- Well it's time for another underwater fishing session. This time we're on the canal and aiming to get some takes in front of the camera. The target species is tench, but on the canal you just never know what's going to happen! It was only after removing my camera from the water that I realized I'd captured some never seen before fish behavior.

Unbelievable-fascinating- eat your hearts out BBC Naturewatch. I've fished all my life and never seen such footage - give this guy a TV series and show people what REALLY happens in the waters of the UK ! Congratulations.
Definitely
@@patcullen9304 I hope spring watch do some underwater camera work, its an area they seem to miss.
Agree. I’d 100% watch it. 👍👍👍
Absolutely!!! This guy is so passionate and dedicated, fair play to him!!!
Been saying this for a couple of years now there’s nothing on tv like this he’s a fishing genius gentleman 🎣🐟👍🏻
Astonishing and incredible. You are the most innovative and methodical angler on the internet Chris. A joy to watch.
"Tench can't resist a worm"....tench proceeds to resist the worm 😂
LITERALLY 🤣
That Tench was gorgeous, almost gold on its belly. Mate, you've got it nailed on, I could watch that footage over & over. Good man Chris, good man.
This will teach snagged bro how to catch in the garden peg 😂
😂
They need professional help before they’re able to catch
Such a good show 😂👌
No one can help them catch there bud 😂
Won't catch him any Barbel though 😊
As you pointed out, Tench are cautious, picky fish and not always easy to catch , therefore any and all Tench caught are a treasure to behold.
Thanks for the effort you put in to the video.👍🏴
I would have to disagree. I just can't understand why he uses ridiculous 3lb line and loses so many fish. Even 70lb braid would not put off those tench. I'd be more inclined to pre-bait in much larger amounts to induce the larger specimens to move in and feed very confidently.
A tench is not welcome when Iv spent a lot of time critically balancing my bait sharping my hook. Casting to my area getting it spot on first cast then a slimy tench picks it up just before it gets dark making it even harder to replicate my original cast
@@imdaprophet diddums i guess
@@leem25 it is for the tench as it gets launched in to the bushes
@@imdaprophet then you're a full on bell end who shouldn't be allowed near a rod and reel.
Tons of Roaches around and the Pikes is diggin on a worm?!? 😳
The Tench is such a beautiful, picky and very cautious fish ❤️
Great video! 👍🏼
Loving the latin ..i read the observer book of fish as a child and always tried to remember the latin words of different species .
Pike are lazy they only go for sick fish that don't move much. They have a very quick short burst of speed but lack stamina.
Probably isnt in hunting mode
Pike can ignore fish for days
They dont just take every fish that comes near them
@keithleivers4061 Barbus Barbus is my favourite.
@@matthewx360Sticklebackus Sticklebackus is mine.
"Constellation prize"🤩🤩🤩🤩
Its coz Chris is a star !
That’s cos Chris is a star!
It's because Chris is a star
Is it because Chris is a star?
I said what i said 😂
These are some of the best vids on TH-cam about fishing, keep 'em coming Captain!
Chris i be honest watching your channel is by far the best in my opinion for Coarse fishing on youtube ! Well done mate
Who else just loves fishing an watching fish😂
This was truly a gem to watch.
Very interesting to see their behaviour under water.
Tench are such underrated fish, because for their size they put on a hell of a fight.
More of this please, we appreciate your dedication!
Tench really are one of the most beautiful coarse fish in Britain. Well done on a gorgeous fish. It's incredible how visible the line is in the water. PS It's consolation, not constellation prize! 😉
Its coz chris is a star
@@keithleivers4061I was thinking the same! He's out of the world!
Totally agree, a really beautiful fish!!!
The pike behaviour was fascinating. It explains why so many of the jacks I have on small creature baits are hooked on the very point of their “nose”. Thanks Chris.
Some fantastic looking tench, great footage. The Pike swooping in absolutely defines why I like them so much.
