  • In this episode of Specimen Series, Phil targets tench using two very different styles of float fishing, on two very different venues.
    The first venue is the beautiful Rocklands Mere fishery in the heart of the Norfolk countryside. The lift method is the perfect way to target the fizzing tench at this tench fisherman's paradise.
    The second venue being a much deeper gravel pit in the Wensum valley. The slider float demonstrates how easy it can be catching Tench on these deeper venues using traditional float tactics.

      Eat SourSop fruit every day for a while and take the supplement! and then/or do huge long Fasts of more then 14 days usually to cue cancer! Or do it the other way round perhaps! Also supplements like Fulvic Acid Minerals has also been proven to cue it! Much more safer and natural then anything that the hospitals or Big Phama will give you!. Hope you get better soon.

    Fantastic fishing. This is what summer fishing is all about when you want a few bites. I got to a similar pool as the first one when I want days like that.
    I do like a day on the slider for Bream.

    Dynamite baits used to do a GLM liquid which was devastating with luncheon meat for tench. Shame there aren’t more tench only venues, fantastic fish to catch.

      I was probably being a tad heavy handed playing that first Tench on the slider 😯 They often make a dash for those over hanging tree's so was being "firm" 🤣

    Absolutely cracking video and my type of venue and type of fishing..just one question the last time i used a proper slider float must of been over 20 years. What would you say is generally the shallowist you could use the slightly float ?

  • @robertchambers3525
    @robertchambers3525 Месяц назад

    Another great video, Phil. I also fish a slider a lot when float fishing for tench. I also fish this method in quite shallow depths as it makes casting so much easier. No swishing a long float over head. A simple underhand swing will place your bait exactly where you want it and the float will cock over where the bait has landed. Phil, could you tell me a bit about the distance of your droppers on the hook length?

    • @AnglingDirectTV
      @AnglingDirectTV  Месяц назад

      Hi Robert, I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😊
      Fishing the slider float definitely makes float fishing much easier at times 👌
      We have filmed a separate QuickBite video explaining how I set up the slider in a bit more detail ⬇️

      I was using an Advanta EVA luggage set. It can be used for tackle or bait. Makes the perfect bait station for a days float fishing 👌

    How long is the hook link on the 2nd venue? I've only just started Tench fishing and have been using the lift method. Everything I've read recommends using a very short 2" hooklink.

    • @AnglingDirectTV
      @AnglingDirectTV  Месяц назад

      Hi Grahame,
      The hook length when slider float fishing is normally around 18-24 inches. Having a small dropper shot 3-4inches from the hook helps improve presentation.
      I've filmed a separate video to help set up the slider float, I'll pop a link below ⬇️

      @grahamejames4835 Месяц назад

      ​@@AnglingDirectTV thanks Phil. I really struggle to get my head around using a hook link of that length, as in my head the tench could easily pick up the bait and swim around with it and spit it out without getting any indication? I'm assuming the olivette is on the lake bed and needs to be moved to register a bite.
      All that said, the sun is out and we're in for some lovely morning and evening sessions this week so I will give it a shot and see what happens.

    • @AnglingDirectTV
      @AnglingDirectTV  Месяц назад

      The Olivette doesn’t sit on the lake bed, it’s there to cock the float rather than several bulk shot. Just the hook and last tiny shot are laying on the bottom, hence superb bite indication 👌
      Regards
      Phil

    The correct way to catch tench so well done. People's insistence on legering for species like tench and crucians baffles me. Nice work.

      @AnglingDirectTV  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you ☺️
      There's a time and a place for both approaches in my opinion, but if I can catch Tench and crucians on the float it's such an enjoyable method 👌
