Absolutely love the channel, contents always on the nose, brilliant how you don’t take yourself too seriously or worry about set backs, love the overall philosophy and attitude, keep it up Chris, I hope this channel is bringing you a good income for all the effort you put it, can’t wait for the next competition too! Tight lines
I’ve been struggling a lot on the canal this winter with no bites in the last 3 months so it is great to see how you approach lure fishing in these freezing days! Thanks for the amazing video ❤
My advice would be fish slower and bigger (if the canal is suited to bigger lures) A 16cm (nothing massive by any stretch) curly tail bait on a light screw in jig head can be an easy (and cost effective) way to fish slower moving water. Then I'd suggest sticking to natural colours like silver with some contrast - these tend to work on a wider variety of conditions and water quality if you're struggling to pick stuff up that you'd normally think would work
@@bill0273 If he caught more species then 100% but he goes for what he likes and what he likes he knows bucket loads.. He reads predator fish better than anyone I've seen (Maybe Mick the pikeman but he's on TV) Amazing in the comp as well. Really looking forward to the next stages in the Netherlands.
The moment Im thinking Noooooo - not on ice.... And womp. down you went. Only in my case it was a BSA 650 - about a half century ago when I was young and limber. (Not so limber now!) Even at zero speed these things are hard to laugh it, unless you have a witness - then the pressure of manning-it-up clicks in.
G'day Chris, awesome pike both of them. You're still an accident waiting to happen just like me 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Keep warm mate , 34 here in Brisbane to day .👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.
Hands up if never slipped on ice before I'm glad he put it the clip in there are to many glossy TH-cam vids just showing catch after catch when we all know that's not the reality of fishing accidents broken rods days when you blank all part of it
@@matthewcove8597 I once can off a bike in the ice taking a corner at 20 in the ice , ruined my jeans sliding across the road . I've been over car bonnets the lot back in the day .
Great job. Some great fish. I do exactly the same thing with the drunk dancer and a weighted semi-boyant head. You can buy the actual MM "tails" for about half the price of the DD though their tail movement isnt quite as nice.. The larger DD is one of my favourite lures for fishing slow for bigger fish, but the longevity of them can be an issue if the pike get a good hit on the tails, a pain given theyre nearly £10 a pop for a soft bait. I felt you falling off your bike then. hope you didnt hurt yourself.
I clipped the end of an over hanging tree a few sessions back ant snapped the end section. Of my rod ...also cut through my braid and sent my otus flying into the lake.. 😢 that was my Xmas pressy gone ...
If you use the Hindsight function in GoPro, it only lasts for the first 15 minutes and then the camera goes into normal rest mode and you have to press the record button to record the material
I watched your casting technique on the three casts as you broke the rod and it was a pretty violent cast you were performing with quite a heavy lure. You don't need telling by now to keep your cast gentle and follow through with the rod, especially with heavy lures. We all make mistakes and I did that too once with a Shaky feeder rod casting a feeder that was on the limits of what the rod could take. Sure enough, it snapped too just above the ferrule, which is typically where a 2-piece rod will break. Still, you have enough rods and money to buy a new one. 😆

