Absolutely fantastic film, really enjoyed it. Just watched one of your thames festivals from a few years ago. Good luck in next match.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video as always Jon . Keep em coming 👍
Thanks for watching
Enjoyed that as much as you did.
Cheers Steve
Such a great lake for that method, very few snags , so you can let them run and run. Despite being a huge body of water it's not tremendously deep. Fantastic fishing Jon! Its 10miles from me as well so local!
Yes only 30 min from me and I don't fish it enough really. Not strong enough! 👍
That Pike! Never where you want them are they haha. You could be lure fishing for months in October and not find one 😂
Agreed! :-)
Nice video Jon, cracking fish
Thanks for watching
Nice one Jon 👍👍
Cheers Ste
Just watching a live match at boddy as u posted this
👍
Cheers for another entertaining video
No worries
Another, as always, captivating, enjoyable video John. I picked up a few tips from it, although I’ve never fished Bodington, I’m sure it applies to most pellet waggler fishing. Just one question, if you’d be so kind to explain? What’s the idea of using a stronger hook length than your mainliner? I’ve always thought using the same, or slightly lighter was the norm? Cheers🎣
It's a good question, but I just want the extra durability and reassurance of the 0.23, which is a different material to the reel line. I simply couldn't cast a thicker reel line and maintain presentation unless I compensated with a much bigger waggler.
@@JonArthurAh, right, I understand that now. Thank You for taking the time to answer, & I’ll give that a try.👌🏻🎣
Great vid as always Jon. Can I ask why you use 0.23 hook length, could you go striaght though with 0.20 mainline? less knots. Also I know its a very active method, as static/hanging hook bait is bad(?) but zig rigs are similar right, just bottom to top not top-bottom, if you catch me..... Take care dude, JB
Id never fish direct at Boddington or carp waggler fishing as if I get a breakage I want to just lose the hook length, not the entire rig. Pellet wags are not cheap and retackling up the whole lot is time consuming. Agreed with the zigs. Its something Ive toyed with on and off and there must be some mileage in it...
That pike was crazy but they can get very territorial at this time of year like you said.
pesky pike!
lovely fishing
Thanks for watching
Brilliant video Jon, loved it
Thanks Colin
Obviously thought the Waggler was a Roach. Good little session. Shows how the wind can play a big part in the catching of the Carp. What was the Peg number you fished from. It looked like it was in the 60's or low 70's. Cheers Jon.
Yes peg 71 or 72 I think. 80-100 had a match on.
nice lake, nice wether, but it is so far to check by eyes.
Thanks for watching
Although I'm very near Boddington I find it quite intimidating......& be careful Jon, you don't want anything grabbing yer waggler in public view!
Absolutely! :-)
Often wonder if its worthwhile targetting the roach on tough days at places like barston , meadowlands ect, on waggler, ever tried it in a match?, great vid as always👍
Absolutely in harder areas. Skimmers at Barston and roach at Boddington. You could do 50lb of them on the right day. Depends what the framing weights are going to be as two or three carp at Boddington would wipe out 5 hours of roach!
Interesting to watch.
Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching
Great video, Jon, and a good day's fishing. Please could you explain the small piece of foam taped to your bump bar? Thanks.
You add a small squirt of washing up liquid to it for when your feeder fishing or on the bomb, cast out then place rod on it so your line passes through it and wind in then your line sinks perfectly. 💯👌👍.
It's just an old sponge that I sometimes add washing up liquid to help degrease the line if I want it to sink.
Hi jon how do you deal with line twist when playing fish on the clutch....!?!?. Great vlog keep em coming.
Thanks Baz, its not something I suffer with too much, but just try not to wind in at the same time as when a fish is taking line
Great vid. Can you please confirm what main line you use for PW? It's just that when I searched for horizon mono it was marketed as "Ultra-fast sinking monofilament"
It will sink if you want it, but (as Jon said) it was new on the reel so hadn't had a chance to take on water which would help it sink.
Yes, but as I said in the film I personally don't see it as a sinking mono, more a neutral one. I use the dark brown Matrix XD Mono for sinking feeder work more these days.
got to be worth a roach session on there i bet it holds some monsters,.
Yes walked by some huge shoals of perch on the way back too
Big bags of roach coming out at the moment, 50lb on Saturday. 👍
I can imagine. It's teeming with silvers close in
I was watching your casting john. You weren't trapping the line on the cast to make the pellet land further than the float to get a natural fall just saying.your good dangler, but felt you should of been trapping the line just before the float hit the water
I ALWAYS trap and feather the line, so it must not have been so clear to see. If you don't, the float will obviously crash in like a bag of spanners, plunge too deep and most likely tangle. The only time I don't trap the line is fishing to a line clip, which you'd never ever do at Boddington. Sorry if that was difficult for you to see.
How is the float now ? lots of toothy critter bites showing
The float was amazingly unscathed!
Why the foam on your spray bar.
To add detergent to when I need the line to sink
Afternoon Jon, can I volunteer to be a camera man for you ?!! I get plenty of time off from work !!!!
Thanks Jeff, maybe one day. Id certainly need a cameraman for a river float cam!
Great video Jon but get back match fishing
I will pop a live match up soon
catching carp in matches/pleasure beats the F1 rubbish what commercials are all about now.
I don't think that's what they are all about, but its certainly where the most publicity currently is I guess
@@JonArthur Guess it's just all personal preference, I love Boddington, I love Rolfs down in Oxford, just big carp on the pole, cant beat the adrenaline.
