Thanks for the tips Des. I've been toying with the idea of casting off the braid with a mono rig length for a while, definitely going to be trying it out now. Also nice to hear your happy using 0.12 braid,I'm not comfortable using anything finer,probably a confidence thing.
For the free running rig, I like to use the quick change swivels in the loops at then end to prevent spinning of the line when reeling in especially with skimmers. Also I like to add an extra stop above the feeder bead so I can make it a fixed rig if needed to smaller fish like dace hook themselves against the feeder... What's your thoughts on this Des?
Hi dess.i followed your example a d when I cut the line at 30 inch then make my loop it's coming out shorter than 30 Inch.also I'm finding I'm having to place a small stoz at the loop that connects the the braid loop to stop the swivel bead coming of over the knot when placing the rig on my foam spool .any help appreciated pal .cheers 👌
Hi all, I guess anyone could get my question answered here as i believe this channel is watched mostly by match anglers. Is there any difference in the lenght of that leader? I see Des makes it about 30inches long but from some reason my local anglers told me some time ago that it was better going longer when using braid - about twice or three times longer. Is there any reason behind that? Or what is the difference?? Got into fishing just a year ago so sorry if this sounds basic :)
Yeah Preston does this all the time I am new to fishing so don’t no a lot so I look into a video to show me how to go on all I get from Preston vids is how great the fisherman is and how great he can fish rubbish what I won’t from Preston is how to put the equipment on my line and get me to a position where I can use your equipment so do a rethinking of how you do your vids your equipment is very good try and get your vids to do them the justification they deserve
Hi Des think your brilliant, and explain everything to a t, but have you actually watched this back, your not actually showing anything to the camera, luckily I know the rigs your making, but anyone new to feeder rigs are going to struggle, which is a shame, because as I said, you explain everything so brilliantly, hope you don't mind constructive criticism
Des your a incredible angler however this rig is a guaranteed disaster for broken quivers in my eyes ,put me in a match with you and you’ll catch ten while I’m thinking about it 🤣🤣but sorry a disaster in the making in my eyes longer shock leader every time 🥴🥴
Some extreme closeup shots would really help these kind of tutorials. The overheads are a little distant! Keep up the good work Des.
I know right I couldn't see a thing 🙄
My thoughts exactly. I was going to put the same comment until i saw yours. Really needs close up shots.
I’ve been away from fishing for a few years and didn’t recognise this slim line Des 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He's a lean mean bagging machine now!
Thanks for sharing Des and Preston team. Are Preston bringing out new Base Layers yet please
good advice but couldn`t see much as same colour as back ground
Des thanks for this. Liked the description of both the rigs. All the best.
Thanks for the tips Des.

good video but there's no close ups of the bits you display on your hand
Couldn't see a thing.
Great idea especially when its cold and fingers are dead ,can you tell me is the braid or the mono through your top ring of the rod when casting
Very useful information but very bad quality of video, arms and other stuff are not in focus, I can't see or it's difficult.
Thanks for that, I'll definitely follow that advice.
Really good advice, thanks Des.
Thanks Des, would you recommend using a feeder link on the running rig to create a bit of a paternoster rig?
Sorry, just couldn't see thing
Hello on the running rig would you use a hook length swivel instead of loop to loop?
For the free running rig, I like to use the quick change swivels in the loops at then end to prevent spinning of the line when reeling in especially with skimmers. Also I like to add an extra stop above the feeder bead so I can make it a fixed rig if needed to smaller fish like dace hook themselves against the feeder... What's your thoughts on this Des?
I use the same setup most of the time.
Thank you Des...top man!!!!
Could you use a banded hair hook with this if using hard pellets?
Nice but some closeups would be appreciated
cracking fisherman but the camera work is bloody awful mate
Is that a motocross bike your hiding in back there Des . Hope your not giving up fishing 😎

Hi des, what size hook length do u use on the running rig? Happy new year pal

At distance fishing it reduces the risk of cracking off if you use a longer leader.
@@neilcoyle2285 Thanks Neil!
Not clear video unfortunately
Thanks des v much appreciated 👏👏
Great video but you need a go pro mounted above you mate
Without question Des, your knowledge is priceless but have you ever heard of the zoom function??
Thanks Des 👍🙏🏻🎣
Is that a RM motocross in the back Des? braaap
Have you got a spare float Des? There's enough their to ressupply Preston lol
So you don't actually get to see the rig getting tied. I think I seen a fella in the distance... 😄
Cant see any knots. No close ups! Great!

Would of seen more if it was a podcast
Can't see clearly enough to be able to follow you.
Poor Des. Try it on a table with the camera above you full stop so folk can see what your doing. Background is cluttered and spoils the demo.

Non si vede niente ..... 😢
Impossible to see what he is doing , " ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT " What a waste of time
Useless. Camera is too far away! A complete waste of my time.
Terrible video lol
No idea what was happening. Couldn’t see the line. 👎🏻
Horrible tutorial.
