Fishing an old ABANDONED Quarry... Then something CRAZY happened! 😯

- I couldn't believe what happened while fishing this overgrown abandoned quarry... there are some HUGE fish in here. I love fishing wild and unique places like this and for good reason, you just never know what's going to happen! I've done a lot of perch fishing in here before, mostly lure fishing, and have even caught a big one. But can we catch an even bigger fish this time? As well as my normal lures, I brought along some worms following the advice given to me by people who have fished here before. What will we catch?

I love ponds like this. There were a few around my town in southern Lincolnshire. Sadly in recent years they've both been fenced off and posted with no fishing signs, due to a number of people caught poaching with fixed nets and long lines.
One was dug by a nearby factory and fed by an adjacent drain. Originally used as a holding pond for part of their water supply, once they switched fully to main water it was full of perch and roach/dace from the drain inlet, and it was stocked with carp and tench. Speaking to older locals, we found out it was only 6ft at it's deepest and no one had really fished it for over a decade. We cut a few clearings to the bank, and cleared the weeds/snags. Managed to fish it every day for months before anyone else discovered it.
The other was a holding pond next to a train line and was originally used to refill steam engines.
No idea how any fish got in there, as it was miles from the river, but it was full of bream, roach, eels, and nothing else.. I can only assume they got stuck after a nearby dyke must have flooded before the relief channel for the river was built and flooding was more common.
No one else ever fished there, never saw anyone or any signs anyone had been fishing there, apart from a one man boat that was always moored in a different spot...
Eventually after almost a decade of fishing there all the fish seemed to vanish from one week to the next.
That sounds like you had a few really cool spots, a shame they were fenced off! The mystery about fishing these kinds of places is the best bit!
I worked in Quarries for 10 years as an Electrician. Every quarry has a source of fresh water and they have always been the most consistent fishing I’ve ever done. Mainly bc they’re never fished.
That’s cool to hear! By any chance do you know any I could have a go fishing? Or are you not Uk based
@@adventurefishinguk I’m not man. I’m in the U.S. wish I could help
👍
@@adventurefishingukwhere is this one pal?
Thank you for putting her back
Catch and release only for me mate no need for the thanks!
I love it, im relying on watching you catch the big uns, i broke my back a month ago so im stuck in hospital and in a wheelchair for the rest of my life but my goal is to be ready for some lure fishing the start of next summer ☀️
Thanks for watching! Fingers crossed I do get some big ones. I remember you commented recently, very sorry to hear about your back. When you're feeling up to it i'd be happy to come along if you wanted some company!
DeekM, so sorry to hear about your back buddy,best wishes to you in the future,stay strong mate and good luck getting out there fishing
hope you improve bud, people that are told they will be like that can improve i hope you do,
@@lazycarper That is exactly the same think I was thinking. One thing I do know is get back out there and live the best life you can. A great attitude will carry you to places that may surprise you!
All the best for you carrying on, setbacks are just challenges, getting out and a about, carrying on with the life you can is the key, tight lines!
You're taking adventure fishing to a whole new level these days. These little hidden waters are almost always worth the effort. Even if you don't catch, the experience is something you can't get anywhere else.
Thanks mate, really appreciate that! Yeah I couldn’t agree more, it’s great fun 👍
It's amazing what fish eggs water birds pick up on the legs and feathers and carry to other waters, ponds etc. Nice trout & Perch lad..
Thanks mate! Is that how you reckon the fish got in there?
Love walking through the woods and finding forgotten ponds. They don't always pan out but once in a while I'll find a honey hole.
Yeah it’s the best way to fish in my opinion!
Yep, that does deserve a subscribe! Well done mate.
Please don't shout at me, people, but I honestly think that rascal would have been coming home with me and would be on a plate with some new potatoes and mangetout peas.
Maybe. Nah, I doubt it actually.
Beautiful fish, though!

Thanks a lot for subscribing mate I appreciate it! Catch and release for me 👍
Great one this one George!
Love how excited you get, and what a trout? Almost hybrid salmon?? lol
Well done working your way around that lake pal!
