I Can't Believe This Fish Ate my Lure! EPIC FIGHT! 

If you guys wanna see a session I filmed fishing with a brand new jerkbait check out the video on the On The Hook RU-vid channel! Link here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vpFBv4MrUuM.html On another note I'm upgrading my audio recording gear. With my last two sessions some of the audio clips have been damaged with horrid white noise, so if some of the audio sounds odd don't worry I'm sorting it 😀

If i never just saw it i would never have believed it ...Chris that is an amazing catch. I have never ever heard of anyone targetting Tench on a jig. I would have said you were mad for even trying, but fair play to you mate. Brilliant vid

Great video again,I have also been targeting tench on the lure this year with a lot of success.A young RU-vidr filmed me earlier this year O.B RAMPAGE (baby tench) I've had many more since great fun on micro gear.keep up your great video's

Just finally watched the whole of this video.... Tench on a LURE???? THAT'S JUST INSANE!!!!?? Fkn good work sir.....!!! 🤯

What a challenge! The fact you did this just for you makes the video even better, besides it worked. Every passionate fisherman will recognize how rare and intese these moments are. This is one of those days you'll never forget. That you caught another one is just crazy. Please do more challenges you just do for you!

Nothing beats seeing notification for your videos popping up. Looking forward to this one.

These videos with catching the usual lure fish are the best on your channel 👌

Amazing job! All best from Poland:)

I've managed to catch one on a soft plastic the other day and decided to look if anyone else have done it, you are the only video that popped!

Bucket list videos are really good because of the excitement of the person achieving the deed. You being a perfect example. Thanks.

Iv been watching you for 3 years I'm 39 iv watch all sorts of fishermen you are a ace Fisher man one of the best no joke mate well done 👍

I've lived in Canada for over 20 years but i still enjoy watching the finesse of UK canal angling. I used to fish for tench with sweetcorn bait on an 16/18 hook. I would never have thought of using a micro jig. You did well to land that. Thanks for sharing

Awesome Chris, a true fisherman will definitely recognize how awesome this moment is and must have been for you. Tench is such a magnificent species. Greetings from the Netherlands.

Well done Chris. You were totally made up for that first Tench and deserved to be. Just an idea but maybe you could try a fake worm on that light set up too. We all know Tench love worms so casting one out and twitching it under the nose of a Tinca might do the trick.☺

The tungsten putty trick is genius, it's now my only weight I add to my soft lures when jig head's are too big or bold , especially like the way you can shape it ,I've even give the putty pattern and carved eyes etc into the putty .Thanks for that one mate

Well done m8. Your 100% the most versatile fisherman on you tube. Keep up the great videos 👍👍

Tench are my favourite fish, just beautiful. Congrats for fulfilling your task

Delightful, heart-warming video, so pleased for you Chris, congratulations on the tench.

Congrats Chris I really enjoyed watching this was you shacking with that 2nd tench. Looking forward to seeing you next video

Really cool stuff, presented in a very authentic, winning way. Thanks for sharing. BTW Tungsten putty - what a great hint 👍🏼

That tench is brilliant.. truly amazing fighters tench are. Never forget my biggest Tench in Conwy Water Gardens in 2002. Amazing fish Chris. Can hear how much it means to you 💕

Well done buddy! cracking vid as always!

Cracking video and cracking first fish what a weird yet wonderful way to catch them this is why I love watching your videos for the variety all the best for your next session

Bravo 👏, what a catch! Not a method I'd have even considered for a Tommy. Well done again.

I’ve just signed me and my 6yr old up to an angling club In Leicester. £40 a year for access to so much water! Can’t believe I’ve never bothered! We fished the canal yesterday, and he had 4perch all by himself!

