[@ryanhewitt99]

Excellent content again and great news on the shop plus more fishing time and videos...can't wait🎣 some good fish there guys,tight lines

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks ryan its like a dream for me feels a bit strange but sure i can adjust 🙏😊 couple of really nice fish in this video hoping for more in the future fingers crossed ive a feeling im going to be a busy man 👌🙂

[@Wheredafish]

Fabulous You Tube. Lovely to meet Matt. Congratulations on your semi retirement to the "good life!!!" Lovely to see Catherine. I L❤VE BREAM!! I call them the "ladies fish" as they don't put up much of a fight. Plus it was the first "big" UK fish I caught after living in the USA as a concert pianist for 26 years. Any fish caught is a positive with me. Best wishes Pauline (PJ). Xxxx

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Pauline, great to hear from you, I hope you had a good New Year. Thanks for your kind comment, Matt is a good mate and I think it's looking like we'll be out bream fishing sometime in 2025! Tight lines for 2025 👍

[@keithmercer-t1k]

Happy New Year to you both and I think the emphasis is the Happy bit with the great news and well done to you both well deserved- it is a leap of faith and can only be done with the support of each other. I did smile at your comment Sean that there will be no one there during the week - as a recent retiree I thought the same how wrong was I- yes full of old fogies like myself.!! Keep up the great content ps lovely fish too

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Keith, thanks so much for your kind comment, it's is definitely a leap of faith but we're a team and support each other well whatever 😀 But I'm definitely looking forward to being with the old fogies on the bank! Tight lines to you and all the best for 2025 👍

[@joerussell4995]

HAPPY NEW YEAR...to you both and what another fantastic video. Congratulations on your new role Sean with the Pike Shop. Your quote...more time on the bank = more fish is very much achieved by your vast experience. I'm proud to be a subscriber to the channel. I would love to see you use your (SD RIG)😁 .

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Joe, thanks so much for your kind comment, our subscribers really do make the channel such a good thing 👍 I'll definitely be out on the bank more and I'll be using the SD rig with some footage of it in use 🎣 Tight lines for 2025 mate 👍

[@Cavanpikefishing]

Great to see ye to back and congratulate on the holy mackerel and everything else great to see you will be coming to Ireland here thanks again for the video and happy new year🎣🙏✌️

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks pal im really excited for this year and beyond its a great future i think coming to ireland will be in the autumn but i,ll let you all know when im coming it would be great to meet up with a few of you 🙏😊 have a fantastic new year mate 🤝😁

[@jamesb99]

Happy New year and hope 2025 brings many tight lines! I love watching you videos and going full time fishing should bring many more. We are the lucky ones too. The two pike were cracking fish well done. I am the same as you pike size doesn't matter. My small pike this season has been over 6lb and biggest 16lb +, but I am happy just to catch and save the blank. I am back on a 3 blank run again. I have been using predator + and a pike pro oil and I think it works for me. Good luck with your new venture.

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks so much James it means a lot to me n Catherine that our subscribers love our content and hopefully I,ll be able to bring even more. We'll done on what you,ve had so far, don,t worry about having a dry spell, the weather's only just settling properly for catching 👍 Tight lines buddy 😀

[@JOHNKELENFOLDI-p4z]

[@luredbyesox]

Hi John, thanks for your kind words and welcome to the channel - we're glad you're enjoying it 😀 I've fished Lomond a few times in the past but not had it on the channel yet. But it's definitely on my list for 2025 as I really love the place and the fishing makes it even better 👍 Tight lines for 2025, you're in a lovely part of Scotland 😀

[@JOHNKELENFOLDI-p4z]

@luredbyesox indeed i am, never fished the loch before only started Pike fishing a year ago after 52 years sea fishing and am now addicted to it i fish the forth and clyde canal with a PB of 15lb 2oz, not long got my permit for lomond so happy dayz and tight lines to you and your good lady

[@luredbyesox]

Thankyou so much aiden 😊 we,ve been working towards this for years but for it to be finally happening is to be honest a bit scary,all ive known all my adult life is work so for that to change feel,s strange but im sure i,ll adjust as you can imagine im going to be very busy this winter so think my trip to ireland may be in autumn but im definetly going to come over and do a mini tour 🤝😊 its a dream come true for me to be able to do this im so lucky thanks again for you support and kind words its all very much appreciated 🙏😊

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks David, it's very much appreciated and a very Happy New Year to you too 👍😀

[@Bo88y22]

Happy new year to you and congratulations on the semi retirement. One thing seriously missing from the deadbating videos is the mandatory brew making section. All deadbait anglers must have brew making content. The alarm always goes off just as the kettle boils. 😂😂👍👍

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks so much, it still feels very new, exciting and a wee bit scary all rolled into one 🤣 Brew making content noted - as it's either a kettle boiling or needing a wee that gets your alarm to scream off! Happy New Year to you, tight lines for 2025 and hope to see you on the bank? 👍😀

[@andyml1]

Couple of beautiful fish there….well done! Great news too….the future’s looking good….best wishes to you both. 😃

[@luredbyesox]

[@destobin4425]

Jeez, someone talking sense regarding size of Pike and fish in general.. Gets a subscribe from me!

