  • This session I hit the canal with the KVD Sexy frog in the hopes of getting some real up close slow-mo takes from these savage pike. I wasn't disappointed! The pike (and perch) we're really fired up and I managed some really awesome blow-ups! Some of which were right in front of the camera! To top the session off I even managed my biggest ever topwater pike right and the end of the session. Awesome stuff!

    I assure you the uploads will start to get more frequent over the coming weeks. I have tried to get out course fishing over the last couple weeks, but its been really tricky due to certain fish species spawning and crystal clear waters making it difficult. Coming up I have plans for a tench video, trout video and canal carp video, so I'm going to be grafting to make those over the next couple weeks. For now you can enjoy this action packed topwater pike session! If you want to keep up to date with up and coming videos feel free to follow my instagram in the description where I post several times a week!

      It's so sad that we have to live with thieves, I just hope it wasn't another angler, I would of left it at the wall of the towpath and then if I didn't come across any other angler's I probably would of asked on Chris's page and hope that someone claims it, what would the be the chances of it being Chris's ,hmm. Probably wouldn't of got back to the owner but it would make me feel better. God I hate thieves💩.🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

    i've watched your video a couple of times and although i do spin for pike i've never tried the floating frog, so i bought a couple to try them and headed out today on a scottish highland loch with my pal 2 hours from home, we started off on deadbaits for 3 hours but it was'nt happening today so we got the spinning rods set up and both thought we'd give the frogs a go out of curiosity, without exaggerating we both had easily 50 takes each, fish on, fish lost and smashes in an 8 hours session, we only landed 4 each but our excitement levels were sky high, what a fantastic way to fish for pike! most of the takes came fairly close in or in 3-4ft of weedy water, absolutely fantastic fun with some really savage takes, some gentle takes and loads of big wakes coming to the frog, my best fish was around the 14lb mark but what a great fight, we could'nt believe the amount of times we bent into a fish only for them to throw the hook! i would recommend this method to anyone thinking of trying it, i got a couple of nice photos of the good fish which had a full stomach, i wish i could've posted a photo on here for you to see it!

    @raymondthompson1476 Před 3 měsíci

    Hi Chris. Another tip regarding top water frogs, which you may know already, but anyway, something I learned watching the American bass fishing videos, is that it's possible to soften, or 'soften up' as they say, frog lures by popping them into a pan of just off the boil water for a minute or so. It does work (and with those tougher soft plastic of most types too) and I find I don't have to widen the hooks so much as it's easier for the fish to bite down on them. Any problems blame The Yanks, I'm just the messenger. Regards. Raymondo.

    You got me into lure and frog fishing - had identical scenario to you last week, chasing jacks on an abandoned old lake by my home and got smashed by a lump that was too big to go in my net. After a fight I got it close enough to chin- measured against the landing net & pole it was 1.3m so a tidy mid double - thankfully didn’t need to wade 😁 So exhilarating on light gear - thanks for all your inspiration 👍

      Same here hooked something in my local lake on a small 5cm lure. Had it on for 15 mins and never even saw it! Stripped about 60 yards of line off. I was thinking oh god this will be to big for the net as a 15lb didn't leave much room the day before

      @@tcg1_qc - owned by a club 20yrs ago & full of specimen carp, tench, bream, pike, etc. Land sold to a brewery and lake sold to a private company. Neither did anything with it (tax relief fiddle) so it silted up, trees and reeds grew uncontrolled, loads of people trespassed and stole huge numbers of fish. Now if you fight your way to the odd clear patch you can still find odd gems but it’s really tough and there aren’t many fish left. It’s really sad to see.
