    I was in search of a mussel cracker, also known as a brusher in certain part of South Africa. Unfortunately I could not get one but I thought I would share some tips with you guys by showing you a bait demo, discussing my tackle of choice as well as reading the water.

    Always enjoy watching your vids even though you some times don't catch any fish. That is all part of fishing. You win some and you lose some. Watching your rigs I try them here in England. And they work a treat. Where ever you fish different countries have different types of rigs. It's great to experiment. What rigs we use in England might work in South Africa and your set up in England.
    Keep those vids coming. Happy New year from England 🎣🎣👍

I just wanted to know if you could do a video on the braid on your reels that you use, like what backing, topshot and leader do you use? And do we have to use backing? And can it be a mono or braid backing?

    I'm wondering, what is your dingle dangle made of? Wire? Or plastic? I want to use the technique to fish for Halibut from shore in Alaska this spring. We normally fish for this species from a boat but I often get seasick. We have had some success the past few years off the beach.
