    I don't understand the amount of dislikes you get on some of your videos.
    This is probably the most relatable fishing anyone in the UK can watch and maybe learn from, I've watched a lot of channels and learned most from you.
    I mean, if you don't like the guys videos why are you clicking on every one of them and downvoting them lol, just click elsewhere.

    I grew up and live alongside the Leeds Liverpool canal, so many great species to be caught in what is a relatively small stretch. I’ve caught large perch, roach, eels crucian carp and pike on there over the years. There are many beautiful parts of the canal, around haigh country park in particular. Perch has always been my favourite fish, it was the first one I caught when fishing with my late dad as a kid, and caught many since . They’re just a beautiful fish . Freshwater bass apparently? Makes sense

    Beautiful perch and that last one was a stonker.
    I’ve never really seen the point of measuring the length though. 42cm doesn’t mean anything to me, I would prefer to know the weight as that is more accurate. What I mean by that is, you can can have a long thin fish that can weigh less than a short fat one, so therefore is actually a smaller catch. Obviously though, weighing them is more of a faff 😊
    Great video as always!

    • @slaneyside

      As you say it's a faff and he's fishing lite so doesn't want to carry extra gear nor stress the fish unnecessarily. Unless it's a record or close to a PB what does it matter anyway we all know it's about 2lb/1kg give or take.

      Best "small" species of fish in EU fresh waters, we have them in great numbers here in hungary. I managed to cach a couple around 1kg and let me tell you they are ferocious. The one i caught with a spinning setup was capable of taking a curly tail grub sized for pike. The other come on a light feeder rig, it nearly towed my rod into the river, i had to jump after it. They are strong, fast and very hungry. 100% recomend going for them, you will have a blast.

      I honestly think it's just a bit crap around my area.

    (Birds nests)

    • @BUSTERy
      @BUSTERy Год назад +1

      There's videos on RUclips dedicated to explaining it, it's mostly about controlling the speed of the line leaving the spool, there's normally 2 or 3 gears to stop the spool when you cast. When the spool is too loose or if you cast into the wind is when you achieve the worst bird's-nests, but if you use your thumb to slow down the spool when casting it lets you control the spool until you can dial in the correct break or gear to use for the weight your casting. The lighter weights are harder to cast, but tend to be more fun. Birds nests are normally quite easy to fix taking seconds when you get used to the reel.

      Casters are better for casting accuracy with short rods on cramped waters and of course you can operate the cast with one hand and control the spool line very easily with thumb. They take more practice to master but very handy when there isn't much room to operate.
