13:35 Why I use sticks over other PVA presentations
Don’t forget the hooks are hand sharpened anyone! 👍
Thanks for the tips
Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
Thanks a very helpful video, for a beginner like me at 68 years old.
Glad to hear it Ken, I never stop learning :) All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
Added tip for Solid bags. Take a baiting needle and poke some holes in the bag all over. If you don't air bubbles will form and lift the bag up in the water pretty much 'tipping' your rig and bait out which tangles the rig up. If you poke holes then it dissolves evenly and prevents air pockets.
Thanks mate, that's an excellent point. I often forget to do that because I fish mostly in shallow water where it matters less.
@@matthewcollinsangler Thanks, love the videos by the way. I often forget myself I spend time making up a solid bag, just to see it floating on the surface once cast 🤦♂️ a few holes and its great. I tested it in a bucket of water, the difference between pierced and non pierced is massive in terms of presentation.
@@Onpointcarp Right, interesting, I never had a problem with mine sinking but I do use a 3oz lead lol.
Thanks for the reply Matthew I will be out on the bank as often as possible putting your advice and tips to practice🖒All the Best and 'Tight Lines'.
You’re welcome mate. Don’t forget that there are loads of blog articles full of tips on our website too: www.frenchcarpandcats.com/blog/
Thanks I will be sure to check them out. All the best.
Nice....well explained....thanks
Thanks for the feedback 👍
how was the 1st ready to cast. soon as try it will fall of. 😂😂😂😂😂 needs to be fixed alot better than just hanging on your hook.
Great Vlog mate and well explained.Thankyou for sharing.👍
Hi Darren, thanks for commenting. Glad you liked it! All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
That big needs goo
Brilliant tips, thanks for posting! 🎣
You're welcome 😊
Hi Matt hope your well👍great video I love pva fishing and have done since I started nearly 30 years ago,it’s got so many positives you would be foolish to not use them! All the best Dan👊
Hi Dan, thanks again for your great comment! I’m a massive fan of solid PVA bags so that is my go-to winter tactic. All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
thanks for the great videos Mr Collins I have just started carp fishing and am learning alot from listening to you😃 keep up the good work!
Hi mate, thanks very much for your comment. I’m really glad that you’re learning from the videos! There is no substitute for experience though so get out on the bank as much as you can and have fun learning the ways of wily carp! All the best, Matt.
And yep another great video very helpful, keep up the great work, every video u do,is explained in a very good and easy way, thanks again
Hi Mark, thanks again for your support and encouragement! Cheers, Matt
Great set up solid pva bag
Hi Alexandru, thanks for commenting again. A well tied solid PVA is a very useful setup in certain situations and my goto option when casting long distances, fishing in weed, or over heavy silt. Regards, Matt.
excellent advice and we'll presented
Thanks Tony, glad you liked the video :) All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
this fella deserves more subs
Thank you 👍
Thanks for good job
No worries mate, thanks for commenting :)
Nice one well done mate
Hi Brian, thanks for commenting. Glad you liked it! All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
If you don’t have pva tape just lick your fingers and twist the pva bag around your leader and pinch tight this will melt the bag around your leader.
Hi mate, thanks for commenting I hear what you’re saying and yes, that works well too if you’re not casting very far. In my experience, if you give it much more than a gentle lob, the bag will just explode in flight lol. Another trick I’ve used if you run out of PVA tape is to use a bit of mainline to tie tightly round the top of the bag. Cheers, Matt.
Another great video Matt, very clear and easy to understand as all your video's are, some excellent tips & tricks and as always I will be giving them a try and I am sure it will help me put more fish on the bank, which at the end of the day that's what we all want to do! All the best and I will keep checking out your videos, old & new :-) Kind Regards, Lawrence.
Hi Lawrence, thanks very much, good to hear you got a few tips to try 😊 Glad you're enjoying the back catalogue! Cheers, Matt.
Hi Matt great video but on mesh number 4 variant you soak it in liquid ,does this not cause the mesh to dissolve ? sorry if seems silly question .
