Jonny Kavanagh Hi Johnny, I’ve tried various different popping rods like the Shimano Terez and the Hart poppers etc but to be honest I personally couldn’t hand on heart recommend anything other than the Daiwa GT86. For me it is the most comfortable and has the best performance of all the poppers I’ve tried. However if I had to suggest one then take a look at the Ocean Extreme rods. Those are similar in performance to the Daiwa but slightly cheaper. I use one of their lighter rods for blue sharking. I hope that helps but if you have any more questions just let me know. Kind regards. Jay
Great video Jay. Just one aspect of the film. You didn't run a bit of footage on terminal tackle i.e. Length and b/s of the leader. And the length of biting trace, and of course b/s of the mainline. But it was a great film.
Thanks Brian, yes I didn’t include terminal tackle in this vid as I cover that in other vids on the channel. Hope you are well and catching plenty. Tight lines. Jay. ☺️👍🏼
Great video mate , just inspired me to get another boat this season , we used to do a lot of Tope fishing 10 years ago here in the north west with some big tope to 67lb , now it's time to get back out again . Cheers for the upload really enjoyed it congratulations on that awesome fish . Nice to see your lad catch one too, my boys 14 now so I'm gonna get him out toping and piking this year get him off his bloody iPad .
Steve Hixxy Thanks Steve glad you enjoyed the video. Love tope fishing. Haven’t caught one as big as 67lb yet but I’m always hoping! Keep us posted on how you get on this season. All the best and right lines. Jay. ☺️👍🏼
@@HookedGB yea il let u no how we get on . If u look at my channel i think there a video called stes fishing adventures im sure theres a pic of that tope . The first one that shows . Then a few smaler one
Nice job. Porbeagles are absolutely more persnickety than say a dumb blue shark. Over a dozen times this year alone I had a beagle bite the bait in half or up to the hook, without actually eating the hook itself. Began burying the hook inside the bait by popping out the gills then back into the bait's body so it is completely hidden. 100% hookup rate since I began doing that. Also, I don't know about where you are, but over here I have seen them congregate. 3-4 or more, all acting dumb, coming to the surface, repeatedly biting baits... you could call it an infestation the likes of which you expect from blue sharks. They seem to do this in certain places when the water gets very warm for them. Otherwise they are like you say, solitary, very cautious, will hit and run. They will quite commonly teeth or even 'gum' a fish, even get pulled along for a ride without actually biting down on the fish to rip it.
Thanks for a great video. Out of interest what was your drag set to on the saltiga. I own a 5000 i love it and would love to give it a go on the sharks. Whats the brand of popping rod youre using?
chris singleton thanks Chris. Because it’s a fixed spool you can’t set the drag but I do know for every half a turn of the drag knob it adds 4lb approx. When the baits are out I tighten the drag just enough to stop line coming off the spool in the swells. ☺️👍🏼
master blob I know tell me about it! Took endless hours going through the film frame by frame to make sure it was covered. I had no choice as It was a condition of the skippers that I kept the landmark hidden. Glad you enjoyed the film though. Tight lines. Jay ☺️👍🏼
@@mroldnewbie have been doing alot of looking into porbeagles . Over the last few weeks . An its very obvious to me now that you've hooked a gorgeous porbe
you probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream all of the new series on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend for the last couple of days xD

@@spiritj7062 Fisherman in the U.K. don't catch and eat every living creature they come across, unlike certain people who don't buy a license and take home every fish to eat, I'm talking about rivers, when it comes to Shark fishing these guys, unlike the French, Spanish and every country that has a coastline in the Mediterranean, kill and eat the sharks, that's why there are no longer Porbeagle, Blue, Thresher, Mako, etc, etc, etc, because of this kind of fishing, the Med is barren of apex predators, I'm using the Med as an example.We have these amazing creatures, because of how we treat them, we have standards, unlike many other nations. Gandi said, you judge a country, on how it treats it's animals! So being the first to have an RSPCA, I'd say we're pretty civilised.🤔🏴👍🇬🇧
What other popping rods would you recommend for the big Porbeagles.
I look forward to your reply

Great vid mate but that location blinder thing was really annoying :(

Good video, although I don't understand the point of the location blinder and that spoiled the viewing experience for me.
Wondering if your sons fish was a porbeagle . That's looking like a little Great white to me to be honest

Any chance of the skippers details Jay would love a crack at a big beagle

You might want to check your facts for the uk for back in 2017 when this was caught.
Congrats mate
Thanks Jonah.
no problem
that logo is way too big and annoying and completely unnecessary and as for the location blinder distraction... nah just silly
