Bro, no worries at all! I'm glad I was able to help you somehow! If you need anything just let me know and I'll be there😁 thank you so much for helping me and putting me onto that fish. It was an unforgettable experience that run, even though the fish went into the snags and I ended up losing it. It was really nice to meet you, I had a good time, the banter was 😂 Maybe we'll manage to meet again and go fishing in the future 🤜🏼🤛🏼 Wish you all the best mate!
Dude without a doubt! I’ve just moved in to the new house today, so as soon as this weather sorts itself out, it’s game on!! Ps. I totally spaced on sending you that footage… Been all over the place with the house move recently. My apologies mate
@TheIllustratedAngler that's what I'm talking about! Glad to hear you already managed to find a place for you and your family! Yeah we'll sort something out for sure! No worries bro! That's not important, you just focus on the priorities!🤜🏼🤛🏼
It’s a shame 2 out of the 3 were foul hooked. This is why they banned lure fishing for cats on my local waters because people were deliberately cranking the baits along the bottom to foul hook them 😞
Yeah. I do think there’s a good chance both of those were hooked in the mouth/pad to start with though. I’ve had it happen to me where I’ve seen a fish hooked in the mouth at the start of the fight and by the end it’s transferred it to its flank/fin. I think with lure fishing with barbless singles, hook holds will be a little sketchy. So bound to pop a few off and with the length of the fish there’s a lot of body to then foul hook as the hook leaves the mouth.
No disrespect to you my friend but I wouldn’t fish that lake if you payed me Check out my comments on blank master from the other day Anything to do with the evil that John Ellis is doing is a no go for me Sorry
I totally get your point. And I think any lure/Pred angler worth their salt would say how much they despise the widespread destruction MEM et al cause on our canals. But, this option does at the very least give these fish a home without them being destroyed. It’s not ideal at all, but in my mind it is a slightly better option. Plus the fact, Tony, who runs Houchins, really is one of the nice guys in angling. And I’m more than happy to support him.
@@TheIllustratedAngler bless you pal yea your right but if you could c the devastation the crt are causing it would upset you to the core They are also taking large carp and pike to stock their own waters They are destroying our fishing I just need everyone to no what’s going on Cheers 🍻

The corner where the aerator is has snags, some nice fish well done lads 👏🏻🎣
Yeah, unfortunately we found that out the hard way… 😂
@@TheIllustratedAngler wounded. Loads of old pipes and snags in that corner, had it myself 🙈
25cm ribbed natural/beige and grey colour, bounced slowly along the bottom in the Rhine got me a 1.85mtr 50kg Catfish
Excellent! I do sort of wonder how much difference colour makes?? When you consider how “poor” their eyesight is meant to be 🤷♂️
Cats don’t care about lure color
Where is this lake please looks stunning
Colchester in Essex
Very entertaining!
Thanks mate!