Hi Dean, not a silly question at all! Yes, PVA melts in water but you can use use PVA friendly liquids (they are usually clearly marked on the bottle). Nowadays I use products such as plume juice just to add a bit of a boost to my PVA mesh. Check out this little video for more information: ruclips.net/video/Km35wH2V2TA/видео.html. Glad you liked the video and I hope you enjoy the rest of the channel. Cheers, Matt
Matthew i forgot to ask could you show me the best way to tie a hing-stiff rig as i heard they can be good for light weedy area's or is the not true, and the Ronnie or spiner rig can be used or is not the case would be great if you let me know as im planning to go for the weekend and would really be greatful if you could get back to me for tomorrow as I'll be 4-5 tomorrow morning. Thanks David i know your a busy man.
Hi David, for the stiff hinge rig, I've got a video: ruclips.net/video/cKW50fzv1jo/видео.html
It's not a rig I use much to be honest but it's a useful one. I don't fish weedy lakes anymore but I've certainly fished a few in my time. I think if I was tackling one nowadays I'd either use a solid PVA bag approach or my mono d rig fished with a popup: ruclips.net/video/hoHB1gi_sQs/видео.html . You can fish as long a hooklink as necessary with the mono d to make sure you rig is presented. You should be able to tell the weed depth with a few casts of a rig. Change the hook after your test casts though as it will be damaged. I'd use a leading rod to find cleaner spots rather than a marker rod as you'll get more feel. All you need is a spool loaded with braid and a few different leads. If the weed is bad then you should dump the lead. You can either fish outline in-line or use a lead clip which is pinned to the swivel. The tail rubber should only be pushed on a short way, or cut down the arm. In the past I've tied the arm shut with pva to avoid dumping the lead when hitting the surface of the water. I don't fish with the ronnie or spiner rig so can't comment. Hope those tips help. Do let me know how you get on :)
Yet another great vid I have now got the pva ready for the better weather. Health does not allow me to fish in the cold :(
That's great, just keep everything bone dry and you should be fine. April and May is a great time to get out on the bank and catch loads of carp!
Great Show Matt. What puts me off PVA is the knot in the bag or mesh not dissolving properly in the lake. Is this an issue or will it break down fully. Cheers.
Hi Colin, I've had a few anglers comment about that but TBH it's not something I see in my own fishing and I've used loads over the years. During the winter, PVA breakdown rates are slower for sure and brands do vary. As a general rule I'd avoid the cheap gear. Some of it's got a funky taste and it can be a heavier weave mesh that leaves a nasty blob. I use loads of the standard Nash PVA mesh. It melts quick and is undetectable. Here's a little video I made this winter using it: ruclips.net/video/Km35wH2V2TA/видео.html cheers, Matt.
@@matthewcollinsangler Great. Thanks for that 👍
Hi Matthew why do u use vaseline on the tip of the hooks for, just a question, does it protect the hook or something, thanks
Hi Mark, yes that's right.I hand sharpen my hooks and that removes the original coating so I use vaseline to provide a very thin layer of rust protection for when the hook is in the water. You can also use nose oil (just rub your finger against the side of your nose and wipe that on the hook). It does the same job and saves carrying a separate pot. Cheers, Matt.
Why vasaline on the hooks?
Hi mate, thanks for commenting. I always use hand sharpened hooks which means that I need to apply Vaseline to the hooks points to stop them rusting while in the water. All the best with your fishing. Cheers, Matt.
Matthew your tips have helped me with my casting and have been able to inprove my casting alot better not perfect evertime but alot better than before so thankyou for the help. My local water is a very weedy lake i have used the chod rig, i was going to try the heil rig with lend core but i use one with steel instead of lend. What other rigs would you suggest i could try to use. I use the sticky krill and make pva bags to bait up so the fish can feed with no hooklink but they feel safe and they do think about the hook link and has work a good number of times. I would begreatful if you would have any other ideas i could try. Any tips or advice would be very welcome Matthew thanks dave cuddy enjoy the video's alway learning something when i watch them keep them coming. Help in a very weedy water would be great Matthew.
