Thank you mate! Means a lot you enjoyed it! It was a great session and just being able to be on the bank and chat to him was great! But happy with how I fished for sure!
Great vid, and well done 👍 I’m tempted to have a proper go on the canal whilst I wait for the rivers to open. Do you generally fish weedless or with the hook exposed?
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed! I think you should! Get out and enjoy! I typically fish weedless, but on the canals I've been fishing 1.5g jig heads a lot of the time! I do lose some gear though!
@@TheEssexAnglerYT - I’m always concerned about missing bites when fishing weedless, but it does allow to explore. I did take a look at my available canal stretch last weekend, really clear with some cabbages and other weed starting to grow. Hopefully plenty of potential 🤞
@@leftmono1016 I don't think I miss too many bites tbh, so I don't know if it will affect it too much, probably depends on the weedless setup! I find the stuff from FFS all fits very well on the hooks and is soft enough to not miss bites!
Thanks for your videos and for sharing them. I know that location in Northants very well that you've been to in your last few videos, I used to live very close by. I started angling just a few weeks ago. I'm now in Oxfordshire and caught a 48cm Zander from the Oxford Canal last night on a 3.5cm Salmo Hornet I keep trying to add a hyperlink here of the photo but YT keeps deleting the comment.
It doesn't, most of my videos are enjoying fishing, but I wanted to do something a bit different! Surely as long as you enjoy it, pleasure of competition it doesn't matter?
Instead of showing us what you catch how about showing us your set ups show us what are you using? Don’t tell us what you use and actually show us your method… one other thing explain to us, whereabouts you’re actually fishing we’re on the canal today. We’re on the river today but you never mention were
I need to show and explain my setups more often in videos I do agree. To be honest, I forget while on the bank a lot of the time! In terms of location, I won't share where specifically I fish. Not many people would. A lot of my spots on rivers and canals I've worked hard to find! Thanks for the comment!
Great video Bailey. Awesome days fishing with one of thee best. You must feel proud to be able to match him.

@@TheEssexAnglerYT - you’re right, the set up has to be good. Right size hook for the lure etc.
Thanks mate.

Well done mate! You did caught my fish so maybe 😊
I caught your fish haha?
Thanks for watching!
Another good video thanks mate 👍
Thanks for watching mate!!! Glad you enjoyed!
You dont know where the fish are only where you have caught before
That's true, however they do stick to the same rough areas
What does it matter.
Why can't people just go fishing to enjoy the day out

The unwritten rule is to never ask about location. Common sense. I definitely wouldn’t share my best spots.
