Thanks buddy, persistence is key keeping it simple Fairplay Play well done nice fish 🎣😁😁 Only started watching the start of this. Looking forward to watching the rest later. Thanks for the video
I love fishing this pit. Very relaxed and you have the added bonus of the River Blackwater, literally 20 yards behind you...Great video...I'm going there tomorrow morning, early doors...😉
Hi ,nick live from the river wye this is are second day of the opening of the river season yesterday was a cracking day caught plenty of barbel and chub,the fishing is superb,just set up ready to cast in at 9o'clock i love this place it's pure fishing heaven have a great season nick and keep safe mate tight lines,Derek
Excellent video nick some real nice tench caught i must admit i love a spot of tench fishing the power they have is awesome on the right set up the river sounds good mate great watch as always cheers and tight lines
Glad you enjoyed it. I have access to a few more really good tench venues from 16th June so there will almost certainly be more tench to come! Good luck if you’re out on the river next week! Thanks for watching 👍🎣
Love the fact you fish for so many different species... i love tench although I've rarely targeted them specifically..... had a few nice ones when carp fish!
Hi Nick some beautiful tench there very nice well fished sir them pelletos i just use quick stops to mount them on the hair they work a treat,like you said it's very busy on the banks i have done lots of fly-fishing small streams for trout just to get away from the busy banks,This coming monday i off to the river wye get there tueday morning fist light on the 16th i love the wye especially the barbel bring it on the river season yes take care Nick and stay safe have a great river season Nick,Alien
River Wye on the opening day! Oh wow! Hope you bag a huge barbel mate 👍 Great tip regarding the quick stops. I’ll give those a try for sure! Thanks for watching mate. Be lucky 👍🎣
Really enjoyed your video and have subscribed to your channel. Hope you get to make one on Frensham too as I am currently struggling tench on there., albeit I have left it very late in the season to start going for them. Hope to see you down there.
Thank you, so very much appreciated 🙏 Yes they are Opportunist rods. 10ft 2.25tc. I think the AllRounders or the Neoteric Rods in 1.75tc would be better for Tench tbh. Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
Hi Nick, love you're vids, I am about to start specimin fishing and want to go for tench, what rod would you recommend ? What are you using on this video.
Another enjoyable vid mate nicely done, I was also gonna try summer pit this spring to get amongst them. Can you tell me what lake you tried the the overnighter on right at the last...thanks😉
Excellent Nick, you’ve a great relaxed style and you’re obviously super dedicated. Hard work pays off. Wish us luck in our search for a 20lbs pike in Northern Ireland 🎣🍀
Thank you. That’s very kind of you to say 🙏 I just subscribed to your channel so hope to see a 20lb Pike there at some point! Catching a big croc like that isn’t easy so good luck! A really hope you do it!!!!👍👍👍
Another great vid nick, find it enjoyable watching you throughout the fishing year after different species.just wondering why you chose yateley with so many good pits up your way . Lovely to walk around historic lakes but the pressure! Not for me either .
Agreed a puzzling choice at best. Perhaps just to say he fished yateley albeit summer pit?For the record Nick the crucians in summer pit which you mention were never original stockings, they were moved from one of the other yateley waters illegally and placed into summer pit by one of the head guys of RMC angling at the time, Mr Ian Welch. P. S last venue Nick was on was obviously Mill Lane. Bit of a jump up from summer pit for a proper tench challenge as I'm sure you found out. I guess it will be back on to the upper lea for opening season and some runs water barbel fishing to look a "hero" and competent..
Certainly wasn’t to say I’d fished Yateley 😂😂😂😂 Fished a lot of the pits over my way. Nice to spread your wings sometimes. I’m killing time waiting for Frensham tbh, on the same ticket.
@@Lifeonthebank why Frensham. Sure its a nice water but if you're after a double figure tench you'd be better sticking it out on the tougher venue at Mill lane really.
Cheers mate. Yeah, got there eventually. Often the way on new venues. My head is a bit all over the place regarding the river! I’m so excited that I don’t know where to start!!!! 😂🎣
I have only got a small amount of pellet on the flat bed feeder so I'm not exactly spreading lots of bait all over the place. It's similar to move solid bags around to locate carp. I've found it's a good way to find where they are in the lake.