I have been putting my spool with braid on so i can go and have a lead about and put some pva bags with bait in some krill 4mm pellet crumed up kill boiles and krill active with some couldy krill. So i can put these traps in and when i put one with a hook in it so the fish feel safe but in other spots i can spod some out as i broke my paddle for my diggie. Thanks for all your help and advice i feel like im being a pain matt but you have some great ideas and use a wide range of tackle and don't say that you need to use one company for everthing. And i like that as im on a low income and your way truely helps thank you for the work you do. Traps bags krillbait
Hi David, sounds like you’re really upping your game, that’s a good plan you’ve got there. Thanks ever so much for your kind words of support. Hey I’m just nuts about fishing but what frustrates me is the marketing BS. Ironic really as my wife is a marketing professional lol. Carp fishing is a really simple sport, made to seem really really complicated in order to make money. Razor sharp hooks, simple rigs and an effective baiting approach: that’s all you need. All the best and if you have other questions, just get in touch 😊
Hi David, hopefully I covered some of that in my reply to your other comment. The other thing to note about weedy waters is that they tend to be gin clear and for me that makes them prime for black foam zigs. A combination of 8lb mono hooklinks of up 10ft long, a tiny piece of 8mm x 8mm black foam, siize 8 - 10 hooks and knotless knot has caught me some massive carp from beds of Canadian pondweed 8ft thick! You must dump the lead on the take of course, no freebies required and yes you can fish them right through the night! Good luck, Matt.
@@matthewcollinsangler black foam zigs
@@davidcuddy5609 Yes mate, are you not familiar with the method?
hi sorry for daft question but... how much does the length of hooklength matter when using solid pva bags? like i always thought it was shorter the better but i see you’ve used a nice long hooklength is this because of the type of carp your after specificly i.e the strain and how they feed? or is it another reason? regards and great video. mkg
Hi mate, thanks for commenting and glad you like the video. It’s not a daft question at all. This was filmed at my lake in France and I’ve found that when I used the “normal” short hook lengths that you’d associate with solid PVA fishing, the carp got away with it more often than not. So I went back to a length that I fish when not using solid PVA bags and I caught more carp… The carp average low 30’s and go to mid 40’s. Some have very deep bodies so I think what was happening is that the hooklink was straightening too early when they were tipped over at a steep angle. Gravity then helped them spit the rig. Nowadays when I fish there, my hooklink are 8” long and that seems a very reliable length for me. Every water is different so it’s OK to fish different lengths at different venues even when solid PVA bag fishing IMO. All the best with your fishing. Cheers Matt.
Matthew Collins awesome response thanks matt, very informative and friendly as always
@@FishyflapsUK Cheers mate :)
Hi matthew and every one else new to pva parachute bag how long and how short can thehooklinks be and and can you use a boom hooklink with the pva parachute bag thank you 😁
Hi mate, to be honest, there are no rules, a parachute bag rig could be 6’’ or 18’’. It depends on the fishing situation. Check out this video where I go through the reasons for short or long hooklinks, whether you fish a parachute bag or not: ruclips.net/video/YfIy3Kds49Y/видео.html. Parachute bags are a very specific technique used for tall weed or very thick and very soft silt.
Hi matthew hope you are well and thank you for the video link and reply has give me a massive edge i write everything down so i dont forget if i have any other questions your the man i will come to for advice thank you again have a really nice day mate 😁

@@matthewcollinsangler thank you very much mate have nice evening 😁
Hi matthew hope your well 1 quick question what size lead would you say to use with a parachute pva bag thank you 😁
Why do you vasaline the hook Matthew
Hi mate, to stop it getting rusty 😊
Hook link way to long ...! Nothing like giving advice when you can’t quite do it right yourself lol 😂
Says the guy with no RUclips channel giving no advice on fishing, always one arsehole like Dale eh
Painful to watch this guy
hook bait first?? odd
