  • This session I hit a wild part of the canal in search of one of my all time favourite course species. The Tench! In the hopes of catching my first one or two of the year. I go through my methods and tactics before getting into the fishing and catching some real quality fish! Hope you enjoy!

    The red dots on the 1st Tench is marks that they get from being damaged whilst breeding during the spawning season. They are a minor thing that clears up pretty quickly. Great video, thanks.

      Do you have a source for that? I have never seen this before in over 30 years of fishing, I plugged the symptoms into ChatGPT and it had this to say:
      "Tench with red spots could be an indication of a bacterial infection called "red pest". This disease is caused by the Aeromonas salmonicida bacteria and is commonly seen in fish populations in freshwater canals. The red spots are actually areas of internal bleeding and are a result of damage to the fish's blood vessels caused by the bacteria. The infection can be fatal if left untreated, so it is important to monitor fish populations and take appropriate action if red pest is suspected."
      ChatGPT being ChatGPT, I asked if there was any other cause:
      "While red spots on tench can be a sign of the parasite Trichodina, there can be other causes as well. Some of the other possible causes of red spots on tench in freshwater canals include bacterial infections, viral infections, fungal infections, or even physical injuries."
      You say this is due to damage, how does that manifest? I would expect a couple of bigger areas of damage rather than hundreds of tiny spots? No?
      Cheers.

      Chop a tree down and make a swim 😂 there's always fish to be found though. Fish on a wide bend somewhere on your canal, using bread on the bottom. Try different spots until you find a few good ones 👍 GL

    • @Catonkey1
      @Catonkey1 Před rokem +3

      honestly mate thats what its like near me, but most of the fish I catch are in the middle of no where, maybe by the odd tree. Nothing like these YT videos portray. I think I've caught one fish by a lock/bridge in the last 7 months.

    • @dibdabdub64

      Theres only 2 canals in Ireland. And both very over fished. Lots of fish like small rudd/roach /perch. Watching ginger years an always amazed the quality of the canals. From my experience here the big rivers/lakes hold the larger fish.

    • @Lunatix246
      @Lunatix246 Před rokem +1

      The canal near me is pretty much dead, aside from pike and roach. It used to be full of perch and carp with a few tench and bream. Years ago I even caught a couple of either sea trout or salmon parr in it.

You could have had it as your Plan B and gone back there for the last hour. Hopefully I will be in amongst the Tench on Sunday, fishing on a new lake that I've never fished before but have heard some stories of the resident Tincas.☺
