Thanks for a really inspirational video.I’ve now tried the size 14 hook and ‘bb’ shot tip with berkley bloodworm and I’m catching a lot more,micro pike ,wasps,roach even jacks up to a couple pound but no chub or bream yet.......still trying.Tight lines Gio
nice video mate, never dropped my lures/jigs to that small before, think 2g jigheads are the smallest I have gone, had a few odd bream when perch fishing, you really have made me think about dropping to even smaller lures like the 0.4 jigheads for some fun over the docks in the warmer months. I have a 0-7g 6,6 rod that would be perfect for this kind of fishing, found this video very useful and good tip about the braid and fluorocarbon too. look forward to seeing more of this type of fishing in your future videos bud
good work mate, iv had roach and rudd hit my lures but iv never had them hook up as iv never used small enough jigheads really, you should try and get some dace! iv only had two on lures so far. iv had a bream on a spoon and once i had a big breamXroach hybrid on a little earthworm lure and long shank size 10 with a few split shot, that was drifting on the river like you would drift real worms. you should try for some ruffe too, id love to get one of them on a lure
Really nice informative video going to take my young son and try this on our local canal in north Wales. This should keep him interested . Thanks for sharing
First solid catch 😏 nice video luv ul fishing and see you enjoy it too. Started this year with baitcaster with 2 / 3 grams jigs 1 to 7 grams rod great to do. Camera the Bag Rod, net and go and never know what the day brings. Not the first time 1 meter Pike liked mine jigs too or on the dropshot, so use on those waters soft knotwire easy no sleeves and works fine we got alot of Pikes here in the Nederlands. My regards great but too sort video lets see more abonnement👍
Good vid Dom :) Funny stuff that little tinky winky lure. I miss that canal and the sight of fish in it. Must visit you again somewhere in summer time ;) All the best!!!
Thank you, thank you! I'm doing a little lure caught species hunt this year with a few of my mates and have just given me a load of ideas, do they have a close season on the canals I haven't done much freshwater fishing for quite a while, cheers mate you have a new sub 🎣👍
Have fun mate, some canal do have a close season so it's best to do some research, but most of the time its just certain stretches they get shut and the rest is fair game.
Watching the video again Dom it occurred to me that when using such micro plastics such as these the water clarity would have to be pretty good for the fish to see these tiny lures, but I guess the fact that you filmed this on the canal then this is not necessarily the case?
not entirely heres another one i filmed but thought it was boring so its gonna get re filmed some time soon, the water was like chocolate yazoo, got a few tips in it like :) ruclips.net/video/mqjf6DicpO4/видео.html
yeah you could, saves messing around with leaders but i like the idea that if i was to hook a bad snag ill be leaving a couple feet of line as opposed to anything from hook to reel in length.
Hi Dom, with the very low resistance from the tiny lures and 1g jig heads i find the line lay on my reel is not too good with the braid bunching up near the lip of the spool, have you experienced this and what would do you think i could do to stop it? thanks bud
@@DomFishingUK Shimano Exage 1000 FD, cant remember the gear ratio but i have been using intermittent retrieve, one or two winds of the handle and upward twitch so on, switch to a 3g jig head and it does not happen
@@DomFishingUK Getting the hang of it now, using that shivering arm technique, 6 small perch and a chublet yesterday on a citrus crazy fish Allure. 1g size 12 jighead
brilliant session yesterday, took my usual perch set up with me but left it in the car could not get away from the micro luring, great fun, 17 perch and 7 Chublets again on the Citrus Allure, in the clear water you can watch the fish go for it
Mate love your style of fishing been following you for a long time. I know and understand that you want to keep spots secret. Miss the old vids When you started. Living in Canada for a long time and a Brit. Always a fisherman till the end. Always learning want to learn more. Dont show ur favs, move around. And while your at it Ill have a split and a cheese and onion pie. Thanx M8.
DomFishingUK 2lb lol, meant to say my first ever dead baited pike and it was a pb dead bsit was 8lb mate, and I guess stoney has the money to get stoned and go fishing 🤔
Really enjoyed watching this! Getting a bit bored with usual perch catches. Didn' t think you could catch silvers on lures!! Was the canal clear the day you made this vid? Just wondering if the silvers would take a lure in muddy canal water? Thanks!
Thanks for your watching, it was fairly clear with about a foot of visibility, but since this video the waters gone brown and I've still had roach on the lures so I'm sure you'll still have a good chance 😁
Sorry mate plaguing you with questions! How does the J Braid cast with the 0.4 jighead and polaris lure? Thinking of getting some even finer braid than the 0.07 j braid you're using - is it worth it for better casting?
With the roach it's more about consistency , they seem to like a really fast twitch slow retrieve and almost worked at the same level in the water, so rather than up and down they want a straight line.
I tried this the other day using the tiny Nikko Kasei pin worms on a split shot rig, no roach or bream just perch, but it's really frustrating how often they nip at it without fully ingesting it, great fun though on a UL set up
@@DomFishingUK It's so sad that 99.9% of the videos on RUclips about fishing with micro soft plastics such as this are in the USA, it's such a fun way to lure fish for multiple species of fish. We need a few more UK based videos on the same topic
@@peteredwards1528 think its because theres a lot of focus to just catch the biggest fish all the time so this fun aspect of fishing gets brushed under the rug, ill be working on another one soon targeting rudd, they are all gonna be waking up soon with this warm weather gonna be fun :D
It does help when when our ee friends actually leave you some fish to fish for! No security on our canals, no bailiffs, nothing. Fishing has gone pathetic in the northwest.
Well, i had my first try at micro lure fishing on the GUC yesterday, couldnt have chosen a worst day, 30mph winds and driving rain!! even in the shelter under a bridge i was buffeted, of the casts that did go where i wanted them to go, being used to casting twitching 3-5g along the bottom, i found the very little resistance from the tiny lures and jig head took a bit of getting used too but not on this session though i abandoned after an hour and a half, think i will wait for better weather next time, cheers!!
Yeah I had the same yesterday mate, anything 20mph and over is a waste of time, the hard part is getting a rythm going after jigging larger lures to just making tiny twitches with the rod.
@@DomFishingUK At last, after 4 blanks i finally landed four small perch this evenings impromptu session, 1.7" cruel leech in motoroil on a size 10 1g jig head did the business, great fun!!
@@DomFishingUK i have tict ice cube 3.5g for perch. Fine for perch and jack pike up to 1.5kg. Thinking buying Crazy fish nano zero carbon 0-1.5g test for using weights up to 1g. Jig heads up to 0.45g perfect for roach and other non predatory fish.

