I Can't Believe This Fish Ate my Lure! EPIC FIGHT!

I can't believe this canal fish ate my lure. This session I hit the canal in search of the beautiful tench. But not in a way people are use to. I'm leaving the worms and maggots at home and cracking out the ultra light lures! The aim of this session was to attempt to catch my first tench on a lure! Armed with my super ultra light set up and micro nymph baits it was always going to be a fun session with loads of species caught like chub, rudd, bream and perch, but did I catch the target species?

If you guys wanna see a session I filmed fishing with a brand new jerkbait check out the video on the On The Hook KZbin channel! Link here kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKGpc6lqgteIq68 On another note I'm upgrading my audio recording gear. With my last two sessions some of the audio clips have been damaged with horrid white noise, so if some of the audio sounds odd don't worry I'm sorting it 😀

[@elliottking3357]

Which canal do you fish on? I live on the Ashby canal but it's so green and murky and have never landed one. Congratulations on getting 2 Doctor fish on such light gear well done

[@_FOTW]

Not only did you catch your first ever tench on a jig, you did it with your own made jig! Brilliant, Top angling as always mate.

[@doctorjeep86]

Do some eel videos! Your canal and river must be full of them.

@@lscouser1344 why should he tell people where he fishes? For your benefit? 😅

Just finally watched the whole of this video.... Tench on a LURE???? THAT'S JUST INSANE!!!!?? Fkn good work sir.....!!! 🤯

[@craig5098]

Great video again,I have also been targeting tench on the lure this year with a lot of success.A young KZbinr filmed me earlier this year O.B RAMPAGE (baby tench) I've had many more since great fun on micro gear.keep up your great video's

[@kemalhussein6106]

If i never just saw it i would never have believed it ...Chris that is an amazing catch. I have never ever heard of anyone targetting Tench on a jig. I would have said you were mad for even trying, but fair play to you mate. Brilliant vid

[@tonnyberben1770]

I hear in spain they catch carp and barb on like 10cm twitchbaits But this suprised me

[@kemalhussein6106]

@@tonnyberben1770 ...really!! I suppose when they are feeding they will take anything Carp & Barbel can hoover a lot of food

[@tonnyberben1770]

@@kemalhussein6106 maybe thats why they become so fat from eating so much fish scuds ald craws 😃😃 i think they would bulk more from that than from boilies and particles

Nothing beats seeing notification for your videos popping up. Looking forward to this one.

[@matimus100]

Get a mixer for beating

[@frankjohnston2048]

Fantastic Chris, I would have gone straight down the pub after that for a beer, but may have spilt it as I would still be shaking.

[@needham831]

Well done Chris. You were totally made up for that first Tench and deserved to be. Just an idea but maybe you could try a fake worm on that light set up too. We all know Tench love worms so casting one out and twitching it under the nose of a Tinca might do the trick.☺

[@waldekteraz5647]

Amazing job! All best from Poland:)

[@aarondavies8722]

These videos with catching the usual lure fish are the best on your channel 👌

[@StigNorrena]

What a challenge! The fact you did this just for you makes the video even better, besides it worked. Every passionate fisherman will recognize how rare and intese these moments are. This is one of those days you'll never forget. That you caught another one is just crazy. Please do more challenges you just do for you!

[@rangerlcfc]

I’ve just signed me and my 6yr old up to an angling club In Leicester. £40 a year for access to so much water! Can’t believe I’ve never bothered! We fished the canal yesterday, and he had 4perch all by himself!

[@brainfry]

Loved this man. Great content, looks like a blast. Glad I came across your channel, looking forward to watching your older videos, and seeing the new ones too! Have a nice day!

[@johnwelbourn3811]

Delightful, heart-warming video, so pleased for you Chris, congratulations on the tench.

[@daanvanoldeniel9188]

Awesome Chris, a true fisherman will definitely recognize how awesome this moment is and must have been for you. Tench is such a magnificent species. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@fin1493]

This is absolutely amazing, the rig, the set up and the fish! Quality stuff absolutely lovely video mate.

[@NoobTVDO]

I've managed to catch one on a soft plastic the other day and decided to look if anyone else have done it, you are the only video that popped!

[@markymarkthelabman7639]

Great video and you were lucky not to kneel in the dog landmine on the second tench😂

[@simonpe3trie102]

Great video yet again Chris you smashed it and answer to the question at the end of the video yes would definitely like more videos like this love the ultralight and microchip stuff . ! ! !

[@stonefly514]

What an angler. Good job as always! Thank you Chris!🎣🎣🎣

[@TheBigRab]

This is such a great catch! Love catching tench normally, but on the ultra light gear, must have been awesome! If you ever come to Hampshire for fishing, I'd love to come with you. I've never fished a river before and need to learn the ways! Never caught a pike!

I've lived in Canada for over 20 years but i still enjoy watching the finesse of UK canal angling. I used to fish for tench with sweetcorn bait on an 16/18 hook. I would never have thought of using a micro jig. You did well to land that. Thanks for sharing

Cracking Tench there! Great fishing Chris! 💥🎣

[@esqu1re108]

Great job! Tench is a real fighter, a very strong fish. I caught my first tench on a float rod, at first I thought it was a hook on a snag, but suddenly this hook came to life! And it was a tench weighing 1.127 kg. But the real battle was this summer in May, I was slowly catching perches on my ultra light, and then suddenly a “golden ferrari” sits on the hook and the reel friction starts to crack, the line is rapidly unwinding, I was carrying it for about 7 minutes, its weight was 2.780 kg, amazing feeling! As always great video! Thanks!