I love watching videos like this Out of the ordinary Not the given way I’m glad you made this video as not many creators choose to do things different Great video, great catch Well done 👍🎣

Your right been fishing for 50 years and never seen that. Awsome

Very humble and much understated in what was undertaken to accomplish One of my Fav's to date 👌

That was an absolute belter,just goes to show what a bit of perseverance can do. Well done 🎣🐟

I'm so happy you achieved your quest, well done as ever, tight lines forever 👍💯

Bravo l'ami, Cette vidéo m'interpelle énormément car je voudrais essayer le barbeau avec cette méthode. Je pense que mon leader doit être réduit car j'ai vu que tu étais en 8/100 ème est c'est sûrement la clef de la réussite ainsi que le mastic sur la tête plombée pour la discrétion. Je te suis depuis le sud de la France et j'adore tes vidéos même si j'ai un peu de mal à comprendre tout ce que tu dis car mon anglais laisse un peu à désirer et tu parles aussi vite que tu prends du poisson 😄. Régale nous encore, tu es une très bon pêcheur. Et très vidéos sont superbes et très instructives👍.

Great video and you were lucky not to kneel in the dog landmine on the second tench😂

I learn a lot just watching your vids Chris cheers 👍

Great job! Tench is a real fighter, a very strong fish. I caught my first tench on a float rod, at first I thought it was a hook on a snag, but suddenly this hook came to life! And it was a tench weighing 1.127 kg. But the real battle was this summer in May, I was slowly catching perches on my ultra light, and then suddenly a “golden ferrari” sits on the hook and the reel friction starts to crack, the line is rapidly unwinding, I was carrying it for about 7 minutes, its weight was 2.780 kg, amazing feeling! As always great video! Thanks!

Great video yet again Chris you smashed it and answer to the question at the end of the video yes would definitely like more videos like this love the ultralight and microchip stuff . ! ! !

Awesome video Pal as always!! What beautiful Tench! One of my most favourite fish, if I get a Tench on line I’m like you! 😆

I'm dying to catch a tench so don't say your viewers don't like your videos pal smashed it love all your videos and have watched you for a good few years now doesn't matter the fish tight lines pal

This is such a great catch! Love catching tench normally, but on the ultra light gear, must have been awesome! If you ever come to Hampshire for fishing, I'd love to come with you. I've never fished a river before and need to learn the ways! Never caught a pike!

Top vid pal glad u got the tench boom😎💣💥

G'day Chris, two beautys there mate. All the best form downunder 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This is absolutely amazing, the rig, the set up and the fish! Quality stuff absolutely lovely video mate.

Good work soldier!! That’s a bangin result! Nothing better than ticking off that bucket list and you looked made up. Awesome video, yet again. Keep em coming Chris 👌

Chris your giving away all the secrets it's one of my favourite methods fly fishing with nymphs or buzzers under a indicator. Its deadly great video as always

Thank you for sharing another great video I must have a go at this lure fishing 🎣. Hope to see some more videos soon

Great vid Chris. Real nerves and emotion watching it. Great job 👍

You are up there with the best jig, spinner, lure fisherman I’ve ever seen mate keep it up

Brilliant fishing mate, really enjoyed watching this and thanks for tungsten putty jig head idea.

FairPlay only got my first tench this week too know the feeling bud tight lines

Grandads split cane rod and bakelite centre pin reel(still got em), down the bottom of the garden was the canal..... 2lb 4oz tench.... Grandad would be proud... I was 9 or so. .. See you in Lidl again.. 👍

What a fish ,Congratulations that is awesome stunning Fish 😁😁😁

Nice one! Last week I caught a 50cm tench on quite a big piece of bream filet. It was my PB! Greetings from Hungary✌️

A German lurefirm ProfiBlinker made a full dvd on catching coarsefish on their lures, they also used the 2 smallest sizes. But they baited the fish with groundbait and fished over it and let the lure rest for 2- 3 seconds small lift and rest again. They caught bream, carp, roach and ide . This dvd was made atleast 10 years ago

What an angler. Good job as always! Thank you Chris!🎣🎣🎣

Whatever you produce is always first class. Never doubt yourself. Keep on smashing it. 👊

Top class angler, one of the best, nice to see proper fishing and not just chuck and hook on a commercial.

Great to see these videos .Micro lure fishing is amazing and I want to learn more

Amazing fish my absolute fave freshwater fish to catch brilliant fighters great video and you can tell that one took ages to get !! 😍 you earnt that capture

I've caught loads of tench in my time. usually bread flake on a lift float. never ever would I have thought they would take a jig. crack on and well done.

this is certainly one of the best fishing videos out there, very well done!

