I've fished in a harbour with corse tackle in my teens got laughed at by local anglers... that was until I started smashing the fish. Been out with a feeder caught first carp of the season while 20 carp anglers watched. Was the only angler out of group of 15 at a trout fishery to catch . Using just a large lob worm with big hook so it sank naturally. Never had the best tackle, but always out fished my mates . Know your venue, water movement , weather , and species.
My daughter used a 6ft telescopic rod and match reel at age 8. Now she’s 11 and using a 9ft carp rod and baitrunner reel and can cast tight up to pads and islands at distance 😊 Proud
Nice to see you can catch fish with allmost everything, in my time we had a old bamboo rod and an French old reel but allways catch fish, nice video mate, like it 👍👍
Can't think of anyone who outputs quality content as often as you do, at some point if or when you do have to slow down a bit don't feel bad about it, you already go well above and beyond
Ya big kid! 😂 In fact, my first ever proper rod was not too unlike it. FG rod with a plastic handle. It was a casting rod with the trigger finger, but back then (50s - yes, that old) we had no idea what it was for. Caught lots of nice fish including perch on it though, but using a cheap little tin-plate centrepin.
I’ve not fished in nearly 20 years and I just bought myself a very cheap £50 set up and I was worrying about it not being good enough but you’ve just proved to me I’ve got a chance lol I can’t believe I didn’t catch this vid last year I’ve noticed a few now that I didn’t watch so it’s good going back over the oldies. Cheers bro
Great video chris, that was very funny when you let the monster have a swim 😂😂😂. Just goes to show you that size doesn't matter 👍. Lovely Pike and Chub , buy another Monster rod and challenge the Bro . Have a great week and stay safe , all the best from Downunder 👍. 31 degrees here today in Brisbane .
Great video. It just proves you don't need to spend loads on gear to catch decent fish. When you let go of the rod i was literally crying with laughter.
Hey fella. Just got an outus and it’s a cool lure wicked action, my new go to lure. Just shows you though about the kit. Was fishing with my nieces few years back and I caught nothing and they both caught jacks. This was their first time fishing and reeling erratically/jerky which did the trick. Keep em coming mate
Love it Chris, your challenge videos are the most interesting fishing challenges on youtube, especially the ones where you were catching beauties on pet shop mice lol
Great fun on that little “rod’ mate 😂👍. My kid is 2years old maybe I’ll get him something like this to start him off with fishing. ..with his Dad. So he can get an idea of holding a rod to start off with …Lol.
Thanks for that information i think my grandkids would love them they keep asking me to take them even though ive not got any fishing tackle anymore due to it being stolen out of the shed
is tis river was governed by very cool and clean people? I can't believe my eyes seeing such a clean river without any industrial factory nor the drainage sewage from houses around it..
My PB to this day still stands at a 24lb common carp caught on a 3 foot pen rod (those crappy Chinese lixada things from Amazon!).Something about size not mattering? ;)
Whilst I appreciate the challenge, not sure it’s a great idea in regards to fish care? What if you did hook a big pike, like you said the drag system is terrible, if it spooled you and then snapped the line? Is it really worth it?
the thumb pic, reminds me of this guy I use to hike with. ON EVERY thumb, to EVERY one of his videos, he's making that same face. but on his videos, NOTHING, is seen directly. It ALL must be viewed past him. He is NEVER out of the video, even for .001265 seconds! The entire video it shot with a selfie stick of one kind or another. and when he sees we are filming or anyone, weather he knows them or not, he bolts to jump in the shot! He is absolutely bonkers crazy and like a 12 year old girl with his selfies. So, that expression on your face, We refer to that as doing a Jason.

Just goes to show, doesn’t matter about new gadgets and expensive gear, a good angler will catch fish no matter what. Well done 👏🏻
To be fair for the sakes of being fair, he's using Rapala lures. Hilarious video though haha
Oh yes, i catched fish with a yarn, size 18 hook and a housefly on it...
Anything is possible if you know where the fish is

Great video , just shows fish don't care how expensive and fancy your tackle is. A lesson for us all .
Just how expensive the lures are 😅
Every time I go out fishing and blank, I'm going to think of this guy nailing nice fish with his toy rod. Dammit!
I used to love catching roach and perch with a stick and some line and a hook! Best times ever 😂 great video as always mate 👍
Great love watching your stuff it gives me inspiration to get out and doo it myself.
Nice to see you can catch fish with allmost everything, in my time we had a old bamboo rod and an French old reel but allways catch fish, nice video mate, like it 👍👍

"I'm walking backwards. The drag system is horrendous." This had me LOL'ing so hard. You would never hear this on Carl and Alex. Hahahaha. 🤣🤣🤣

Well done Chris, it just goes to show that you can catch on just about any rod setup and it made me laugh. Keep up the great work.

