Thanks for the lure mate! Thought it was from you but I wasn't 100% so I didn't mention it incase I was thinking of a different one! Did you ever have any luck on it?
Now then (ur definitely from Doncaster 🙃) awesome video. Thank you. I am just getting into lure fishing and would love to fish with you to learn! U seriously make it look too easy!
Now then buddy and another Cracking video George….. hope you and the family are well … you certainly have you some crazy fishing lures some of which I have myself 🤣🤣 it’s amazing what stuff we buy and accumulate, especially when it comes to fishing. Just tell the other half, they were only a pound each 🤣🤣🤣
😂 Thanks john, hope you're keeping well! Yeah i do like to keep things interesting but sometimes it's fun to go right back to basics. Only a pound each, that's a good one i'll have to remember!
I agree with Mick, enthusiastic and passionate about fishing and could help another gen to get off the phones off their arse and out fishing... Any time ya wana come to Co. Down, Northern Ireland and fish there's plenty of lakes and craic 👍, plus easy put up for a few nights to do so, bring your bros bang average ,, I'm sure we could get yas all set up for the week to do some quality pike and perch fishing at the Lough's around the place. Plenty of them, hit Google maps Co. Down. I'm biggen it up but I'm sure yous would all have a good bit a banter no doubt 👍🤠
Thanks for the offer mate i'd absolutely love to come fish over that way, just quite the journey for me! I'm hoping to come next year at some point so stay in touch and i'll let you know if i can make it over
Love watching your vids mate, I’ve only ever been fishing twice in my life and the first time I went the only fish I caught was a foul hooked perch that was about 3” long 😂😂 but I was always fascinated buy the skill it takes to do what you need to to catch some and land it. Do you ever eat any of your catches? Are you even allowed to? Keep em coming and I’ll keep watching 😊
Thanks for watching, you should definitely spend a bit more time out on the bank! I don't eat what I catch no, aside from the occasional catch and cook!
@@adventurefishinguk cheers, yeah I got the hang of all that pretty quickly! Been lure fishing a good few times now probably caught 8/9 pike now! Also would love to see more perch videos from you! That’s what I’m going to be targeting more in the future 😁🎣🎣
@@richardjones2811 I always like to feather the line when windy or casting close to snags, helps stopping a huge bow in the line when the lure hits the water, and many fish take the lure at this point, with a big bow in the line you might not feel the bite before its too late. And when fishing near snags, feathering it can help with being more accurate.
@@joechappell368 Each to their own but we have both highlighted the issues and how to resolve them. By the way just stopping the braid before the lure hits the water will reduce the bow significantly. Then giving a good tug on the rod will totally eliminate it.
@@richardjones2811 that doesnt work sea-trout fishing on the beach with a south western headwind at force 7, i just found in my limited experience that feather a line during the cast give you a better control over the bait, but i also understand what your saying
is there any chance catching a carp on those lures? i know with spinners you can but idk about jerks have you had any experience? just asking so i could go to carp ponds for big pike btw love the vids!
Lot's of big carp lakes also hold big pike, they compliment each other well. The pike eat the smaller fish which means more food and less competition for the carp. Most carp lakes don't allow lure fishing as they're worried about people foul hooking a carp but deadbaits will always work just as well on these venues.
That's not true, that rule only applies when it's busy or at weekends. Midweek they're perfectly happy for people to roam around, ask in the shop next time you're there.
George, you always have the same enthusiasm and excitement in every video you do, thank you for passing it on to the younger angler and novice .
Thanks mate I appreciate that! Doing what I can to get more people out catching
Great video George and what a good pike to finish the video off and great footage keep them coming tight lines 🎣🎣👍
Thanks mate, happy you enjoyed watching!
Great video pal - great advice and smashing Pike at the end as well! YOU BEEN DUE THAT BAD BOY! 😅
Thanks mate, been a long time coming after all the hours that have gone into it!
Cracking pike mate!😍🎣
Thanks mate!
Great simple pike fishing 🎣 good chanel 👌
Thanks mate glad you're enjoying it!
I've wanted some fishing time in the winter. This way you stay warm. So I bought a rigged and ready reel, spinning rod and spinners/lures.
Hopefully you get onto a few fish mate!
"match the hatch" - I like that one 😊more fly fishing videos would be interesting and also maybe showing how flies can be hand crafted...
Planning some fly fishing just as soon as this wind dies down!
Excellent George as always mate,pretty sure I recognise that lure 😉 keep them coming 👍🏻
Thanks for the lure mate! Thought it was from you but I wasn't 100% so I didn't mention it incase I was thinking of a different one! Did you ever have any luck on it?
@Adventure Fishing UK I never used it George,It was to heavy for my set up at the time
“And you won’t fail, well you might blank” 😂😂😂
Haha yeah, happens to the best of us, the occasional blank is unavoidable!
Nice one George!
Thanks mate!
Great fish George - hope you continue to catch big in ‘23
Thanks mate!
Cracking fish lots of perseverance mate great video keep up the good work 👍🏼
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!
wauw beautiful catch !! keep up the good work
Thanks mate!
I enjoy pike fishing. Recently looking into dead baiting for them. Splendid bunch of pike you caught.
Thanks mate! I prefer lure fishing but I do like a bit of deadbaiting from time to time!
That last pike, was a beauty. 13 pound a cracker.
Thanks mate, could well be my second biggest ever!
That was a very nice pike, well done George.
😎🎣🐟
Thank you!
Brilliant video. My winter fishing has been awful. Some great hints & tips
Thanks mate, glad it's helped you out!
Well Done Mate Great Fish love those Lures myself on my local canal
Thanks mate! Yeah a couple of good ones there that's for sure
Fantastic man! Great stuff
Thanks mate!
Now then (ur definitely from Doncaster 🙃) awesome video. Thank you. I am just getting into lure fishing and would love to fish with you to learn! U seriously make it look too easy!
Not quite doncaster mate I live near lancaster! Thanks for watching and i'm glad you liked the video
That was an absolute beast George, you seem to have such luck, I can go several days out and blank everytime....
Thanks mate, I have my share of blanks too it’s all part of it!
Awesome vid mate! Always fun to watch you use crazy lures 😂
Thanks mate! Yeah it's always fun to fish with the mad ones too, just takes a lot longer to get fish on the bank 😂