Keep em coming 👍🏼👍🏼
Al
Thanks for watching, really glad you enjoyed this one! Beast of a fish wasn’t it, huge mouth!
I don’t catch a ton of perch, but I’m never unhappy when I do!! They are beautiful fish, even the little guys!!
Couldn’t agree more! Thanks for watching
Incredible fish mate! Love your enthusiasm.but the lady that went swimming in there Brrrrrrr 🥶FairPlay.
Thanks mate! Yeah the swimming lady is the one that deserves all the praise here!
I would go swimming with her Immediately , except, that there Must be at least some sun !!! ! !!! 😀
That was absolutely mad. No way would you expect brown trout to be in there. Really shocked. Also shocked about the crazy woman. You can get cramp in those conditions. Great find that gravel pit. Had a few two pound perch in my time. Always a great fighter
Crazy isn't it! I've heard someone might have put it in there 8 years ago. Thanks for watching!
Perch are really hardy, we stocked a rooftop water tank with perch and they were still going strong year's later
I wouldn't be asking what a trout is doing in there, I would be wondering why people leave the trash behind
Yeah it’s a huge shame isn’t it, really upsetting to see. Thanks for watching the video though!
Every time I go fishing I take a garbage bag with me I'm a bank fisherman and I always leave with it at least half full its disgusting so many ppl are just plain ignorant
@@adventurefishinguklisten bro I don't know if you are familiar with these spots but if you love course fishing which you do then you should really get your ass up there. I'm talking about Stanhope in Co Durham, and if you love quarries then get yo butt there I shit you not you'll love it. My old man is from there and they are stocked with trout, tench, perch, carp, roach, bream and more. Trust me mate you'll love it they are right next to the river wier some of them. Let me know if you've been before they have monster fish and if you haven't then get yo ass there, the people are lovely straight up people and the fishing is awesome, both in the quarries and the river wier.
@@justinhachey4931I do the same mate, It really p**s me off, there's no reason to dump rubbish. That and people not cleaning up after their dogs... 🤬. 👍✌️
Britain is a filthy country, the entire place is treated as an open bin by some people
Mate that trout was amazing. Well done
Thanks mate, very unique fish wasn’t it. Probably one of my favourite!
What a nice trout and a great fishing locale. Another great adventure. Hope to see some sea fishing again.
Thanks mate, a really cool spot isn’t it! Sea fishing will probably next be in spring 👍
Seem like a genuinely nice bloke. Really happy to be out fishing, great positivity!
Thanks mate, that’s very kind of you! I appreciate it 👍
That's just crazy. Your boy is adorable.
Thanks for watching mate, much appreciated!
That fish will keep getting bigger 😲😲😲
Definitely looked like a fish eater so I reckon so!
Amazing video as always and so jealous you get to visit these beautiful spots.
I really have to stop using big lures and go back to my smaller ones as you prove time and time again you still get beautiful fish even with those small lures.
Thanks for watching mate! Yeah smaller ones can definitely work well. Funnily enough, for me the stick bait is quite a big lure for perch fishing!
Mepps Aglias and Comet's in small sizes are excellent spinner's, 0's and 1's
What a gorgeous brown!
Awesome vid mate 👍 had 6 chub out of the river yesterday, going big perch hunting on the canal soon 🎣
Well done mate that sounds like a great days fishing!
How cute is your boy! 😊 You DEFINITELY have to go back and see what else is on tap. Best of luck and tight lines.👍🏻🔥
Adorable isn't he! Thanks for watching 👍
My buddies and I used to fish several old abandoned limestone quarries around our area and they all held monster bass and catfish - it was amazing to go there would be no one else around and we would be hauling in lunkers day after day. That was like 50 years ago and those days are long gone but the memories are still there! Lots of fun and good eating too.
I am not a fisherman but it could be catching! Great video.
Thanks for watching, much appreciated!
I love these kind of spots. So much mystery as to what's in them. I'm watching from Canada and as soon as I saw the water, the first thing I thought was, "Brown trout!" Though I am a trout fisherman, I'm always tempted when I catch a brown to keep them because they taste so good! You got 2 wet feet, but that was a beautiful fish!
