Pike fishing with Deadbaits and Floats - The Totally Awesome Fishing Show
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 лют 2013
- The Totally Awesome Fishing Show hits the water again! This time with their own "old school" technique showing you how to catch Pike using the twitched float method, how to make the trace and the pike floats is shown by Graeme Pullen, before they take a short 3 hour session to try and catch one for the camera. This time film editor Mike Pullen tries to raise his P.B Pike level to double figures. This episode follows hard on the heels of their now famous Pike fishing with lures, Pike fishing with twitched sprats and sprats versus sardines films. The easy to follow style, and "shoot as they catch" technique will make this one to watch. There is some AWESOME underwater footage of pike, plenty of tackle talk, and some rod-bending Pike action! Filmed and edited inside 48 hours, it goes to show just how productive this father and son due are when it comes to catching fish. The Totally Awesome Fishing Show really is the best all-round angling program with loads of different species.

Will see what we can plan in.But the winter has been bad so we have a lot of catching up to do in the next couple of weeks before the season shuts.Keep watching,as we never know what we will target from one week to the next.I'm off to Hayling beach tomorrow to try and catch something and finish a shore film,then next day it should be trotting on a river for world record Dace.Keep watching.
That's a nice pike. Good catch. We know the methods work, that's why we use them. Basic is best.
Good to look back at these old films, farther and son out enjoying a bit of fishing. Hope I get to do that 1 day.
Well we have to say they worked well, Thanks for posting them to us!
Thanks Barney, sorry for late response. Best to try different retrieving techniques, Pike are quite slow feeders in cold temperatures so a slow retrieve would work best, even better try twitching it like we do with our twitching sprats video, can be very effecting with the right lure.
Set the float about half to three quarters of the depth.And the depth might not be to the bottom as there could be weedbeds.I advise that setting in whatever band of clear water you have before weedbeds/lake bed etc.The pike will generally be down near the bottom and will strike from below.Good luck,and send Mike a picture of you make a catch.Any fish,we aren't obsessed with big fish here at Totally Awesome as we appreciate ANY FISH !!!
Thanx graham, totally awesome video this is one of my favorite methods. Keep em coming .
Totally awesome video! This is really the best fishing show I've come across on youtube. Cheers from Norway! ^^
Thanks! Glad you enjoy it
Some people like to descale their baits, but I think a lot of the flash is in the scale itself.
Caught my first Pike last year on home made floats using the twitching method. I glued two corks end on end and bored a hole through them, painted them with float paint and fed my main line through them using shot at each end to set my depths. First time out, I chucked the bait along side a weed bed next to a weir and was amazed to see a Pike dash out and take the dead bait (Silver Sillago) after only a few twitches. This is now my favourite method :)
Glad you liked the video, good luck and post any pictures on our facebook page Totally Awesome Fishing
totally awesome underwater footage guys
Watched this vid the night before my trip, went fishing in the morning, and after a 20 minute struggle, I managed to pull in a beautiful 18 pounder. Thanks a lot for the tips! They really worked wonders!
thanks for a good bit of pike fishing tactics
Fixed depth by either a split shot or a tied stop knot above the float.This sets your depth otherwise the float would just slide right up the line when you cast.You can even fix stop knots either end of the float if you wanted
Thanks guys, im still buzzing!
- Mike
They worked a treat.Thanks.
Brilliant watch
Check out our latest beach fishing for beginners,Part 3 The Wessex rig .That setup should get you fish off the piers,but try and use shrimp for bait,smaller hooks,even half a shrimp.Tackle shops should sell them over there.Frozen shrimp will do.
cheers Matt! It's a great technique!
Deadbaits or lures will work.I had success with a red over silver Veltic spinner years ago.I think it was a size 4.But you need a bit of weight like swan shot or Wye lead to keep it low in the current.You need good clarity conditions as well.
Awesome video great tips! Graham pullen is a legend!!
Thanks Guys, totally awesome!
one of the best pike videos ive saw. never caught a pike but havent half had a few goes an failed using wrong techniques. watched all your ta fishing vids an boy dont u guys know how to fish for predators. hopefully tomorrow with your twitching method using baby brown trout or a smelt may do the job! big thumbs up!
i like what this chap dose. good luck to him
I've only recently started Pike fishing, not yet tried dead baiting only been using lures up till now. Being winter time lures seem to be less effective, meaning I should probably switch to dead baiting. Going to give this technique a go next time I'm out on the water... Great vid guys.
Cheers guys looking forward to the weekend to try the twitching float method appreciate the advise thank you
Thanks Andy
No,rarely as I don't try to make the bait land in Hawaii. I cast where I think the pike are,and that will be close to mid range .I use a much "softer" cast,sort of tossing the bait througfh the air,rather than power-whipping it to shreds .The sprats are softer,and do sometimes come off,but I fish them near features,and that generally means close.My rods are soft,not like stiff carp and pike rods you seem to get today.
Graeme you utter legend!!!
Great technique, thanks Graeme, gonna try this on a river in Holland
Another great video......well done and thanks
That was probably only about three feet, but it all depends on the depth,weedbeds etc. I would say set it at a third to three quarters of any depth your are working, as most pike will be down deeper and then see the bait above them. The only time I would stay really shallow is if they are "fry-feeding" where they have pushed baitfish into a bay, or near the surface.
Hi graeme,
Im just back from fishing for pike..I used your method of twitching sprats and it worked a charm..caught two big pike.You have inspired me!
Thank you very much
Enjoyed thanks for that Fellas.