Another great video Chris. Love to see more of the belly boat adventures.
Best RUclips fishing channel..!!
Another ace video.
I've seen people catching decent fish on bamboo and string. My pb carp and pike are on a cheap 10 quid telescopic rod n reel set.
I love the fisherman's ever faithful lure lunchbox 😂 we all have one
Great bit of angling mate well done. 👍🏼
Great video. It just proves you don't need to spend loads on gear to catch decent fish. When you let go of the rod i was literally crying with laughter.
Proper funny bet you got some strange looks with that lol great chub too .
Started fishing thanks to a Woolworths young angler set the rod was a bit longer but probably similar quality...still had amazing fun with it
Hilarious and fab to watch, especially the rod going in lol
Came to your channel after watching Alex and Carl's.. great content, I am now binge watching for the rest of the day.
Now this is the excalibur of the fish that i need! I need to find one of these for a fishing video! SUPER COOL IDEA!
This is hilarious. What would passer-by think 😂
Great video & love the rapmastuh beat at the end their 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Fantastic fun vid. Tight lines
Rich
Lol, that thing reminds me of the Instant Fisherman. My mate bought one… really it wasn’t me 😅
great skill! you should have a try of glassfiber rod to catch big fish, which is also a great challege by far I don't see any case in RUclips
All about presentation.
Love your videos.. I am also a ginger fisherman 🎣👍
Monster ginger beard! "Men Only" beard fertilizer?
Think I might buy one. 🙈
Legend 😂
Brilliant.😂😂😂
Wooy
Looks like your fishing with a wind up radio🤣🤣
Nice funny video mate👍
Have you thought about using a pen rod like you see on the internet? Could be fun catching on one 😄
Thanks for that information i think my grandkids would love them they keep asking me to take them even though ive not got any fishing tackle anymore due to it being stolen out of the shed
Have bin watching yours channel for years now, looking at such title choice instantly made me think Yes he can. fat +
good effort pal
Couldn’t stop laughing 👍👍👍
is tis river was governed by very cool and clean people? I can't believe my eyes seeing such a clean river without any industrial factory nor the drainage sewage from houses around it..
I wish I could afford to lose an X-rap Peto 😢 😂
NO BYŁO FAJNE WCHODZE DO WINDE
My PB to this day still stands at a 24lb common carp caught on a 3 foot pen rod (those crappy Chinese lixada things from Amazon!).Something about size not mattering? ;)
Omg, when the lure is bigger than a rod... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol fantastic
🤣🤣🤣Nice one
I love your content👍
At 12:02 - so funny 😂
I saw one of these in Glasgow Angling centre yesterday 😂
They know their premium tackle
LMAO, great entertaining vid. cheers
Whilst I appreciate the challenge, not sure it’s a great idea in regards to fish care? What if you did hook a big pike, like you said the drag system is terrible, if it spooled you and then snapped the line? Is it really worth it?
P.S please don’t see this as me bashing you man, it was just a thought
@@mattdunnell2298 a very appropriate thought.
Snap 24lb braid?! Would take some fish that!
Think you got unlucky on that I recon you should do it again to try catch one bigger than the rod
I bet you got some strange looks using that kids rod 😂😂
The Otis works better if you're fishing in the dock of the bay

Today I finally got my dropshot set up 70 quid later 👀😂😂
Love your vids man, do you ever come across trout on your bigger lures and plug's?
Quality 🤣🤣🤣
yay been looking at the underwater action what camera setup do you use ? can we have a how to please
Did you hear any sniggering as people walked by?
Where did you get that rod?😅 my daughter is asking for one. Thanks mate
Do you just walk up and down canals fishing or do you have a licence and get day tickets? Just for personal interest as I don’t know whats best to do?
You must have a fishing license to fish any body of water in the u.k
It’s not how big your rod is it’s how you use it
