Great video Jim just luv watching your videos so nice to watch natural fishing without plugging diffrent baits and componys.Keep them coming mate .MY FAVOURITES. fished the river mayenne this year for 2 weeks water so low and alot of already about .Had 2 carp biggest 7lb🙈😭.
Many thanks Stephen..very kind words 👏🏻🎣 The heatwave in France has been unrelenting this year..the worst i've ever known whilst being here..most of the rivers have been suffering. Good man for catching despite the size!!💪🏻
Fantastic stuff. Dead jealous. I’ve been fishing a stretch of river in the north of England nobody else fishes for the 1st time this year. I have been walking the stretch for years, seeing nothing, and then early spring I saw a carp. So I decided to give it a go using similar tactics. Catching loads of pristine chub, and then bang, a lean fighting machine carp. I honestly don’t think any of those fish had ever been caught before. Nowhere near as big as your fish, but it’s the reward of catching from an unknown location. Proper exciting!
Excellent vid Jim man after my own hart love to fish like this round kent and sussex that fish may never have seen the bank before great result 👍 liked @ subbed regards craig .
Dream fishing that is mate invest in a trailer for your bike they are lightweight but can carry a huge load and they fold down for car transporting honest u will never look back cheers mate tightlines
Id be searching for them big reed beds ive got a wicked spot on my local strech had a few high doubles lost a huge one last summer i reckon it was over 25lb couldnt do nothing with it just kept going an going till it bent the hook out
@@andrewsmith3344 Those were the days!! 💪🏻 I go back every winter for the odd piking trip but those days long gone..i had two different 25lb+ pike from the canal over 20 years ago. Your 32 pounder my dream pike 😁👍🏻🎣
Great video!!!!!!
Cracking spot of pioneer angling Jim, a very enjoyable watch, informative as usual and a couple of prizes for your efforts. Fair play.
Cheers Danny..much appreciated 👏🏻🎣

Hope you get another chance at landing it 🎣 best of luck 👌🏻
@@jim_lightfoot and me pal i think it was a big mirror theres also a ghostie koi looking carp i got a video on my channel
A bit different Jim, from the Bridgewater canal at Agden!!
Loved it there too 😀🎣 some cracking carp there back in the day 👌🏻
@@jim_lightfoot me and my mate were piking in the same swims you were carping! We had a lot over 20lb including the big one at 32lbs! Great fishing!

A trailer would be handy
Hey Jim, can you get further with the baiting spoon that you would a catapult?
Hi James, no mate..you’ll get further with a catapult but I much prefer the baiting spoon 😀👍🏻
Any decent pike in those canals Jim ?
There’s pike but have not seen any decent ones..14 pounder biggest I’ve seen. Water colour on these canals not quite right for big pike 👍🏻🎣
Hi Jim are these canals near where you live in France please as much prefer to fish these types of water. Many thanks Terry.
Hi Terry, all within a couple of hours of my place. Canal de Garonne & Canal du Midi 👍🏻👍🏻🎣
@@jim_lightfoot well done jim great stuff mate 😃😁👍
