River Fishing For Roach & Dace - Quivertip Silvers!
For this latest episode we took the camera's down to our local river wensum to try and target a few silver fish! Inspired by the legend John Wilson, who is sadly no longer with us, we aimed to try and catch a few Roach.
Armed with a few maggots, a loaf of bread and with only a few hours on our hands, here's how we got on...
As usual we hope you enjoy it and any feedback is always much appreciated.

we all know that look @09:43 lol poor sod :D Also lads massive respect for dedicating this one to John Wilson. Seen a lot of youtubers do videos in the past foo weeks and not a word about John.

[@AJ385]

Well said!

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks for the kind comments Wayne, hope you're well and that you've been catching a few fish. Have a great Christmas and happy new year to you.

Brilliant Guys. John Wilson is King when it comes to fishing for the camera. he spent a great deal of time here in dorset on my local Dorset Stour and Hampshire Avon R.I.P. John

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks Brian, glad you enjoyed the video. :-) John was indeed, a true legend of out sport.

[@gregoflaherty6194]

Was hoping for a tribute to John Wilson from a youtube fishing channel - this was it, and perfectly judged too. Thanks a lot, lads, you made my day.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks for the kind comments mate and for taking the time to post them. Hope your fishing is going well.

[@easyfishing1936]

Hi thanks for putting this lovely little video up. Fitting tribute to one our finest allround anglers. Regards Bill

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks for the kind comments Bill and for taking the time to post them, glad you enjoyed the video.

[@soultrader57fishingandmusi25]

nice little session, perfect for a cold winters day. I'm not the only one struggling to distinguish roach from dace until they're in my hand! they were lovely deep bodied dace. lovely.

[@jeremynorman1330]

Nice video and a post to John Wilson. I was lucky enough to be able to fish the Wensum in the 60s and 70s. To some extent I don't think we appreciiated what we had a lot of the time. I was a member of the old Wensum Fisheries at Taverham. An Autumn Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning would always be a net of 12 or 15lbs which would include Dace to 8oz, Roach to a 1lb and maybe a dozen Grayling. That was the time, if I remember , when the chub started to show and Cormorants lived offshore. Lovely days.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Sounds lovely Jeremy. We were actually on the river a couple of weeks back and will have a new video coming soon. 😊

[@ishy2step]

Nice one mate. Absolutely right to pay respects to John Wilson, he revolutionised angling coverage on TV. Cracking silvers.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks John. You're right too, John was a legend and true inspiration.

[@eddylonergan142]

[@TheAnglingAmigos]

As a novice river angler myself (Gav) it is something I want to do more of this season. I fished on the Severn last year for the first time trying and bagged an 8lb9oz barbel for my first ever barbel, jammy or what 😁

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Nice one mate, thats a cracking fish! Fingers crossed we plan to do some Barbel fishing at some point this year! :-)

[@paul40925]

Great video as always guys, great tribute to John Wilson, my only surprise to his answer to your question is that is was Roach rather than Chub on the Wensum..Keep it up guys..

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Thanks Paul.

[@paul40925]

@@FromTheWatersEdgeTV keep up the good work, look foreward to more of your videos in 2019..

[@shrimpfish3985]

I didn't know John Wilson was gone. Shock to the system. The man who got me hooked on fishing over 30 years ago. Real loss.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

I know mate, a real loss to the sport.

[@delwigzieful]

Steve great video merry Xmas and Happy new year mate.Sorry i had a few confrontations with MR WILSON he was hated in the bridge pub his attitude was terrible with people thought he owned the village everybody was glad to see him go to abroad see my reply on the vide you did with horrible wilson.

[@devonshire5482]

I can relate to your comments about the deceased J Wilson. I was sea fishing once on a boat. Not a pleasant man who thought everyone was there for his benefit. Very arrogant and not such a good angler as he thought he was. Sad loss for family tho.

[@adambayliss8279]

Hii I’m a junior angler thanks for the great advice :)

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

No worries at all Adam! Glad you're enjoying the video's and our channel. :-)

[@twofishrexy918]

Happy Xmas guys :)

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Happy Christmas to you too mate!

[@delwigzieful]

The big roach are well gone steve otters etc etc still i love the wye and river fishing.Alien

[@lukehollinrake3457]

paraffinalien we have otters on ribble roach n dace seem ok but chub n barbel have sufferd from ethnic groups on lower stretches and cormrants on upper reaches done some damage to the big dace n roach ,seems only salmon stretches with heavy keepers are on the ball people forget you have to have an apex to eat an apex n we dont so to meny otters is not good esp for birds like merganser n greabs

[@snappyfish]

Wilson loved to Trott, no float gear with you? Great vlog though regardless.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Cheers Gary. :-) No, no float gear - we've fished the stretch many times of the float, so thought we'd try something a little different - although we might get out with the trotting gear over xmas. :-)

[@leightondally1112]

Great video and tribute, what rod are you using?

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Hi Leighton, we were using an Advanta RVS Twin Tip Lite rod. If you click the tackle box link in the video description it'll take you to a tackle list of everything we were using. :-) Hope thats ok, cheers.

[@Faithless655]

Do you tend to keep the protective wrap on the cork?

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

I'd say no Jamie, although it's quite possible Steve keeps his on!

[@Tin_Town]

How did you get on with the feeder holding bottom in that current

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Yeah it held ok. The water was a little slacker under the trees.

[@callumbane2753]

What are your thoughts on the environment agency in Norwich Norfolk area? This is abbit of an old video I know but it’s not just otters we’re worried about now on the lower wensum we have seals and the environment agency won’t do anything about it 😂

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Hi Callum, I'm not too sure to be honest... It's a tough one... I did hear there was a seal in the Wensum though. Haha! (As if the fish need any more predators.)

[@matt19norwich]

How is that stretch fishing for Chub at the moment?

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

I'm not too sure Matthew, we havent really been down proper chub fishing yet.

[@matt19norwich]

No worries, guess i'll have to get off my bum and find out!

Nice to hear from you all the way over in Sweden, hope you've been catching a few fish!

[@larsenrivers1299]

Nice video. Can you let us know test curve of quiver tip and weight of feeder? Didn't hear it, sorry if you did mention it

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

Hi Larsen, we were using an Advanta RVS Twin Tip Lite rod. It comes supplied with three tips 0.5oz, 1oz and 2oz, we were using the 1oz tip. Weight of the feeder was 30g (small or mini) I think! If you click the tackle box link in the video description it'll take you to a tackle list of everything we were using. :-) Hope thats ok, cheers.

[@alvinwine5665]

I use bait the size of the fish you are catching here in the states catch fish 12- 20 lbs.

[@FromTheWatersEdgeTV]

So do we Alvin, fish of that size are what we'd use for big Pike! They're just a smaller species here in the UK. I'm sure in the states you have Crappie and Bluegill don't you? As a smaller species? Hope you're fishing is going well! :-)
