Hi Chris, I've just had an hour on my local canal fishing like this. First time I've tried it but was so much fun and had plenty of perch with the odd roach thrown in for good measure. Thanks for sharing the video
I bought a light rod recently 2-8gr. Only tried it once but I already love it. Usually Im fishing a 5-20gr setup but 90% of my baits are in the 5gr range so I feel more comfortable with the lighter one. Sadly its getting really cold, fish are passive and here the season for trout is over, so no trout fishing allowed. Might switch to top water bread and catch some chubs.
Absolutely fantastic video as always Chris. Well done on the barbel on such light set up mate. Really look forward to all your uploads. Can't wait for the next one 👍
What an awesome vid Chris. Those Perch were all beautiful fish and fought well, but that bonus Barbel really gave you a good test. What a fantastic fish. Simple methods are still the best.☺
nice to see that rod in action, i got myself the one size up (3-14 gr.) due to the fact im fishing a lot of rivers where a 8 grams lure wont make it all the way down. Mine is this years xmas present from my lovely wife.
Really enjoyed video Chris,I always bring worms as back up.barbel was amazing bonus,we don't have barble over here, merry Christmas to you and your family.
Another great video. I recently got a custom 2-8 gram rod and have only caught pike on it so far but what fun it was on the ultralight. Hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas.
What a cracking Xmas present of a session. Two absolute beauties - well caught! If i could only have one bait, it would always be the old garden lob worm 👍 Merry Xmas!
Cracking fishing . I always see these shallow clear areas and convince myself as I can't see the fish they can't be there. You prove otherwise I guess they dart out from cover ? Anyway I ll be off to fish in the shallows next time
I put on float if you tie a hevey weight then up the float till you findvthe bottom.. Then it's a split shot 10 inches from hook a worm and a maggot. Cast... Feed the float and wow your on the bottom were the perch feed. Loch bunachton bunachton Moor inverness. Avredge 3 lb.. Big 5 lots of 3 ilb
Chris, I have followed you a while and see that your interaction is sporadic. As a fellow ginger with a young family I admire your ability to manage the balance. What I would like to know is; what make are you glasses in this video?
Glad you noticed this too. He has little respect for fish, its all about trying to become famous these days. He smacks his camera any harder (he thinks he's some rapper from the states on MTV) he'll be needing a new camera. Oooh he won't like that!
Hey mate we have redfin in Australia. I can walk 5 min to catch them. Introduced here in the 1860s. They sent out 10 fish and 7 died. So all our millions are descended from 3 fish! Unbelievable!!!
Great video, love watching all news where you jig worms as you never know what the next fish will be ( proven at the end with the barbel lol ) also I was just wondering if u had and bait casting rods around the 40-80g casting weight that you know of for a reasonable price??
Chris - some beautiful fish there - however: Some of your fish 'care' leaves a lot to be desired - for example: 04:34 - Your second perch - thrown into a landing net and quite clearly hits a root coming out from the bank 04:57 - Whilst playing your 3rd Perch, you can see the 2nd one still laying on the top until at least 05:02 - it only moves when the ripples of the 3rd fish triggers it. Now, unless you caught that 3rd fish on the next cast, and there's a possibility you did - even if that happened, that 2nd Perch, having been thrown onto a root stump, could have been laying there for at least 2 minutes? 05:24 - The 3rd Perch is thrown into the landing net and quite clearly hits the roots coming out from the bank. I am just thankful that they all swam away okay... You are a great angler Chris - but please take better care of your catch - and maybe treat Perch with the same respect you showed the Barbel...
Your so lucky that you have such awesome canals and small rivers stocked with decent amounts of fish!
Ikr
Fabulous stuff. Your enthusiasm is like drug. A good drug.
Hi Chris, I've just had an hour on my local canal fishing like this. First time I've tried it but was so much fun and had plenty of perch with the odd roach thrown in for good measure. Thanks for sharing the video
the way that barbell presented its fins is insane
I bought a light rod recently 2-8gr. Only tried it once but I already love it.

Even now you continue to amaze me Chris, Merry Christmas to you and all your family
First time I went fishing I pulled out a budgie cage. I was delighted. It had a couple of perches in it.😏
You're getting coal for Christmas....

Hi Chris enjoyed your video can you tell me did you buy your worms as finding it hard to get them in the garden.
Have a great Christmas mate...
You ar the master. Incredible. Wiem on the jig Hook ??
Any tips on catching the big perch in my local river? they're pretty pressured with lures
Mega that mate 🦾🦾
Great fishing 👍
Love watching your vids. Just treated myself to a 1-9g rod. Can I ask what size reel your using here please?
Mate where are these little rivers and steams you fish?? I have to travel absolutely miles all the time to get any decent fishing. Great content mate
Top video!!! Love it!!🎣🎣😳
Legend 👊👊👍 great video
Did you find any difference in bites using the two style of hooks?
Wow ,41 centimeters and 39. We don't have those in Pennsylvania. 13 inches is big here
Which one is stronger fighter big pike or big perch??🎣🇱🇹
Hi there have you done a video with berkly Gulp Worms if so where can i find it
Tht was cool. Chris, you don't have zander fish there? I never saw you catch any.
Merry Christmas
Where its that plece? Can u tell me pls 🙏
You should do another tench video when the time comes
I put on float if you tie a hevey weight then up the float till you findvthe bottom.. Then it's a split shot 10 inches from hook a worm and a maggot. Cast... Feed the float and wow your on the bottom were the perch feed. Loch bunachton bunachton Moor inverness. Avredge 3 lb.. Big 5 lots of 3 ilb
This channel is amazing
Chris, I have followed you a while and see that your interaction is sporadic. As a fellow ginger with a young family I admire your ability to manage the balance. What I would like to know is; what make are you glasses in this video?
I could only dream of catching a specimen over 2lb In my local areas of Norfolk wish I could join ya for a few hours man 🎣🙌
Awesome buddy..
Monster fish i never catch anything but if i do im so happy even tho its the tiniest perch ever or a goby
Letting a fish slide backwards into a keep net!!
Glad you noticed this too. He has little respect for fish, its all about trying to become famous these days. He smacks his camera any harder (he thinks he's some rapper from the states on MTV) he'll be needing a new camera. Oooh he won't like that!
first love your vids and you and first like WOOOOO
Massive ginger beard! "Men Only" beard fertilizer?
Hey mate we have redfin in Australia. I can walk 5 min to catch them.
Introduced here in the 1860s. They sent out 10 fish and 7 died. So all our millions are descended from 3 fish! Unbelievable!!!
Wow, awesome. I'd be absolutely shitting myself trying to land a barbel on that gear :D
Let's gooooooooooooo 🏃♂️🕺
the censored bit it just got me laughing but merrry xmas is 2 days
Everything love's a worm cracking fish
nice!
Great video, love watching all news where you jig worms as you never know what the next fish will be ( proven at the end with the barbel lol ) also I was just wondering if u had and bait casting rods around the 40-80g casting weight that you know of for a reasonable price??
Westin w3 rods are brilliant for there price range and there's plenty of weights to choose from 👍
That's an absolute dream catching a barbel jigging 👌
In Spaink thee catch them on 10cm hardbaits so the pleasure of spinfishing with the power of a Barbel
use barbless hooks.... much easier
Ive been hunting barbel without success.... Once caught a 35cm one but thats it hahaha
That's it keep him in the net so he doesn't go back and tell the other fish he got caught nice.
🌟 🎅 👍 ❤️