Really cool guys!
Thump up!
Thank U for releasing it !!!
I've been using this method on a small canal with smelt. it's totally awesome two fish in 20 mins cheers guys 👍
Thanks!
Great fishing show guys at ta fishing, keep up the good work
Awesome!
This was totally awesome
this is your best video so far ! cracking ! well done fellas and congrats on the pb !
16lbs is a beauty!! Excellent technique!
I wanna go fishing with this guy!!!! Great vids mate, well done!
Im going to try this today.
That's one hell of a big fat Tarpon Fish.
awesome awesome awesome!!!!! LOVE YOUR VIDS!!!! cheers from the states!!
Fantastic fish 🎣 m8
that was one monster pike! great video as always.
great video thank you
He is huge wow !!!!!!
Great looking pikes
Same as always,about 40lbs multistrand as you can never guarantee only small pike will take it.
i love ur pike fishing videos plz keep making them thanks! :)
Brilliant
Private fishery . Just a one-off chance.We were lucky.
Awesome Comment! Thanks!
That underwater camera is phenomenal! Great fish too!
I'm definitely trying this, it looks so effective that it makes me wanna grab the bait :-p Thanks for the vid and the laughs as always! :-)
Totally Awesome video! Oddly that's what i do!
Yes, or totally barbless, or crush the barbs with forceps rocked back and forth over the barb. Just leave a barb on one hook of the treble to hold the bait on.
Glad they help, we do a lot of sea fishing too check out our UK sea fishing playlist on our channel homepage
Legend
I can't stop twitching!
Those are huge
Thanks going to use it in Ross
No reason why not.
That is 1 holy big 1
I love all your shows. But when i'm hunting pike on the fly i only keep 2 or 3 of the small males and then i release all the other pikes i'm catching. But again i love your shows i find a lot of inspiration in them. Best regards from Denmark
I have put a mackeral in the microwave to thaw of for my ferrets, your not alone there mate...
nice info
Thanks for the reply whats the best depth to set the float at or should i just plum the bottom prior to fishing. Sorry im new to pike fishing thanks again
also, should i use a stiff or flexible quivertip?
Brilliant video, you are barking but I think you get your point over mate, ps love your Finch Farm shot too, so much so have started over there and thanks for your advice.
Definitely will be! Keep up the good work I envy your Job =)
I use Kinder eggs for my pike floats. I have 5 kids so I have enough to last me a lifetime. The older Kinder eggs which you had to screw in weren't the best but now they have a groove for your line to go in and they pop into place. im sure im not the only Pike angler to do this.
Do you really? Lol
Not the only one anymore haha
Never used them as floats, but back when I was a teenager, we used them as bobbers for bottom fishing, drill a hook into the top, put a few splitshot inside and hang into the mainline, like you would with climbers nowadays. For beach fishing we used those yellow lemon juice bottles, using the same technique, so your neck wouldn't hurt from staring at the tips all day/night.
Brilliant love all your vids but pikes my fish at the moment
i caught a 20 pound pike here
in ireland on lough ree using this
method thanks alot :) i was using dead roach
and perch :)
tanks for the twitching video caught my first pike today after watching your rig tying video
my fish was between 10-12lb on a joey mack but will be back out on saturday twitching instead of watching reel to start pulling
great tip and keesp up the great work.....off to convert some sea floats to the bottom swivel type.. Sardines and Mack planned for baits :)
totaly awesome and gtrats to son on pb
Lol was flicking through the book at the beginning really necessary!
Hi, Nathan is working in the south somewhere,but a few weeks ago left for something like 6 months fishery work in Thailand.I have no idea where he goes from there.
Works for me in Colorado USA.
Great video (y)
Ty for fast reply. Ye old reels are great, i have few shimano 3000, old dam quick (one of my favorites). I have little collection of really old reels manufactured in 1940-50, and some of them aren't easy to find :)
I bought a couple of savage gear soft 4 play dirty roach, ready to fish, with the built in treble hook system off out soon to give them a go
For using trebles do you recommend semi barbless?
Hi Kevin, we have tried looking but still cant find them. Graeme is still running on old stock of Partridge vb hooks, dont know if they sell them anymore but I am sure another company will. Try typing it into your search engine
good video...roll on the warmer weather
25.09 look at his face.....dont fall in dont fall in
In the spring time what fish would you expect around a mouth of a river opening to a lake? It is around 10 feet deep.One last thing what lure/live bait would you recommend?
What trace would you recommend for pike below 10lbs
Franky
Hello Graham what test curve was the rods?
Can you use sprats for this deadbait tactic?
Another super video Sport. My only gripe, which applies to all of your shows, and most other fishing videos, as a matter of fact, is the irritating music/noise that punctuates the interesting bits. In my mind I read TA Fishing as 'Totally Awful (Music) Fishing'! Other than that though, great show. Regards. Ray
Don't know any modern reals to be honest. I use "old school" stuff from 30 odd years ago and they are still going strong. However, I have used Daiwa reels for Bonefishing in Florida and they will never get a better test than that. I think you will be ok with that make.
I'd like to use this method.. but the lake I fish is maybe 4-5ft deep and has thick weed in almost all areas, so I'm not sure what's the best way to fish. Float seems best but any advice would be great
Very nice! Can you plan a vid fishing deep gravel pit Pike?!
Great video 👍 Do you puncture the swim bladder by the roach?
does the drag have to be loose or quite tight/stiff?
Anywhere there are pike.Lakes,Reservoirs,Pits,Rivers,Canals.
