Impressive stock of fish, and a river clean enough for grayling. I expect everyone in the area will be lashing that stretch of river after watching this!
Enjoyed the video. I appreciate waiting with the ledger and rod rests; my experience is that often you have to wait patiently for the biggest fish,as a youngster l used to use Mums sqeezey washing up bottle lids between first and second eye. Always knew if a trout had picked up as it would jerk violently once or twice before it took. It’s a killer method with worm in a deep hole
I like how you said that the video would demonstrate your ability with the net and then missed the trout twice😅 Mindyou, I think Callum could have offered you a go under the bridge after his first 2 instead of hogging it😁 Only gentlemanly 😉 That's a lot of decent sized trout in just the one place. You sure they were all different Oh and don't diss the grayling. Love catching grayling, less smash n grab than trout but lots of fun nevertheless
He did let me have a good go under there its my own fault! I don't have much experience fishing with bait so spent a lot of time messing around with my rig and getting snagged! It was a nice grayling I do enjoy catching them just get a bit worried about interrupting their spawning in the off season. And yeah I think they were all different judging by the markings looking after, I was sure a couple of them were the same. Very surprising that there were that many, doubt they'd take a worm twice so quickly wild trout tend to be quite intelligent!
I agree, wild trout are lots of fun to catch. Grayling too. I went fishing yesterday at Elinor near Kettering, nice lake but all stockies. When I visit my folks I pop to the Ribble Calder etc and dome of the smaller tributaries. Much more fun In August I'm off to Shetland to visit.my brother. Small peaty lochs, hundreds of em. Never know what you re going to get. Great fun. Keep the bids coming. Cheers Callum
You certainly know how to catch them trout! Sculpin or bullhead ?? They come from a very similar family of fish… used to call them a Millersthumb as a nickname !! Used to get some decent size ones on the river leven in North Yorkshire .. some nice stone loach too !! I love catching them back in the day. Cracking video … look forward to the next one 👍🏽👍🏽🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
I wish I knew how to catch them a bit better I didn't have one trout! I've never caught a bullhead or a stone loach, nice to know there's plenty of new species out there for me to catch! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the comment!
@@adventurefishinguk love ya videos as you well know me lad. 👍🏽😀 …. catch them on a single maggot and size 20 barbless hook….. river leven at great Ayton or stokelsey is the place to go ….. lots of people about though … oh … and lots of minnows too 👍🏽👍🏽😀😀
Are these browns migratory or were they planted from a hatchery program? Our cutthroat trout here in WA State rivers are migratory but we plant rainbow in our lakes. Very nice video.
This is the reason I go fishing alone pal I thought your friend would have let you in after he got a couple but hey ho what part of the country is Congleton? As always take it easy and Tight lines ✌🏻💙👍🏻❤️🎣🏴
Hi, do you ever keep the fish you catch? Been trawling the internet for days to find out what the rules are. From what I can gather, different clubs seem to own the rights to different stretches of river. Are there any resources you can recommend to find out where I go and catch some fish that I can take home? Ideally rivers rather than stocked ponds. From what I can see there are clubs that stock ponds and you can pay to take a couple of fish
I do occasionally keep a fish but it's very rare. Stick to stocked lakes mate if it's trout you're after, not ideal to eat wild ones from rivers they're too prized as a game fish these days!
I'll have to look into the rules on the river thanks for the tip! I don't usually use bait like that but if one was false hooked or swallowed the hook I'd definitely be tempted
I work in marketing for a construction services company part time mate! I’m currently on two days a week doing that and the rest of the time fishing related. Tough going financially though It’s a small income but things are growing so hopefully one day!
Nice video, can you recommend line strength and type just for general lure fishing for pike perch and trout etc? Messaged you on Instagram but not heard back yet
Thanks mate! Sorry I get a lot of spam on instagram from bot accounts it can be easy for messages to get lost in that. For trout I'd recommend 8-10lb maxima chameleon mono depending on how big the fish are you're targeting. For perch maybe 6-8lb, and for pike fishing maybe 40lb braid with a wire trace. Hope this helps!
@@adventurefishinguk Excellent Thanks! Looking forward to more videos. Same with instagram as well, I run it for a local Scout District and we get loads of Spam come through as well as on my Personal Account
The trout at 7 minutes in was beautifully spotted, prettiest fish I've ever seen.
Thanks for watching mate!

