I would love to see more topwater and more bfs fishing. Two approaches that I really enjoy. What I have found with weedless topwaters like those frogs is to wait after the strike until you feel the weight of the fish, and then set (at least for bass)
@@WillyEckaslike Bait finesse. It's light lures on baitcasters usually 0.5-5g is considered bfs - some others would say lighter or heavier but it primarily originates from Japan i believe.
Your canals are so clear, where I live they are so coloured you have about 6 inches of visibility then my lure is out of sight. But once again Chris a cracking video as usual.
Same here mate, guess your playing for norf fc , were the canala are drinking chocolate coloured, only remedy is vibration , those small glass vials with small steel reattles work well on soft plazzies, or wopper plopper for surface fishing for pike, small vib lures work well on the perch so there is workarounds, things that i have no answer too is my canal is featureless, the odd bridge or moored up barge is the only structures likely to hold perch 👍
Brilliant as usual. 👍 I've just recommended your channel on a chat room on here, hope you don't mind. I said you were a fishing magician who could catch a pike out of a puddle...its true!
The sun Is setting as I write, It's been a beautiful warm day today. Let's hope there Is more of It to come. Great session again Chris. Hope everything thing is going alright with the New Born. Give the Hack to Sean (SnaggBro) and let's see If He can finally get a Hook Set this Year, Keep 'Em Coming.
Good day, I love watching your videos and my missus joins me too, I also follow few other guys fishing on Tube, one of them is FishHawk but everytime he goes "Fish on" my my missus hates it, and leaves the room, she really likes you and your accent but you also said "fish on" few times on this video. So long story short, she said to message you and ask you to stop saying that because she won't let me watch your videos on telly 😂😅😂. Anyway keep up the good work.
Chris, please don't go to lmab. I use to watch dom all the time when he signed up with lmab it messed up his channel. Just keep doing you. Another great video as always 👏🏻
15 years ago I was addicted to fishing and a tackle junkie I put it aside and had 3 awesome kids free time is starting to be a thing again now back then I tried to find frog loors after seeing pike smash real frog's
Just bought the reel on the strength of this to use with my Korum so solid Great reel Can't wait to get out with it on the river (No canals or lakes near me - pit I've a sub for only allows lures Oct-Mar)
Great video Chris. The drone shots are incredible. I noticed a small tear in a pikes mouth in the video. I always feel bad when I do this and I was wondering does this heal?
What brand of net is the red one you are using please Chris? Do you recommend it or do you prefer another? My old man is watching and commenting as I write this so might treat him 😂.
I'm a carp fisherman, but I tried surface fishing with frogs for pike and set 0 hooks no matter how much I tired lol follow after follow. Take after take. 0 hooks set. So I've give up on pike 😆
Hi an awsome video may I ask what braid you're using I have this combo and struggling to cast little stuff and think it's my line as it looks like you're not even using weight just the lure
@@ryanpaylor3969 okay. how many yards did you run on your spool? and what is exactly where you struggles. is it the knot or sticky line. Berkley is not really known for fair line sizes and it also quickly gives a kind of hair to the braid so that it kind of sticks and then you throw wigs
@@mona-vdB it's spooled correctly put 60m on as was told to use half the real of braid yh I night try a different one and see I struggle 3 gram and down I seem to he fine woth a 4 gram jig head and lure but anything under just birds nest everywhere
@@ryanpaylor3969 i think it's your cast motion then. you really need to charge your rod. to throw it like a spinning rod isn't going to work. if it is a tsu darkwolf it should be able to throw 2.5 total with the right line and cast motion. I've had the rod too and it's not the easiest to load up and then throw low lures. But, it is quite sensitive and the top is still so tight that you can still throw cranc baits
@@The_ginger_fisherman - blimey that’s amazed me. Just goes to show what’s out there if you look! I do know that there are no free stretches of canal, according to the C&R trust I’ve found stretches of river that don’t appear to have any club affiliation, but it’s all on private land. Maybe a video on how to find free stretches in your local area? Finding water is easy, but not always who it belongs to.
What does BFS mean, can someone tell me please. I know that LMBA are obviously paying you very well for advertising their products but there are many other makers of similar equipment. I've got an almost identical setup that I've used successfully for years, it cost me a fraction of that LMBA one you're using, I checked its price.
Drone footage was wicked! More please
Awesome drone footage of the fish following and hitting the lure
Cracking session Chris. Loving the aerial shots too
Brilliant video as always Chris. The drone footage of the take is awesome!
Production quality is getting better every week. Those takes filmed on the drone - lovely stuff!
Love the drone footage! Amazing as always. Thanks Sensei🙏

Great video Chris I enjoy watching and seeing how good you are now as a profession video maker! Well done.
Another great vid Chris. Good adjustment in your strike style and you reaped your rewards. Deserved mate.👍☺
Drone footage of the actual hit is fantastic to watch. Class 👌
That drone footage of the fish strike was great
That's how we catch snakes in Thailand,my lad had a 27 lb pike on one of those humpping toads,lovely vid.
Makes meant to get them. Cheap topwater solution
6:06 probably the greatest single shot I've seen on your Channel! Class!
Very nice set up and some really nice fish . Well done Chris.
Nice clear filming video easy to watch that what ever you did .Thanks for the video man
This is probably got to be one of my favourite videos of yours really enjoyed it

