I recently attended a charity carp social at Norton Disney. It was in aid of the CHUF. Paul who organised the event tragically lost his grandson Charlie a few years ago. This was the 3rd successive social and each year it has got bigger with 2025 looking like the biggest 1 yet. The CHUF helped Paul and his family out through the very difficult time and still help families out daily. The Social ...

Pike 😁
Liked and subscribed pleasure to meet you sorry for catching all the fish 😂 see you again soon 👍
Haha top angling from yourself mate, amd I'm happy with the 1 fish tbh as I had to graft for that bite 😂. And yes definitely, I'm sure we can get on the bank at some point in the near future
Great weekend , great charity 👍
It really was, I'm looking forward to next year's event now haha
looks stunning
It genuinely is, 1 of my favourite places to fish
That's just silly. Everyone knows you have to pee in the water 😂
Shhhhhh, I've already given 1 secret away.... I don't want to be giving all of them away haha
Bell
All I can say to that is........ It worked
😂
That max kid sounds verry nice why is he not in the knew videos
Haha, he's coming with me tomorrow so he'll be making an appearance very soon
That max kid sounds verry nice why is he not in the knew videos
Great idea for a series of vids, keep up the good work!
Thank you, I need to get out and get some more filming done haha
Another brilliant watch mate
Cheers mate, been holding onto this footage for to long haha
Great vid again.Im suprised ive not bumped into you on the bank, fished most those waters up north. Have you a club ticket for anywhere?
No mate, I've justvbeen fishing he day tucket waters for past couple of years, before that I spent most of my time on the canals. Plans are in motion to buy a van to convert and go on a tour haha
I like those day ticket waters but getting a bit expensive now. Canal is what I grew up on, love it. Very hit and miss these days. Either that or I'm getting old and lazy
Van trips would make a great blog. I'll look forward to them.
@@matthewmiller8048 forrest fishing tales goes mobile 🤣
@matthewmiller8048 you're right, I've fished the canals all my life but they've been on the decline the last 10 years. I think this year will be a lot more focused on river fishing i think. Amd also a few trips upto the Highlands for some piking
Class content mate keep it up am going to wyreside soon
Wyreside has been kind to me the few times I've fished it. Its a lovely place so best of luck
Class mate just came across your channel
Cheers mate, I appreciate that. The channel been here for a good few years now. Unfortunately I've not been able to fish much for the past 6 months but I'm finally getting back at it. I'll have a gander at your channel too mate...
Good bream from the canal.
It was a nice, unexpected surprise haha
I feel sorry for you even though I have 15subs
You feel sorry for me? Whys that?
Nice one mate, hard place to fish its never easy, but thats what makes us come back :)
I've fished a here times over the years and I was hoping to fishing quite a lot this season but to many obstacles came up which meant I couldn't give it the time needed. It's undoubtedly q of the most beautiful places to fish though.
just a little tip for you - camera wise -- when you do those panning shots, just get the focus (on infinity typically) then either lock it off or flick the switch to Manual focus, then you won't get those annoying jitters where the AF tries to reset. 🤩
Hi, I appreciate the feedback. My camera skills/knowledge aren't the best. Plus the whole thing is filmed via my mobile phone. Do the phone cameras have this function? Maybe I should look at buying a proper camera
@@fftfishing you can shoot in manual on most phones, but not so sure about AF. If you check through instructions it may be an option. Anyway, that's the cure for the AF jitter on panning which is definitely a known issue.
@ianchappytube I shall have a play around before my next outting. Thanks again
What a blast !! Great session !!
Certainly was, much better to spend 4 hours on the bank rather than 4 hours on the sofa at home haha
Three things from an old pike killer; 1- Pike are always on the break, where bays with feeder creeks drop into deeper water. They will usually be at the bottom of the break, in the crease, you can reach from the corner. 2- Catch a smaller one of those trout, and bait that up, since Pike that are get lots of fishing pressure get super smart, and will take natural bait better. 3- Big smart Pike can feel that lead weight you're throwing, try taking those off. Great video and good luck out there .. From Alaska
Thanks for the feedback, and I fully agree with your comments. Unfortunately the water I was fishing doesn't allow you to use the trout that are in the water and only frozen baits bought on site can be used. I do also do free lining although the distant I needed to get into the deeper water where the shelf falls down wouldn't be reachable without the use of the lead. The rig is set up in a way though where the pike can take line without feeling any resistance. So we do what we can to try and bag a gig 1 haha. I'm glad my audience stretches beyond the shores of the UK. Tight lines my friend
@@fftfishing Yeah brother, there's nothing like it when the water goes flat calm, like it was for you that second day, and you're waiting for that monster lurker to pick your offering up. Tight lines to you too !!
