Great Video! "Dodgy Blokes" LOL!! We use our ice fishing rods for brook fishing all the time up here in Maine. Longer rods constantly get stuck in the trees.
I used to fish years ago when I was around 14 but stopped because of work commitments!! Love your channel, and your attitude gives me the motivation to get back on the lakes!!
I love the way you are releasing the fish. Too many youtubers (and fishermen) are just literally throwing the exhausted fish into the water. Glad you take your time to properly hold them until they have recovered!
@@ashleypickering34 Just one of many examples: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Tusq3LbJObM.html Why should I be bullshitting about that matter?
@@ashleypickering34 you must not watch many RU-vid fishing videos. Hundreds of fishing RU-vidrs just lazily throw the fish back in the water after catching it
Holy smoke that's a cloning chubb Chris good angling skills. I love little rivers/canals and streams you never know what to expect. Well done mate thoroughly enjoyable. Have to dig out me old JW compact bait caster modified rod. Cheers Tony
Hi mate, quality quality quality🎣 First the river is amazing, is it a private stretch. Second the stupid yet brilliant little rod was incredible. Third the fishing was so cool. Your a lucky guy having amazing waters near you, wish I had the same near me. Tight lines and keep the videos coming 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Like your vids, mate. Harriett caught a 2.8 lb LM Bass last week on her little rod, with 4 pound test line. Bent the rod double, and dragged her kayac around.
What an awesome vid something different that river must be so fertile full of natural food shallow as anything but stuffed with fish on the bigger rivers the fish are more harder to locate because there's so many fishy swims and not all of them hold fish but that small river your on they seem to be in all the fishy swims.I enjoy when your after the preds but I think this is your best vid yet and all on the mini rod top mini dangling bro 🎣🐟👍
Sorry for the reply on an old video, but what brand is the tiny rod?? Wanted one like that for ages but didn’t know what to search up, would make fishing for small fish fun
Those ice rods can take a lot of stick. Be careful as the EA used to dictate by law that rods must be over 6ft. Don’t know if that’s still the case. I know you used it for novelty, but I expect there’s plenty of situations where they would be well suited. Sitting up in a tree etc. I can’t believe how nice that river is btw! Nice vid
What is the tackle shop you purchased the tiny rod from marketing the use of the rod as? Because that's an ice fishing rod and there's not much call for this type of rod here in the UK
Tip top fishing tips and videos, I been looking at your videos the last few mts, as I live in Dublin it's lock down till 18 of May, I need to get out and back on the bank, I just started out using a sonik lit tec spinning rod and shamio exgage 1000, which the reel is loose when I put it in rod sit, I got rovex 4000, the rod throw lures from 2,till 8 grms, bud what would the top five soft baits to have with u on canal to use, hope you can help me out, Irish, keep the videos going,
What! Amazed that rod didn’t snap ! Well done m8 nice to see the simplicity instead of watching tackle tarts trying to sell you something you don’t need 👍👌
OMG - something wrong with you? We all watch TAF too..... If you watched all his vids: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w4nyaZqT054.html will explain how Chris ended up with this little rod. I'd argue his experience in that previous video and the "rod rest" he has made in this one is pretty innovative. He also has his own unique thing going on here(again - have you seen any of his other vids??). I've been fishing for 40 years and I've seen and heard it all - people like you don't belong on the bank. Cheers Chris - as always top stuff :)
Avon Angling UK why do you have to be so rude!? There are plenty of us that enjoy watching this guy. Clearly you don’t which is fine but do us all a favour and don’t watch and watch something that you like. 😊
