Tench Fishing Tactics With Gary Knowles

We join Korums Gary Knowles down at Linear Fisheries on Oxlease Lake as he attempts to catch a BIG Tench.
Gary will be sharing some of the tactics he's used to good effect over the years to help you put more Tench on the bank. From Rigs, to bait choice Gary explains in depth how he targets the species.

I’m a carp angler and I use those korum hooks in size 6 & I’ll barely get knocks just a straight run which is telling me I’m nailing em first time

Thanks for this video, wonderful fish. At 14 minutes you say, pressure is not good : can you tell more about the pressure ?

[@alamocannon3791]

This is more or less the same vid that Dai Gribble done for Korum. Even the same lakes. What about doing some Tench fishing in a realy weedy club estate lake ?

[@fishingmadmidlandslad8536]

Alamo Cannon thank you for your feedback, i think that a video of fishing in the weed is a good shout, Its something i think a few people try and avoid but fishing amongst the weed can be very productive when done correctly.

they don't like real conditions...

[@vipernight2]

i have a set of your scales the digital ones came with very little info i want to know if i have to zero my sling every time to weigh a fish or does it remember the slings weight and is already taken off before i weigh the fish

[@moreb33r1]

Wow nice Tench, just over 9lb as well, that's a good weight! Where abouts is this lake?

[@paullovesey4863]

Would’nt it be better to go straight through to the hook rather than the feeder?

[@winningbigly9012]

PT 1/PT 2 déjà vu?

[@matthewsteel4496]

does this rig class as a running rig?

[@jacksalegend]

No its not a running rig. Its a bolt rig where you use the weight of the feeder to hook the fish. With a running rig, the line can run through the feeder/weight and the bait is below the feeder/weight and not above the feeder like this rig. Hope this makes sense

[@jacksalegend]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppDOk2eQmKh9m7c This is a running rig. The idea is that the line can run through straight from the rod to the bait without the fish pulling the feeder

[@barryfisherman4145]

Great vid but would like to see Korum guys do a float fishing for tench. I’d say Phil Spinks would be the man to do it.

[@fishingmadmidlandslad8536]

Barry Fisherman unfortunately Phil is no longer part of the korum consultant team. But a float fishing video for tench is definitely worth doing, its a great way of catching them.

[@barryfisherman4145]

Fishing mad Midlands lad thanks for reply. Shame Phil is no longer working with you. But you still have other top fisherman working for korum.