Excellent! Nice to see someone achieving their goals.

Where I’m from catching a tench off the canal is like gold dust

Fantastic never seen tench on a lure before.🎣👍

Awsum catch that tench,&the bream was a cracker... good angling.. Ozzy

Great video Good tip with the putty Must dig mine out from the carp box

Fantastic video Chris!! What an amazing result 🎣🎣 top angler top channel

just absolutely fantastic angling mate, tench on a lure who would have thought it. Brilliant just keep doing what your doing I Love it well done.

Well that's a first. Well done Chris.

Well done Chris, very pleased for you. 👍

I love Tench. Huge fights but such a calm manner on the bank

Brilliant video mate.

Loved this man. Great content, looks like a blast. Glad I came across your channel, looking forward to watching your older videos, and seeing the new ones too! Have a nice day!

Bravo! That is very special to achieve. In my mind that is one of fishing's mount Everest.

Great looking tench .Well caught.

That trick with the putty is awesome👌 definitely gonna have to try that next time! Sweet vide dude :)

Best vid yet! TENCH ON A LURE 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

That was brilliant thank you, I'm going to try this asap, I love lure fishing.

Micro jigs look great fun Chris. Really like your idea with the rig putty. And big Tench on a micro jig and light line Amazing . Nice one 👍

Awesome as always Chris, just goes to show that if they’re hungry they’ll have a crack at anything 👌🏻

Some amazing footage in there. Crazy how those fish aren't getting spooked, do you have the go pro on a long selfie stick or something?

Buzzing for you mate well done 👏

The emotion! I loved it. Congrats. Looking forward to the 100k subs!

Excellent video dude, I mostly fish a light set up, 2 -10 grams but this video has convinced me to go get myself an ultra light set up. Cheers and well done.

Another great video,I’ve watched a good few but have never seen a boat on any of your trips any reason? My canal the Llangollen canal is like the M5 with a boat every few minutes (lots of times with several in view at once and usually a couple of crossovers on most of my trips) Also the water is not like the colour of a cup of tea, more like OXTAIL SOUP, my colour after watching your videos is GREEN (with envy) Keep um coming and I’ll keep watching. Tight lines, Graham.

That Tench was in amazing condition. Nice one 😎👍

Well done Chris, TENCH ON A LURE 🤔Thank you

Bravo, have only ever caught tench using more “conventional” baits and techniques, but that one was a chonky one - must have got that way by being willing to snaffle whatever came along! It’s been many years since I fished for them but remember them as good fighters that like to stay deep. Very pretty fish and far from the easiest to catch, must be why I still have vivid memories of the days when they ended up in my landing net.

Brilliant job mate 👍

Blimey, fair play man that is an excellent catch!!

Chris - great challenge you set yourself and well done for bagging those Tench. The myriad of soft lures available, mimicking all sorts from either prey fish, crustaceans, bugs etc. etc., has opened lure fishing up to a wide variety of species away from the typical predatory ones - well done for proving that very point. It could potentially change the face of Lure fishing as more and more anglers will carry a far greater variety - and if the Pike / Perch / Zander aren't having it? - scale down with a grub and fish for what we would normally classify as a non predatory species to save the blank!

Great video Chris 👍🖖🎣

lol.. i keep going to wikipedia to see what fish you catch - except perch! good vids!

Congrats on the catch!

Hope you guys enjoy this ?? are you kidding ?? Absolutely 💯 % top of the pile fishing Chris 🎣 Tinka Tinka one of my favourites of all time, if I could have a pound for every hour i have spent Tench fishing i would be a very rich man. Certainly an eye 👁 opener was this one, and the tungsten putty ? Well top idea mate, I was beginning to wonder just how you were casting as far as you were to start with. Patients testing getting through all those little Perch. Looks like you have a New bike as well 😀 ?? Nice one 👍 thanks Cheers Les.

Fantastic tench and an excellent tip about using tungsten putty 👍

Jesus I forgot to breathe watching that. Great job Chris.
