I Caught An Urban LEGEND, Biggest PIKE in The Canal!

Published 2023-12-17
This session I decided to hit the canal with the dead baits. This is mostly due to the fact that I have a fractured elbow and lure fishing was off the cards. I expected a few pike, but i never expected to catch the legend I've heard stories bout! In the urban canal!

  • Well done Chris for catching a beauty fish! And also helping out the other one. Hopefully it’s able to live longer nowπŸ™πŸ½
  • Mate I love the determination from you but it wouldn’t hurt to have a break whilst you recover and maybe upload old vids or just montages I’m sure people would understand.

    What a great capture. Well done. She was a catch of a lifetime on some canals πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ ahh, but I congratulated you too soon. That poor last pike. What a shame for it. I'm just glad that you were there to help it. Well done to you for that.

    Pike have always been treated abominably. In match fished waters they were routinely thrown up the bank to die. Gorge baiting was common. They are still killed in trout waters. Hopefully you'll do your bit to educate anglers what magnificent creatures pike are.

    I was wincing every time you jarred your elbow that's going above and beyond for your sport, loving the use of double hooks and what a fabulous canal pike. Hope your arm gets better soon take it easy.

    Congrats on the beast croc! Hope your elbow gets better soon. That last fish was in a poor state and well done on educating maybe new anglers to be careful with their catch. I remember not too long after i started fishing i lost my disgorger and though 'meh, i wont need it' sods law i caught a chub deep hooked of about 2lb. I tried forcing various things down its throat to try to unhook it even though i couldnt see the hook and instead of just cutting the line, i pulled it hard and pulled its stomach and its teeth out all at the same time with blood pissing out of everywhere. It made me feel so ashamed and to this day (29 years later) i cringe about how i treated that fish because I didnt know what i was doing and didnt have the right equipment. Now i always have multiple spare disgorgers of different sizes, wire cutters, scissors, forceps and if for some reason i've lost one, i dont go fishing. We owe it to our catch to treat them as well as we can.