Hi mate, think that was me out in the boat but I was after pike on the fly not trout 👍 enjoyed the vid. Cheers!
Haha no way.... did you manage to get anything? From what I could see over the 2 days there didn't seem to be much action.
@@fftfishing had a pike of around a pound on for a few seconds that took at the side of the boat thrashed and come away and one other missed pluck. Tough gig! Keep the videos coming mate and tight lines!
@Smuttleydog it certainly was a tough gig, and I'll certainly be making some more videos. I have a a project going on that I've been doing for 9 months now but it's not finished. But should be a good watch. Tight lines
Decent watch this mate thought you was going to show us loads of fish after the start
Haha sometimes that's just how it goes. I'm currently putting together a personal best special and theres plenty of fish caught but I've still got work to do on it haha
Peg2 in my eyes is best on the lake
Yeah its a good peg mate, as you've got the shallows to your left dropping into the deeper water so the back margin seems to be the start of the patrol route. My favourite peg is the last 1 in the basin but It's always taken haha
There aren't any big waters near me. I travel south to get to these lakes and it's a bit of a trek, working full time and having 4 kids doesn't allow me the time to travel further afield. I agree partly with what you say although to ban them?? These waters have their place and enable a lot of people to get out and fish
Good video. I fish the same areas and a few more on the canal. Had them to 19lb. I blanked a few times when i started to pike fish again. Very moody that canal but they are there.
Thanks mate, and I can believe that there's fish of that size up there. I had a little session during the summer with a float after some perch and couldn't believe the amount of bream and roach that were km the marina so the food source is definitely there. I may have a session or 2 on the marina this winter but I'm focusing more on the rivers and lochs up Scotland to try and find a monsters. The campaign is starting in a couple of weeks so hopefully I'll have a few videos to upload between now and the end of the pike season
@@fftfishing I keep meaning to try up the locks. They will be there. Going to try killington soon, maybe next week, how I found your channel. Best of luck in your angling, I'll look forward to more videos
@matthewmiller8048 Good luck on Killington mate, hopefully it will produce a fish or 2 for you 👍
Sean Dyche 48hour carp fish, Love it pal hahaa 👍
Being a burnley fan, Sean dyche is my hero 😂😂😂😂

Congrats on the PB, cracking fish👍
Cheers mate, appreciated.... hopefully I'll be able to breaknit again this season
Nice fish Danny!
@philipkemp6610 thanks mate, it was a belter 👍
Some boy that Phil always catching fish! 🤣
Rumour has it, he eats trout pellets for his breakfast..... it is just a rumour though.....
In saying that we don’t have barbel in Ireland they look like a great fighting fish 🎣 😊
They're the hardest fighting fish in the UK. Unfortunately now the pike seasons pretty much done until early October so the piking videos will be on the back burner and the carp gear will be getting dusted off haha
Well enjoy your carp season and I’ll see you back piking in October tight lines pal
Same to you mate 👍👍
Good to see you back 😊 but I’d much rather the pike fishing 😂
ua-cam.com/channels/3gXM2Yw3xNA1UIUsHr3uww.html
Think you need to buy a set of scales lad.. never seen 19lb that 4th fish
Haha, I think I forgot to tare the scales with this 1 👍
Any new videos coming?
Hi mate, I'm not sure when the next vid will be up. I've been mad busy and also had a family holiday to disneyland so not really had chance to do much. I've had 3 mini sessions on the canal which I'm putting together as part of a canal special but I've 7 more sessions to film for it to be complete. I have a 3 day tripped booked barbel fishing on the trent mid February but if the conditions aren't right then we'll be heading upto a loch in Scotland for the pike so that could possibly be the next video. If I can mamge to squeeze in a day session before then I'll certainly get a video done.
@@fftfishing no worries pal just like your content 😃
I appreciate that mate, the canal special should be good once it's fully filmed
@@fftfishing canals in Dublin Ireland are a tough nut to crack but if you put the time in and can take the heart break for most of the sessions blanking 😭 they do trow up the odd nugget or 2 🤣😂🤣
Can I ask, what it is you are distance casting to? Have you used a sonar or depth finder? Or are you just casting to range because it gets deeper? Thanks
Hi, I spent a day in the summer with a marker rod. There's a steady decline until you hit around 60 yards then the decline gets steeper so anything beyond 60yards is getting you to where you really need to be (without the use of a bait boat)
That perch would have been used straight away as I've caught loads of pike on them.
