I recommend you take a pair of pruning shears/ secateurs when you hit the banks like that. Easy to holster on your belt or pocket, and indispensable to drop those pesky limbs out of your way. Great video!
I grew up kind of poor. I would bring a pruning saw with me in the winter. When the leaves were off, if I saw a lure someone hung and lost, and if I could reach the branch, I would cut the branch and get a free lure!
@@kennethjackson7574 Me too brother. My uncle and I used to go out as soon as the leaves fell and go lure picking, from the bank or from a canoe. I usually carry a machete with me nowadays, but I imagine pruners would be better for him and the spectators always on those canals
Brilliant video love small river fishing for chub on a light setup great fun lovely Perch I do a lot of this style fishing fishing in its simple form can not beat it 😀🐟🐟👌👌
Fanatic video as always Chris. I absolutely love winter chub fishing and what I brace off chub. Please keep the uploads coming. Loving all your vids. Fingers crossed you hit that hundred thousand subscribers soon. Because you deserve so many more
Quick tip for you buddy. Stalking g through dense undergrowth, turn your rod through 180°, that way the tip trails behind you, no risk of a snapped tip ring! Tight lines Rich
I use a 16's-18's barbed hook just below a 8's-10's hook.I catch the minnows,then leave the minnow on. It works like a hair rig.The chub/trout/perch take the live minnow and the larger hook.Trotting under a float seems to work best.
I used to fish a tiny stream with a rolling ball and nothing else but worms flowing in the stream and got a lot of chub and a decent Pike great way of fishing
Excellent session Chris. I really enjoy watching you do this kind of small , wild river fishing. It reminds me of some of the stuff I do round here. The fish aren't super big but the sport is so much fun. And those Chub were in beautiful winter condition. It made me wonder if they had ever been hooked before. Keep up the great work mate. Back to the canals and lakes soon.☺🎣
Thanks Chris. Yea im kinda looking forward to the closed season almost 😅. Got some trout fishing planned and some new areas to try for a canal carp, so i shouldn't be too wounded about the end of season
Great sport... lovely Chub...if there is a 2 lb perch...there may well be a 4 lb +chub in there...here is the chub challenge!...take a fish of about 2 lb..gently push your index finger down its throat till you feel those phalangeal teeth... fascinating adaptation for thease species.....wiggle your finger down there for about 7 seconds....n see what might happen....
So I did give you an idea then?! Nice video I used to fish a stream like that very few chub though. Trout, dace and a few roach to over a pound that were always a highlight if you got one.
I google it and if i find out nothing then I'll go check out some spots. If there's no signs up to say otherwise then i tend to fish them and make sure there's some money in my wallet just in case its a day ticket or something. 🤘
@@greenswordgaming39 best baits imo the blood attracts them bigger fish but say that I've had lots of jack's and mid doubles on lamprey just think it's luck sometimes being there at the right time and putting it on its nose
Ive just passed all my gear onto a friend of mine who aids juniors get into fishing. Im an armchair fisherman these days. Too old for the cold and wet nights and days. At least I know my gear has gone to a good home
I want to go fishing with you.. I'll trade a free place to stay, grub and fishing here in NH USA for Smallmouth bass for anything you do mate. I'm an ex pat and miss coarse fishing..
don't cut anything use small rod or ! people see that its getting fished well dont matter coz you put on TH-cam and people will know the river thats why I just fish
@@IanG1969 I know what the words mean…. I guarantee it’s not true, just the thing over TH-cam is to say it’s forgotten or rare or hidden. It’s England nothing is hidden or forgotten 😂

Quick tip for you buddy.

Top fishing Chris!! 🎣👌👌
Love that style of fishing it was how I started on small rivers.
Hi, nice Perch of 2lb plus good to see some fishing action.
Great stuff , Dude . The Chub you caught look similar to Fallfish here in America . Perch were outstanding .
Finally not some pike fishing! Keep it on!
Superb.
Great video. Love the help with the tech info. Returned to fishing only recently. Thanks Chris.

Can't get enough of this channel, keep it up!
Great video Chris, love those roving sessions.
That looks like some real fun. Great content 👌
Pull your trousers up mate 😂😂love your vids tho can’t wait for the next upload
Love your channel Chris, keep them videos coming buddy 💙
Top vid again Chris mate hard work getting to the fish but when you did it was worth it cracking fish in the net 🎣👊👏👏👌👍
I used to fish a tiny stream with a rolling ball and nothing else but worms flowing in the stream and got a lot of chub and a decent Pike great way of fishing
Perch is a mum to be I’d think 🌞
Really enjoying your videos, will be tryin some of your techniques out on my local river. Keep the videos coming tightlines
You need to bring per of Garden shears cut some three branches out of your way and you can make few nice swims for next time

You can’t beat April perch fishing on rivers

@@The_ginger_fisherman just fish anyway it doesn’t matter if it’s closed season
Nice vid mate
I call you go on the stalk, on the hunt for them.
Those chub bear a loose resemblance to Tarpon
Привет рыжий 😀🤝🇷🇺

that perch looks like it's ready to spawn
That certainly was a cracking video! 😅
Love this style of fishing, into the unknown. Do you find out who has fishing rights on these little streams, or just turn up?👌🏻🎣
I google it and if i find out nothing then I'll go check out some spots. If there's no signs up to say otherwise then i tend to fish them and make sure there's some money in my wallet just in case its a day ticket or something. 🤘
@@The_ginger_fisherman Cheerz for the reply and info. Keep on making your great videos, they bring so much pleasure to so many people.👍🏻🎣
That perch was full of eggs, it probably is fine but I would've have put it back immediately not to stress a breeding fish too much.
Great vid ginger what area of england are you fishing you sound a bit local
Whats your suggestions of how to get bigger pike since i catch a lot but smaller ones
big deads
Me 2 11b is my record still it was a amazing day
@UCJc7YSdpSEhBPZSYkJGGHWA my best was on a lamprey
@@greenswordgaming39 best baits imo the blood attracts them bigger fish but say that I've had lots of jack's and mid doubles on lamprey just think it's luck sometimes being there at the right time and putting it on its nose
Bigger baits will probably sort out some better fish buddy
4:48 what was it?
Hi Chris what landing net is that you have ?
Ive just passed all my gear onto a friend of mine who aids juniors get into fishing. Im an armchair fisherman these days. Too old for the cold and wet nights and days. At least I know my gear has gone to a good home
Shame we don't have anything like this in North Wales :( everything is just heavily stocked and if you can find a chub your probably just dreaming 🤣
I have had some big chub out of the upper Severn I think it's called the river vynnee, not far from north wales it's near oswestry
How do you find these places?
I want to go fishing with you.. I'll trade a free place to stay, grub and fishing here in NH USA for Smallmouth bass for anything you do mate. I'm an ex pat and miss coarse fishing..
Hi
Hows Sam doing ?
Just subscribe buddy
Anyone point me In The direction of that hoodie
don't cut anything use small rod or ! people see that its getting fished well dont matter coz you put on TH-cam and people will know the river thats why I just fish
Why is everything ‘hidden’ or ‘forgotten’ you don’t need to sex your stuff up with hooky titles, they’re already very good.
It's because its hidden or forgotten. Hidden because of the undergrowth, forgotten as no one fishes there
@@IanG1969 I know what the words mean…. I guarantee it’s not true, just the thing over TH-cam is to say it’s forgotten or rare or hidden. It’s England nothing is hidden or forgotten 😂
How about , angler visits averagely, inaccessible river a few people fish, to catch run of the mill species
@@IanG1969 😂 love it, so catchy 😂