Nice video. I'm seriously itching to get back out. But the ridiculous amount of anglers out packing places out puts me right off. Social Distancing and lockdown just confirmed how anti social I am! 😂 good luck on your next outing.
Used to fish summer pit when LS had it, Cracking little lake. Then Farnham got hold of it !!! And now they've chucked a load of carp in there !! Wankers....... Good luck getting a tench out of Mill Lane, I tried and failed, They were there, Just not taking the bait..
Yeah, I don’t understand why they’ve put a load of small carp in it tbh. It makes no sense to me. I’ll be doing a few more sessions on Mill Lane, but it’s going to be tough. I did 2 or 3 sessions on it last year and blanked also. Feels like you’ve gotta go in with scales down carp tactics.
Thanks buddy, persistence is key keeping it simple Fairplay Play well done nice fish 🎣😁😁
Only started watching the start of this. Looking forward to watching the rest later. Thanks for the video
Very enjoyable video matey , watched it several times now 👍🏻
Cheers mate. Thanks for checking it out 👍👍👍
Hi Nick
Great video a few nice fish.
Always good to catch and have a good day or night on the bank.
Tight lines bud 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Yes enjoyed my short sessions on Yateley. I do love Tench. Be lucky mate. Thanks for watching 👍🎣
I love fishing this pit. Very relaxed and you have the added bonus of the River Blackwater, literally 20 yards behind you...Great video...I'm going there tomorrow morning, early doors...😉
How did you get on? Any good?
@Life on the bank followed your method, caught a 6.5 lb early in the session...beautiful fish..
😁😁😁 love that. Well done mate 🙌🎣
@@Lifeonthebank cheers...hoping to try again, early Sunday morning...I'm sure there must be a ten pounder in there 😉
Nice video. Tench are one of my favourite species. I always love how hard they fight.
Thanks! They really do fight hard. Currently targeting a bigger lake for hopefully a bigger tench!
Cracking vlog Nick Tench are my favorite fish keep them coming the vlogs well done.
Thanks for watching mate! Will definitely keep them coming!!! 👍🎣

Excellent video as normal, thanks mate
No problem at all mate. Have a great tench season this year!!! 👍👍👍

Nice fish that well done mate
Cheers! Can’t wait til spring!!!
Great vid as always 👍🏻
Thanks for watching mate 👍🎣
Great work mate
Cheers Dan. Good luck if you’re out on the river next week 👍🎣
I love catching tench. They can be very aggressive feeders here, smashing insects and they don't mind moving water here.
Really enjoyed your video and have subscribed to your channel. Hope you get to make one on Frensham too as I am currently struggling tench on there., albeit I have left it very late in the season to start going for them. Hope to see you down there.
Can’t believe that I didn’t get on Frensham again this year. Maybe next year mate. I got a bit caught up with my Crucian fishing! 👍
New subscriber. Cracking videos mate!!
James Top man!!! Thanks for checking them out!!! More to come 👍🎣
What kind of rods so you use in this video?
Thanks so far 🤗👋🏻
Would love to fish the place.
Hi nick what pellets do you use for the method feeder please
Sonubaits 8mm pellet-o’s on the hair. Scalded 6mm Spicy Sausage pellets on the feeder. 👍👍👍
Hello,, what size pellets do you scald to put onto the feeder?
I tend to use 6mm. 👍👍👍
Lovely video. Really like your ethos. Are those opportunist rods?
Thank you, so very much appreciated 🙏 Yes they are Opportunist rods. 10ft 2.25tc. I think the AllRounders or the Neoteric Rods in 1.75tc would be better for Tench tbh. Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
Great Video Nick some cracking fish too , really like the look of those reels what are they ? .
Korum Axis 4000 reels mate. Thanks for watching 👍🎣
Hi Nick, love you're vids, I am about to start specimin fishing and want to go for tench, what rod would you recommend ? What are you using on this video.
hey what was he fishing for, bream or tench
Hmmm ... Tench 🤔😂
Brilliant video Nick! What weight is the method feeder that you're using for tench mate?
