One Rod is often all you need. Beeing at the right Time in the right Place is essential. Waiting for Spring and beautiful Tench. Enjoy your life on the waters Edge. Greetings from Germany.
Love the dawn courous. Another great vid mark as always. We'll done. Off myself Thursday but warm but rather that than married at 1st sight or love island 👍👍👍
Nice going Mark, a quick session, and simplicity itself with the set up / tackle required. I'm now on the look out for one of those Shimano rods at a decent price... I've not used (or seen) the lift method with the shot set up as you showed, but it makes perfect sense! Thanks for the upload, and for improving our (well, mine at least!) angling by sharing your techniques and methodology.
Cheers Jason yeh i find it is more adjustable with the shotting like that and easier to break off from there with a rotten bottom as such for the weight.
Hi Mark great to see you out fishing again. What an amazing couple of hours or nearly three hours fishing. Two beautiful Male Tench. Thank you for sharing another great video. Best wishes from Dave somethingaboutbeingout,
Good simple but rock solid angling as always Mark , rod handled the short session brilliantly and a couple of stunning condition Tinca's to boot .. Dawn chorus and tranquillity , cant buy that now days , lovely lil' venue fella. Tight Lines Mark. Steve M
Hi Mark. Thank you for all your videos, you are one of the best content creators I know. I hope one day I will be like you. Maybe I will see you on a river.
Lovely fishing .I’m going for tench 2moro so hopefully I get into a few ..I had been watching your videos for years but the last year Iv had nothing coming up on my you tube .. I remember a video a while back where u had a beauty of a perch . Keep up the good work 👍
Been a subscriber for a while never commented on your channel before but thought I would just say how much I enjoy your videos. Have used the lift method for years but never thought of using the weight on a week link. Great bit of info keep up the good work
Wow, thank you for taking the time to comment, that is good of you Gary, it is nice to be able to proivide some helpful information when I can do too. Thanks again for commenting as that also helps the video to be seen more too, which is always a struggle with youtube and being a smaller channel.
I’m mainly a fly fisherman these days, but I remember my first tench 55 years ago - I learned the Lift Method from Mr Crabtree. So this was a very interesting video, Mark. Brought back great memories.
Hi Mark, thanks again for your TH-cam channel. Much appreciated, been trying the local river recently and enjoining it now there are not so many paddle boarders etc. Haven't had the big catch yet but happy with 1lb roach, 2-3b chub, some dace and perch.
Hello , Mark . I can’t stand being alone in the pinch black darkness all through the night . Gorgeous tench . Thank you very much . By the way , the pronunciation of Shimano in English is Shi maaa nooo . But in Japanese is Shima no . In musical scales are like this . MiRe Do . Shima no . Accent is on only * Shi * .