100% agree with one of the other comments, you deserve your own tv program. A million times better than any fishing tv program I’ve ever watched over past 30 years. If a tv channel took a chance on you they would make a fortune. Lee from obsession with angling is amazing too. Would be a dream to have a days fishing with either of you
Bloody love seeing people so passionate about something. It’s contagious!
From a very young angler years ago I was always told by other fisherman that tench are one of the hardest fish to catch. Even them saying that carp are easier than tench to tempt to the hook. I love the green machines. Even if I pick one up on a carp rig at range there welcome 😊
Amazing underwater filming, excellent. Fascinating to see how many fish are drawn in to the swim by the groundbait.
What an amazing bit of educational footage. Absolutely love it. Thank you so much.
Excellent work Chris. These underwater films are fascinating 👍🏼
Sehr schöne und schlanke Rotaugen am Anfang!
Very beautyful and slim rudds at the begin!
I use Cherry's for Tench. No problem with other fish taking the bait. But you need to feed the fish for some days in advance. Because of the seeds inside and the stalk on the Cherry, the Tench will not react to the hook or line. I also caught a 20 lbs Pike during night fishing Tench, with a single corn on number 12 hook and 0.12 mm line in 50 cm deep water. That was a 30 minute fight. It was after spawning so even though the Pike was 130 cm long it didn't weigh that much. I'm fishing from a rubber boat, in placed other anglers can't fish. It so much better because you don't lose much fish compared to fishing from the shore. I'm not sure if the Pike just inhaled the corn or actively swallowed it. The float just went under a couple of centimeters and stayed submerged. It was in a shallow bay of the Baltic sea. The mouth of the bay is full of seaweed that the fish has to migrate through. A normal session usually yields about 10 Tench and the occasional large Crucian and large Rudd. But they don't take Cherrys though. The longer you pre feed the more Crucian you will catch. If you rake the swim in the evening and create really big cloud of dirty water it improves the fishing. It even works well to create new open water right in the middle of a big field of seaweed. About 5x5 meters and where the water is 70 to 100 cm deep. Tench don't like to shallow water, but Crucian, Rudd and Pike feeds in 30 cms at night. Carp and big Carassius Auratus, you can't fish in the weeds, they fight to hard and run in straight lines. Tench fight hard too, but you can control where it goes with how you put pressure on it. Up to 3 kgs you can use a 6 meter rod without a reel. Bigger ones you will need a reel. My biggest Auratus weighed 3 kgs and fought like a Carp. Crucian on the other hand don't fight at all!
I aint reading all of that.
Stunning video. Love the way you systematically worked through the issues and ended up with a couple of good tench. Pike footage was also epic. Brilliant stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Got to say, since we sadly lost the legend mr John Wilson, I haven’t come across anyone who could compare anywhere near him. until now. Your enthusiasm and presentation is incredible and this is what got me in to fishing over 40 years ago. Well done sir!! I’m pretty sure that One day you will have your own Tv show. Totally loving your content!! Thank you 🙏😬😬🙏👌✨✨
Brilliant insight to our quarry, interesting to see pike feeding in a way we never thought and tench being tench
Wonderful footage: I love tench. They are so beautiful and very shy. I really do not like carps. Even in my little pond the golden tench I have for years and feed regularly are hard to watch as they escape in under the vegetation when something is scaring them. I never ate a tench despite the fact that I tried to cook nearly every species of fish I caught at least once to try how they taste.
I was amazed more than once that quite big pikes are sometimes eating tiny worms. A friend caught a big one on a hook size 12 with a tiny worm on it: He was actually trying to catch bait. The hooked pike raced across the big pond straight into the net! The net got completely destroyed but we caught the fish.
This season tenches get ready to have their mating dances in flooded grass. They are really fat now. During their mating after sunset you can sometimes touch them with bare hands. That is the moment they loose all their shyness. It is wonderful to watch. They got so rare where I live. It is a pity.
When I was younger we often went to rescue tenches and many other kind of fish that got trapped in side pools after they were drying out in autumn and early winter. Sometimes I hammered tenches out of the ice. There was no water left in the ponds, but when you massaged them they got back alive.