[@luredbyesox]

Thanks so much for your comment, I'm glad you agree! Why is everyone so obsessed with size / weight etc? Don't get me wrong, catching something big is great but let's not forget catching something beautiful, unique and special. Welcome aboard the channel buddy and tight lines for 2025 👍

[@stevesmith9015]

Well done on the new venture mate I hope they are resounding success and 2025 brings much success for you both. You will love Ireland I fished over there many times in the 80’s and hopefully it still is as good as it was then. I have stayed on the shore of Loch Derg but never fished it a lovely place. Just a quick question I have been looking for a new landing net for piking what is the one you use in the video and would you recommend it? Cheers

[@luredbyesox]

Thankyou steve i think ireland may have to wait til october time but cant wait im so excited to get going the net is a korum snapper pike spoon they are quite heavy but really good quality 😊 think im gonna be busy this year 🙏🙂

[@stevesmith9015]

@ I always went in October a good time to visit . Once you have been to Ireland for fishing or just a holiday you will keep going back. Try to get to the West Coast it is truly stunning particularly at that time of year. Cheers for the net info is it rubberised?

[@luredbyesox]

@stevesmith9015 sorry yes it is rubberised and the mesh is slightly smaller so the fins dont get damaged in em ive never fished in ireland but i know exactly what you mean its a beautiful part of the world 😊

[@grahamkirkbride5720]

Absolutely fantastic news well deserved that's proper sick😂, no honestly well done to you both, great video yet again, n I'm out tomorrow-3 can't wait hopefully catch a beautiful pike or two 😀 😊 happy new year to you all ❤

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Graham, thanks for your kind comments, we're really excited for the future 👍 I'd love to get a pike in the snow and I think there might be a chance soon so good luck for tomorrow, get an extra layer on! PS i won't tell Catherine you said sick 🤣🤣

[@gruff77]

Thankyou john its like a dream come true im a lucky guy 🙏😊 if enough people like bream i will do a video covering em 👍🙂

[@robertdenman153]

I don't agree with you on the one fish or the it's not about the twenties. I much more agree with a story I was told about a certain nevil. A bloke who I was fishing alongside said he showed this nevil a 27lb pike from the trent and he tried to find out the spot from the photo. He's already had more twenties than most yet still hunting for more I like that. Good luck with going full time fishing (you told me that at the pac) I fish during the week and there's plenty on the bank nowadays unfortunately. It would be nice to be able to pick and choose day fishing it's frustrating to see a venue In perfect condition and you have to go to work 😢.

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Robert, I guess everyone has aims within fishing and whilst it's always great to catch something large, we certainly enjoy trying new areas and seeing what's there. We enjoy 'cracking the code' of a new place 😀 Thanks gor the well wishes of going full time, it's great to know I don't have to wait for a weekend to fish 👍 Tight lines for 2025 👍

[@robertdenman153]

@luredbyesox on a new area I'm happy with anything on my first trip. Some venues that are hard I'll accept anything. But others especially ones I know will produces bigger pike I will definitely set targets. Sometimes I fail miserably on and others have surpassed my expectations by a mile. My target is as many twenty from as many venues as possible. I do like the idea of an english, Scottish, Welsh and Irish twenty ( or more realistic just a pike from them all.

[@luredbyesox]

That,s the sort of thing we we,re touching on not everyone catches 20,s most new anglers would be over the moon with a 10lber 👌😊 i think they see all these big pike on social,s and feel like a 10lber is only a tiddler but its not to me when a subscriber tell,s me they,ve had a 10lb pb im super happy for em 🤘😎 a pike is a pike to me n i love every single one of em 😁 guess everyone has different goal,s in fishing n thats fine dont get me wrong i,d be super happy with a thirty but a ten pounder on a lure still gets my heart racing and a smile on my face its not a blank 👌😊

[@robertdenman153]

@luredbyesox 11 years for a twenty locally I thought I was be reasonably easy having a 19lb pike in my 2nd year of pikeing. My biggest pike in a year averages at 18lb nowadays. If I'm lucky I might see a twenty every other year.

[@luredbyesox]

@robertdenman153 think it,s all about time on the bank the more time the more chance ive alway,s said youve got to go where your best chance is if your chasing number,s 👍 end of the day its fishing and we,ve got to enjoy our time on the bank and i certainly do 🙏😊

@luredbyesox Catherine is a delight to watch on the channel and the piece with her talking about the oils was very informative as we 'd all expect like I said before and you know it's a team effort and she is a major part of what makes luredbyesox a hit

[@luredbyesox]

Hi Derek, it's Catherine! Thank you for your kind comment - I've always tried my best to hide behind the camera but as the channel has grown, I've been putting in a few more appearances! I think it's always good to have a mix when there's talking to keep interest. Thank you also to Jeanette for having eagle eyes! Take care both 🙂
