@@moistweasel6196 but I’ve known my bread to come of when float fishing with it on the surface and sometimes I just leave it because I’ve had the fish go for the bread and take the hook by accident lol
Yeah my current favourite UK fishing channel, I do all kinds of fishing styles.... But walking river stretches with light tackle and some weird baits is by far my favourite method
In your opinion do you think bacon works well as bait? Do you think Bacon could be as good as earthworms as bait? The reason I ask is because I now want to fish ONLY if I don't use live bait such as worms. I just don't want to kill anything if I do not have to. I'm very interested in using Bacon for bait.
I am going to my canal on Friday to start my lure campaign and will try the bacon plus its an excuse to have a bacon butty with brown sauce obviously NEVER red sauce.
I too can remember using bacon rind when I started fishing some 60 odd years ago, and yes it did catch perch etc. The only thing I can fault with this video is that you say that you like brown sauce with your bacon - Get a grip man, have you no class? It's always Tomato Ketchup with bacon. lol Fair play to you for the way you handled and no doubt rescued that baby snake - That is something that I could not do, I am terrified of snakes and have been all my life!
Cool stuff. I'll be giving this a go as soon as the Perch season properly gets going here. Makes sense - the action must be very naturally wormey wavey slithery looking. This channel is just brilliant - look forward to each and every video. I just hope Bacon doesn't displace all the soft plastics I've amassed over the last few years. I've a feeling that although it's kind of limited to white/pink in colour it'll have the action all the soft plastics wish they had.
Poor mother snake was just on her way home with food for the little baby snake then a ginger giant comes along and moves baby snake 100 snake miles away from home
The fat on bacon cannot be described as "one of the greatest foods of all time". He says he just uses the fatty rind and makes a bacon sarnie with the rest.
It's not what you use, it's how you do that 😀 I assume it's unsmoked one in the first vid? Try streaky instead of rushers next time. You could try raw, or cooked prawns too. Yellow patches behind head means grass snake. Adder doesn't have that, has heart shaped head and zig zag pattern on top of body.
when i was a young man we used to cut the full rasher up the middle and use the full length fatty strip, fished sink and draw it was a killer pike bait esp in the winter
Can u get ...UNCLE JOSH'S PORK RINDS baits over on the other side of the pond ? Back before 2010 or so they were a HOT TICKET bait for all fishing. I used to use bacon 30 years ago for flounder fishing it was & still is a hot bait for them
Cutting the bacon fat off!! Clearly care too much about your health 😂 cracking vid bro, love the "sneak bacon into a vegans food and IT would enjoy it" 😂😂😂🤦♂️
Hi. I've tried bacon for fishing, but nothing. I'll try it in the river, though and maybe get better results. Have you thought of using worm shaped chewed chewing gum ? Ray
Entertaining video mate, as you said who can resist a bit of bacon, have you ever tried hot dog sausages for pike the is quite a few ice fishing videos where they are smashing pike on them!
Me and my brother fish the prison stretch of the River Don and have caught Pike in the margins using ham shank and after watching this we will try the bacon fat for sure 👍
Argh! Help! Inspired by your good self I've started to teach inanimate objects to swim... I've a few light lures with two sets of trebles, how can I be confident that the trebles haven't snagged each other or the lure itself during the casting? It's driving me mad - any advice very welcome!
As you like using unconventional baits, try fishing with Morio Worms. I was shown them by a mate of mine who was feeding them to his dirty great lizard. I'm going to give them a go. They're quite hard so i'll prob glue them to a hair
Tried them the other week. They don't fair well in the cold water, but did have a few perch and the odd roach. Sticking them on the hair is the way! Be careful, they nip 👍
Epic bacon bait lol. Shame about the pike mistreatment i saw dead pike on the bottom of a small canal looked like just been put there then spotted couple lure anglers blatently them not good. people who are not equipped or experienced should not target pike
Love your videos mate and keep up the good work. Always look forward to next one. One thing though, could you at least bend down to put the fish back rather than dropping them in. Cheers
I agree always treat the fish with the best care you can, but fish make bigger drops than this when they migrate through rivers, perch can survive a 50ft+ drop into water
Good work with the little grass snake mate, would have been pike or perch food for sure. What would be funny is a whole rasher of streaky bacon for a pike! Or maybe a Xmas special where you use good quality stuffing & also wrap a lure in streaky bacon like a pig in blanket haha
Haaa, goes out of way to be kind to baby snake, awesome😍then fishes with part of an animal that has the same feelings as a Spaniel, but had its throat cut to exploit its fat, not so great , but I have faith he might change with time. 💪💪♥️
What reel are you using please? Great channel, keep the videos coming 😀 Looks like a banded grass snake. Seen a few in Devon last year. They swim really well but he would a snack for many a fish
You criticised those kids for (possibly) ripping the pike's mouth with a plug. But this is the 2nd of your videos I've seen where you haven't even bothered to take a landing net with you, and both times, you've needed one. So...are you any better?
@@The_ginger_fisherman For the pike? I know you handlined it in but it would have been easier and better with a landing net. This type of fishing means you're always likely to hook a decent sized perch, pike or chub so going without a landing net is irresponsible really, especially as you upload and a lot of people will see it.
if you sneak bacon into a vegans food "it" would enjoy bacon... love it
A trick: watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.
@Timothy Wyatt Yup, have been watching on flixzone for months myself =)
Aww that is lovely behavior towards to Grass Snake, as someone who keeps snakes, this is lovely to see... wonderful!
55 years ago I used to go fishing with bacon rind. How ahead of the curve was I!
Caught my 1st ever mirror carp on ham a few weeks ago.Caught a 15-20 pounder on hawaiian pizza last sunday👍🏼
😂
I've heard of people using chips from the chippy to catch big chub
@@moistweasel6196 that’s mad just can’t imagine them staying on the hook or even surviving the cast😂
@@moistweasel6196 but I’ve known my bread to come of when float fishing with it on the surface and sometimes I just leave it because I’ve had the fish go for the bread and take the hook by accident lol
I've had countless double figure river carp on pickled onion monster munch, your welcome

