Been canal fishing for about a month now and finally caught 3 perch this week. Bought all different lures but the one that did it was a 3g jig head with a 4cm green micro fry from fox rage. My brother used the same lure and got a perch, 4 small pike along with a decent one that must of been a few lbs and 30/40 inches( no tool to weigh or measure length)
Hey can anyone in the comments help please. My 11 yr old wanted to get into fishing, I know absolutely nothing. I dont some research and ended up spending ยฃ200 on kit for flaot fishing. We soon relaised it wasn't much fun spending the day trying to tie knots and put kn weights and loosing hooks not to mention sitting on the river all day it just wasnt fun for an 11 Yr old. However everyone else seemed to be doing this lure fishing walking the banks, casting our and moving on. This looks much more fun. Im trying to take the advice in this video on what to buy but im still struggling. I can't find 0.08mm braided line? The lines I can find are very cheap? The rods are either expensive or dirt cheap? Can someone point me in the right direction. I dont mind what I spend I just want to be able to grab a couple of rods and get out with my son and have fun. Thankyou
Simplest course of action involves only two steps. 1, buy 3/4 oz spoon that is either yellow or white. 2, go chuck it into the nearest waterbody that holds pike. This is basically how I learned to fish at the age of seven. Me and my younger brother would head to the river by ourselves with just our fishing rods and a small tuperware container with a few spoons in it. We also usually had a red wagon in tow, wich was used to haul home a few pike for dinner.
Great vid, many thanks. Me and my boy are new to this fishing. I bought a 10-30g rod (possibly by mistake) . Wanted an all-rounder, canal, pond, light sea.. watching though, think I should have bought a lighter rod if I want to do what youre doing here mostly. Do you think I could make it work without another rod purchase?
Hi, thnx for the wonderful video. For the rainbow trout fishing I've just ordered okuma psycho stick game 3-15 rod and okuma itx 2500 reel, daiwa jbraid 8 0.10 line and daiwa florocarbon 0.20 learder and some kind of mepps no1 and 2. Do you think they are ok??
With the braid I would actually disagree you said 10 lb but if your going for pike they will cut right through that and can easily rip it I personally use 20 lb braid
my local canals are very snaggy and don;t have a lot of good spots to cast from so lots of ledges a few feet away covered in stuff etc. So I''ve found jstuj a little los of sensitivity by going x4 with a 12lb line is what works best for me. My canals tend not to be to murky either so you can see fish really well which helps. And to compensate for the sensitivity I use an 8 foot drop shotting rod for my lures and spinning and you can feel everything from it.
Another brilliant tutorial guys – thanks! I learnt so much from it and have even made notes for me to refer to in the futureโฆ Canโt wait to start my lure fishing career/adventure in 2026! ๐ฃ๐ฃ
Huge thanks to Carl for inviting me and making such a good video ๐ Hope itโs inspired a few more people to give lure fishing a try ๐
What braid you use please?

How are the fish so chill for him but the fish for me the flap like mad
great video, could you please tell us which briad and what wire trace you use and would recommend – Thanks
Havent managed to get out fishing once this year. Sad times
this is chasing me a lot about fishing. I love it so much. Keep making videos like this. Teaching taste to fish.
Great video but am i correct in saying that zander should not be returned if caught ?
Is that in Whitchurch ? The canals?
I think you keep the fish out of the water way too long
Would a mackerel soft plastic shad work for those fish
Been to fishing 3 times in the last month, still cant catch shit ๐
What rod and reel setup is Carl using in this video?
What rod reel are you running and what braid
If i were to fish like that on my local cancal I would be pulling out shopping carts and bikes๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
bro i had on ecast with a pike lure on in my canal and a pike ripped my best pike lure with the line off straight away and i couldnt believe it
I wonder who heโs sponsored by?! ๐ค
May I ask what net youโre using

Hi First time angler here, I have a dumb question. I have a 1000 braid but what should I use for tying the lure and jig to the main line?
With the braid I would actually disagree you said 10 lb but if your going for pike they will cut right through that and can easily rip it I personally use 20 lb braid
Still thee month away from open season for pike fishing. Must stay strong
Hey mate how u filming with body cam
I thought we were meant to kill zander? Are they not damaging to native fish stocks ?
Btw what is the thing around your waist called and where do I get it from?
Could you tell me which Shimano 1000 series reel is being used.
Thx

Hi how often do change your lures? Do you vary from soft to crank baits?
I've had a pike take 1 single worm, was after perch
I realise the videos from a while ago but was wondering if you ever use your line clip for the accuracy in your casting. Tia
Thom, please can you share the exact model of Westin luggage belt
you are wearing in this video. I want that exact model?
You are the best fishing YouTuber well done and good luck fishing ๐ฃ
