Waggler Fishing for Tench on an Old Estate Tench Lake

[@philmepham8320]

Lovely. Proof that you can have good fishing without bombs, irritating alarms and a van full of tackle. Then again, I’d always fish like this and be happy to fail (perhaps not all the time!) rather than sound the air raid siren every ten minutes. Lovely work both of you.

[@petercopley1242]

Brilliant I love a nice tench 😊

[@grampygamer8584]

This is what I love about fishing, not only the fishing.. but the setting. Stunning! Now where's my rod?!

[@richardtyler296]

So nice to see an unspoiled Tench lake. The sort of fishing that makes the most of the early morning starts

[@robertreid7221]

Tail fins like a navvies shovel, you just have to love Tench. ✌❤ Bob.

[@Jacksonknox834]

The age old saying keeping it simple,andthis guy always,always does absalute pleasure to watch and what a beautiful setting 👍👍

Been on the waiting list of this place for 5 years, can't wait to get on it!

[@peterlewis8040]

It'll be worth it.

[@Fozz-e]

@@peterlewis8040 I had a walk around the grounds this spring, my god is it a beautiful place. Its a national trust. 5 quid to non members. Got feedback on my current position. I'm 53rd and they only allow 200 members at a time and current members get chance to renew first which is only fair.

[@Hascienda27]

Honestly I think this might be an actual fishing dream of mine to do

[@forestalphav9252]

Amazing episode! Absolutely perfect. Thanks! More video about waggler fishing, please.

You can’t beat fishing for Tench on an estate lakes. Beautiful location and another Cadence winner. Well done James and Chappy.

[@priesty4783]

A lovely video - thanks

[@ishy2step]

It was a privilege to fish next to you on the Riverfest at Hereford James, well done on winning and qualifying for the final. That was high quality whip fishing. Thanks for lending me a cattypult! Found mine in the car after 🙄

[@chrisfoster5098]

Thanks for sharing your experience 👍

[@ishy2step]

By the way everyone, James is a top bloke in person, really approachable and helpful.

[@billsiviter9272]

A lovely venue I had the pleasure of fishing a few years ago as a guest of my mate Neil Wade who died a couple of years ago of pancreatic cancer. We had some lovely tench up to 5lbs or so. We were feeder fishing.

[@danielcumberland1123]

Where is it mate?

[@peterlewis8040]

Absolutely love the mist lifting on a summers morning. Takes me back to Cardiff as a teenager at St y nyll pond. It's a much smaller venue, but utterly magical. To make it even more special, I moved to the midlands and am priveleged to be able to fish dudmaston.

[@ridgebackdk]

i still love to fish tench on a swing tip ..and dare i say it the lift float..the old methods still work as well as anything .... i love the swing tip .. !!!

[@stevennorbury9037]

James, what a lovely setting to catch some great Tench. Chappie great camera work again you have a great eye for nature. Takes me back to my youth fishing for Tench on some lovely club waters. The method was the Peacock quill attached bottom only with a rubber or two and waiting for the float to lift. Ver happy days.

[@BlackCrow98026]

Absolutely fantastic! thank you!

[@smitbar11]

Proper Tench fishing on the float, none of this scaled down Carp fishing with bolt rigs that has become so popular these days

[@durrantalan]

Wonderful video James. Takes me back to our days together in The Starlets! Hope you’re well.

[@cadencefishinguk]

Hi Alan, great to hear from you! Please drop me an email, be great to meet up and fish together again👍[e-mail]

Fascinating to see fishing from a paltform. I thought tench were wary. I fish fly for trout so this is a totally new sight for me

[@cadencefishinguk]

Need to broaden your scope Stephen 🤭

[@stephenm8133]

@@cadencefishinguk Call me simple but there aren't enough video sequences of floats dipping, bobbing, or lifting.

[@cadencefishinguk]

@@stephenm8133 with only a small amount of fish caught it was tricky to capture this detail on this occasion. Apologies.

[@stephenm8133]

@@cadencefishinguk I was speaking about videos in general. After prancing up and down a river in waders, flicking a fly here and there, I think watching a float is one of those mesmerising relaxations, like those rare times you get a long drift on a dry fly before drag sets in.

Hello James, Thank you for this great vidéo. 👍 Daniel.

[@TheGlassman63]

You made a pair of friends with the swans !

[@brianwhitelegg112]

Ryan Smith .... good to see an angler just letting the wildlife get on with its life. I remember a day on a backwater of the river Nene at Peterborough where it took me a best part of the day to make friends with a female swan to the point where she was feeding out of my hand. I knew I had got it right when she brought her brood of chicks to me to hand feed. One of the most pleasing days I have ever spent on the river bank.

[@alziquint]

Recently retired and getting kit together to start fishing again next spring. Noticed you almost always flick the rod after casting, why is that? Thanks great video

Hello James, I'm always curious about your approach to waggler fishing compared to us other "French"! the junction of the main line and the leader as the choice of the length of this one! you never use a homemade leader? Thanks see you soon

Hi James yet another really nice and very very watchable video. I know you said it on this video but what is the split shot you use that doesn't generally damage the line? There's so many out there.

Definitely not playing with the ground bait 😂

I did warn him😋

[@mmmmmmmmmm.m.]

Get it in💪😁

[@davidgray3321]

How did he get out to where he is sitting? I am always surprised that fishermen seem to re construct a whole business office when fishing, they could motorise it and drive the whole suit to the lake .

[@cadencefishinguk]

Extension legs on boxes or platforms with adjustable extension legs. Pretty commonplace for years.

[@grahamnash9794]

That was over too quickly. Just like when I'm on the bank, I always want that one more cast. Kind of disappointed when you finished so soon.

[@cadencefishinguk]

Graham Nash Hi Graham, we only had a limited time to fish that morning and the weather got seriously hot very quickly. With the heat + bright conditions I don’t think we would have caught many more fish. Anyway I do love quick sessions like that in the summer 👍

There is nothing better than a summer's morning or late evening float fishing for tench on a picturesque lake or pond. It's the sort of fishing that dreams are made of. Real Mr. Crabtree fishing. And it's always nice to see someone else muck up a throw of ground bait that misses the spot by yards ;-))... It makes the rest of us feel better about ourselves 8-))...

[@jonnybravo3055]

1 of my favourite ways of fishing. Reminds me of fishing in the mid to late 80s as a kid. A 3lb tench seemed massive back then. Hairy moments when you have a 1.7 bottom on to a size 20.
