Unreal video again Chris really separating yourself from any other anglers at this stage, yes you are blessed with great rivers around u but still takes the skill
Nice1 Chris I really enjoyed this video that canal looks amazing to fish 💯👌🏼 I wish our canal was so productive up here in Edinburgh 🙄 there’s lots of small perch roach & the occasional Jack pike Tight lines pal ✌🏼💙🎣🏴👍🏼
I had a really bad spell of fishing trips recently - last 3 outings I lost large river trout each day, barely landed anything in so many hours... I probably need a break for a week or so. Glad you're doing better 😂
heeey my man!! im form Denmark just caught my pb pike yesterday! 97 cm 14-15 pounds! and much thnaks to you have gotten a lot of really god advice from you!! keep UP FISHING MY MAN!!!
Firstly that canal is a Dream,I’ve caught a few fish in the canals where I live,and I mean a few! But I’ve certainly never seen any because it’s simply not possible,awesome video though,proof that size doesn’t matter 😉
I need a learn to fish series from the ginger fisherman I'm fairly new to fishing and have been watching your videos to learn from as you are good at explaining what u are doing and what u are using and I think a series going through basics and then getting more advanced as it goes along would be amazing and help alot of new anglers out.
Micro lure fishing is all I do these days. Guaranteed multiple fish everytime you go out ! Super cheap to get started in it too ! I used to spend days sometimes trying to get that monster pike or big perch, but on ultra light gear I have a great time fighting small perch! Id recommend it for new anglers as theres a realy low chance you will badly hook a fish, most just come off the hook when you pick them up !
Fantastic! I must try this! You always seem to see the fish, but I NEVER see anything...maybe this is why I do not catch much! Great videos, thank you!🤣
Hey Chris, could you please explain how you unhook these tiny fish? I've had some trouble getting deep hooked 5 inch perch, some of which died which i hate. Thanks!
Amazing video and a real eye-opener as to what’s possible. I’m primarily a lure angler and also a fly fisher and have never had such success on a canal. I used to fish the Basingstoke Canal but it was only perch and pike with the occasional roach that seemed to oblige certainly not as prolific in terms of species variety as the canal you were fishing. Must try a different canal!!
Seeing the bleak reminded me of free lining single maggots for them when I was growing up, I also caught a 5 and a half pounds carp on a size 22 and single maggot on 12 ounce hook length to 3lb mainline
Amazing video as always Chris love it by any chance would you ever do a fan fishing day as would love some personal pointers and tips on pikeing thanks
A great micro bait is the trout magnet mini magnet, I Believe it's a 1/128oz jig with a soft plastic about the same as you were using in the video. I use them to catch shiners smaller than that bleak here in the US
Instead of tungsten, You can use smallest lead shots, normally used in float fishing. You can attach them on the line whenever You need: near or far from the hook.
I'm quite new to lure fishing and don't necessarily understand the intricacies of setup. For example, I accidently bought a 6/0 hook for sea bass fishing with a 12.5cm soft lure and have NO idea if this is stupid... Equally, have no idea about weighting it or anything! Could you maybe do a series of short educational videos on setting up in certain ways for certain species? I can see you've linked the bait, but how exactly is it set up? :)
Hia mate I’m just getting into coarse fishing can you recommend a good little set up to buy which isn’t too expensive and somewhere to fish near to the north wales border ideally around Chester ?
@@elwooddestiny11blues20 probably be using lures around no heavier than 40g as i feel the pike in my local canals aren’t big enough for massive lures i have a 10-40g
same here mate depends on how well the E.A stock the waters here they hired a company to to do the fish life check but rather than paying them told them they could keep any fish below 20lb what resulted was the entire free park fishing lakes where emptied of silvers subsequently destroying the pike fishing and perch fishing and also meaning now you would have to fish for 3 days for a couple bites and they'd all be 10-24lb carp no fast action fishing for smaller carp and silvers on the float which is all I really bother with lure fishing on spinners for small perch was good fun there too shame they ruined it over a bit of money...
My feelings exactly man. I’ve fished the canal by me on lures loads over the last couple of years and seen maybe 4 Pike and not even double figure number of perch. The canal bio here is DREADFUL!!!
@@themacmagician canals are tough going at the best of times. Keep up the grind dude, what do we say, it’s not about catching, it’s about the fresh air/exercise etc… 😂
Catching that Bream was incredible on such a tiny lure. Definitely shows off your angling skills - Well done!!!
I tied, just for fun, a size 32 midge once. Can't tell you if it was any good, I could never find it in my fly box 😂
🤣🤣🤣🎣🐟
Just purchased this rod after watching your vid. That tip of using tungsten putty is just golden mate! Thanks!🎣
Unreal video again Chris really separating yourself from any other anglers at this stage, yes you are blessed with great rivers around u but still takes the skill
Well done! Didn't think you could catch Bream on a lure. But you did and on such light tackle too!
Great vid once again. Always inspirational and makes me want to head out to the river bank. Well done Chris

