I finally caught a small pike with my bfs rod and reel. I bought a Dark Wolf Ultra. You wouldn't believe how many casts it took me, I'm chuffed to bits. It's all down to you 😊

Great video Chris. Hope you and your family are ok after the bad floods. Stay safe. Best wishes.

Beautiful slow mo on that pike jumping excellent work

Great looking fish. Really like your vids. Especially the huge 24 in brown from that urban trench. Great stuff. Looking forward to more of those😊

Great video love the pike attacks! Welldone Chris!

Cracking video once again big man, love the pike fishing vids👍

Chris, your soundtrack doesn't get enough props. Its the gravy in on the mash

lovely mate

Lovely pike Chris. And the lure works brilliantly 👍

Awesome Chris brilliant filming

Those fish are absolutely smashing those lures. Great session.

River pike are strong! 🔥

Thanxx for posting I love your vids Greetz from Holland 🇱🇺

Another great video 👍🏻

Superbly accurate casting!

Been looking at the Beast paddletail today and now will definitely add it to the box. Great video

Aaand i lost it on the first cast (literally)

That first one, nice take. I fished a creek the same size as a kid that went through my uncles farm. I'm having flashbacks of throwing a 50ct spoon and my heart pounding.

Great pikes, and you didn’t even forget your net 😉

Another brilliant video again chris, just another idea which you probably arent into, but would be great seeing you tackle some gravel pits, say unknown ones or not fished apart from your forgotten ponds that is:) much appreciated as always...Also chris be good to see you trying the oldskool method sink & draw with sprats one time to see if you can do aswell:)

Great vid 👍

Another awesome video Chris!! Love the videos mate!! …. Smithy

Nice Fish 🎉🎣 🐟

Well done Chris nice little video mate, Thank you

What a jump from dat pike. Pike Fishing from the bank is great to Watch. Because dat is What I do to. The pikes are realy hitting the lures this time of year. From Holland so sorry for the bad english.

I really enjoy ur videos 🙏❤️❤️

REALLY impressed with the accuracy of the casting into some tricky areas. Maybe well edited?? LOL Great video as always

Another top video bud. You must have the best cast and eye for a fish on the whole of KZread. 🔥🔥

Great Fishing! 🎉 😃

Hope You took some Dead Baits with You loaded with Oils (They seen to like the Strawberry) and throw them Into the swim You had the Last Big one from, To get the Big Girl active. She won't chase a Lure at this time of Year. Keep them going In every time You go there. Then In The Freeze, go get Her on the bank. I only had a 24lber today, and a ton of little ones to Ten Pound. Keep 'Em Coming.

Love pike fishing. That’s all I target in the winter her in southern Canada. Such an underrated fish and good eating if you know what you are doing. I have some pretty insane pike fishing around where I live. If I I drive less then an an hour West North or East I have a chance at a master pike every time. I’m on 5 winters in a row with a pike over 17Ibs

Pike are a coarse fish traditional in the UK. They are rarely eaten these days.

Are you crushing your barbs these days? Been thinking of doing it recently just for quick unhooking

The river I fish on is super fast flowing at the moment with very little slack but big double figure pikes do you have any tips for fishing areas like this?

How long do you stick with one lure, not catching, before you switch to something different?

@The_ginger_fisherman

9 ай бұрын

It really depends on the conditions. Sometimes I know what I'm using is the right choice so I just stick with it and other times I might change up every half an hour. Usually it depends on the venue conditions though. For example in shallow weedy areas i might prefer a shallow jerkbait and in deeper areas I'll generally go for a heavier shad etc

A quick question for you,I might have got it wrong but you appear to be using fluorocarbon traces 🤔 personally I would never use fluorocarbon traces for pike,alway use at least 55lb wire trace,I was just wondering why you use fluro and do you get many bite offs ? Cheers and all the best

What fresh water fish do y’all like to catch for dinner?

Main mission: do not lose net - done!

What are the benefits of using a multiplier reel with lures. I've fished for 30 years and never used one or ever felt like I needed to change what I'm using. I have never even looked into it, so I'm curious.

@stevenlarratt3638

When casting from the side angle (not overhead) you can look at the arch angle and control the distance with minimal thumb pressure to get the perfect cast to the snags and near cover, its a bit harder with a fixed spool... you always need thumb pressure towards the landing spot to avoid the birds nest problem though...

Make sure you have all the right tools for proper unhooking. Also watch some unhooking tutorials online. If you're dead baiting or live baiting for pike make sure to strike early or only use a single treble rig to make unhooking easier.

@paulstares48

9 ай бұрын

@alfredshearing6793 it depends on a couple of things like water temperature and the condition of the fish. ( a female could be full of eggs near spawning time.) The fish should lay on its side when it's ready to be netted. I only fish deadbait from October to march as the pike are very aggressive and swallow the bait very quickly and will get deep hooked In summer time and this increases the chances of serious injury or death. Although they look intimidating pike are actually very fragile and need to be handle with care.

Which river is this?
