Love the regular uploads especially with all of the variation across your channel, also really enjoyed your Madeira videos and it inspired me to take a travel rod on holiday Last week in Tenerife and I'm so glad I did because I ended up catching a bunch of Ornate Wrasse and a tiny yellow fin Baracuda! Keep up the great videos and I look forward to the next one!

[@adventurefishinguk]

Thanks mate! Really happy to hear you’ve been inspired to some degree to get out and have some fun fishing!

[@richardevans8908]

I once saw a goldfish in my local small river it was at least a pound, there are houses that run along the river so I’m guessing someone put it in there from their pond or something, tried to catch it but it wasn’t interested and never saw it again most likely got munched by a pike not long after

[@alison8526]

"munched" 🤢

[@adventurefishinguk]

It probably got eaten mate they aren’t exactly discreet are they! Could have been in there a while if it was that size though

[@rickskuh]

Ass munched?

[@rhyswaite1210]

How big can a goldfish actually get ?

[@Waynebridgeof]

Ther is a 2 lb one caught in England I’m near sure

Unusual looking lure wasn’t it, worked a treat though! Thanks for watching!

[@remcovanvliet3018]

Pike come in all kinds of patterns and colours, at least here they do. I've seen them range from off white on the bottom and camel tan on top to a deep dark green all over, with a narrow light band along the belly. As for the spots I've seen pike with just a few or none at all, or lots of small ones equally distributed like a fine mesh net, or bigger spots. Sometimes arranged in horizontal lines, sometimes vertical lines, sometimes totally random. Anything's possible. In a single body of water the colour is often similar, though not always. The pattern most always varies wildly from fish to fish, and is as unique as a fingerprint, and can actually be used to identify individual fish. I do a lot of fishing in urban areas, in relatively small canals, and some fish you almost feel like you get to know them like old friends. There's individuals I've had in the net a dozen times over the years.

[@adventurefishinguk]

Very true I’ve seen pike of all different colours and patterns, just none quite like this one! Off to the Netherlands Monday to Thursday next week, staying between Utrecht and Amsterdam. Can’t wait!

[@Rose.Of.Hizaki]

9:25 looks like someone lost their pike float in the tree.

[@adventurefishinguk]

They did I saw that at the time! A couple of lures in that tree too

[@cocospops9351]

I go fishing on my local lake in a kayak. I always check the trees over the water beside the car park fishing stands and have found loads of stuff 🤣 got myself 2 frogs, 5 spinners, 2 spoons, few soft plastics with jig heads and a bunch of wire traces. Place is a goldmine 😄

[@jackwatson5400]

I’ve saw a pike that colour before, was quite an odd sight wasn’t as big as that mind you and was pulled from a local small lake that was used as an old trout fishery

[@adventurefishinguk]

Funnily enough I think this lake used to be a trout fishery too 🤔

[@Uk.wildman]

What other species of fish are in the lake

[@adventurefishinguk]

Mainly carp and roach I believe!

[@Tyrionownesall]

Dunno if its still there but there used to be a pond near a park in my old town of melton mowbray. Some kids stole some crucian carp from local fishing lakes released them in the pond and someone put goldfish in there. They bread to make hundres and hundreds of cross breeds. You literally dipped a bait in and caught immediately

[@adventurefishinguk]

Sounds like a great place to fish mate!

[@vijaysuryaaditya9860]

I've had Orfe, but never Koi. Fish farm escapees I shouldn't wonder. You wouldn't think they'd last long, but they seem to thrive!

[@adventurefishinguk]

[@adrianharrod3767]

With the spots instead of stripes maybe a "Muskie"

Have you ever used surface lures for Pike before? Much more exciting seeing them being smashed on the surface.

[@adventurefishinguk]

I do use them mate not this time of year though! The savage gear snake is my favourite

[@richardjones2811]

@@adventurefishinguk Yes the warmer months are better for surface Pike definitely. I've never tried the snake as I'm mainly a sea lure fisherman. I'm sure a Patchinko or popper would work a lot better than a snake lure. Give it a try 👍

30 lb braid! I've landed 30 lb pike on 8 lb bs mono. The important addition being a 12" wire trace.

You should never target pike using mono that weak, fair enough if you caught it accidentally while perch fishing but specifically targeting them you should go way stronger

[@kirstyshiels6155]

Lovely piece of fishing 🎣. Proof is in the pudding with that koi carp lure - fascinating, I’m always majorly miffed at anyone being so irresponsible as to release a helpless ex beloved family pet into a predator laden body of water 🤯🫣totally nuts, just laziness, no other excuse 😢. Tight lines. Fish 🎣 on. 😊

Very true, ornamental fish don’t stand much chance when there’s pike in area. A small goldfish would make a nice meal for a big perch too!

Rubbish, if there's enough food resources a koi could live for a long time in the wild as many do. Caught koi over 20 lb, many fisheries stock them nowadays.

I think you’re missing the point… plenty of places have koi yes but my angle is that because of there bright colours smaller koi won’t last long coexisting with pike