Great vid, truly jealous of the snake find that would have made my year, keep em coming !
Just the sorta eccentric fishing i was in the mood for.

What you do is brilliant mate . Get yourself a camera man 👍under water footage is some of the best Iv seen. Brill....

Grass snakes bite ? I always pick up little ones like that up at my local pond I never new they could bite 😳😂
Saw my first grass snake swimming and eating trout minnows a few months ago in an almost dry creek, amazing but they do it.
Bacon fat crispy nom nom. Banging vid pal
Hi from Germany!!!
Try zu use slim bellystripes from Macerel.
You will catch all species, fantastic bait!!!
Greetings.

Could watch you all day mate ..

Bacon rind is a popular bait in Canada used it when I was there caught plenty
Just going to put it out there that this is the best fishing channel 😂👌
With Carl and Alex

I’ve used bacon in my fishing for a while now. On the hair under a size 8 hook it catches a multitude of species
One of my best Chub days, was when I used half of my bag of chips, they went bonkers for them, hahahaa🤣🤣🤣♥️
Cutting the bacon fat off!! Clearly care too much about your health 😂 cracking vid bro, love the "sneak bacon into a vegans food and IT would enjoy it" 😂😂😂🤦♂️
I really want to try this, but not sure if I can part with my bacon fat. It's the best bit.
It's a good use for the bits of bacon in the back of the fridge you forgot about and can't eat but don't want to discard.
Hi. I've tried bacon for fishing, but nothing. I'll try it in the river, though and maybe get better results. Have you thought of using worm shaped chewed chewing gum ? Ray
ARE YOU MAD?
Entertaining video mate, as you said who can resist a bit of bacon, have you ever tried hot dog sausages for pike the is quite a few ice fishing videos where they are smashing pike on them!
a blast from the past, now that is a proper old school bait👍🎣😁
good fishing..yea that was a little grass snake...cool..don't tend to bite...don't make that mistake with adders...
i gotta give this a go, proper entertaining vid bud :)
i used to catch loads of carp on bacon at a fishery near where i lived it was my secret bait in the matches
Why don't you try a Greggs vegan sausage roll? Now that would be an achievement :-)
Don't think any species deserves that kind of torture
Super panie kolego - pozdrawiam.
Me and my brother fish the prison stretch of the River Don and have caught Pike in the margins using ham shank and after watching this we will try the bacon fat for sure 👍
What time of day are you going normally?
Fatty bits are best bits 👌😂
Argh! Help! Inspired by your good self I've started to teach inanimate objects to swim... I've a few light lures with two sets of trebles, how can I be confident that the trebles haven't snagged each other or the lure itself during the casting? It's driving me mad - any advice very welcome!
Mate, you mentioned the rod but whats the real please? looks nice little bit of kit :-)
The kids in Leighton Buzzard use bacon to catch crayfish!
Missed opportunity there for a live bait 😂
I’m joking.
i still have an old glass jar that had uncle josh pork frogs in them.
Greetings from a subscriber. Everything is cool, but why was it necessary to excommunicate the snake from the house by 100 meters ??
Nice video again!
Next time bacon and egg fishing :-P

