Thanks for watching! 👍🎣

[@conorotoole8579]

Fastly becoming my favourite fishing channel on KZbin,very well edited fairplay man im a big fan 👏

[@Lifeonthebank]

Mate, that's really kind thanks! I really appreciate your support. I'll keep making them if you keep watching them ;) Good luck with your fishing!!!!

[@jamescodling8641]

As always great content. Lovely chap and very insightful.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thanks 🙏 I’ve been doing a bit of crankbait fishing lately. An awesome way to catch chub! 👍👍👍

[@101karper]

Great Challenge, great result. Nice video mate !

[@Lifeonthebank]

101karper thanks! Weird how we set ourselves these challenges 😂👍🎣

[@clooperman3745]

Lovely Chub at the end, those Salmo Hornet plugs are very good, similar to the Shakespeare S range in action which l have been using since they came out, the advantage of these lures as you've shown is their ability to fish effectively at various retrieve rates, look forward to watching more of your lure fishing videos.

[@Lifeonthebank]

clooper man thanks for checking out all the vids. Make sure you watch the Ned Rig one. A very special fish at the end!!! 👍

[@Watercraftfishingtv]

Awesome video mate! Love it!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Perch Finder TV cheers mate. Thanks for the Cameo 😂👍🎣

[@lenraby5920]

I love mini cranks between 5 & 7cm and they have caught me a lot of large Perch, Pike and Chub from my canal. My favourite are Westin Buzzbite which are suspending and are perfect on canals. Brilliant video as normal, informative and entertaining nice going mucka.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thank you mate. I’ll take a look at those Buzzbites. Big fan of Westin. Glad you enjoyed the video! 👍👍👍

[@happyfishingtimes8823]

Beautiful Chub matey !!!!

[@Lifeonthebank]

A bit of a clonker! Let’s hope we land a decent one before the season ends!!! 🤣

[@leefishersallwaysfishing]

Well put together vid and that chub was awesome, well done

[@Lifeonthebank]

Lee Fisher nice one mate. Thanks 👍👍👍🎣

[@DevonLerfer]

Brilliant! Fantastic Chub and really enjoyed listening to your thoughts on working crank baits. Great stuff 👍🎣

[@Lifeonthebank]

Devon Lerfer don’t use them a lot but I think I will in the new season! Thanks for watching 👍

[@Waxwing66]

And just when I've discovered the Hornet lures, I see this! Great advice on how to make the best use of them. Thankyou, great videos.

[@Lifeonthebank]

I love the Rattlin Hornet, such a good lure. Thanks for checking out the videos 🙏👍👍👍

Fishing with Ash thanks mate. Was pleased with the chub because conditions were horrendous 😫👍🎣

Quite an interesting video Nick, something new for me . Anyway that a smashing mullet 👍

I really enjoy your work Bro . You explain things clearly , like tying a float stop ! Keep the videos coming , and thank you !😀👍

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thanks mate. I really appreciate it. More on there way very soon!!! 👍👍👍

[@RalphAnderson7605]

Wow! Just waiting for this channel to boom! Keep it up buddy

[@Lifeonthebank]

Jack Roebuck thank you mate. Appreciate your support. Be lucky 😉🎣

[@jangojango4823]

Another cracking video Nick, a really interesting watch and what a fantastic fish to cap off the river season. I take my hat off to you for even trying for chub in those conditions. I know from experience that flood conditions do chuck up the occasional big lump but it’s usually when fishing really big smelly meat baits for barbel - I’ve certainly never been brave enough to intentionally fished for them though. Well done mate 👍

[@Lifeonthebank]

Jango Jango yeah, a big smelly bait would surely have been more effective. But you know when you get something in your head! 😂 Didn’t think I stood a chance. I got lucky! Thanks for watching 😉🎣👍

[@jangojango4823]

Sometimes it’s a case of ...... he who dares wins Rodney, he who dares wins 😂

[@amomentintimechannel1315]

Don't you just love it when a plan comes together!! Wonderful chub mate. Sadly looks like we're going to have to wait a while before we can get out again, I just squeezed my last pike trip in before the clampdown, but March was kind.

[@Lifeonthebank]

A Moment in Time Channel yeah it’s gonna be a struggle :( Thanks, just subbed your channel!!!

[@mattevans923]

The Chub is a beautiful fish indeed !