Hey Mark, nice video as always, love watching them 👌🏻👍🏻 looks like a really nice rod 👌🏻 great to have all the time in the car when you find a nice spot just stop and fish 😜👍🏻
I very much understand where your coming from about it being hard to grow as a small channel , looking forward to this one haven’t been tench fishing in a while
What a beautiful serene spot and a couple of lovely tench, good stuff Mark! Winter here and heaps of rain and wind has really slowed things down - looking forward to better weather soon!
I always have lots of action using the lift float April onwards - I use sweetcorn in the margin and hand-feed a trickle of corn all the time. Great bites and hard fights (beware the roots!).
Cracking Mark. Like others, i had always put the shot on the line for the lift method, i like what you did. Also, never thought of using my STC rod for anything other than lure fishing or light sea fishing, will try that also. Tight lines.
Nice tench Mark I was out Sunday had 12 tench and lost 6 that was all day though fishing a feeder with ringers washed out wafters chocolate orange flavour they love them where I fish 🎣👊👏💯
Cheers Philip, I think I remember an old and wise angler that I use to know say to me, anyone can look good when they are catching and the fish are willing. You always need some luck too mate.
Wish we had that rod here in Los Angeles California ...it would definitely be in my arsenal...chunky tench mate beautiful swim so natural...unlike here...
Lovely tench mark. I've got Matt Hayes 8-10ft compact commercial all-rounder rod, can carry it in rucksack if u don't use bag it comes in breaks down little bit bigger than that one ur using. So deffo going to look into getting one. How much are they Mark
Thank you ever so much Barry! Sorry for the late late reply ! it is hard to keep up with comments at times! The shimano telespin STC rods are around £80. Did you ever invest in one?
@@francolinobasco no net yet Mark always payday something comes up you know how it is. Bdays anniversarys this say that day. Mind you this month's money is going on holiday for my birthday to white acres fishing holiday from the lovely wife. It's on the bucket list lol so be ticking that one off. Will eventually get them as getting on now and fave lake down by me is no parking at all so it's a bus job lucky bus stops right outside.
Cheers and ah certainly not my editing, as it is usually fairly raw editing lol. They were fairly placid but that is not always the case with them. maybe due to the temperature at the time.
Yes, absolutely I have landed river carp to 20 on them, barbel to 13, chub to 7lb, tench to well over 9lb ( those tench coming up in the newer videos) they are blooming brilliant rods. Only thing is maxiumum casting weight is around an ounce and half max unless lowering a bait into a swim. Trust me i have used and owned them for around 15 years perhaps longer!
Why do so many experienced anglers only put their landing nets in the water when the fish is close? In my limited experience I have fewer fish fight to avoid the net when it is already sunk and they are brought to it. In my youth is was seen as a bad luck thing to put the net in until the fish was ready.
Hi Mark, after a very long break from fishing I've been back at it since October last year & loving every minute. Had quite a few tincas lately, my favourite being a little baby one about 4-5oz that fought me to the end & dragged me through a lily bed, I said to my mate, something decent on here🤣 I had to admire his fight. Like your set up, just started using "the lift", great results, especially for crucians. Just hit subscribe as you seem to know what to say & when to say it. Great job. 🐟🪱🎣👍
I could watch you harvest for hours-it’s so calming.
One Rod is often all you need. Beeing at the right Time in the right Place is essential. Waiting for Spring and beautiful Tench. Enjoy your life on the waters Edge. Greetings from Germany.
I am just exploring using the lift method, this information was brilliant thank you fella keep this sort of stuff coming!!!
Thank you Spoons and there are a fair few tench videos due soon along with some fishing float tackle reviews.
Comment for winning the TH-cam algorithm-game. Nice to see a new vid!
Thank you buddy! Appreciated.
I say 2 times, u are The King of Tenches 👌
Haha thank you!!
Love Tench fishing, it's so exciting seeing the fizz starting and slowly edging towards your bait and then getting the magical bite.
This just got recommended to me! you are finnaly getting recomended! you shown up on my home page!
Thats great to know!
Mark, that was a stand-out video; thoroughly enjoyable watch and completely absorbing. Well done chum 👍
Thank you Ian!
Hi Mark, just found your channel watched a couple so far on Perch fishing and will now munch my way through the rest. Keep up the good work.
Hey there Paul cheers for hopping on-board hope you enjoy the rest of the videos.
I believe it's the most beautiful time of the day just before dawn, and you did it again with a brace of stunning quality Tinca's 🎣🎣
Thanks John and I must agree, the dawn chorus alone is wonderful!
Lovely couple of tinca’s there mate, lovely video
Thank you Simon they were a joy to be able to share.
Love the dawn courous. Another great vid mark as always. We'll done. Off myself Thursday but warm but rather that than married at 1st sight or love island 👍👍👍
You simply cannot beat the dawn chorus, it adds a wonderful feeling of its own. Let me know how you get on during your trip too.
Nice one Mark.Enjoyed that.
Glad you enjoyed it Steve and cheers for viewing!
Another great vlog Mark, and some cracking Tench mate.
Thanks Pete plenty more coming soon too.