Best trout I ever caught I used bacon as bait 👍👍
Oh yes I did, it was at Logue Brook Dam, West Australia, weighed in at 5lb 10 oz and was very tasty 😊😊
@michael parker sounds like a pantomime skit😊😊😊
@michael parker no worries bro'
EVERYONE LOVES BACON 🥓 ...(all the vegans on the channel .... 😅)
Nice one, it's similar to my fishing challenge channel. 5+ :)
@michael parker 🤪🤪🤪
Epic bacon bait lol. Shame about the pike mistreatment i saw dead pike on the bottom of a small canal looked like just been put there then spotted couple lure anglers blatently them not good. people who are not equipped or experienced should not target pike
Do you cook the bacon or leave it raw? I presume cooked
Hi I was wondering what jighead you where using if you don’t mind telling me
Love your videos mate and keep up the good work. Always look forward to next one. One thing though, could you at least bend down to put the fish back rather than dropping them in. Cheers

What canal is it nice and clear water
Fishin on the beer can for Jamaicans
in all the times ive been out in the wilderness ive never seen a grass snake
Good work with the little grass snake mate, would have been pike or perch food for sure.
What would be funny is a whole rasher of streaky bacon for a pike! Or maybe a Xmas special where you use good quality stuffing & also wrap a lure in streaky bacon like a pig in blanket haha
love the vids, but not so keen on the groin shots lol
Soft bait with a scent trail?
Was it someone with blond and brown hare
What reel is that please
I wonder if they will go for vegan bacon :p
I wouldn't say so all that vegan food tastes like crap 😂😂
If its vegan it ain't bacon!
Great vid mate and what reel u useing
If I comment on every video and watch all ads will you do more videos?
Wait did the kids ask you if you caught anything
I'm afraid either me or the dog would eat the bacon fat...I'll stick to worm
caught lots of pike in carlingwark loch in castle douglas on float fished bacon rashers
Thats a baby adder snake 🐍
I'm curious... Do bass even exist anywhere in Europe?
Spain and France. US pilots tried to stock bass in WW2, but they are all dead now.
hi its a nice place were your fishing could you share it with me many thanks or could u teach me
Guessing it was SMOKED BACON.? 🤔
Its the only way
I like very nice
I like your hair
I floated down on a size ten just under the surface and caught a tench
You floated down, and caught a tench...so you caught the tench on yourself?🤔😕
Fresh water fish dame near eats anything
Haaa, goes out of way to be kind to baby snake, awesome😍then fishes with part of an animal that has the same feelings as a Spaniel, but had its throat cut to exploit its fat, not so great , but I have faith he might change with time. 💪💪♥️

Looks like a banded grass snake. Seen a few in Devon last year. They swim really well but he would a snack for many a fish
Your water is so clear my canal is dirty as hell
Bacon fat is the best part but only if its crispy to the point where it ruins the bacon, so I cut my fat off and start frying that first.
Doh! Wait till end of vid next time! 😄
Me and the grandson
What about these then?

Always dice the fat of my bacon and use it for eels
Fishing rod from Poland Jaxon arcadia
Looks like a grass snake judging from the white around it’s neck
I'm not wasting bacon on no fish!
How are the Muslims supposed to use it tho
I like bacon fat but it needs to be crispy
Everyone loves bacon?!
Stop throwing fish!
How is you're canal this clear!
Chalk rivers act as a filter for the water and less pollution than canals
You gave the fish salmonella 😂
Maybe you should tighten your drag
Tryed n works
I have catch some 4 pound chub on bacon
Not a grass snake thats a ring neck snake
No. Video from England - no ring neck snakes here.