[@FanterFishing]

Nick your editing is straight 🔥..... you sure know how to put them together bud. Nice session aswell

[@Lifeonthebank]

Fanter Fishing Thank you mate! A tricky session. The river was a bit messed up! Got lucky 😉😂

[@addictedtoangling]

Happy days what a chub top angling i enjoyed the tip about try fishing small crankbaits slowly and let them rise i will give it a go mate cheers tight lines

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thank you mate. Let me know how you get on! 👍🎣

[@chriswarby1001]

Thats was an awesome Chub 👌

bank mate I'm subbed on not going anywhere lol sold as seen as they say

[@Lifeonthebank]

@@vernonalexis1077 top man :) cheers

[@bosskosmas]

my go to lure for chub is a white or yellow inline spinner

[@kirilccna]

Great video mate. I know this river very well and had e few PB`s pike, perch and chub from there. There is also a few special big brownies which I guess you know about :)

[@DomFishingUK]

minnow style cranks are my chub go to, might be something to pick up next to try out and maybe look into whether lure style effects catch rates :)

[@Lifeonthebank]

DomFishingUK I was using the 4.5cm, too big. They do a rattlin 3.5 which I was struggling to get hold of. Definitely going to experiment more with these. What brand do you use for the minnows?

[@DomFishingUK]

@@Lifeonthebank sakura, salmo, rapala and fox rage all do minnow style baits my favorite is the 3d prey buy savage gear in 7cm but they are discontinued.

[@Rob-zq8sy]

Great vid again, inspired change of lure, have some hornets (even smaller) myself amazing action.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Rob thanks mate. Yes, I need to get my hands on the smaller ones. Reckon they’ll be even better. 👍👍🎣

[@garethholdcroft4130]

Another great video. Really enjoy your videos. I’ve dabbled with dropshot and jig fishing for a couple of years and there’s some great videos of people catching fish on these methods and Ned and cheb rigs. What I’d love to see is a bit of an idiots guide into when you turn up to a venue what makes you decide what method to fish, whether to use creatures, fish, worms and what dictates the colour you use for each. Is it weather, temperatures, water clarity etc. Would love see a video showing something like this.

[@Lifeonthebank]

My Going in Blind video is a bit like this. Starting with finding spots on Google maps!

[@garethholdcroft4130]

@@Lifeonthebank cheers mate I’ll have a look for that 👍🏼

[@ianbourne9970]

💥 what a Chubb, great video footage pal.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Ian Bourne - a right result in such poor conditions. Thanks for watching mate 👍

[@gez1972]

That's a stonking Chub! My biggest chub on lures is only 4lbs 8oz cracking fight though on light tackle, really impressed with your channel just subbed.

[@andizgarta6773]

You're a legend already. At least for me :)

[@Lifeonthebank]

😂 Thanks for watching the video. Good luck in your fishing 👍👍🎣

[@theoccasionalangler6956]

Really professional mate!! Your videos are excellent , I’ve been chatting with majorcraft and might have an idea if you wanted to do a meetup video. Again great stuff Guy

[@thepikeangler2022]

You can drastically change how much a lure dives by using your rod tip alone. Keeping it high will keep the lure high and vice versa

[@Lifeonthebank]

Sound advice. Love getting tips like this from other anglers!!! 👏👏👍

[@matthewbeddows2206]

Nice vid. Do you use a wire trace?

[@darrenrodd.]

Awesome chubb m8 🎣👍

[@Lifeonthebank]

Cheers mate. Definitely starting to think about doing a bit of chub fishing before the end of the season! 👍👍👍

[@delwigzieful]

Well done nick hell of a chub i love my crankbait fishing sad the season has closed on the river roll on june well fished nick congrats buddy ALIEN

[@Lifeonthebank]

paraffinalien how are we going to manage without the river! Will be using more crankbaits in future for sure! Thanks for watching 👍🎣

[@delwigzieful]

Yes nick i know i hate close season on the river but it gives the fish and the water time to recove nick take a look at the salamo minnow crankbaits had some good days fishing them now i will have to get a couple of rattlin hornets i was jealous watching you nick HA HA keep safe mate tight lines ALIEN

[@Lifeonthebank]

Definitely going to check out those minnows. Give the hornets a go! Yes stay safe mate. Maybe by a lake! 😉

[@delwigzieful]

Nick what are we going to do with all the Lockdown going on if i can't go fishing i will crack up mate this will kill me keep safe nick ALIEN

I know mate. Already climbing the walls here! Getting prepped but not sure how long I can handle this for!