Yeah I love these kinds of places too I find fishing them absolutely fascinating! Catch and release culturally for wild trout over here in the UK 👍
Nice catch! Great video to watch this early Christmas morning in Grand Rapids, Michigan, U.S.A.
Thanks mate! Really cool to hear you’re watching from the USA. Thanks for the support and merry Christmas!
I would say that trout is over 10 years old. Great catch, let’s hope it stays there for another 10 years.
I’d say so too, what’s the life expectancy of a trout? Thanks for watching!
@@adventurefishinguk depends on water quality, predation and food availability, but it’s possible to get 15 to 20 years for wild browns
Cracking trout.. well done mate
Thanks a lot mate!
Top video matey 👍 love watching yourself, snagged bro and the Ginger 1 lol, oh and not to forget the OG at Ta fishing 😉 😂
Thanks mate, means a lot you put me in the same category as those big names!
Lovely video pal , keep up the amazing work, takes a lot of effort, thanks.
Thanks for watching mate glad you enjoyed this one!
Your lil man is adorable!! Mine is a few months short of his 5th bday…and trust me, the fun has just begun!! Mine has finally started to really take interest in my fishing!! Once the weather breaks, I’m hoping this is the year he becomes my mini fishing partner!!
Thanks mate much appreciated! I can’t wait to get Alfie out fishing with me. Really hope he takes to it! And yes summer is definitely the better time of year to ease a 5 year old into fishing. You don’t want to scare him away from it with cold weather!
Awesome fish! and a nice little adventure :) nice video mate, well done
Thanks a lot for watching mate, much appreciated!
Wow loved the video first time watching .
Thanks for watching and I’m glad you liked it!
That's why you should always watch the video all the way through I almost gave you a bad a bad call but since I saw you throw back an edible fish thumbs up 10% there you go thumbs up for you
Catch and release always for me mate! Thanks for watching
Cool fish, bro!
Thanks mate!
Beautiful brown trout
Thanks mate!
That's a nice big brown trout
Thanks mate! Beauty wasn’t it 👍
That's my favourite area to fish.i have fished in many quarries like the setting,the steep walls the clean clear water the scenery t great.sometimes there's quality fish of all kinds in them the limiting factor is because the steep terrain really cuts down your access to a lot of the area.i still like doing it
Brilliant to see fish coming out like that! Wish I had something like that near me!
A proper fish wasn't it! Thanks for watching
I'd try deadbaiting using a small roach or something like a minnow while lure fishing aswell I think that would pick the bigger perch out that live there
yeah I think that would be a good shout. Looking at the size of the trouts mouth it's definitely a fish eater too so might even run into this one again!
@@adventurefishinguk 🤞 tight lines
I was just thinking that, if I was in America, I'd say buy shiners. Maybe try one of them fishtaps they use and catch small roach and maybe minnows or sticklebacks if there's any
@@Deekm69 yeah perch and bass are very similar predatory fish both have huge mouths and feed in a similar way only difference is bass get alot bigger 👍
@@Deekm69 you can't use traps and cast nets in UK freshwater. Any traps you can use, i.e. Cray traps, require licences
Loved this vid .... exciting venue and beutiful trout thanks for upload bro
Thanks for taking the time to watch mate!
great adventure. you have been enjoying the day. nice to see your channel growing 👍💪🎣
Thanks mate, really appreciate the kind words!
I love yellow perch fishing, here in the states, we have a unique fishery where the migrate through salt water to a brackish or fresh water , then congregate in the small creeks to spawn , usually starts in February here on the eastern shore of Maryland
That's really cool to hear I had no idea the species could tolerate brackish water. Thanks for watching!
Brilliant little spot and a whopping trout. Great stuff. 👍
Thanks mate, an absolute beauty wasn’t it!
What a fine trout! With a fish that size in a quarry that small, there has to be a good food source for them. Loved the video!
Thanks mate! I think it's been feeding on fish by the looks of things, young roach and perch i'd say!
Insane swimming in there it's a bit isolated.
I know, fair play to her!
@@adventurefishinguk was she naked?
@@lazycarper i don’t think so, I purposefully looked away 😂
@@adventurefishinguk you had to say that because ur GF reads the comments
@@WillyEckaslike hahaha 🤫
Got to say you are up.there with my favourite you tubers keep.the videos coming mate ❤
Thanks mate, really appreciate that!
