Sorry about the jery video, but here is another one of me at Walton last night chucking a whole mackerel fillet in a standard DVice with DD Grip Wires.
looks like a ouality bit of kit, where do you purchase the d.vice from,
by the way nothing wrong with the cast either ,its fishing , after-all
thats what its all about ,
they certainly work in the right situations. at our casting club we have had casts over 200 yards with a whole squid using one and they allow you to use really long hook lengths
expensive to lose though. you need to be a bit selective of where you use them
In the clip I posted, I have a whole mackerel fillet which is simply hooked in the top and rammed in the DVice tube - no elastic, just stuffed in. You can do this with any bait and its brilliant for whole squid and head hooked rag - or anything else for that matter.
As it is more streamlined for the cast as the bait is in the tube (or hanging out the top in my case as it was a huge fillet) it goes a lot further than a standard clipped down rig.
If I was using the DVB (the DVice Breakout) I would have probably added another 20 yards on the cast - they really are that good.
If you see Mark (South) casting - there is actually not much difference between the cast on the field and what would happen off the beach.
..... and while we are on the subject, here is one of Concrete casting a mackerel fillet. It wouldn't fit in the tube properly, so it was folded in half and stuffed in.

The stretch of beach we were fishing is one of the roughest pieces of ground around our parts, but we fish it with DVices and DVBs as they plane up quickly on the retrieve.
I haven't lost any gear there in 3 trips.
If I was using normal gear I would have left alot of it behind.
i seen a guy use them down monknash and he was lucky to get 100yrds with it.. and i had ray he didnt... ill give it ago tho