Very enjoyable,from a sea angler who loves your channel 😂😂🎣🐟
That last Perch was a little stunner

Same! Been struggling 😔.
Great video Chris. Amazes me what you catch from your local ponds canals and rivers.

Love this sort of video. Simple and effective fishing

I really thought it was an ant lure 😂.. wicked vid an angling as per my man
Ha ha, me too😂
Great vidéo 👏 from France 👍
Love your micro lure videos mate. Just shows you can have fun on even tiny streams and ponds with the right gear. Great stuff
I need to start following after you on the bank for all the free landing nets you leave 😂 great video as always!
Is it just me or there is a new soundtrack, another nice one, Chris!
Brilliant 👍 and you know everyone is going to have a crack at this 👌
Brilliant, innovative fishing. Your canal looks like lots of fun. Are there any carp in your canal? They would be fun on that rod!
Another nice video Chris. I swear you'd catch a pike out of a puddle 😂
Fantastic! I must try this! You always seem to see the fish, but I NEVER see anything...maybe this is why I do not catch much! Great videos, thank you!🤣
once again a great video, this is the best fishing video channel on youtube.....
Your a very talented bloke. Well done mate 🎣
Brilliant video Chris super fun fishing with light tactics ❤
Hey Chris, could you please explain how you unhook these tiny fish? I've had some trouble getting deep hooked 5 inch perch, some of which died which i hate.
Thanks!
A disgorger mate, eBay...pennies
Love this video mate, more of similar please mate! 🎣👌
Lovely colour those bream and tench.

Ever caught an eel on the canal on lures mate? Cracking video again top angling 🎣
Great video , love fishing light but never that light I got to give it a try , just a joy to watch
which canal are you fishing on please ..cant believe how big the bleak was ..let alone it was in stillwater ..cheers chris great vids

Awesome matey well done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That is very well done on light tackle, are you interested in tying flys ?
Amazing what you can catch on a mini micro lure , well done Chris. Haven’t caught a bleak since the late 70s .
Since the 70's? On my local lake and river, there's loads.
Nanolure
Instead of tungsten, You can use smallest lead shots, normally used in float fishing. You can attach them on the line whenever You need: near or far from the hook.
Lead free nowadays.Have been for years.Pretty sure it's illegal to sell or use shot containing lead.
@@greggferns3278 Here in Poland is still legal to use lead shots...maybe You have tungsten shots instead of lead shots in UK?
Man, Tench are so beautiful
What a video brilliant as all ways 😊🎉 it’s my birthday tomorrow
HAPPY BIRHDAY
Awesome fishing! 🔥
Incredible that you can catch these type of fishes on a lure, never mind one so small. We'll done.
Really enjoyed this one brother hope you and the family are doing well
Another banger! Absolutely love your channel i binge watch all your vids all the time lol
Brilliant vid. Skill ++
Chris what are those sunglasses? Are those the ones you dropped in river and said there the best ones you ever had
That bream looks just done with life the way it came in
Hi great video, what’s the net your using ? Thanks
same set up with a live maggot would work just as well?
Inspirational mate, I'm starting back up fishing because of you! Piking this weekend 👌💪
That’s such a cool tiny lure
You are simply the best 👌 👊❤️
Chris, if you buy squirmy wormy fly tying material, thats the stuff for your mini lures.
Молодець!!! гарна риболовля!!!
Fair play man!!!!

