The frog part was impeccable 👌 😂

The ginger frog whisperer

Those lures are bigger than the fish I normally catch! 🙂

This is fishing with your mate . The best sort of fishing that we can do , and really nice to watch hope to see you two again soon

Seeing you use that tench lure reminded me of a time when I was fishing a quarry regularly, but still too young to really understand what was going on. One day I caught a tench that weighed 5 1/2 lb from the 'east/left' bank. It had scars on its back and belly and I thought it did well to survive to grow big after being almost eaten by a pike when it was younger. A week later on the opposite bank, opposite peg even, I caught the tench again almost at the same time in the evening. But this was when I realised, last week when I caught it, it's wounds were fresh, as now they had changed as it was beginning to heal. I don't do freshwater fishing anymore, but ever since I have ofeten wondered what size pike must have been in there to have attempted to take a 5 1/2lb tench. I know small fish can sometimes take fish too big for them to handle but this fish was wounded with half it's dorsal fin missing and a chunk taken from its belly so it had been grabbed at its widest point.. There were those typical angler tales going around about a certain huge one eyed pike in there that would have been 50 years old (said to have been alive and spotted in the 60's) and 80lb at least if the stories were believed but regardless of any tale I wonder if there was a potential record 45+ in there at the time. It was an odd venue, as I say, I fished there exclusively for tench, most people did. Occasional large roach and rare carp were caught, but the place was filled with mostly Tench, perch, and pike, from jacks that lined the Canadian pondweed around its margins in summer, to monsters that seemed to follow you while you were scrambling along it's slippy clay banks as night fell after staying too long to catch a tench from the surface during heavy rainfall. I remember before they filled most of the shallows in (which they did after two other young kids drowned after falling over the cliffs) , I had packed up one afternoon, with another kid, we walked along the bank, round a bay almost all filled with pondweed and we watched a jack pike swim through a channel close to the bank and into a hole in the weed. "that must be it's home" I said to my friend, and almost as soon as I finished saying that, the jack pike swam out again, but a lot faster than it swam in, and it was followed by something many, many times bigger, so big it created bow waves as it went for the jack pike in about 2 feet of water. We both stood silent and open mouthed for a bit before continuing home with our new found knowledge on specimen pike habitats, and being somewhat startled as we heard a loud 'crack' in the dark, which we figured was my line snapping as some of it had trailed out of my seat box and caught on a bush some way behind us. The place is home to a rare crayfish and sadly it seems the last organized dive there that I have read about saw none of them, which I wonder if it is because they have banned fishing so a lot of their food is now gone. We used to pound in bread and sweetcorn so much it must have been the crayfish's main diet just as much it was the Tench.