Thank you mate. 45g in-line flat method feeder mate.
Still Big Tench In Jhonsons is their?
Never fished it but I'd like to try it for the crucians!
Another enjoyable vid mate nicely done, I was also gonna try summer pit this spring to get amongst them. Can you tell me what lake you tried the the overnighter on right at the last...thanks😉
Thanks mate 👍 Maybe DM me through another channel 👍
Mill Lane Farnham ticket
Reece, why do you think I asked him to DM me? 😂🤦 He did and he already knows.
@@Lifeonthebank Sorry don't know what DM means?
Direct Message. Ha ha, no worries mate. Thanks for checking out the video. 👍
Great vid, going to really focus on tench next spring. Are you using the same pellets on the method as the hookbaot?
Yeah, but I doubt it really matters mate. Sonubaits Pellet-Os 👌👍
Excellent Nick, you’ve a great relaxed style and you’re obviously super dedicated. Hard work pays off. Wish us luck in our search for a 20lbs pike in Northern Ireland 🎣🍀
Thank you. That’s very kind of you to say 🙏 I just subscribed to your channel so hope to see a 20lb Pike there at some point! Catching a big croc like that isn’t easy so good luck! A really hope you do it!!!!👍👍👍
Just subbed mate. What rod and reel you using?
The Opportunist by Korum. 10ft. Now switched to the Korum Trilogy rods 👍👍👍
Another great vid nick, find it enjoyable watching you throughout the fishing year after different species.just wondering why you chose yateley with so many good pits up your way . Lovely to walk around historic lakes but the pressure! Not for me either .

Many of our really decent local pits have waiting lists. Many of those waiting lists are currently closed. Just something else to consider here.
@@Lifeonthebank why Frensham. Sure its a nice water but if you're after a double figure tench you'd be better sticking it out on the tougher venue at Mill lane really.
Certainly unlocked the tench code eventually mate, good angling. 👍 love the doctor fish. Bring on the rivers 👍
Cheers mate. Yeah, got there eventually. Often the way on new venues. My head is a bit all over the place regarding the river! I’m so excited that I don’t know where to start!!!! 😂🎣
Barbed hook?
Barbless. Thanks for watching! 👍
When you are feeding in different places every 40 minutes wouldn't that spread ground bait all over
I have only got a small amount of pellet on the flat bed feeder so I'm not exactly spreading lots of bait all over the place. It's similar to move solid bags around to locate carp. I've found it's a good way to find where they are in the lake.
Fished Summer Pit 3 seasons running i am tench mad and that is the est producing venue i know
Not fished it this year but does contain some lovely tench. It was a bit of a shame those carp went in.
@@Lifeonthebank I fished it Sunday. Slow day 1 small mirror. Nobody was catching
Nice video. I'm seriously itching to get back out. But the ridiculous amount of anglers out packing places out puts me right off. Social Distancing and lockdown just confirmed how anti social I am! 😂 good luck on your next outing.
Cheers mate. Yes, could be worth waiting for it to all clam down. There's a lot of people out there fishing atm!!!!
Great video but MAN the amount of times I had to turn it down because of the MEGA loud music.
The video is 2 years old. It’s something I’m quite mindful of these days I hope! Hopefully it didn’t ruin the video for you! 🙏
@@Lifeonthebank not at all! Top angling
Just seen this.loads of carp in there now 😢😢😢
Used to fish summer pit when LS had it, Cracking little lake. Then Farnham got hold of it !!! And now they've chucked a load of carp in there !! Wankers....... Good luck getting a tench out of Mill Lane, I tried and failed, They were there, Just not taking the bait..

Jeez, who picks these soundtracks?
Obviously not your thing mate. Thanks for checking it out. Maybe not the channel for you. Good luck with your fishing.
@@Lifeonthebank no mate 👍 love tench fishing but, the music just doesn't suit the type of angling here.
Check out my recent uploads. Be interested if you feel the same. No harm done mate. All feedback is welcome 👍