Brilliant video buddy and what a surprise that trout was 👌
Thanks mate, it was a huge surprise I had no idea one was in there!
"It's only 5 degrees..." Hahaha, that means something completely different where I'm watching this from. Cool beans man, cute kid. Thanks for the video and please have a good New Year Sir.
Haha yeah quite different in farenheit! Thanks for watching and all the best for 2024!
One thoroughly enjoyable video
and one new subscriber !
Thanks for subscribing, really appreciate it!
Such a unique low impact lake to fish. It would be fun to lower a small boat and paddle around. Perch are very tasty, and what a beautiful trout!
Yeah by-boat would be a great way to fish it! Just catch and release for me though 👍 Thanks for watching!
Well done m8 good to see you put em back , looked a lovely place ,nice n peaceful .
Thanks for watching mate! I always put them back 👍
Superb as ever. Love the channel
Thanks for watching!
what a stunning fish..Top bombing dood... have a great christmas 👍
Thanks for watching mate I appreciate it! Merry Christmas 👍
...Outstanding! Great video thank you...
Thanks a lot for watching mate!
@@adventurefishinguk ...Loved it...
Beautiful Brown Trout. ! See on caught in a quarry is amazing in itself.
Thanks mate, i completely agree!
Spot on catch.
Thanks mate!
Excellent catch mate,epicdrone footage,the little man is growing up so fast 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks mate! Yeah he’s growing up scarily quick 👍
@adventurefishinguk it won't be long till he is by your side on the bank,learning how to catch them 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent !
Thanks for watching!
Nice trout. That quarry must have some cold water. Nice chubby perch too.👍
Thanks mate! Yeah it was freezing 👍
Great vid and totally agree about the trash issue - many D-heads out there. So did you clarify how the trout got into that wee lake??
Such a shame isn’t it! I heard someone put one trout in there 7 years ago so it could well be that one!
Pretty fish!
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic location as usual goerge wish you and your family merry Christmas definitely go back👍
Thanks mate, had great fun here! Merry Christmas to you and yours 👍
the little guy is so cute
Thank you he’s growing up fast!
now that was fantastic well done to catch a wild brown trout in a old quarry with no internal stream flowing in to it is amazing
Thanks mate, that fish must have quite the story. I reckon someone put it in there when it was young and it’s grown on!
super mate
What a mean looking proper Wild Trout that is...fantastic
A know, scary looking thing isn’t it!
Ferox ! Judging from the shape
of the jaw. ?
That was class mate
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it!
Thats what i call dedication, and nicely rewarded too 👏🏼.I can't see your average southerner doing that 😇👀
Haha thank you, had great fun this trip!
What an adventure that was. I think on hindsight it was worth the wet feet for the pb trout 😂. Im guessing you are starting to have a new favourite lure now. It wont be long until you have Alfie on the bank with you now.
Haha yeah definitely worth the wet feet! Fingers crossed the lure keeps working the way it is 👍
Fantastic video and what a beautiful brown trout in a quarry as well i never thought at the start of the video you would catch one of them in there 🎣👏definitely worth subscribing I look forward to watch the next one 👍😊
Thanks for subscribing mate I really appreciate you sticking around! Yeah I was really surprised to see it in there 👍
Hello George. …. Hope you and the famalam are all doing great ….
What a cracking video and an amazing place … that big ole wild trout certainly loved that lure you were using and congrats on your P.B perch too. What a lovely fish and I’m still trying to break the 3 pound barrier !!!! Hope you’re all sorted for Xmas and have a good one and congratulations & thankyou for making these amazing videos and sharing it all ……. You’re a top bloke !!! Cracking my friend and you deserve all the happiness for all your hard work ! 👍😄🎣🎄🥰
How very kind of you thanks John! Really glad you’ve been enjoying the videos. I liked filming and editing this one a lot. We’re all sorted for Christmas yes, I hope you and yours have a great one too!
