I'm 44, my granddad took me fishing the second I could walk and I'm still fishing. I fished with nets, lines, lures, baits, sea, salt, crabbing, everything that came to my possibilities. Catching crab in a net is called fishing. Cathing a wild pike in a handnet, is damn good fishing . Catching a big ass pike with a pike on a pike needs to be a story for the next decades in a pub close to where it happened ❣ In the local dialect we call it in french : doublé
Ye that was cool well done man awesome 1 in a life time that lol bet if u added that right u would get loads of views of that, pike off a pike off a pike mint 😊
@@Truth-And-Freedom Wtf are you talking about? He is obviously fishing on some crazy stocked rivers. Snagged Bros are fishing on normal rivers so its more realistic.
If you hadn't filmed this, no one would have believed you. Another typical "Ginger Fisherman" action of course. I've seen you do the strangest things. Tench and bream on a lure, for example. Very special.... Keep goin' on and take care. Greetz from Holland 🇱🇺👊🏻
I can't believe it! I commented on your last video that if anyone could do a hattrick of pike in one net it would be you. Little did I know you'd already done it and in SPECTACULAR fashion. Brilliant Chris, well done mate! < <
That's amazing, brilliant to have gotten it on video,be a real fisherman s tale to recount otherwise!! Really well done and definitely counts. Love ur videos and the way you look after the pike.
@@mickgriffen322 that's what my Yankee misspelling 'Smart' phone did. Its more like the Untied States of the Continent of America. Most Yankees do not know the difference between a Country and a Continent. One Continent . That is the reason its mot the United States of North America. Hope you are getten that!
I remember catching a 5 lb Pike decades ago and being thrilled….. What you did is mind boggling! Congratulations on having one of the most amazing fish stories… Thanks for sharing….(and not only a story, but video proof as well!) 👍🏻🍻😎
Whats also amazing is that you got it all on camera! Many years ago in the 70s, as a teenager, i used to fish for carp using worms, once i caught a small pike on worm and as i was playing it, a bigger pike bit into the smaller pike and wouldn't let go. I netted them both. The same year, and you will like this Chris, i caught, on worm, a 4lb 12oz perch for which i won the club trophy, which i still have today.
Woah!!! My biggest one is on a float in this september it was 920 grams near a kilogram i think its about 2lb and my float rods line was damaged it had 2 knots and still landed it :D
With access to such modest fisheries, you have a remarkable catch rate. Well done. But, beyond that, thank you for great entertainment, and excellent production values. You deserve to succeed.
In the good old days, when I lived in Scotland, I used to fish a wee loch by a rail line. It was full of nice perch and even rumoured to have carp and roach in it. I used to use an earth worm on the surface to catch jack pike and then use them to live bait for bigger pike. They were very effective. Much better than live perch I sometimes used. I would take some perch and even a pike home to eat. They were very tasty!
Well, You kept that one In the bag, Chris. What a Brace of two beauties In one net. I have seen this done with Pike quite often. But It Is rare to get both In the Net at the same time, well done. And that final one would be welcome any time of the Year. Almost time to go for that Huge 30+ on that swim. Keep 'Em Coming.
Definitely counts. Fishing doesn’t just involve hooks. Plenty of anglers have caught pike that have been chewing on another fish that is on the end of the hook.
Brilliant "The Matryoshka Pike" lol...... I'd claim it counted Chris and congratulations it must have been one hell of a high. I also like the improvisation with the old beach rod rest 👌
Kin amazing Chris. I had a similar one years ago. A 30 plus pike on a 5lb pike on a 1/2 roach. Half an hour fight to snapped line. Couldn't believe it. What you did was probably a one of and one to be proud of. Hat's of to you sir. Quality mate
Amazing video as always chris, i myself might be one of a rare few that uses only barbless trebles lure fishing, ive had a few big fish throw the hooks and elude me but more bad hookups even on barbless that ive had to cut the hookpoints out to remove. Before i get any flack its a personal preference and im not hating on barbed hooks, each to their own. Ive recently been using palatrax gripz trebles and they have so far proved way more effective than standard barbless, worth a try for one of your videos maybe …
Appreciate your honesty to admit a not intended accident: hook through the eyes of small pike. You did not have to tell this, but you did. Respect.107cm. Majestic animal.
Remember once Roach fishing on the Dorset Stour near a place called Throop, caught a nice sized Roach of about a pound in weight as just as i was netting it, a large ish Pike grabbed hold of it, i tried netting the pike with it, The pike was not hooked or line tangled, just did not want to let go of the Roach, Sadly the Roach did not Survive and i did not manage to bag the pike either, but my heart was pounding throughout the whole experiance...Awesome catch, and i say it counts very much so.
That big boy pike was an absolute beast, you could’ve put a saddle on that thing. Great video man, next challenge is a pike on a pike on a pike on a pike!
Fantastic great video as for single hooks I started using a month ago with great success until I hooked a jack in the eye socket so probably going back to smaller barbless trebles. Nice touch using the tournament measure unhooking mat
Great video again. I have had the same, but a little bit different....a perch on a perch on a perch. But that looked so cold out there, respect! I would count it as a catch, as you landed it.
Outstanding Chris. Three in a cast, shame it wasn't in the YPC ! Even more impressive, you still have a net at the end of the video...im Chubb'd for ya

