This Wild Canal Only Has BIG FISH!

Published 2024-04-08
It's that time of year when the pike are spawning and we start to look towards bait fishing for other species. This time I was looking for my first tench of the year! It's usually too cold this time of year for them, but with a bout of mild weather my hopes were up, rods set and fingers crossed that we'd get some big fish on the bank!

    As an American I love watching your videos to see all the interesting species you fish. Only fish we seem to have in common are perch and pike. But our perch generally don't get anywhere as big as the ones you get! Your vids are so fun and relaxing to enjoy.

    Perch belly's are full of spawn at this time of year. They lay nets of eggs over structure underwater. Amazing to see.

    Chris, I think you should go back and show Tom and Sean how easy it is to fish a canal. I could be wrong, but Tom needs some tuition, as he still hasn't caught from his garden peg. great vid.

    The way the float went for the perch was a float angler's dream.

    Feels strange watching you float fish!

  • @cliffdixon6422
    Absolutely love Tench, next to Barbel they are my favourite species. Great to see it's not just me these days fishing 'old school' with the float. Lily pads, bubbles, those powerful runs - What's not to like?

    All beautifully filmed capturing the atmosphere of the early morning bye the river/canal . The mist on the water and the wildlife that you can encounter and some really nice fish. Loved it.

    I think Ginger is the grandson of the great Rex Hunt
  • @towyangling
    I do hope that was filmed on the snagbro 's pros only canal stretch!?
  • @SteeeveO
    Those Yorkshire canals are head & shoulders above the one near me in Northants. Seldom see fish of this size reported.
  • @deedontworry
    Canal fishing always throws surprises! πŸ”₯ Great fishing Chris! 🎣
  • I'm normally a predator fisherman,but I have to say this vid was stunning, cinematography spot on,loved it πŸ‘Œ
  • The tench are well on the feed in ireland already due to such a mild winter. Usually we have to wait till late May before we start bagging up. Different story trying to catch a tench in cold water. Never doubt your ability .
