Must be the best under water video ever, got to be worth 5stars, this is fishing paradise, where are all the boats, dog walkers, cyclists, dirty muddy 2ft deep stretches I have to fish (that’s the Llangollen canal in Shropshire by the way) 2lb of bits is average for a three hour evening session with a 8oz fish being the catch of the night if I’m lucky! Please adopt me and I will be more faithful than than a dog if you take me for walkies down your canal. Best of luck and keep catching and filming. Graham.
That’s one clear canal, all our canals local to me have about 6 inches of visibility and last time I tried to film with a GoPro it was just completely black 😂👍🏻
Chris - I once watched 3 Tench in gin clear canal water pick up every piece of 'free' bread flake there was whilst ignoring mine - Tench are smart fish!
Some amazing shots, huge amount of effort gone into making the video so very well done for making such an interesting insight into the world under the surface.
I really enjoyed the fishing. I like what I see underwater. It is excellent. I also like to see you catch some different fish, like bream and tench, two fish we don't have in America. It is nice to see something different. Keep up the good work. Thanks
Absolutely brilliant footage of how fish feed and our presumably good idea of how we think they feed, the camera never lies ,once again I thank you for sharing your experience and all the hard work you put in to this video
These under water filming you do are amazing, Thank you so much for these video's you make for us, I'm looking forward to more pike under Water footage video's :).
That's such cool footage. Always kinda see tench as the old wise fish ! Really enjoyed watching this :) I'm definitely intrigued by the fish avoiding the bright bait
What an amazing video. I wish our canals in sandbach where this clear. Thanks for all your uploads! as ever I look forward to the next one. So please crack straight into it 👊
13:16 Geeze, what a grumpy looking bugger. That's the problem with fish these days, they don't realise what a great life they have and take it all for granted. Great video!
Great video once again! Quality ia good and the content good, all around very good. Extra plus for your skills and dedication to fishing. Looking forward to the next video :)
I have never had much luck using bright baits in clear water either. I really do think water clarity plays a part when it comes to hookbait brightness. Dark colours in clear water always do better for me.
Enjoyed that Chris I tench fish on a feeder in a canal and I use ringers chocolate orange wafters they are bright onrage and the tench love them different canals different baits they also like the brown 8ml pellets 🎣👊💯
Great film I fish a small bit of peporami or small wafter but have started putting the bait in the feeder first . seems to trip up the fish as they don't see the hook bait.
I match fish for carp/bream on the method feeder and find the best hook bait is banded hard carp pellet, I’ve tried all sorts of stand out hook baits but using a 6mm or 8mm the same pellet as the micros out fishes them all every time.
That’s a double negative…if you “haven’t seen nothing” that actually means you *have* seen something. You mean you haven’t seen *anything* Class dismissed 🤣
Wish I knew which areas of the canal you fish! I struggle to find tench but those bream are everywhere. Way I see it the fish are after your feed so anything close to what your feed is they'll take, they aren't exactly looking for oddly coloured things although sometimes they do take the bright stuff. Just seems to depend on the day
Share your pain re the Rudd. In the 90's fishing the Kennett when it was at it's peak, the Barbel used to go mad for double caster fished over hemp but the venue was full of Dace between 2-4oz, they used to hit you at every opportunity. The meat would pick up the odd fish but the big bag sessions were always on the caster. My best ever session (Including my PB) I just had to keep catching Dace with the odd Barbel hitting me in between, fish a cast stuff with the torpedoes coming when they got to the bait before the silvers
i find myself using less bright baits especially pop ups as time goes on only time is winter when my target fish carps eyesight gets worse with the cold water otherwise i find them not too great only in low visibility water.. just use a more attractive hookbait to the feed around it and theyll find it easy enough..had one year using chicken fridge raders as hookbait and had one of the best years I've had
After watching your videos since last year I finally decided to dust off my feeder rod and start river and small lake fishing again rather than chancing large carp which can bring many blank sessions. I found a little hidden pond at the back of a farm and the fishing was amazing. Robin red pellets, groundbait and hookables got the carp, bream, roach and perch feeding fast for 5 hours then a massive pike turned up. Ruined everything.
Amazing footage love watching the videos av just started course fishing and there's lots of different reels to choose from what would you recommend going to be mainly feeder rod 10ft
Please put a bunch of worms on an see what happens on the underwater camera , do they actually bury themselfs into the silt or do they clawl accross the bottom an drag the hook into the silt an mess up the presentation or does it actually actract the fish even more when they see worms trying to get into the silt or gravel or whatever your fishing over
Have you tried using a length of Coax cable to view live footage to your phone from under the water using the GoPro app Without the length of cable you’ll lose the signal as soon as it goes under water but if you tape one end to the back of your phone and the other end across the top of the GoPro you’ll get a live signal no problem
Great video work but a off topic question. All my local clubs have a no lure/spinner rule so do you have this where you spin Or are the rules different in your part of the country ?
I've finally started fishing again after many years of life getting in the way. It's going really well, 3 trips in the last 2 weeks, nearly 30hrs total fishing time.. and absolutely zero fish 😢😢Ive literally forgotten everything 😂
could you help me understand how you fish underwater please . i do have a go pro camera but scared of getting it wet and also how do you recover the camera do you use a stick of some design or fishing line ??
I am sure you are the ‘next generation’ angler that mainstream TV needs. Brilliant work.
Correct observing..oOoh it's a bream!.. Those classic , oft uttered .....words!...
Great footage!...nice meditation moment..