Same where I live near the Ashby canal I would love to see a video on the Ashby and see how it goes
Fantastic fishing my friend
I love watching your vids.
Greetz from Holland 👌🏻
Great video mate 🎣
I love it when the spooky music comes on because it means you’re about to hook up!
Those overhead drone shots work very well.
Good session, like the way you thought about the hook up situation and made changes. 👍👍
Those aerial shots are 🔥
Very nice drone Footage!! thanks yet an other intresting video!!!
Brilliant as usual. 👍 I've just recommended your channel on a chat room on here, hope you don't mind. I said you were a fishing magician who could catch a pike out of a puddle...its true!
Great video and drone shots are amazing.
Great bit of drone footage, that’s the way to go let’s have some more please.
Awesome session matey. Love the aerial takes. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great rod, I’ve got the same and they are light and powerful, do some more light tackle stuff please….BFS it’s a pure way of fishing, and lots of fun
What does BFS mean buddy?

Always nice to see you fishing local spots 😁 what drone isit youre using for filming??
Absolutely wonderful like always love your videos!😊
very good recording when the two pike attack😁
This is a cheap and no less effective bait than a popper. Cool video bro😍
Sick eat there like 8 mins. Great capture.
Cracking video! 👍🐳👏
Lovely fishing mate 👍
Again a great video!
Keep up the good work Chris!

Bit of a rip on that 1st
pikes mouth, great footage 👏 lovely little set up ,,yeah not sure about that big hook. Seems to just pull through thin skin
Another great video keep up the good work
drone shots of takes are nice
Very cool shot at 6:07 !
6:06 amazing shot
For anyone looking to get into BFS, this is a great rod reel combo!
Chris, please don't go to lmab. I use to watch dom all the time when he signed up with lmab it messed up his channel. Just keep doing you. Another great video as always 👏🏻
Hi Chris, how are you attaching your wire leaders to your hook please?
Chris, whats the light knotable wire you have & how do you use it?
Topwater and BFS... ticking off 2 very popular search terms
15 years ago I was addicted to fishing and a tackle junkie I put it aside and had 3 awesome kids free time is starting to be a thing again now back then I tried to find frog loors after seeing pike smash real frog's
Just bought the reel on the strength of this to use with my Korum so solid
Great reel Can't wait to get out with it on the river (No canals or lakes near me - pit I've a sub for only allows lures Oct-Mar)
First time out with the reel today Just 1 little jack but yes it's a super reel for light lures
Great combo, have this one as well. Cant wait to go fishing!
is there someone else with you in the videos taking the drone footage ?
Do any boats use this area? All my local canals are so busy.
Great video Chris. The drone shots are incredible. I noticed a small tear in a pikes mouth in the video. I always feel bad when I do this and I was wondering does this heal?
Epic as usual!
Quality session mate ! what camera do you use for your close and clear shots?
What stretch of canal bro for chub in canal yes
Just bought 3d bat and 3d rat from savage gear.gonna give them a go weekend!
Good luck pal 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😸
Chris im new here and I seen few videos. They are great ! Good job man. Could tell me which frog bait you use ?
thats awesome well done x
What brand of net is the red one you are using please Chris? Do you recommend it or do you prefer another? My old man is watching and commenting as I write this so might treat him 😂.
What's the knotable wire?
I have also been thinking about fishing with frogs. Would you recommend fishing with frogs in May?
Really wanna know we're abouts u are on canal I love the canals
What is BFS? Good fishing!
Brilliant video have you it may be worth trying the ffslures frog give them go i think you like them
Great stretch, worth the £30 membership 👌
Chris, excuse my ignorance but what is BFS?
Do you use polarised glasses? Ps I never knew theres chubs in canals hah
Just saw that you do haha
Where do you ever find such clear water canals come and try the Ashby its Chocolate coloured
what does BFS stand for ?
Vwhats BSF? A USA term?
I'm a carp fisherman, but I tried surface fishing with frogs for pike and set 0 hooks no matter how much I tired lol follow after follow. Take after take. 0 hooks set. So I've give up on pike 😆
Hook sets are so difficult with frogs, so frustrating

Oh no , really do hope LMAB arent going to be making another takeover of a great TH-cam channel.
Yes I hope not too.
I really don't think Chris would do that.
Fingers crossed he won't.
Hes had that bfs setup years mate
He's using an LMAB rod, Tsurinoya reel and line, Gurza hooks and Z-Man lures. How does that equate to an LMAB take over of the channel? 😅
@@seanfraustus I think he's probably referring to db fishing who changed to lmab uk
@@sparky36199 wait when?
Top blow ups for Top angler super fit fish 😊
love the vid
❤❤❤
which kind of license do you have because you can fish everywhere?
I’ll bet Chris has 10 or 12 club memberships so he gets access to a lot of water.
@@leftmono1016 probably 80% of the water I'm fishing in this video is actually free fishing. The other 20 is day ticket

The aerial is amazing, let you understand how the fish react to the lure.
Where are these canals cos mine by me are like fishing in hot chocolate 😂