Absolutely beautiful, beautiful piece of film making. You have totally revolutionised fishing videos....amazing brother!!!!
Amazing footage Chris thanks so much for persevering they are such beautiful fish to catch. Another awesome video for the master 👍🏻
Tench are simply put the best looking fish there is. and that pesky pike had me in bits haha
Best footage yet! It's great when a plan comes together. I was nearly as excited as you when I watched that tench go in the net.
A real insight into the behaviour of tench and how this understanding can contribute to an improved catch rate. A quality video that certainly takes a fishing video to another level. So bored watching videos which focus on rigs, bait and hook a duck commercials!!! A+
I just wanted to say a big thank you for your amazing video of catching that beautiful tench in the canal! Your perseverance and the stunning underwater footage made it such an enjoyable watch. Keep up the great work!
Best regards, William
Amazing how clear that water is. Even in Winter my local canal is about as clear as soup.
Said it before and i'll say it again. You create the best content of any fisherman i watch. love your video's.
It always makes me laugh when you do those shots of you walking away from the camera and I know as soon as the clip ends you have to turn around, walk back and pick it up again hahaha
Same with the bike riding shots. Proper pain in the as* 😂
Congratulations on your new addition , glad carp managed to hang in there
I liked the beauty of the underwater aquascape. The truly haunting glimpse into another world that one so rarely sees. Cool collected and tranquil.
And I like your ginger beard too
You realise that loosing that first Tench was Karma for making us all see your back crack 😅 .
Great underwater footage, and yes it all takes hard work to put it altogether.
Loved the way the Pike picked up worms.
Love this video for all kinds of reasons, but that pike in slow motion was amazing.
Incredible fish! Lovely advice and cant wait to try and catch some tench on the canal near me
Jacks can be a nightmare when I target big Perch in the winter months on the River Severn, with lobworms. On one session last winter, I caught the same pike 3 times on a lobworm!
From a match fishermen, that was pretty impressive. When you had tight line to the float the tench were spooked, laying on a couple of foot was incredible. laying on for me is a couple of inches so ill try this. Brilliant.
Yep thats what your partner said 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😜
Absolutely amazing footage from an incredible angler. Well done and YES we really appreciate and enjoy all your skill and perseverance. 👍👍
The footage of that small pike was like you said yourself, incredible
So cool! Tenches are the most beautiful! Amazing footage! All the best from Austria!
Brilliant footage thanks Chris , fascinating as I only fish canals
Best fishing content on YT...best fishing content ever! Thanks
Your films are brilliant thanks, superb footage, editing and presenting. Great work.
Great viewing Chris amazing how the fish feed around your bait
Just fantastic to see what you have done to understand the habbits under water, thanks!
Brilliant film. So informative. As good as any wildlife doc on TV.
very nicely filmed and fished. We can learn and benefit from this a lot. well done . gr fom belgie
well done chris 👏 love that baby pike shot 😍
The real mvp
Brilliant mate. I loved every minute of that.👍👍
Unbelievable dedication to 'getting the shot'!!
Absolutely brilliant, you collected the data and used it to catch a fish. This is my kind of fishing!!
This is brilliant footage….fascinating. Thanks
Appreciate your vid and thanks from Korea. I was intrigued to see that you also use a float to fish a carp; we rig it such that once carp takes the bait, the float slowly rises above the water. At night time, we attach a small light at the tip of the float and when the light rises majestically above the water, 30cm to 1 meter plus depending on the length of the float, the sight is breathtaking. You than have a decision to make whether the catch the carp or enjoy the risen float as long as possible until the fish spits out the hook.
The purpose of the rig is not to catch as many carp as possible, but to enjoy the float rise with a satisfaction that you have rigged the float with perfection.
The trick is to use as thin line as possible, a light hook, small light baits, perfect balance between the sink and the float and patience!
There's plenty of fish in that canal, stunning video as always 👌👍
Inspiring footage. Time to explore my river!
