Fishing in the UK's Biggest City!

Спорт

Urban Fishing always looks incredible, but what is it really like? Join me as I journey through London's varying waters, searching for Perch, Pike.. or anything that will take my bait really!
Big thanks to @LondonCatchAndRelease for showing me around, and to @SnaggedBro for letting me pinch some of their footage - they're both the real deal when it comes to city fishing.

    Mate, your ability to make videos that keep me engaged while not seeing you catch anything is beyond impressive. Stay positive, it will happen. Nerdy note, love the heavy mist filter with all the lights blooming at night, your videos are meticulously assembled and executed. Cheers and looking forward to the next one!

    To produce and film while in such a hectic environment must have been a challenge all on It's own but you did it perfectly! The 3D camera shots were pretty cool... As for the fishing; that just looked like so much fun but incredibly difficult. Keep up the great work! Also... A random observation was to hear you're 'gluten free' so I presume Coeliac? My Mum has the same. It was good to see that you still managed to find tasty food!

    Nice vid, next time you'll get them. I'm from Germany and i'm mainly fishing on the River Rhine where i'm used to catch good pike, perch, zander, asp and wels. Street Fishing isn't exactly my style, i've been doing it in the Netherlands a couple of times, but i dont really like the urban feeling and all the pedestrians talking to me all the time. A friend of mine was visiting his brother in London a year ago or so, he took one of his rods with him to try to catch some fish. He luckily caught one fish in three or four days of fishing, but that was a massive perch of 50cm and also his PB. I dont know where exactly he caught it, but it was somewhere in the central city.

    Well... my son lives on the Regents Canal, south of the Islington Tunnel. There's a ton of fry, lots of big eels, pike up to 3' or so (which eat baby waterfowl) and perch on his mooring. I watch them every time I visit. You really need a ghillie to show you the where and the how...

    When the bite is tough, need to use around 2 metres of very light FC leader and don't use unnecessary tackle such as snap swivels and swivels. Just use FG knot or Double Uni for braid to leader, then either a Uni knot or Improved clinch knot to tie on your lure. You can also use a non-slip loop knot if you're feeling fancy.

    Try the Thames at Westminster. I used to fish the steps at County Hall, I think it's the London Aquarium now. It was back in the 80s but it was brilliant. Dace, Eels, Roach, Rainbow Trout, Smelt. Heard tale of an 18lb Carp caught on a prawn. 👍

    I was a security officer for Canary Wharf Management. Unfortunately no fishing is allowed on their property. However across the bridges away form the tall buildings, they don't own the land. I use to fish on south quay and caught my 1st and only fresh water fish haha. It was a small ish pike. As for blanking, I've blanked there about 5 or 6 times. It's deep! People catch all sorts from zander, perch and pike. I live in Southend now so in the summer I try for sea bass. It's not really the best place to fish but it's local. Many blanks which is disappointing, but the beauty of fishing are the days I do catch. Got to be in it to win it!