My local canal is the same. It’s like being in space once you get the camera two foot down.
Lovely fish to watch 😮 rudd . Glistening. Wow. And the tench
Chris - I once watched 3 Tench in gin clear canal water pick up every piece of 'free' bread flake there was whilst ignoring mine - Tench are smart fish!
Lovely to see such beautiful fish. Especially the roach. Cracking colours.
Some amazing shots, huge amount of effort gone into making the video so very well done for making such an interesting insight into the world under the surface.
Wow great footage, the rudd look magnificent in this footage
It's amazing how fast they react to the hook.
Great shots of the Tench burying their heads in the bottom.

Brilliant filming, quite an eye opener.
Absolutely amazing footage Chris. And you learned something new about high colour baits too. ☺
Brilliant video well worth the wait .fish are not as stupid as we think .Think like a FISH !
I'm amazed at just how many fish there were, I never realised there would be so many.
Really great filming mate, very interesting, thank you.
Beautiful shots, is there a chance that we could get a behind the scenes video showing your underwater camera placement and gear used?
I’d really appreciate this.
That's such cool footage. Always kinda see tench as the old wise fish ! Really enjoyed watching this :) I'm definitely intrigued by the fish avoiding the bright bait
Great to talk to you again. Another cracking underwater video. Thanks for sharing. Phil.
Nice Tench Chris and some lovely underwater coverage 👍
Some amazing footage here mate, so interesting to watch in so many ways. Really looking forward to the Pike footage too - all the best, cheers Chris!
What an amazing video. I wish our canals in sandbach where this clear. Thanks for all your uploads! as ever I look forward to the next one. So please crack straight into it 👊

Oh, I'd love to see a scaled down chod rig in the same swim... great footage, completely captivating!
Great video Chris!
Cannot wait for the next video!
Cool vid mate, one of my dream fish a tench on canal, ive seen one feeding near my spot so i know they're there 🎣
Alright geeza thanks for sharing 👍 iv had tench from the grand union canal West London way upto 11lb 4oz.. they narth get big
A very interesting video love the underwater camera work it's nice to see you enjoy your fishing take care.
Fabulous footage, well done mate.
I have never had much luck using bright baits in clear water either. I really do think water clarity plays a part when it comes to hookbait brightness. Dark colours in clear water always do better for me.
Me too I've watched barbel spook on meat put a black boilli on and had 3 in 3 casts.
Great session, brilliant video, night worms worked best for me this summer
Enjoyed that Chris I tench fish on a feeder in a canal and I use ringers chocolate orange wafters they are bright onrage and the tench love them different canals different baits they also like the brown 8ml pellets 🎣👊💯

fantastic work
another great video, you really need to contact mainstream tv, there's nothing out there like this, the new john wilson.
Amazing footage Chris!
Best fishing channel on you tube
Amazing content as always. I really appreciate how much effort you put into these videos, they're amazing.
Nonsense
@@matimus100 What?
Great footage
Great film thanks
Thanks for this! I'm fishing method all the time
Fascinating! Thanks a lot!!
Every day is a school day :) Thanks again!!
Was great again if not amazing! 😊
Incredible footage and extremely useful to see the feeding habits. As always, great work 👍🏻
Big old tench!!!! And bream!
I match fish for carp/bream on the method feeder and find the best hook bait is banded hard carp pellet, I’ve tried all sorts of stand out hook baits but using a 6mm or 8mm the same pellet as the micros out fishes them all every time.
another great video
Great footage, love tench 🥰
Brilliant video
Can you do a video on trotting the river ? From setting up the line, gauging depth in the river etc
Lovely vid mate cracking
Great video mate
I love ur videos and I’m carp fishing right now and I havnt seen nothing 😂😂👍🏻 never give up man
That’s a double negative…if you “haven’t seen nothing” that actually means you *have* seen something. You mean you haven’t seen *anything*
Class dismissed 🤣

Great video thanks for making them 🎣👍
Love this cheers pal good education ❤it.
superb as always cris
How are you going to get on now they have banned E bikes on the canal systems
Looking forward to the pike vid 🎣👍🏼
Surely a career in wildlife filming beckons you obviously have knowledge and talent

Could you explain how do you set the swim up with the camera?

They won’t be going to far if u got a lead on they just sit there and wiggle
Do it yourself 😂
@@neininmen5442 i aint got a underwater camera or waters that are that clear this time of year to see for myself an neithers alot of other people
What camera did u use.
That was truly fascinating. Thank you. (subbed) ATB MMMD
I like black or dark brown zig rig foam or white but only with bread on the feeder.

best under water footage, also is piking in this chilled out weather any good (on lures as i know its wayyy to early for deadbaits)
Was that the marine halibut Robin reds by any chance? Had good results on those.
i do like big bream, i fish stourport on severn and had bream up to 8 lb
Daft question maybe, but how do you place the camera in the correct position - is it dangling from a pole & you cast just beyond the tip?
What bite alarm has the bird tone,6:18
Friggin Rudd lol.
Thanks
I've finally started fishing again after many years of life getting in the way. It's going really well, 3 trips in the last 2 weeks, nearly 30hrs total fishing time.. and absolutely zero fish 😢😢Ive literally forgotten everything 😂

Wot canal was this filmed at
Nice one ❤

I’m off for 3 days and off up your way hopefully bump into you
Wonderful
6:50 That pretty big for any Canal to be honest.
