It's always the last couple of feet that matter. No rod and no reel has ever caught a fish.

@BassLureFish thanks, that’s why i asked, it’s a nuisance when the clip is a bit on the small size.👍

Thanks Man. There clip is made by HTO. It’s actually a bit small for the large eyes on these Titan Shads. Need next size up really. You’ll see in the video I was struggling a bit to clip the eye on.

First of all I’d like to say,the videos you put out there, are all to notch, brilliant, before you started this experiment with the 3 Different shades, I went with White, I fish the shorelines alone the Algarve Coastline, I’d say 90% of Bass I and other anglers catch here are on a White lure,a smaller % on the other shades, that being in all different clarity of water, high Water/ Low water, what is the lure clip you use in this video?, keep up the good work, Tight Lines.😎🎣

Rod is an HTO nebula 7-22g. Great rods. I even bought it myself!

Amazing! Which rod is that?

What fly rod weight was he using ?

I couldn't agree more, there’s nothing quite like the take on a fly rod! 👍

I enjoyed this. I've been beach fishing (Netherlands) with surface lures as lesser weevers are on the bottom at the moment. I just bought a sbirolino float so I can beach cast flies with a spinning rod.

Thanks for the comment. I’ve been bass fishing for around 40 years, so I’m certainly not suggesting that a slow retrieve is always best. Speed can absolutely trigger fish in the right circumstances. I don’t do coarse fishing so can’t comment on the zander, pike and perch in fresh water.

But I strongly disagree that slowing, pausing or stopping a lure is bad advice. With soft plastics in particular, a very high proportion of takes come on the drop or immediately after a pause. In my experience, faster retrieves can also select for smaller, more aggressive fish, whereas some of my better bass have come from slowing things right down.

There’s no single “correct” retrieve — conditions, prey and the mood of the fish all matter. That’s really the point of these videos: we test different approaches on the water and see what the fish tell us.

As for the casting, I’ll keep practising. 😉. FYI I’m using. 1-7g rod most of the time and can’t beast a 15g -20g lure with it. And I’m on a boat often in 20m of water. Casting distance not necessary.
