@@mattwhite1576Thank was hard work ,Seeing more and more otters and cormorants on the Tees not good. Hope tees doesn't end up like Wear and Browney where Chub, barbel and other species have been destroyed by predators.

Yes every Wear angler says the same, keep persevering you may hit lucky. Ferryhill has a small stretch at catterick on the Swale access just past racecourse and as you hit village. I fish opposite side and there's a good head of chub, grayling and trout in that area maybe try there is your looking to catch chub using same method you are using.

@@paulfinlay yeah I've yet too try the swale at Catterick need too get round too that at some point, I walked down newfield the other week and a angler had a 3lb chub out on maggot so they are still there just very sparse I think, thanks for the heads up 👍

​@@seanclarey983well that's a good sign not finished newfield for sometime. Mobile approach and fishing 20 to 30 mins a swim covering lots of water is the right approach just keep at it as we get into the closing week of the season it tends to improve.

Which lady?, I watched this when it first aired and I still watch it regularly.

Hi Sean, Yes it's part of ferryhill water. Sadly the chub had vanished from the Browney last one I had was 2019 due to predation also Wear numbers have drastically declined on the Wear get the odd one but need to cover lots of water. As for grayling I stopped fishing for them but have seen grayling on the page bank stretch this are is hard walking and you'll need to travel light if you intend trotting worm and maggots when Rivers eventually become low and clear hope this helps. Regards Paul

@@paulfinlay yeah it's the same at bishop auckland town water stretch, I was out with the centerpin and didn't have a sniff, there's a family off otters up there and gooseanders, there used too be a few big barbel but haven't seen them at the batts pool in years. Never mind I'll give pagebank stretch ago sometime this week depending on weather forecast/river 👍

@@seanclarey983 Well good luck I still fish these areas occasionally hopefully finding some specimen chub like the Wear had.

Hi paul, I'm going abit off topic here but do you know much about the tilery pond that ferryhill angling club own I had a walk around it but don't know an awful lot about the place and thanks for the heads up about the pagebank stretch it is awkward to walk but ended up with 2 nice grayling and a few small ones trotting biggest went 1lb 6oz 👍

@@seanclarey983 Hi Sean, yes no it well fished it when ferryhill first got it. Holds roach,ide,bream and carp some to double figures. Maggots,meat and corn worked for me on a bed of hemp . I believe there's F1,s also been stocked. Maybe slow this time of year if you targeting carp but improves when temperatures rise hope this helps you.

Hopefully even a better 2024 just need the extra ordinary rain we've had throughout December to stop.

I've had a few decent bream out of there but no scales, didn't realise they were that big 👍

Yes that's a huge specimen from a small river I think they'll be fish that size in tees as I've had them to 6lbs 4oz.

Bet that bream was a surprise!? Nice fish

@@paulfinlay Yes it was a monster. The River Uck is a spring fed river leading the Sussex River Ouse and it's hardly fished.The water quality is great. It cuts through woodlands / farms and maybe that's why the fish was so large because the river is tiny.

​@@adamchumbleyfishinimpossibleyes it was Adam especially that size have had the smaller from Tees nice to see.👍

Yes check out Swale video had fresh run 17 lbs 8oz fresh run salmon had many over the years all fish I get now are returned. Regards Paul 👍

Thanks , rivers all rising so hopefully fishing will improve once rivers return to normal we needed it. Hope you're having some success this season. Thight line's Paul.👍

@@paulfinlay had a few good sessions and a couple of poor ones, but that’s the Tees for you. Hopefully this rain will give it a boost.

@@mattwhite1576 yes it will I'm sure good luck 🤞

Hi Paul, As for barbel not heard of any coming out of Wear and not had one myself since 2007 they seem to banish once otter's turned up. As for Chub they are still there not in great numbers where I fish but still hanging on. Mobile approach works for me covering as much water and features as I can. Regards Paul.

@@paulfinlay Thanks mate appreciate it.

Not everyone kills them thank goodness.

Hi Alex I've had Chub throughout the Rivers Wear from bishop Auckland area down to Chester Le Street when clubs had those waters. Excellent trout,grayling,sea trout and salmon to be caught around bishop angling club water but membership is very expensive . 👍
