That was very interesting. I love watching your channel lovely Fishing Lake x Luv from the UK 🇬🇧

i fished 48 hours on that exact peg this week ( 13 / 14 / 15 june ) peg 11 i think, had an amazing session, 27 tench landed between 4lb & 8lb lost 5 in the weed beds too, i just used 4 kilo of betain green groundbait mixed with 5 kilo of hempseed and 1 kilo of sweetcorn and tuna flavoured pink 8mm wafters banded on the hook, i had a chat with les and he told me you was there the week before. during the day was a waste of time for the tench,as soon as the sun hits the water over the top of the tree line ( around 7am ) it kinda stopped them feeding, but an hour either side of sunrise / sunset was amazing, the whole swim was a mass of feeding bubbles, even had a double take, which was a bit awkward but managed to land them both, was a 4 hour drive for me to get there, but boy was it worth it, i will deffo be going back there very soon. im no expert, but, looked to me that you was fishing the wrong spot, i found a gravel bar about 25 meters out ( nowhere near the weed ) maybe thats why i had 27 fish or maybe it was just my lucky time, who knows.

Whatever it was you capitalised on it...don't worry about whether it was luck or not,you were obviously doing the right thing. I personally have never seen an 8lb Tench but it is something to aim for,though I'm not too worried about size,a 5lb Tench is still a nice fish in my books.

Tench are such an addictive fish to catch. Not been tench fishing for the best part of thirty odd years, I'd guess, but from catching my first tench, I spent every weekend, as a young man, chasing the green gold on balmy summer weekends. Great memories, spent with great childhood friends, camping out by a wild pond. Thanks for bringing it all back, Graeme!

You did OK, I think you are right about the small boilies to get through the small fish.

Hard going Graham but i think you did extremely well, it may of course been the case of the perch clearing out your bait, i guess were never know, look forward to the next one. tight lines.

Hi graeme iv finally met ya at the tackle shop ... ❤❤ love your vids.. yes I'm a match angler.. but content is true and factual❤❤❤❤

Hi mate yes they are river feeders you want open end feeders for ponds 👍🏻

Really enjoy your XL size videos 😅

Dragonfly - looks like a four-spotted libellula. (I looked it up 🤭) And the little blue one at the end was common blue damselfly. It looked so tempting that water too. Still, it makes you appreciate the better days that much more, but those tench were nice.

Really enjoyed watching you did well with all that weed

What a lovely looking spot, nice day for it.

Only need pumping if using pellets on the hook. Fine for in ground bait soaked and boiled they will sink. Some may float up and down baits attract in high pressure. Only my opinion I'm not always right ha ha

Rather catch a tench over a carp anyday, good honest fishing videos. Thank you

hi Graham thanks for the great shows me and the wife love them.. The wife is asking if you have any home made net dip ingredients lol

Good video Graham. As they say it's called Fishing not catching.😁🤔

Thanks for posting this one up Graham, I'm there in three weeks time fishing for the tench for two days and then carp for two days. It's nice to get an insight of what I can expect. I'll make sure to pack the mosquito repellent. The Dragonfly I think was a common Hawker.

It’s never too late my man, if we don’t have an end goal it’s pointless even getting up in the morning in my opinion. 👍

That’s a method feeder. You do wrap your ground bait around it with the hook bait in it the opposite side to the weight so it sits on top

Always honesty the most open when it comes to making kit or breaking kit I am going to the three lochs in Dumfries have you fished it

@TAFishing

11 ай бұрын

No,not been up that way.

22:49 the method feeder has the stone on one side for a specific function. you put your bait on the opposing side of the stone, then when it lands on the lake bed it ‘SHOULD’ land bait side up, Stone side down. Leaving your hookbait presented on top of a mound of bait. I emphasise the word (should) as we all know tackle innovation and fishing is predominantly theoretical.

The method feeder weight where it is shows you which way it will lie on the bottom. You put you bait into the feeder the opposite side to the weight👍

Personally I never find that clear, weedy lakes fish all that well during the day in the summer. On my own lake where I monitor the oxygen levels regularly I find that once the dissolved oxygen starts to drop (when the sun gets low) the fish start to move, I'm fairly sure they're making the most of the daytime oxygen to digest the previous nights food and not really interested in moving much. Always worth putting a fair bit of bait in before it gets dark so you can hold a shoal of fish for a few bites rather than the old one and done, obviously it's harder to accurately top up the swim after dark particularly if you're not using a spod/spomb clipped up to the correct distance. Weedy lakes give the fish plenty of safe natural options to eat rather than your bait so you've got to give them an offer they can't refuse

34 degrees? I wouldn't mind some of that right now. We've been hittiing the freezing point a few nights in a row lately. Roll on November. Edit - while watching this on my laptop I'm sitting by the fire that I have to put out before I go to bed. From the feeling in the air I expect I'll have to knock the frost off the tent in the morning.

That's a dog rose, there are a few other species of other rose that are wild too

Depending on which part of the Keys you intend fishing I would suggest trying Tarpon on floatfished live Pinfish,evenings,ebb tide at channel 2 down from Islamorada ,starting the drift on the Gulf side,up past the concrete blocks,and about 2/300 yards out from them. Drift down to the bridge,then if you don't get a hit,motor back up and try again. Breezy can switch them on,especially using live crab for bait. Out in the ocean side we used to run a 17-foot skiff up to Tenessee light out from Big Pine Key. Don't know if you can still fish around it now,but we had good action throwing tube lures(Pink) and retrieving in jerks for Barracuda there. But I don't think you can anchor there nowadays.Check rules. Drop in to Bud n' Mary's Marina,they are really helpful,especially if you can ask to talk to Richard. They do troll outside Alligator light there for Sailfish when they get what is called "Powder" conditions,but that means windy is best,might not be best for a Bass boat. In the Backcountry if you anchor and put a chum bag over you can often pull sharks into the trail,mostly Lemons. Check out our "Vintage" playlist,we should have a couple of films up (VHS converted ) and you will see what we used to catch...Aaahhh...those were the dream days..I wished you hadn't asked now I won't sleep at night !...Good luck with the trip.

@TA Fishing totally agree,I sometimes wonder when you talk about large bags of tench in the past that you don't catch anymore. Is it simpley the waters are just not about and the few left are exclusive and dead man's shoes to access. 45 years ago, I think it was the reverse, that carp in any numbers were hard to find. Keep up the comedy , like when you were explaining how to cook your cheese spaghetti and that it can only be eaten once it's hot enough to melt your moustache. That did make me giggle 😃