That guy on snagged Bro can't even catch 1 pike !
😂😂😂
Ginger got the fish on the bank so he must have caught it 👍
@@Truth-And-Freedom Wtf are you talking about? He is obviously fishing on some crazy stocked rivers. Snagged Bros are fishing on normal rivers so its more realistic.
@@Zoltan1251 yeah it's not like the snagged Bro guy gets bites and doesn't set the hook eh ............
You used a 7lb pike as a lure, I’d say that means it counts! Incredible video mate!
If you hadn't filmed this, no one would have believed you. Another typical "Ginger Fisherman" action of course. I've seen you do the strangest things. Tench and bream on a lure, for example. Very special....
Keep goin' on and take care.

Unreal, never seen anything like that before. Yes, it counts. Well done!
Absolutely awesome what a catch on a cold winter day and what a surprise.
I can't believe it! I commented on your last video that if anyone could do a hattrick of pike in one net it would be you. Little did I know you'd already done it and in SPECTACULAR fashion. Brilliant Chris, well done mate! < <
only seen 2 ,look like the bait dropped off
@@troywales983 Or swallowed? In which case, for me, it still counts. ;~)
If you never filmed it, no one would believe it. It's truly an amazing feat there, fella!
Genuine no BS youtuber. I think your videos are great and you deserve every sub you get.
That's amazing, brilliant to have gotten it on video,be a real fisherman s tale to recount otherwise!! Really well done and definitely counts. Love ur videos and the way you look after the pike.

I like the fact your always smiling. Clearly living the dream
Your nothing more than a little boy....living a dream.absolutely beautiful. Well done mate,incredible!!!!
Yes, if you count the ones you catch in a net! Great footage nice one. An anglers tale.
With a story like that it counts! That's a fishing story you won't beat in a hurry! From South Africa.
In my mind, the fact that you used the pike on the road as a lure to get the big one close enough to net absolutely counts. That was pure skill!
Fantastic stuff, Chris, that was an absolute joy to watch. How amazing to be able to catch it on camera - who would have believed it otherwise?
Exactly
Does it count, does it matter. You’ve had a great experience Chris, that’s what matters. Stunning.
And be it said the best UK RUclips fisherman hands down 🙌 GINGER FISHERMAN!! What a guy you cease to amaze me! LEGEND!
... you never cease ... ;-)

Way to go! This is awesome! These are the moments that take fishing to the next level! Great job with the netting :)
What an awesome double catch bro, awesome video as normal
Fantastic and worthy of being on Tales from the Riverbank. Definitely counts great stuff. Well done.
You can’t get much more epic than that my man!! What a cool catch!!
With access to such modest fisheries, you have a remarkable catch rate. Well done. But, beyond that, thank you for great entertainment, and excellent production values. You deserve to succeed.