Grayling is an absolute favourite. The lady of the Stream.
Great fun to catch aren't they!

Can't wait to get in some fish. Juat moved here from The states. If you're ever around kendal I sure could use a few pointers 🎣🎣🎣🎣
I live near to kendal mate I'd be happy to do a bit of fishing with you! give me a message on @ bongsfishing on instagram 👍
@@adventurefishinguk awesome man , will do forsure.
Loved it guy's
Thank you!
Great video. I have done similar in Sheffield.
Really surprising how many there were under there!
Yup defo bullhead, caught many in fish traps before in the river itchen
Thanks for the ID!
The fish is a bullhead from the sculpin family it is the only freshwater sculpin fish in the U.k.
I didn't know that thanks for the info!
And they are rare,so why used them as bait!
Lovely video mate! Beautiful minnow! 😉
Thank you, surprised it took a jig though!
Should take a couple they lovely to eat from the brook
I believe in catch and release for the most part mate!
The small fish was a fresh water sculpin.
Never heard of that thanks for letting me know!
Nice little sculpin too👍
Are these browns migratory or were they planted from a hatchery program? Our cutthroat trout here in WA State rivers are migratory but we plant rainbow in our lakes. Very nice video.
Little fish could be a Ruffe
Quite possibly!
Millers thumb or bellend fish indicates good quality water enviroment .
Haha have to say i've not heard of a bellend fish before
Great vid mate!
Thank you!
Nice video
Thanks Darren I appreciate it!
Had grayling under the same bridge 👍🏻
Seemed full of fish when I was there!
What is the river?
@@christophergomersall1266river Dane in congleton bottom of rood hill….
Ravishing Water might have been enjoying across the floor
Not too sure what you mean by that
The day you out fish me George will be a proud moment.
Haha one day I’ll have the home advantage it’ll make all the difference
@@adventurefishinguk oh game on let's do it
This is the reason I go fishing alone pal I thought your friend would have let you in after he got a couple but hey ho what part of the country is Congleton? As always take it easy and Tight lines ✌🏻💙👍🏻❤️🎣🏴
The North West mate! We did try to get me one, for some reason fishing with worms has never done very well for me! Thanks for watching 👍
Snorgärs in Swedish
👍
How did you know that the fish was a He?
My son would like to know thanks 😊 very much
I dont know, It's just a phrase! Apologies for assuming its gender
older people called that a "galley nipper'
Well i never knew that! Thanks for watching
And fish over net don’t stab at um or u will cop it…. Grandad says 😃
😂👍

Red Hill
I think Callum was catching the same trout...Great net work though George 😬
Thank you! I was convinced he was at one point but all the close ups are different!
Grate video what river is this
Not sure of the name mate its my friends local stretch in Cheshire!
At 2:00 minutes in the video what was in the back someone white?
Someone running past i think mate!
Is that fish not a ruff
I don't think so
If you’re allowed to, use those sculpin as bait in that hole. You’ll pull out the biggest trout in that hole with a sculpin 👍🏼
I'll have to look into the rules on the river thanks for the tip! I don't usually use bait like that but if one was false hooked or swallowed the hook I'd definitely be tempted
Live baits shouldn't be allowed. Already banned in Ireland.
@@NikoHL he didnt say it would be live
Stikleback
Could be 👍
Where is this
A river in Cheshire mate
Is your professional job all fishing related? Or do you have another job?

@@adventurefishinguk good luck mate
Bullhead catfish
Interesting, I didn’t think I we had any native members of the catfish family in the U.K.!
@@adventurefishinguk yes I am pretty sure it is a bullhead tho
Also called a miller thumb
where is this place?
In cheshire
Where abouts was this
In Cheshire
No one know what that little weird fish was with the weird bit coming out of it? Wtf
A bullhead I think it was!
@@adventurefishinguk strange looking little thing 🤣
The weird bit was the worm
he used as bait ! !
I eat them.
Catch and release for me!
