Cheap Easy Method Catches Specimen Canal Fish!

  • Well todays aim was to use a cheap easy method to catch some specimen canal fish. The main target being roach and rudd. This session was more of a guilty pleasure trip than anything. I'd even considered not filming as I really do just enjoy chasing and stalking big roach with simple methods it can be really rewarding. The chosen method for today was surface and slow sinking bread crust. Super cheap and really easy to do. No complicated rigs just a small float for extra indication and a hook for the bread. Real simple, real easy, fun session.

    Always had a real soft spot for the larger Roach and Rudd, the colouring of the Rudd being especially pleasing and the peppy Perch like fighting of the Roach. Used to fish every free min I had until work got hold of me and my tackle got half inched, watching these videos really brings back the hunger for those early mornings and lazy evenings on the bank! Great content!

    Brilliant footage and commentary Chris. Excellent net of your intended species. Cheap and simple way to catch fish. All you have to do is put the time in to find them, which isn’t as easy as people think. I do a lot of sight fishing in NZ and when you hook a fish doing this method you really can’t describe the awesome feeling you get. Hopefully other anglers will try this after watching this video.

    Well Chris wonderful days fishing for you and great viewing for us. Some really good fish caught on what we used as kids, (my mum was always moaning about the bread bin being empty again).
    Down here on the Way Navigation, there's plenty of Roach and Rud to be caught and as you say 8/12oz the best.1 pounders are rare. Was wondering about catching a decent size Dace plenty on the canal and river but getting a large one is elusive..'go on show us how' 🤔.
    Always eager to catch the latest video.

    What a great session!😀 It's lovely to see you enjoying catching so many good quality Roach, with the number of Pike in your canal I'm surprised they weren't all injured in some way! I'm not surprised you started catching the Rudd when it was getting darker; I remember my sister and I catching our first Rudd from a lake when it was getting quite late🌛 on exactly the same method you used today - Floating Bread🍞!! We'd only ever caught Carp on that before so it was a great way to end the evening! Thanks for sharing your fishing adventures with us!😄

      Thanks buddy! There's literally millions of small roach and rudd in the local canal. There must be like 100,000 roach to every pike 😂 Probably a bit of an over exaggeration, but you get the gist, so you very rarely get silvers with battle scars.

    I grew up roach fishing on the lee navigation canal in the 70's and caught decent fish to about 1lb 12oz on hemp. You'd be lucky to catch a 8oz one now the stretch having been poached of virtually everything. I'm now based in cardiff and would love to be able to have a day like that. I catch loads of carp on freelined bread plus occasional bream and the odd roach but there is nowhere where that sort of sport is available. You are so lucky! plus you're a very able fisherman! great vid

      I go on the Leeds Liverpool, it's crystal clear at the moment. I think the weeds and plants that grow, through spring and summer filter the water. Usually in autumn and winter it's like chocolate milk, think this is due to the amount of rain in those seasons, washing mud in from fields at the side.

    Chris - some beautiful Roach there, taken on what many would describe as an 'unusual method'...
    Big Roach are awesome creatures - back in the early 80's (when I was younger!), we used to fish for Livebait on the Regents Canal with poles over the top of the dying marginal weed - small pinch of flake looking for small roach to go Piking with. On so many occasions, I caught Roach between 1lb - 1lb 8oz - and believe it or not, we HATED these fish as we put them back because they were too big for livebait!
    Bread has always been deadly for Roach - those days were before the advent of the 'Breadpunch' for us - but when we found it, we slaughtered the Roach, both on pole and waggler - livebaiting had stopped for us - we simply enjoyed bagging up on these lovely fish!

    I highly recommend trying elderberries this time of year, float or ledgering them. They are free bait and they normally separate the larger roach from the small roach as well
