I Can't Believe This Stupid Bait Caught Soo Many Big Fish!! In The Flood

I can't believe this stupid bait caught soo many big fish in the flooded conditions. I hit the bank this session with my hopes pretty low as we'd just had a cold front come in the night before. With that in mind I decided to "go for broke" and use a bait I'd never used before and a style of rigging called the "Stupid Tube" In the hopes of getting one or two bites and putting maybe one or two good fish on the bank. The sessions couldn't of gone any better. Enjoy!

    Little story about the Thumbnail for this video. I did actually catch a pike from inside that pipe during the video, but when it came to transferring the files that clip as well as about 5 others corrupted and I lost the footage. After I caught the pike I decided this would be the thumbnail and was the only thumbnail I took this session. So even though the footage wasn't in the video we're stuck with this thumbnail. Tantalizing story 😂. So how'd you like the video?

    Have you consider laminating a 50cm marking on to your net handle? Means you would always be able to measure the fish if you wanted to and seeing you use the net to land decent sized perch, it would always be immediately to hand. Thanks for the stream of awesome videos. Takes me back to my childhood fishing these little streams, cuts and rivers.

    Just a bit of advice and cool way to fish all year round, In the rapid like area where you caught the perch at 7:30 In the video, I grab a small 5 or 6cm micro crankbait, I mainly use the rapala bx minnow or smaller, flick it out at the top of the rapids and let it flow down and let the fast water make the action for you, just don’t let the lure got too far and you’ll catch chub, perch and pike

    Favourite moment 4:02 with your excitement at the first chub and landing it. For an angler that catches a load of really impressive fish Chris I really enjoy how you retain that “big kid” feeling when hooking and landing fish. I’m guessing these “stupid” soft baits also have an aroma/taste? I’ve used some similar for perch here in the Netherlands and they have a salty crayfish scent - meant to be great for perch but I’m a little bit behind your catch rate I must admit! Tight lines

    The only stupid thing in this video Chris is you trying to ride your bike over the deeper than you thought frozen puddle.😆 I'd say that stupid bait worked sublimely for you. In cold weather like that it's often quite surprising how Chub respond to an artificial bait. And they were all magnificent silvered winter fish too. That slack where you caught the smaller Perch always seems to be a banker peg for you. The Perch at the end though was absolutely magnificent. What incredible colours in the winter sunlight and what a beast. You should think about taking your scales and tape again because you have definitely caught bigger specimens earlier in the season. What a fantastic video mate. Red letter day!😀🎣
