Big Tench From Big Pits | Daniel Woolcott | Specimen Tench Fishing

Daniel Woolcott, all-round big fish specialist and winner of multiple weekly Drennan cup awards goes in search of big tench from a large, low stock gravel pit. Daniel talks us through how he goes about locating and targeting the tench on these rock-hard, and what can be very daunting venues.

This video is quite simply, one of the very best I have ever have the pleasure of watching. Thank you!

[@DrennanTackleTV]

Thank you, Rob. Very happy you enjoyed it soo much. More to come!

[@jovanjancev1433]

I agree

[@fin1493]

I've watched this video so many times and I keep coming back, absolutely sublime.

[@acidman1675]

That 12.6 was a stunner - Stoked for you.!!

[@ml2799]

This is where Angling becomes Art.

[@merlin7654]

Always something magical about catching a nice tench, nothing can beat it. Always been a winter fish for me, start trying to target them in late October when it's cold and grey, cup of tea, few smokes, good stuff

[@DrennanTackleTV]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@abrayshaw1657]

Great filming and narration there Daniel. Top Tenching and a superb pb.

[@mattiemclean9882]

Its funny how I spent so much of my youth trying to catch tench and bream... so many hours, early mornings, late nights, trying all my local rivers and lakes, spotting them in the close season... without much success to be honest, so I stuck with roach, perch and rudd etc. The minute I started carp fishing, I couldn't cast a rod out without catching a big old bream or tench!! Got to laugh really!

[@themowerman1]

That stopper on the line with putty tip has solved my problem You sir are a legend 🙌

[@stringsgb8833]

The colour of that fish is stunning. I would give anything to catch a double figure tench. Amazing capture, well done mate 👌

[@peterdobbs6700]

Many tench sessions myself, many tench videos watched, but never seen a tench so stunning as this. The colour is insane! Well worth the many sessions of blanks!

[@WilCr1]

Been fishing for a very long time, but never seen a tench 'head and shoulder' out of the lake like on this footage. Lovely stuf, many thanks!

[@christopherturnbull1267]

[@stuartnewman6968]

Drennan have a history of making great films and documentaries. Not surprising the quality of the video.

[@DrennanTackleTV]

Wow, thanks!

[@bluerobbo351]

Lovely jubbly,enjoyed the short film can't beat spring for the tinca

[@nicktrow7605]

Cracking film, got to say some of the best editing I’ve seen in a fishing vid. Well done with the gorgeous pink PB you netted too, what a beautiful fish. Tench have been my fave since being a kid, there was a small relatively unfished pond close to where I used to live and oh those summer evenings when I would net 4 or. 5 good sized tench (4-5lb). The pond is still there but haven’t a clue if it’s still fished or those beautiful fish still reside in there, looks completely overgrown with weed etc now which is such a shame but maybe one day I’ll go and pop a line in just out of curiosity. Thanks again for the vid mate. 🎣👍

[@ianchappytube]

A cracking job, sumptuously filmed. Well done!

[@DrennanTackleTV]

[@johnfryer3149]

Brilliant filming. Great video. We’re you fishing a Farnham & district water at the beginning?? Looks the same rig that Duncan uses 😆😆 12lb 6oz. Dream fish. 😃👍👍

[@DrennanTackleTV]

Thanks for the comment. No, this was a different undisclosed venue.

[@FScully100]

Super looking fish

[@AndreasLiljegren]

Great!

[@ChrisYid]

This really looks like one of the pits next to the M20. I know that has some huge Tench in there. Stillwater = Tench Rivers = Barbel Best of British stunning fish

[@davidflynn666]

I echo the sentiment a bit bit nothing beats a big roach.

[@h.c.weldingandfabrication949]

Right. We need some new Drennan tench bream rods out now, and some proper barbel rods if you’ve got time :) Drennan and tench go together like, well Drennan and tench

[@JP-zy2fi]

Agreed I see the korum neoteric fs in use in the video witch isn't a problem as there nice rods..but drennan have produced even better. I've seen sum of the old series 7 specialists and martin bowler rods go for double what the cost new its the same with the float rods. Other than the twin tip duo's what else ...drennan we need more specialist rods choice...

[@davidgoudie9879]

If you want massive tench, fish railway lake in snodland, or leisure sports no2 next to it, no one fishes them anymore very famous waters, there are record tench in both lakes, look it up

[@tonyrobinson3808]

what a tench brill

[@jamesburton668]

How do they get that red colour? I seen Jim Shelley catch a common up in Cambridgeshire that was really red n he thought it was to do with the blood worm. I’ve caught tench that are jet black but never red

[@alainpryt9641]

Superbe des tanches énormes 👏👍🇫🇷

[@maximlipchenko6277]

🔥🔥🔥

[@tomwinterfishing9065]

Nice☺️

[@DrennanTackleTV]

Thanks Tom.

[@nikm9637]

Someone tell me the I.d of the intro track please I remember this from years back but I can’t put my finger on it . 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@samgarrod4781]

Fave fish

[@ApoloniuszMusialek]

What a fish

[@hownowbrowntrouttasmania7389]

That's a thumper!!!!!!!

[@2bsure407]

Bet he catches his fair share of carp aswell

[@specialized500]

I wish they would say at least what part of the country they were fishing in . I tend to turn off if I don't know.

[@harleyhatchett9771]

Is that big pit

[@OkazNaPokaz]

How do English anglers use maggots and don't bother of little fishes. When I use maggots I can't get rid of liitle roaches and breams. Tench can't even get to the bait. BTW I love tench - kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3_FaK1om9VohpY

[@forestcityfishing4749]

Must be nice...we're not allowed to fish in gravel pits, culverts or storm drains here. Everything is illegal here in Canada...no wonder all the best people have left!

[@forestcityfishing4749]

You people spend way too much time and money. Its not that hard to catch these...

[@cliffordlee1898]

What a quality video excellent audio,well done Dan👏👏👏👏♥️♥️

[@strickostricko]

Without looking you’re definitely not British.