Thank you Timothy and I agree it is a lovely way to catch the olive greens!
Very good please do them more often mark
Great fishing n bird song...
Ahh a man who also appreciates the call of nature, it was wonderful wasn't it?
Hi Mark, thanks again for your TH-cam channel. Much appreciated, been trying the local river recently and enjoining it now there are not so many paddle boarders etc. Haven't had the big catch yet but happy with 1lb roach, 2-3b chub, some dace and perch.
You are very welcome Giles, thankfully the paddle boarders will ease off now.
Thank you Mark

Nice fishing 🎣👍
Thanks 👍 Sme
I very much understand where your coming from about it being hard to grow as a small channel , looking forward to this one haven’t been tench fishing in a while
Yes it is not easy at all and is quite the uphill battle to say the least. You can't beat a tench trip!
@@francolinobasco keep them coming! i always stop by and check out some of your videos your doing a good job mate
Wow ...belters
Another great video, keep up the good work !
What a beautiful serene spot and a couple of lovely tench, good stuff Mark! Winter here and heaps of rain and wind has really slowed things down - looking forward to better weather soon!
Frank can we please have some of your rain, we are in a bad way with little rainfall :(
@@francolinobasco Certainly Mark, I'm over it!
Hi Mark
Love all your stuff
Mark
Thank you Mark and more coming.
Love your videos mark keep them comeing
I always have lots of action using the lift float April onwards - I use sweetcorn in the margin and hand-feed a trickle of corn all the time. Great bites and hard fights (beware the roots!).
Nice vid mark good to see old fashion methods.
Glad you enjoyed it Bo, lift method is just such a wonderful way to catch tench and seeing the float jostle about dip and lay flat is very exciting!
Another good one Mark
Cheers Clive!
Fantastic Mark ‼️ As always mate! 👍👍🤘✌️
Thanks 👍 Doug, hope you're keeping well mate.
@@francolinobasco - you are very welcome my friend, hope you are keeping well also! Take care and tight lines!
The Rudd in that lake are ravenous, Ive had a few Tench from there this spring but found the Carp can also be a problem !!
Cracking Mark. Like others, i had always put the shot on the line for the lift method, i like what you did. Also, never thought of using my STC rod for anything other than lure fishing or light sea fishing, will try that also. Tight lines.
Why thank you Jason and the stc rods are good all round little rods.
Nice tenches!!
Thank you Polder!
great vid tinca tamer
Cheers Graham!
Nice tench Mark I was out Sunday had 12 tench and lost 6 that was all day though fishing a feeder with ringers washed out wafters chocolate orange flavour they love them where I fish 🎣👊👏💯
12! brilliant session mate!
@@francolinobasco thanks Mark 🎣👊💯
You make it look so easy! Well done. I had some good results with the lift method earlier this year but no Tinca's.
Cheers Philip, I think I remember an old and wise angler that I use to know say to me, anyone can look good when they are catching and the fish are willing. You always need some luck too mate.
Excellent male tench welldone
Thanks paul they were rather frisky!
Hi Mark, new subscriber be good to know if your fishing a river or a lake not always obvious 👍
Super video again mate , can't find rod or reel but maybe putting wrong name in
Hi Mark 😄
These are beautiful tench, looking forward to spring. When do you start getting out?
Depends on the weather and venue really mate
@@francolinobasco once it gets warm?
Wish we had that rod here in Los Angeles California ...it would definitely be in my arsenal...chunky tench mate beautiful swim so natural...unlike here...
Rafa they have been brilliant for me and I have used them for many years, take carp,bream,tench you name it!
Lovely tench mark.
I've got Matt Hayes 8-10ft compact commercial all-rounder rod, can carry it in rucksack if u don't use bag it comes in breaks down little bit bigger than that one ur using. So deffo going to look into getting one.

Are you using the STC 2.7m m 10-20g rod ?
Thanks Mark - simple tactics, great fish and lovely location. They seemed to come in happily - or did your editing make it look like that?
Cheers and ah certainly not my editing, as it is usually fairly raw editing lol. They were fairly placid but that is not always the case with them. maybe due to the temperature at the time.
What length of rod did you choose for the Tench fishing buddy?
I use different rods for different lakes and also biking if i dont take a rod holdall. this was the shimano Tele spin 2.7m travel concept.
hi Mark would that rod be ok yo use for small river barbel and chub, all the best
Yes, absolutely I have landed river carp to 20 on them, barbel to 13, chub to 7lb, tench to well over 9lb ( those tench coming up in the newer videos) they are blooming brilliant rods.

@@francolinobasco perfect thanks as I use a bicycle more often now as I like exploring my local river
@@bigboif7264 You will be glad to know then that these will fit in a pannier bag or even a little kit bag over your sholder, they break down tiny.