Well done you for showing this BFS fishing like you say never know what you going to catch next. But all the same great fun.
Excellent video, must get hold of some of those tiny jigheads! I've had Roach and Rudd but Bream have evaded me so far! Tight lines 👍🎣
It'll happen they chase lures down like pike just with really bad accuracy 😂

yeah you could, saves messing around with leaders but i like the idea that if i was to hook a bad snag ill be leaving a couple feet of line as opposed to anything from hook to reel in length.

Hi. What were the lures you were using please.
Cheers John
Serious question Dom, would one of these ultralight lure rods be suitable tip and action wise for little wagglers on the canal?
Yeah it should be fine mine this one would probably bit a little soft but anything 3-10g cast with a fast action would be ideal for it.
Nice video Dom, after watching this really fancy give it a go. What braid do you use?
5lb daiwa J-braid, get yourself out its great fun!
Thanks Dom, ordered some small soft plastic lures to give it go 😃
Nice stick bait at the start, was it made by yew zuri?

ill see what i can do , little bit too windy at the minute though :D
Just got my order from amg hope to go tomorrow morning
nice video pal 👌🐟🐟
I can never seem to catch roach on insect lures do you have to work it slow or something because I’ve had bream on them
With the roach it's more about consistency , they seem to like a really fast twitch slow retrieve and almost worked at the same level in the water, so rather than up and down they want a straight line.

what rod and reel is that mate
Use even smaller lures. 1 cm max. Find the smallest twisters you can and just use the tail. Put on a splitshot rig. Destroys the rudd and roach
nice vid dom👍🎣
hello what rod and reel are u using i cant find them
savage gear parabellum cc
What is the little black creature lure as can’t find on AGM Website.

It's called an "allure"