Stonging Fish that george, that venue owe's you a good fish : )
Thanks mate, I definitely put the hours in there!
Great video. Good start to the year I've only had the one blank so far.
Thanks mate, fingers crossed we both have a good 2023 👍

Well done George. You deserved that pike well cool 😊
Thanks mate, I definitely put the hours in!
Just started pike fishing, what’s the biggest tip you have? 🎣
Put the time into learning how to safely unhook and handle them mate, and have the right tools for the job!
@@adventurefishinguk cheers, yeah I got the hang of all that pretty quickly! Been lure fishing a good few times now probably caught 8/9 pike now!
Also would love to see more perch videos from you! That’s what I’m going to be targeting more in the future 😁🎣🎣
Watch all the Adventure Fishing UK Video's ; )
OOW! OOW! OOW!
YEEES! Brilliant, love your vids mate. Gorgeous lady you had there, well done!
Thanks mate, really glad you're enjoying the videos!
I think you should come to the river Erne if you don’t catch a 20 you’re cra
I'd love to but quite the journey for me!
Awesome fishing buddy!👌 I still can't chin the pike 😐
It’s a bit scary at first but you will get the hang of it. Start with a glove if you are unsure! It’s worth watching a few videos …I did
Thanks mate, just be brave! Once you do it a few times it becomes second nature
Great video. Re that tangle. Do you get tangles after casting from a fixed spool with braid? - I do !
feather your line when your casting and always keep it under tension when your picking up loose line at the start of the retrieve
@@whitetroutchannel No need to feather the line if you keep the braid under tension after the previous cast mate.
@@richardjones2811 I always like to feather the line when windy or casting close to snags, helps stopping a huge bow in the line when the lure hits the water, and many fish take the lure at this point, with a big bow in the line you might not feel the bite before its too late.

Great video, what length do you have your Predator rod at when fishing??
Thanks mate! Completely depends what size lures i'm using. Here the shorter length to cast the bigger ones 👍
That happened to my mate the other day n caught n 17lb was his pb n all
17lb is a cracker of a fish!
@@adventurefishinguk mate he was shitting it took it at his feet aswell when he was reeling in the perch
is there any chance catching a carp on those lures? i know with spinners you can but idk about jerks have you had any experience? just asking so i could go to carp ponds for big pike btw love the vids!
Lot's of big carp lakes also hold big pike, they compliment each other well. The pike eat the smaller fish which means more food and less competition for the carp. Most carp lakes don't allow lure fishing as they're worried about people foul hooking a carp but deadbaits will always work just as well on these venues.
Not really a chance of a carp on a pike lure. In the right situation you'd have a chance with a lot of perch lures though
lucky 13 :)
👍
How are you escaping these gales buddy?
I'm struggling a bit to be honest! Makes filming a lot more difficult, have ti be very selective with where I fish or wind noise ruins the footage!
"three hours later" 😂
Was more like 45 seconds but definitely felt like 3 hours seeing that big fish slowly swimming away!
Your meant to stick to pegs on that venue but you continue to fish anywhere ? One rule for some and others for u
I didn’t see another soul on that lake, I don’t think anyone will care
@@samellis2705 not the point if a venue has rules there meant to be stuck too
That's not true, that rule only applies when it's busy or at weekends. Midweek they're perfectly happy for people to roam around, ask in the shop next time you're there.
What lake is this? Looks strangly familiar.
Yeah mate , get yourself over there and start telling people off 🙄
I’ve gave up with the pike this year I couldn’t catch a cold 😁. You always catch and entertain me bro so I will just watch with envy 👍
Thanks for watching mate! It's never easy, stick at it and i'm sure you'll get onto them
Hey mate I sent you message on Facebook, so when you got time check your messages cheers Ira
I'll have a look mate!