Hi man I really love yours vidéos. After seeing this video I have decided to buy the same fishing rods that you used (Beast Pro). Could you share the fishing reel that you used please ?? Thanks.
I broke three fly rods last season, so I feel your pain. I managed to get replacement parts for two of them, but not until I had bought two new rods. That's how I got them past the missus.
I’ve been a fisherman since my childhood starting on noddy bashing and then on to carp when it was good times can’t stand it now industry flooded wiv money making stuff so annoying. So I’ve turned to lure fishing on the rivers wiv a small rod and nothing much else. Wat I’ve come to realise is it doesn’t matter wat lure you use they all catch. I hope lure fishing doesn’t become the pollution of carp fishing just fish guys don’t listen to to much it all works. Not to say i dont love the ginger fisherman hes one of the good ones
love Your videos, but I'm a little disappointed for Your crash on ice. In the first moment Your wheel reached it, I thought this is no good idea.... but still love Your videos ❤
New to fishing and loving every minute, I should have started 45 years ago, love your videos as they really help with how to look after, unhook etc. After hooking my first pike my hands were literally shaking from the adrenaline, your vids helped me ( and the fish) get through it safely. 🫡
So i live in England and have tried both deadbait and lures and gone fishing 4 times for pike and still not got my first pike hoping soon i can get back out and get my first pike
@@frank3lmo just a matter of finding where they are then. Spots with lots of weed or where it's deep by the bankside are the best. Also areas with slower water on rivers
@@frank3lmo the weather is terrible for fishing right now so bites will be hard to come by. Once the weather starts to warm up around Feb to march it will get much easier.
Carbon fibre doesn't like flexing too much when it's bloody freezing.......................I've had two match rods in the past break just like that. Just my opinion...
Great fishing skills . Bike riding not so much . Have you passed your cycling profficency test 😂😂
Never took it :(
Broken rod, Chris goes figure skating on his bike.... Normal day. 😂 Nice one. 👍
So consistent with putting out videos thanks for another brilliant one ginger 👍

Opět úžasné video, Chrisi, moc děkuji a posílám pozdrav z Čech 😊
I lived in a house with people from your country. Very good house mates..
Awesome vid as usual, still doing all your own stunts I see👀😂
Great watch, sent it to my kids.
Keep up the good work G👊👊
Well done Chris. Awesome take on that last one!
Best fisherman on you tube by far top work 👌👌👍
He is the only predator angler I watch.
Fish with Carl for carp, barbel and so on.. and Sir Ginger for the pike and perch.
What’s a preditor
@@nickybayton8332 It's a predator for dyslexics. 😉😉

Ginger fisherman on a Sunday 💪💪❤️
Well done Chris ,nice video , I'm glad you didn't damage your left arm again when you fell .
I'm wait till the temperature around 5 + to cold for me .Keep those videos coming brilliant my fellow ginger
Well that’s a great ad for the durability of the Zebra E-bike. And the pike were quite decent too 👊🏻🎣🚲

Cracking vid Chris in more than one way you get through some kit mate 🎣👊💯
Chris, you made top 50 most imfluencial fishing persons in the AT top 50. Well done
Thanks buddy
Lovely bit of pike fishing Chris . Some very nice fish 👍
Thanks for another great video
Brilliant thanks for the video chris
Great video my dad use to make similar in the early 90s crazy what goes around comes around 👍
Absolutely savage take at the end!
Well done, the pike looked in very good condition.
Nick from York
The main man always has a plan....fantastic
Great video and nice fish, Chris well done!
No more bike on the ice for you!
6:13 what did you think was going to happen!? 😂😂
I definitely wouldn’t have put this in, I’d have kept it quiet
He likes a calamity doesn't he 😂😂😂

Another entertaining video by a great fisherman with character, love all your work.. David B. Chichester
Thanks. Great episode 😊
Great Fishing day!!! Super fisherman!! ❤
lol.. how did the rod break,,, bike accident,,lol.. great video
Your vids get better and better, great enthusiasm and great angling skills.
Time you were "snapped up" by a major angling firm 😁
I wouldn’t think that would be a good thing after the state of the DB fishing channel nowadays.
Thanks buddy! I've actually been working with some of the biggest brands in lure fishing for the past few years :)
Great video, lovely filming.
Rough day brother,great video all the same
A nice pike fishing video .

