Epic tench fishing session on a stunning new lake

- As a new member of Farnham Angling Society I couldn't wait to try one of the many new waters available to me. It's a sunny Sunday afternoon in April and I'm on the banks of the beautiful Stockbridge Pond in Surrey.
It's an old estate lake with a good stock of tench and crucians but, as with any maiden outing on a new venue, I didn't really know what to expect and set out to fish for anything I could tempt on a waggler or handmade porcupine float.
Little did I know it would turn out to be a red letter day, as hard fighting tench kept falling to my casters throughout a special spring afternoon. With lovely scenery and plenty of action to come, sit back, relax and enjoy.

Hi Jon, a lovely little water, great video, thanks mate, tough one, but your fishing and thats what its all about, the wildlife, and clear the mind, tight lines mate.
Cheers
Gutted for you losing that Carp, but those Tench were absolute beauts. Very enjoyable watch, looking forward to the next.
Ahhh thanks! Glad you enjoyed and always nice to get a comment. I was gutted about the carp, too! A proper lump of a common from a water that’s not known for them. Hope you enjoy some of the other content on the channel.
Wow! What a session!
Thank you for the shout out!
Looking forward to the next one! 😀
Well deserved shout out 👍🎣
Hi, enjoyed the video, sad to say that since FAS added the extra carp and "Brown Goldfish", the Crucians, which were such a great part of fishing this lake appear to have vanished. The condition of the tench, although still there in great numbers, also seems to have deteriorated. At one time, not so many years ago, there were good amounts of roach and rudd to be had, which contributed to a good mixed bag. It is till a lovely place to fish though
Oh man, I would have loved a few roach and rudd sprinkled in! And crucians of course. Talking to the fisheries manager recently, he said cormorants had taken many of the crucians and some of the smaller tench did have beak marks. But trying to see the positive side, that kind of predation does allow the bigger fish to keep getting bigger. Thanks for commenting.
Thanks for upload. My kind of fishing
Thanks for the comment as always mate 🙏
Try to film the float going under a few times, would make for more of a enjoyable viewing. Well done though on the captures!!! 😊👍👍👍
Cheers and a fair point. I do try to do that in a few of my films but I was catching at distance in this session and trying to film a bite on a dotted down waggler at 20m - on basic gear at least - is pretty tricky. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙏
What a lovely place you've to fish there mate,plenty of waterfowl and other wildlife plus you've got plenty of them er. fISH .looks great.
Would like to get back 👍🎣
With 30+ new waters to try out you should be busy for a while. I looked into joining Farnham a few years back, but I couldn't justify the cost as I could only get out maybe a half dozen time a year, and that was with restricted transport as well. Perhaps one day that dream can come true. Anyway, great time among the tech and nice to watch. Take care. TTFN.
Thanks and I know what you mean about not having enough time to do it justice! Will try another water tomorrow… 🤞
I am the same! As I fish on a tight budget and I don't drive
Glad that bit of information I gave you made your day. I did give a little bit of applause when you had your first tinca. Any member of the Tenchfishers will help anytime we can. Try Mill Lane for much bigger tinca's.
Many thanks, Tinca Steve! You definitely helped get me off to a good start on Stockbridge and I loved the friendly advice - you can often judge a club by its members, even if us anglers are generally standup people. My tench PB is still pretty low and I’d love to try Mill Lane some time.
Really enjoying your sessions, especially as I’m unable to get out at the moment. Also highlights the real joys of fishing ‘ups and downs’ lost fish being one example of the latter which is as you described it ‘gutted’. Thank you so much for sharing.
👩🌾🙏🫶🎣🌅👍
Absolute pleasure and I’m sorry to hear you can’t get out at the moment - I know what that feels like and it’s even worse in spring and summer. Hope you enjoy some of the other videos on the channel and I REALLY hope you can get back on the bank before too long. Thanks for watching and for the lovely comment 🎣
@@themagicoffishing Hi John, Fortunately only temporarily, maybe only a couple of weeks, but your videos both encourage and gratify that deep longing to be back on the bank again. You capture the essence of fishing, which is a real gift, makes one feel that they’re right there with you experiencing those ‘ups and downs’ that are so much a part of this amazing hobby. Keep um coming. And thanks for taking the time out (your commitment and dedication!) to share the experience with fellow (esses!!) lovers of fishing and the great outdoors that captivates and draws us back to the bank. Tight lines! 👩🌾🫶🐟🎣🌅👍
Enjoyed that, John
Thanks!
What an incredible session, I’ll settle for one half as active tomorrow. Well in 👍🏼
Tight lines! 🎣
This was a great watch! I love my tench fishing! Tight lines on the FAS venues! I wish i could afford the membership, but its too expensive, i fish on a tight budget, and I dont drive! But I am a member of godalming, which is a lot cheaper and easier to get foo
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done. Stckbridge is special. But wait till you get into the huge shoals of tench in Frensham GP. And yes to the other comments FAS is getting close to silly money unless your in a carp syndicate.
Yep, it was a treat from me to me, as I’ve admired all their waters from afar for many years now. You certainly seem to get value for money even if it’s not the cheapest of clubs. Can’t wait to try a few more places before long. Thanks for commenting.
Only trouble with Frensham Great Pond is the parking. They couldn't make you park farther away from the water unless you want to pay the parking charges as well.
Frensham has suffered badly from algae bloom the last few seasons and with all the rain we’ve had I’m sure it’s bound to happen again this season,and yes the lake was totally spoilt with the introduction of carp killed of the Crucians
A couple of my old fishing friends and one of their dads had over 330 tench between them in a morning on the old Diana lake bushy park Hampton Court
Sounds amazing 🤩
Its great waggler fishing for Tench like that. I have always enjoyed that type of fishing. I think with the Tench being in the deeper water further out the Method feeder set up would have been very succesful but no where near as enjoyable. Great video m8 I really enjoyed watching you fishing.
Cheers David! Agree - method or even bomb and pellet might have scored but not as enjoyable as wag n caster. Would have liked to fish the margins but you’ve got to be where the fish want to be. Hope you enjoy some of the other vids on the channel and thanks for commenting.
New to the channel, found this video on an advert! Haven't fished for years but still have my gear, might have to start again this summer. Any videos or advice on fishing the Thames?
Hiya Paul and thanks for dropping by (and commenting). Much appreciated. Hope you enjoy some of the other content on the channel - there are loads of local waters featured but, as yet, none on the Thames! Like you, I hope to learn more and then fish it this summer, so there will hopefully be some content coming before too long and stay tuned…