@fishingtutorials
didn't know you could get tench on the lure awesome stuff :D
Excellent video 😁😎
Hia mate I’m just getting into coarse fishing can you recommend a good little set up to buy which isn’t too expensive and somewhere to fish near to the north wales border ideally around Chester ?
Is the water really clear in that area or does your camera have a polarised lens?
Cheers
Hi just getting into pike fishing can you recommend a good rod and reel thanks
Abu Garcia
i have the abu garcia black max baitcaster combo but dont know if that would be good for targeting pike
@@twhy2wavy814
depends on where your fishing and what weight lures your using , how deep the venue etc . Give some more info .
@@elwooddestiny11blues20 probably be using lures around no heavier than 40g as i feel the pike in my local canals aren’t big enough for massive lures i have a 10-40g
What's the sleave on your arm for? Can I see more bfs fishing, I've got the bfs baitcaster rod and reel combo, terrified for the dreaded backlash 😂
Great content super fun video keep um coming
use a bit of red rubber band cut up in the next one bro! works for perch
What about the humble gudgeon? Great vids mate 👍
would love to see u using pole / match style tactics on your clear canal to catch bream and tench !! tight lines🎣
Great fun!! Have you / anyone tried Flurocarbon mainline? Interested to know how it went...
Combi please
What is the set up
Haha there were once loads of bleak when I fished my local. Nothing now.
Definitely baited up that swim with maggots. Bit inauthentic not to mention your tactics ginger
Well done mate 👍🏻
I had a Gudgeon on a 5cm shad out of my local canal the other day 😂👍🏻
Lovely tench green gills orange eyes ..reminds me of your Dom after a night on the lash 😂
Tench are better looking
That first fish is a dead ringer for a salt water species called a Yellow eyed mullet down here in New Zealand.
They are some very green bream compared to the ones in my local canal
Я твій фанат !
The life in those waters is mental. I could fish like this by me for 10 years and catch nothing.
same here mate depends on how well the E.A stock the waters here they hired a company to to do the fish life check but rather than paying them told them they could keep any fish below 20lb what resulted was the entire free park fishing lakes where emptied of silvers subsequently destroying the pike fishing and perch fishing and also meaning now you would have to fish for 3 days for a couple bites and they'd all be 10-24lb carp no fast action fishing for smaller carp and silvers on the float which is all I really bother with lure fishing on spinners for small perch was good fun there too shame they ruined it over a bit of money...
Same mate lol he has all species to go at aswel..
Agreed mate, the numbers and species in his waters is mental, I'm lucky to catch anything round my way on lures
My feelings exactly man. I’ve fished the canal by me on lures loads over the last couple of years and seen maybe 4 Pike and not even double figure number of perch. The canal bio here is DREADFUL!!!
@@themacmagician canals are tough going at the best of times. Keep up the grind dude, what do we say, it’s not about catching, it’s about the fresh air/exercise etc… 😂
A change of venue would good mate 👍
used to use #10 creek hooks in the 70s..tiny lol but your hook is smaller
you could use fluonylon as a lead it can hold a lot of weight for it's diameter
would love to see you fish Irish canals. I don't not if its my lack of skill or just crap canals
This man could probably catch a fish with just a hook .
Bro you have very beautiful videos. What a tench!
Great video
Fly fishing in Colorado you can use size 20-26 flies year round and realistically you can’t go much bigger than that or you’ll spook fish
What main line was you using?
10:52 Did he just hook into a pike sat on his bike 🤯
Just awesome
When do we get to see the new ink Chris?
Большое спасибо за такой колоссальный опыт.Который вы нам дарите.Удачи, здоровья,мира ,добра и везения!
NY chance of you maybe hooking up with the sb boys for a session on thier stretch?
What canal is this i need to give it a go because mine are all rubbish
Wish canals around me would be that clear !!! 😢
I thought the ant was the lure😂.