Great footage Chris - thanks for sharing. Interesting to see the pike behaviour and great to see you bank a decent tench 👊 I know how much work goes into these - thanks mate 👊
Really appreciate your underwater footage videos, helps a lot to understand how the fish feeds
Having just started Tench fishing, after decades of carping, I'm amazed at how difficult they are to catch. I've spent hour after hour watching the fizzing around my float and striking into nothing when it lifts. Very interesting to see the underwater behaviour 🤔
Really amazin shot of that small pike charging the school of fish. Well done!!
This looked like a really beautiful place to fish.
I liked this video, there was some really nice footage, in relatively clear water. Nice to see the different fish, especially the pike and tench...
😎👍🏻
Brilliant work, thank you for spending the time to show us how to get out there and just paint. Your work is just brilliant 👏
This is so great to watch. I have two massive fish tanks and always wished i could see into the river......well done, more please.
A constellation prize? I guess a bigger fish just wasn’t in the stars! Lol!
Brilliant video Chris. Your time and effort paid off for some amazing footage. Always top drawer. 👏👏👏
Taking it to another level !
I love tench, beautiful fish. I tend to make up two tubs of ground bait, one loose to throw in and one a stodgy paste so I can mould it around the hook. In fact that's pretty much the only way I fish for everything other than predators. Just vary the size of the paste ball depending what I'm going for. Been doing it that way for 20 years, never fails.
After seeing Korda's underwater videos I got really hooked on underwater videos to better understand the behaviour of different species and ages of fish. Amazing insight as an amateur angler. Now I can help my beginner buddy catch some picky-eaters fish at our lake since he's been struggling on the float. I will definitely tell him to mount his lead a bit further up and tie a push-stop/hair rig for corn. I hope he can finally land some more fish consistently aside from the odd prussian carp orgy days we sometimes get.
Fantastic video, love the underwater camera footage 👍 🎣
Superb filming and I learnt so much. thanks.
Amazing how when a pike is obviously on the feed the roach don't seem bothered. Is it they know it only wants the worms, or because there are so many of them that the odds of being attacked are relevantly low? Brilliant footage as usual.
Well done. I cannot be critical about this but what you learnt in a month took me over twenty yrs🤣🤣
17:40 Decent tench. Thanks for struggeling. Nice footage.
Now that was brilliant, thankyou! Keep em coming mate, never seen canal videos like this before.
Mate your videos are incredible, being able to see and understand a bit more what’s going on under the water is amazing. It will help me to be more patient and know things are happening when I get nibbles but no takes and such.
Keep fishing mate. 🎣
Great video 😊 I setup a native fish mini pond with bluegill and sunfish
Very good watch,can learn alot from these vids. Me and the kids enjoyed from start to finish.
Maybe again with roach or perch👌
Excellent video. Thanks for posting!
Excellent video, as per normal. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for your time and effort in making these videos. We do really appreciate it 👏👏👏
Superb video Chris wicked footage 👍🏼 flippin Boater’s 😅
Great video will definitely influence my tactics for tench this summer
Great videos. I can feel the tenchion!
Great video Chris! Love seeing the footage I find it fascinating. I’m actually going after Tench myself in the morning so thank you and wish me luck 😀🎣 ….Smithy
Another great video Chris! I get so nostalgic watching your stuff having moved out of the UK. It keeps me sane though!
Excellent work!!! Great footage, really fascinating to see this behavior from the Pike and Tench!!
I found this video very entertaining and I felt your excitement when you finally netted that fish at the end. I’m from Wisconsin, USA and am not used to this type of fishing but I throughly enjoyed the underwater footage. Good on ya mate. Tight lines!
Always Succeeds! Full respect Chriss. Thank you
In Germany we call the Fish " Schleie "
Great video, thanks
Great video man! It must have been at least 30 years since i've fished like this. So many good memories. It is how my fishing adventure started. Tench was my favorite fish to catch.
Nice video, much more realistic than an adhd guy wiggeling a caught fish infront of the camera every 30 sec
Fascinating video, better than an aquarium .
Amazing video. Some amazing underwater shots
This guy deserves to be mainstream.
