Are there pike left in this ABANDONED canal?

I drove past this canal the other week and seen rich vegetation, overgrown banks and fish topping. I made sure to save it on google maps! So in this video, we are heading out to explore and figure out if anything still lives in here.

Hi guys, what a blast this exploration was. Just thought I'd mention that the lure I used is called the Manni lemon drunk bait NOT Miami green!🤣 Enjoy :) Hit the LIKE for more of this style of content!

Good video mate I can tell how much hard work must have gone into that one both with the fishing, filming and editing 👍

[@pikeandperch]

Cheers George, I owe you one ;)

[@FDGRebel]

Fantastic vid, started to look at a few canals round my way here in NI, thanks for the lure tips and good luck

[@pikeandperch]

Thank you! Best of luck I’m happy I got you inspired to get out🤝

Well done mate good video! 🔥🎣

Thank you Dec 😊

[@ashleychandler4024]

Great video marra. Don't be too disheartened , the locks you were fishing are dead. I fished them for years on and off, the only thing in em are a few la'l roach that get washed down. Best time to fish that " abandoned " stretch is autumn/ early winter, but all the big pike are gone now, but there is a chance of a half decent perch from certain areas if you know where to look. Tight lines buddy.

[@pikeandperch]

Ahh thank you for saying! That’s all I spotted in that stretch too, cool place to fish though. Tight lines to you too🐟

good video friend and very good pike Greetings from Spain

[@pikeandperch]

Appreciate it, hello from England :)

[@user-wi4wd1lp3b]

Hi….loved the content btw,I use to live quite local to the location you fished and although I’ve never really fished it myself….I know if you go further up the canal from them locks I’ve seen some huge pike in there….there are also massive grass carp

[@pikeandperch]

Thank you :) I’ll keep that in mind!

[@insearchofperch8170]

Lot of effort went into that. Grind it out and the results come 👍🏻👊🏻

[@pikeandperch]

[@TrueNorthOutdoorAdventures]

That looked like a LOT of work... cool adventure though!

[@pikeandperch]

Indeed it was but loving the adventure is what kept me going!

My favourite part of this is the trusty Aldi fishing bag, can’t beat it 😂👌👌

[@pikeandperch]

😂😂 you can’t beat it

[@tymphuket7243]

We used to fish ere and get loads of pike,scum frogs are best,then the Johnnie's netted and long lined it same as glasson dock,there's a few jacks left now,if they move the weed it will get netted again. Gud luk. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇮🇱🇨🇷🎣

[@pikeandperch]

Cool to know! Thanks, don’t think I’ll be rushing back haha

[@TheSebtrain]

Quality video mate , what was that baitcaster you were using??

[@pikeandperch]

Thank you mate, Abu Garcia Pro Max PMAX3-L. I've had it for years now, hasn't missed a beat!

[@Paladin70]

Glad you figured out your initial f**ked up math. Very cool fishing though, pike are fun to catch. 👍🏼

[@pikeandperch]

😂

[@seanfraustus]

Sorry I woke you up early that day by calling 😂 I was hoping Miami Green would have helped make up for it!

[@pikeandperch]

You have to put your 50p in don’t you ;)😂

[@AlexisDrake]

I also have found the old call of "here pikey pikey" seems to work wonders.

[@pikeandperch]

Haha!! We’ll try anything won’t we😅

good video mate! Nothing like a bit of jungle warfare!

@@TheEssexAnglerYT hahaha that is very true!

[@navid-abbasi-fishing]

thanks for making this video. I saw u pushed something on ur cam after each attack. what was that for?

[@pikeandperch]

I’m glad you enjoyed it! I was using a setting called hindsight on my gopro. This setting allows you to not be filming the whole time and use loads of battery but when you press the button it automatically records the last 30 seconds of the ‘clicked’ event. Does that make sense?😅

[@navid-abbasi-fishing]

I got it, think it filming whole time but delete everything before 30s, just saving memory card@@pikeandperch

[@pikeandperch]

@@navid-abbasi-fishing yeah exactly :)

[@lexingtonlad5745]

Every time I say yes when I hook into a pike I lose it 😂

[@pikeandperch]

haha! You know what to stop doing then ;)

[@tymphuket7243]

hi what protected the fish was the weed,try the canal at selby,scum frogs,very weedy.

[@pikeandperch]

Awesome!

[@cartergrennn2056]

Great vid, you look old for 10!

[@pikeandperch]

😂 Noted to self to get better at maths!!

[@77esto]

Whar kind of lures are you using? Names please.. GREAT VIDEO..

[@pikeandperch]

Thank you :) Lures as followed: - Kofi perch 7cm (Real perch pattern) in video and 18cm Firetiger in thumbnail - Kofi Bleak shad 6cm (Real roach in vid) - 16cm Manni Magnebitter drunk bait (the lure that did all the work!) All can be found via this link: www.myfishinglures.co.uk/collections/lmab

[@a.r.t.4611]

Cannals are dug out, not naturally formed.

[@pikeandperch]

That is true, this one already had a natural flow of water and was kept as is with a wall and increase of water in it. Not all of it but the stretch at the very start was.

[@Debo10161]

Head height with you? Can’t be that over grown then 😏

[@pikeandperch]

😢 Is three foot not tall?

[@kechocker]

Good video, but it hurts so much to see you not close the bail manually and let it close while spinning the handle :( Aint too healthy for the reel. Otherwise, great vid!

[@pikeandperch]

I'll keep it in mind for future vids so you keep watching ;)

[@paulgallacher8719]

What happened to the lmab shit bud not seen the big man posting for a minute ???

Hi Paul, all will be clear if you check out my recent video - Whats been happening?! Channel update.
