- Canal lure fishing - Watch this if you are struggling.
Inspired by my recent Northern Lure bash and a few comments from people who came, i decided to get out and try to make a video to help others who are struggling to catch fish on lures on the canals.
Don't forget to visit the Riverpiker shop

The problem is that so many people these days are into lure angling since the boom, most hot spots (locks) on the canals are high pressured. I've found myself heading to remote parts of canals away from people, walked over 10,000 steps the other day to catch 2 wasps and 2 Jack's. Buts that's fishing. Good to see you making videos again 😎🎣💯 tight lines 👍
This is so true. I've had to buy some good wellies.
Ayup Ian. Yeah mate that's the simple truth. If i google search around my house 5 miles i can spot loads of similar spots. I can also see lots of people living in these places and they are googling also. Not so many places to go at when we're all fishing the same spot. End of the day we're using bits of rubber and wood to trick fish and that's harder than a real bit of smelly bait.
Great reminder how difficult it can be some .
I learnt my basics from your videos a few years back.. glad to see you back 👍
good to hear mate. Hope you are catching a few
@@riverpiker had my pb 2lb 7oz 42cm perch not long back.. trying to pass the 3lb mark.. shame it wasn't winter because it had the frame of a 3lber!
Most no-nonsense angler on CZcams, nice one Paul 👍🏻
Thanks matey very much appreciate the comment🤘
Good video bud 👌 you were the first guy to inspire me. Good to see you back 💪
Glad to hear it! Hope youre catching plenty matey,
Good video. I used to think that in fishing some people just were ‘fated’ to catch more fish.
Now I know that some people have a good eye for details, they think through the situation and know their fish.
Useful video
Jimmy i think you are still right with that but maybe those people also have a combination of skill, desire, hard work and good luck!
Time on the bank helps.. along with location.
Honest as always! A fine example of many a perch fishers efforts on a promising looking stretch - jacks! If we could find them straight away every time, the magic of lure fishing for perch would be gone. For me, when all else fails, I reach for my collection of spinner baits.
Good stuff as usual Paul 👍
cheers Paul. Yeah it used to be so much simpler years ago. Rock up, chuck a lure, catch perch. These days it's not so easy.
They were stunning pike. Beautiful markings
Yeah buddy they are. I love how young pikes markings differ from older pike and also how clear water pike look. Their markings usually stand out much more.
Good point about trying to work out where the fish will be as in how deep in the water. That's the big thing with lure fishing is fishing the right depth.
Sure is Jimmy especially on these deeper canals.
Thx for them tips m8!! We learn everyday!!!
we sure do matey, and thanks!
Nice video with honest info like your no nonsense approach just good information found your videos useful when I started lure fishing if it was easy everytime we soon get bored trust me 3 sessions 3 blanks at present lol shop looks good too mate 😀👍
Great to hear you found the channel buddy. Plenty to catch up on. Tight lines bud
Great video mate, especialy for new predator anglers. Some great tips there.
Thanks buddy👍
Nice video mate, keep on doing the great job 👍
thanks buddy, hope you are catching a few
Good video. Shows it isn't a fish a chuck like some videos seem to show. It's been a right struggle to find the perch round there lately, even the match angles aren't getting many.
cheers bud. I'm sure there's a few about somewhere but too much pressure makes it hard and eventually many of them will just go somewhere else.
Great video keep it up cheers for all the advice 👍
Thanks, will do! Got part two to come on this matey and if i get time may even pop back and make a part 3 one day.
Another great video Paul. Good to hear you saying how canals are no longer easy due to the greatly increased popularity of lure fishing. I've really struggled to pick up a fish the last couple of winters - so much so I've started fly fishing. It's a bit easier when waters are regularly stocked !
Yeah Alan not like it used to be at all. Still plenty of fun to be had doing what we live doing but not as easy to keep bagging up
Try fly fishing the canals, not too many folk doing it so the fish haven’t wised up to fly presentations. A 7 weight trout rod is fine for small streamers for perch and jacks. And if that’s really not working try nymphs and small wet flies for wasps, roach, rudd etc. 👍
@@noblestsavage1742 interesting idea. Worst that can happen is that I blank - so no worse than usually happens anyway ! I was thinking backcast could be a problem on most stretches, but actually could be an opportunity to improve my roll casting - currently hardly ever use roll cast. Plus of course no need to cast big distances on a canal
@@alanhodgson7045 yes roll casting is your friend, also angle casts along the near bank as fish are often in there tight to cover. Also I overline my rod by one of two weights and I can cast the entire width with one backcast.
Perrsonally I have progressed away from canals they are becoming very pressured.
Thanks for the video I have an idea now and you need lots of patience God willing he will give them looking for the perch don't do a lot of it my sons like it pike more of and trout but this video is a help when I do go thanks again😊🙏👍
Trout tend to be a bit easier to catch especially if there's plenty of them. They hit pretty much anything. Pike aren't in so many numbers as other predators but you only need one to get your heart going. Enjoy the journey buddy
Another good video Paul
thanks matey, hope your'e catching a few
@@riverpiker just a few, been working, it’s hard to get out
Andy and isaac are really good friends of mine infact Andy was at mine the other day and didn't have enough good to say about ya pal great video
Nice one magtey they are good lads. Plenty of fish to come for those two over the coming years!
@@riverpiker couldn't agree more young isaac is brilliant with perch too
Great video paul, you still have an invitation to Leeds to smash some fish. 😃
cheers buddy i'll have to sort some time one day
Thanks for the mention Paul, useful tips ,
No worries buddy. You been out much? I've not been for a week or two now i need to get out
Fished that spot a few times, it get a good few lads on it unfortunately.
Wish got a pike in jersey ❤❤😊😊
thats my local canal, good fishing mate, i normally catch nothing lol
Hey Chris. Used to be a really great spot, still will throw up a nice fish or two but the pressure it gets is unreal from what it got years ago. Even if it's only one guy every day or two, the fishing will die off. I actually used to go here and make videos but then never use the footage cos i didn't want to spoil the fishing.
@@riverpiker yeah i doesnt seem real good fishing but it literally 500yrds from my house so its good if i just wanna quick session
Sheffield locks?
First. Had to do it. Thanks for uploading!
Got to be done matey! ha ha. cheers bud
Hi thanks for all your videos would like to tie my own wire traces when I'm perch and chubb fishing have to use wire as quite a lot of pike , could you recommend any for me please ?Would like to tie not crimp, thanks for any help
Hey buddy. That’s easy. I use cahira wire and also sell it on my webshop. Single strand or 7 strand and both can be tied really easy. I’ve also got a video showing you how. I’ll grab a link.

@@riverpiker hi thanks found your website fantastic I'm going for the multistrand wire , would also like to get the swivels also the stay lok snap but new to lure fishing so not sure which size I should get of both if you could help me it would be appreciated
Got any hard 4plays for sale? First version? Looking for the trout and the koi
No matey there aren't that many about now is there
24:47 "I like the Pike" ; )
We certainly do bud!
Get ya self a crazy blade. Dont people watch perch pro anymore
Nah, the waters they fish are insane compared to ours. similar to what i fished ten years ago in uk where most places didn't get fished with lures, you could catch on anything.
Cant understand shit😂what accent is this?