@@adventurefishinguk no problem my lad and I’m sure everyone will agree too !!! Haven’t done any fishing for a good few months now as been really busy with family and working away and being ill etc etc and been crazy. Things calming down now and just need some good luck and stuff to come my way … But looking forward to some family time and hopefully a few hours fishing too. All the best and look forward to the next vid 👍👍👍👍🎄🎄🎄🎄😄😄😄😄
What a lovely location
Not interested in heavily stocked carp lakes with toilet blocks and tackle shops but this sort of thing really interests me.
Me too, couldn’t agree more! Thanks for watching 👍
Fantastic 😊
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it!
amazing!!
Thanks for watching!
Great video
Thanks for watching!
Nice fish and Beautiful scenery
Thanks for watching mate!
@@adventurefishinguk you're welcome dude. Happy New Year from Omaha Nebraska
Yes mate. What a cracking location. New sub
Thanks for subscribing mate I really appreciate that!
No way thas pukka mate Trout unreal 👌 well happy or what
Thanks mate, I’m over the moon with that!
Well done fella
Thanks mate!
I had royals threw few trout species in there, but that place without catch and release will not manage to hold on to. Lakes like this must always be harvested with fish or simply turn into dead pools of water. Beautiful place indeed.
I believe in catch and release for all wild fish more or less!
@@adventurefishinguk You can get more wild like this at the local fishing harvestry farm...thats not a real wild fish, but yeah you should treat one like it is because state resources $$$ allocated to re population of fish in such quarries/ponds are scarce...
I miss fishing already, beautiful spot buddy😊
Thank you, amazing place isn’t it!
Nice catch!
Thanks mate!
Used to fish an old estate lake many moons ago like 30 years plus, the lake was full of perch, we used to watch them herding bait fish into the shallows, it was not unusual to cast a bare hook and get perch fry take it, hook up the fry cast it out to catch a bigger perch, rinse and repeat, but the only way to get to the 3 pound plus was scaled down pike rigs with a chunky balsa float or poly ball and live bait roach, artificials just got hammered by juveniles.
That sounds like a great place to fish I bet there was some monsters in there! Thanks for watching 👍
@@adventurefishinguk oh it was! I always believed the British record was living in there, only myself and a few school friends ever fished it, funny looking back how we ignored the huge quarry lake that we had to go past to get to it, although that might have something to do with some local legends and the tributary that we had to cross where we saw sea trout running, never really knew or much cared how big the fish in there were but lost count of how many times my 3 pound scales bottomed out, life was so much simpler then!
Imagine if the quarry was higher. Way more thrill in my mind
Do you mean higher altitude or higher walls?
Que agradable y interesante video ;)
I like to Go Fishing and Those were great Catches. Especially that Beauty Of that Rainbow Trout.
Thanks mate! It was actually a wild brown trout 👍
Awesome
Thanks for watching mate!
yes, thats deserve a subscribe!
Thanks a lot mate, much appreciated!
😂hubby thought you had hooked the swimmer and were calling her a trout 😂 Best random cameo yet 😂and Alfie sounded Scottish pronouncing "no" or is that Lancashire?
Haha no that would’ve been great footage though 😂 not quite sure on his pronunciation, could he Scottish could be anything really! General toddler pronunciation I think
What a nice surprise
Absolutely! Didn’t even know they were in there
@@adventurefishinguk the places are rare and magical.
Nice work Awesome
Thanks for watching mate!
Very nice colouring and spots on the wild born trout.
Amazing fish wasn't it!
Nice work mate what a lovely surprise 🫡🇬🇧
Thanks mate, was over the moon with it!

Thanks for using barbless
Thanks for watching!
Fished an old quarry myself the Bass were crazy hit the bobber and if you caught a bluegill good luck getting him past the Bass very fun though 😊
Really cool to hear, it's my dream to come fishing in america one day!
yer boy knows the word "no" really, really well. it's almost like he hears it a million times a day...
I love fishing there 😮
Have you caught any nice fish from there?
Nice brown trout
Thanks mate!
What a crackin' trout.
Awesome location to.
👊🏻🇱🇺
Thanks mate, was a beast wasn’t it!
Impressive brown trout from such an unlikely place. Great video
I thought so too, thanks for watching!