Never caught on a crankbait . Got a load of them though . Fishing stuff is like my Jewellery . I dont fish much but collect a lot of it . I do get some funny looks when im walking down the street with a Shakespeare small S hanging from my earlobe though . I just tell myself that they are the weirdos !!!

[@andylamude3932]

As you are a really good lure fisherman, have you tried lure fishing for trout? I really enjoy lure fishing on small wild streams for wild brown trout. Great fun with salmo and mepps. Really enjoy your videos, well made 👍🏼🎣

[@Lifeonthebank]

Moody fish Thanks for the kind comments! Sounds epic! I do fish for trout but I use flies on a fly rod. Might try a little Mepps, classic spinner! 👍👍🎣

@@Lifeonthebank Thank you! 😅

[@fin4889]

Hi, I have seen you use the Chartreuse Blue hornet the most and you mentioned that it was your preferred lure in another chub crank bait video. I what your thoughts are in regards to why it works so well? I am unsure whether to get it because I fear it will be too bright for clearer water. Would liked to get your thoughts on this BW

[@Lifeonthebank]

Yeah, love a Chartreuse hornet. I hear what you’re saying in terms of clear water though. I have a couple of other colours to fall back on but the Chartreuse seems to always score well! Maybe get a Holographic Perch and Silver Holographic Shad which are more natural. You can then use those if the Chartreuse isn’t working. 👍

[@fin4889]

@@Lifeonthebank Excellent, I was thinking along those lines, cheers

[@lexingtonlad5745]

I find jerk baits with loud rattles work well in coloured water. Spinner baits work well too.

[@nickoakley6464]

Great video and a cracking chub from very tough fishing conditions. I was wondering what the song is at 3:26, any one know??

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thanks! Sorry don’t know about the song! 👍

[@johncoombs3128]

Loved the all the predator fishing,Could you tell me what landing net brand you use?

[@Lifeonthebank]

John Coombs I now use the TILTA net by Korum Snapper. New video out Wednesday showing me using this for perch! 👍

[@SuperSmittyboy]

What size rattling hornet were you using for chub? 4.5cm I bet much want to get a couple of these and try them myself as soon as we are allowed out! Edit- rewatched and found out myself, too vid bud 👍

[@Lifeonthebank]

SuperSmittyboy I was using the 4.5 but I actually think the 3.5 would be better. Let me know how you get on! 👍

[@JackSparrow-oi5jb]

What’s the rod and reel mate ?

[@Lifeonthebank]

Jack Sparrow MTP Zander Finder. Find on insta @mtp.predator . I also use Korum rods too, the Finesse Jig. Reel is a little Daiwa Ninja 2000.

Hey! Could you please tell me what diameter and weight leader did you use in this video?

[@Lifeonthebank]

0.25mm fluorocarbon. It’s 10lb bs. If there’s pike present I’ll also use a thin wire trace. 👍

[@lexingtonlad5745]

Cracking video.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thanks! Please sun and check out my other vids! 👏👏👏👍

[@jellevanmerrienboer]

I've got a question. What do you think is the best lure for chub?

[@Lifeonthebank]

Rattlin hornet hands down 👍👍👍👍

[@leafysfishing]

What net is that? Iv just got a small fox warrior net but it seems a tad weak at the connection, was only cheap and it's nice and light for lure fishing. I alway lift a fish out by the actually net and net head so I won't put a great deal of weight on the handle amd the quick release connector anyway.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Mate, definitely check out the new Korum Snapper Fast Net. Flips into action really nicely and has built in net magnet in the handle so you can attach it to your bag whilst roaming 👌

[@leafysfishing]

@@Lifeonthebank iv dropped a few hints for the net to my missus 🤣 on a serious note are they worth the money? There's a lot of good nets around that price range, would this be a good option? As I don't normally pay that much but would for a solid net.

[@leafysfishing]

@@Lifeonthebank got myself the korum snapper fast net along with the 1.8 handle.. seems really light weight too.. can't wait to try it out, hopefully brings me a bit of luck 🤣

[@gumpysee3644]

did you use a wire trace on it

I use fine wire by drennan. Esox soft strand 👍
