Great to see the float move Dan, it really is an exciting moment especially when you've spent hours watching a motionless float. I think piking is one of the most testing of angling disciplines.
i agree mate i dint really care on size either the float coming alive is where it is for me, i agree its hard to make meaning ful changes i find, yeah you can pop up a bait etc but not as much as you can in say trotting to change and get bites
Great Vlog Danny, loved the lo-fi hip hop tunes too! Reckon that venue will hold some more pike, will look forward to your next sessions, tight lines buddy, stay safe!
unreal mate i was like id be happy with a sign on the first trip and preparing about maybe a few trip vlog, to turn round and rod be off i was shocked haha but weird so quiet after
@@paultaylor5839 its been tough for sure, from a rivers point view its prob eased the blow them being such a mess. but this ice and snow needs to go now,boring haha
@@DannysAnglingBlog I'm up in Scotland with a couple of big waters on my doorstep which are dificult to fish at the best of times. Temp is going to creep up over the next couple of days so I'm going out to get my line wet . Tight lines bro.
Great vid as usual Danny - wise words to stick with your own proven methods / rigs when visiting a new venue. With pike being 'finicky' at this time of year, I always strike early regardless, just so I don't get a deep hook up - a lost pike is always better than a potential dead pike through deep hooking. Keep up the excellent work - tight lines mate and stay safe.
cheers bro glad enjoyed the vlog, when to strike is such a dividing subject but i always say you have go with when you get that gut feeling to strike and form that point your fate is sealed re catching it. but to anyone new striking straight away is deffo best.
Drove past the rubble today looked nice now the waters receded,another great video Danny,my quest for a 3 lb roach continues had 5over2lb last weekend fishing shallow believe it or not.
Lovely vid. I had a double take in the snow Wednesday, made for absolutely brill pics and video's having over 20lb of two pike together on the mat, few vids on my channel
Hello danny great content as always mate, can you give me some advice on what set up for first timer at deadbaiting without breaking the bank pls ?? I live in Warrington so going try it out on local river. I've done lure fishing for last 18months and love it but canals frozen or blanking. I need help danny 😁🎣👍
i cover a set up in this vlog mate forfloat ledgering, if you look in play list theres loads of pike vids that cover the running ledger that i would use on mersey if i fished it mate
Hi Dan can you help me I'm new 2 2 2 pike fishing went to day mate and and found it very hard I was wondering when you make your wire traces do you have a long tracer to the rig I'm using very small rigs and there is small Tracey did you say that 18- inch wondering if that could be the problem
i mae my own theres a video recently on channel i start by 21 inches with idea end trace us 18 inches. length of trace wont effect actual takes most critical part in piking is location mate, if your geting no bites pike are now there
Been years since I fished it tbh so might changed but the bend bottom first field with cliffs in front of you and the willows right end second field whwre always reliable but has been years mate
Great video but why do pike anglers , go so heavy. 3 1/4 LB test rod 60lb line. Surely you want to feel the fight of a 10/20lb pike. And not just drag it in
To be honest you are right re the rod on this venue but 1. Being and alrounder and having set ups ready to go for all species it helps to have one holdall with rods that can handle any venue I go. Having multiple pike set ups would just mean holdalls everywhere. 2. I don't know what this venue holds remember for all I know that jack could been 20lb plus and that close to so many reeds I woukd be thankful of the power to stop it heading to them Re line 60lb that's pure and simple to not leave set ups on the bottom the 60lb means you can pull most snags out or very least bend your trebles. So line is nothing do with fight more pike safety. Hope thag clears up them points mate
Good bit of fishing you can't beat winter pike fishing i love it
really have mised that float going for sure, tight lines matey

Hi Danny. Have joined Warrington Anglers and fancy a session trotting for Chub on the Dane at Holmes Chapel. Any tips as to the best locations?
Been years since I fished it tbh so might changed but the bend bottom first field with cliffs in front of you and the willows right end second field whwre always reliable but has been years mate
@@DannysAnglingBlog perfect. Thanks Danny. Will let you know how it goes.

Hiya Dan
