since..xept those really far out distances. my pole size right now is 14metres... very big but very good for fish,i also have 22's elastic on! so if u imagine hes got 6 and thats one of the lightest, think of 22
nice to see this used in the states hopefully it will catch on as it really is one of the best ways of presenting your bait and having complete control playing fish. I fish without mine its 16.5 with 1.5mtr parallel extension!!
u know u can get the same result with a light rod u just have to be decent at casting because their is no current in a pond so u dont have to worry about your bait moving...ive seen long poles used for crappie before but nothing like this so its pretty cool
Wait until you guys get hydo,latex,blue, purple elastics, then you will think the world is going crazy :) I use a pole as the norm in the United Kingdom in matches, nice to see it being exported to the states :)

Yeah it's very light probably more weight on a rod and reel.
If you're fishing stocked pools you stand a much better chance with a Pole, simply because the fish are much more fearful of hooks and line.
I've caught 15lb carp on a pole and seen bigger, you just use a different weight elastic depending on what you're going for.

Great video you raise a lot of good points but I'll stick to my pflueger rod and reels.

no thanks...i don't need a 40ft pole to catch fish. Nor would I want to hall around all that gear. Interesting technique though.

nice to see this used in the states hopefully it will catch on as it really is one of the best ways of presenting your bait and having complete control playing fish. I fish without mine its 16.5 with 1.5mtr parallel extension!!

u know u can get the same result with a light rod u just have to be decent at casting because their is no current in a pond so u dont have to worry about your bait moving...ive seen long poles used for crappie before but nothing like this so its pretty cool

Great video, always curious how it is done in Europe ;-)
Seems like the long 15' plus crappie poles in the US are going in that direction.
I cannot get a good hook set on a largemouth with a pole over say 12' though. Prolly a lack of skill on my part ;-)

Wait until you guys get hydo,latex,blue, purple elastics, then you will think the world is going crazy :) I use a pole as the norm in the United Kingdom in matches, nice to see it being exported to the states :)