Enhorabuena por las capturas y es una faena lo de la caña 😢 ,un saludo desde España 🇪🇸 🤠👍
Love your videos, they make me want to go out and cast a few cast and catch a pike or two. The only problem is 1 meter of snow, 60cm of ice and -20C😁
The KOFI ROACH looks very similar to a Trout! I hope that you are OK after the ski run lol.
Some lovely pike there Chris. I see you as much of a big kid as me riding over ice on the bike in the winter 😂.
I knew you were going to crash on that video bikes and ice don't mix well !!!! Great video you smashed those pike Ginger Power !!!!❤
You must apply for the pike fishing championship mate you really know your stuff have a go who knows
Good Video as always Chris. ✊
Cool vid, well done on the ypc uk 🏆🥇👍🏻🎣
Great vid Chris, looks very 🥶
Cracking pike mate 👍
Love the channel, pal great fishing! What drone do you use?
Its the dji mini 2se buddy
Brilliant 👍
Bikes and ice don’t mix mate 😁 had a few mishaps myself 👍
😮 4:06
Nice frosty wearher fishin..
Have you ever had a Marius mouse and have you ever caught on it because I have never caught any with it and I spent about 30 plus for it
I was having a good day, it just got better. Cracking pike, you must be chuffed.
I clipped the end of an over hanging tree a few sessions back ant snapped the end section. Of my rod ...also cut through my braid and sent my otus flying into the lake.. 😢 that was my Xmas pressy gone ...
The bike ride did go well
You hurt your butt and wallet
lol
Great fish too
The biggest Pike I have caught was 10 kg On a really thin line my line was only 12 mm I spent 45 minutes to getting it ashore keep up the god work 💯
Greetings from Poland
Doubles only 👊
Wonder if the bike fall damaged the rod??

Not too sure about that mate. Have you thrown big baits on those abu beast rods before by any chance? They're rock solid
@@DanielKilleen-w7u I'm not convinced by Abu quality these days since almost everything is made in China. Remember - Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
Why would you even attempt to ride over that ice?
After trying to ride on ice will you please try walking on water too! 😅😂😅

It was at that moment he realised. He’d fooked up. 😅
omg what was that bike on the ice xD shambles honestly
Ice is ice!
Awesome Pike fishing! 🔥🐊 Sorry about the rod! 😬
love Your videos, but I'm a little disappointed for Your crash on ice. In the first moment Your wheel reached it, I thought this is no good idea....
but still love Your videos ❤
Two wheels and ice don't mix, nice fishing though 👍
proper acident prone you mate funny slide on ice
How can the Pike feeding Coldwater
1,39 is that a huge pike at top of screen just sat off waiting
Nice pike
Glad you did didn't mess your arm up again champ!
Hey snaggedbro another double a real one
Doubles only just like snagged bro 😅
to answer your question about going over the ice, is, NO. lol
I think the cold must effect the carbon. I broke two rods in the cold just before Christmas
Sometimes Go-pros switch on and off when your talking if you don't switch off voice activation setting.
Maaate you just got your arm somewhere back to normal and then peddle on ice! C’mon bro stay safe!
my favorite cold water lethargic pike lure is still a good suspending jerk bait. nothing better in my experience
Where is this guy fishing it takes me a day to catch 1 pike if I'm lucky 2
New to fishing and loving every minute, I should have started 45 years ago, love your videos as they really help with how to look after, unhook etc. After hooking my first pike my hands were literally shaking from the adrenaline, your vids helped me ( and the fish) get through it safely. 🫡
Ahhh mate thats well pants snapping your rod.... Note to self do not ride over ice on a bike lol*
The ol intrusive thoughts winning again
So i live in England and have tried both deadbait and lures and gone fishing 4 times for pike and still not got my first pike hoping soon i can get back out and get my first pike
does the water your fishing have pike?
Yeah apparently there is loads in and supposed to be some good sized too
@@frank3lmo just a matter of finding where they are then. Spots with lots of weed or where it's deep by the bankside are the best. Also areas with slower water on rivers
@@TheMortalKombatent yep been doing that just not been getting bites but thats fishing i guess
@@frank3lmo the weather is terrible for fishing right now so bites will be hard to come by. Once the weather starts to warm up around Feb to march it will get much easier.
wish i could spinfish pike right now in sweden. Cept theres ice everwhere and minus 7 seems like a summer day at this point. F#@K
We had - 36 a couple of weeks ago ;)
Hey snaggedbro that's a double
👍👍🎣🎣👍👍
Classic bike crash ;) Made me chuckle
Drunk dancers are a good lure but only expect 1 or 2 pike per lure as they damage way to easy.
LOL sharpen ya hooks just pulling ya tail feathers
