- I woke up early unsure where to go. Ultra light perch fishing was an idea but I fancied something different. So I jumped in the car and headed off to a place full of childhood fishing memories. No idea what to expect, would the fish still be there? I was met with a truly stunning morning and the memories flooded back. This is what fishing is all about for me.

really nice place and a few really nice fish! great vid
+jack walberg cheers Jack
Great video, beautiful river, such a fabulous place to fish. Photography wasn't bad either 👌
Awesome video
Goprofishing thanks matey
Top Quality Video mate. Thanks!
Wonderful stuff pal
***** cheers bud!
Nice, well done mate
Cheers matey
That's a nice section of river with some just as nice fish to boot. It looks undisturbed just the way it should be. It's getting harder and harder to find such places. Good job with the sight fishing. I catch largemouth and smallmouth bass in the springtime like that when there cruising the shallow water waiting to spawn. Cracking video.
Huntnfishnuts thanks mate. Yeah great place. It's not too far from civilisation but just far enough to be out of the way for most. Love to fish places like that and will have to do it more.
Brilliant, you have a talent there, that was a bit like a well filmed series some years ago called a Passion for Angling, you caught the essence of being out on and around the river roaming with light tackle, and the bit where you cut the music and let the natural sounds speak for themselves was ace, great to see that you were able to return to a river you fished as a kid and find it still in decent nick, at one time you would find what was once a nice river had been fouled up or reduced to an overgrown trickle.
Super video boss, well done there mate.
Thanks matey, great to hear you enjoyed some of the finer parts of the video. I sometimes try to do things a bit different to my rough and ready older approach to making videos. I'm lucky that despite all i've done, i can still enjoy a blank with those stunning sunrises, the wildlife and the peace and quiet.
well done mate...
aurelian romeo vieru thank you matey
I think one of you're best !
James Lench Thanks James! :)
Cracking video again paul.your a lucky man wish we got the Chubb up here in scotland
watched again .very professional.
+James Lench cheers James!
Great video , really enjoyed, it dare I say pro quality, nice fish too.
+Steve Wright thanks Steve. I tried to do something a bit different from my normal stuff and also capture more of what fishing is about for me.
It works!
Great video. Great catch with some super Chub. Your video quality improves every episode too. Keep up the good work and fishing!!
Craig Chew-Moulding Thanks Craig. Loved the chub not targeted them properly for years so great to catch them.
Great stuff. Off to the canal now for three hours before the wins arrive. Not been very successful with kypoto shad jigs on the canal but caught my PB (about 1lb) on a local lake. It was the perfect swim. I'll share photos later.
Craig Chew-Moulding Hope you bag a few mate. Lots of people using the shads so some spots the perch are wise. Sometimes mixing it up with some other lure does the trick.
very good
john wrasse thanks John
good stuff! new camera?
DomFishingUK cheers mate. No still the same GoPro and that cheapo camcorder job.
Thanks for this. Looks like absolute heaven. Wasn't too hard to work out which river you were on (I won't say, secret's safe) and I'm going up there for a few days in the summer to get some hooks wet. Hopefully I can find a spot that beautiful!
Great video mate!
+LureNuts Tv cheers bud
Nice camera work. Crazy how the wilderness can change over the years. Just went to a old hunting spot a few years ago and I couldn't believe how much it changed.
+mojsmg cheers buddy. Yeah amazing how much it changes. The river was running in different places to what it did years ago and a shallow fast run was now a hole, and island popped up, another island moved down stream. It was like fishing a new place again.
That was quality
+ivor nappinion cheers bud, can't grumble at a day like that
Great film Paul, beautiful river, tremendous Chub and good memories shared. Thank you.
Love this kind of rivers :)
+Wobler.TV I agree mate. So much more enjoyable to fish.
+River Piker Specially on a sunny day,far, far away from civilization ;)
Tell you what, mate....the quality of your videos is going through the roof. That one would have been perfectly at home as a hugely watchable TV programme on a mainstream channel. The whole production, imagery, fishing ability and the fact you're obviously a very likeable guy all go together to make it so enjoyable. I really wouldn't be surprised if a TV producer sees these soon and you get a call. Great stuff :)
Jake Hamilton Thanks matey, high praise. I'm a rough piker and sometimes I focus on the pike stuff, tutorials etc too much. I see all this when I go fishing like everyone does but I don't always take the time to try to capture it. Will try to make a better effort to do it more. Glad you enjoyed it so much, cheers
Great video, one of my favourites! Just superb!
cheers Gary. Will try to do more like this. Need time and a bit of luck that the weather etc goes in my favour. Next fridays video is a nice one. not visually as stunning but a nice little story of my day fishing. Let me know what you think of it won't you pal. cheers
this video is a piece of art, I love everything on it... the music, the storyboard, the image, I felt myself fishing with you. Absolutely brilliant.
really cool video man. good job like ialways
Pawel Sawicki Thanks Pawel
What a beautiful place to be not just for the fishing but the scenery and everything around. I wish we had smelly vision nothing like fresh air at dawn. The other commenters have said it only thing for me to say is superb video as usual. What a fantastic looking place how lucky you are to have such locations where you live :)
+Peter Harman Cheers mate. Yeah us anglers love that kind of thing. There's loads of us and we all have different passions, be it carp, roach or pike but we all appreciate special places and special times of the day that many people never even see. I bet we all have somewhere like this within reach, but this isn't on my doorstep it was a good hour and half drive to the location.
+River Piker I am more than willing to drive an hour and a half to a location like this. My son and I are going to do just that next week we have researched a couple of rivers and a canal within that driving range so really looking forward to it neither of us have ever caught pike before so new adventures await gonna try those rubbery frogs they look cool even I don't manage to catch lol just love your vids huge thanks for making and sharing
+Peter Harman That's how you do it mate. Find a bit of new water and go see what happens. Take a few options lure wise but travel light and keep on the move and see what you can find. Bit of food and drink and you are away. I love exploring a new bit of water, I find the fishing is more exciting even if you don't catch as you don't know what to expect. Thanks for watching the videos mate and good luck on your exploration, hope you catch a few.
+River Piker cheers so do I :)
Sometimes wonder why we pay go places fish . British countryside is so nice and quiet and an adventure all in itself.
Usually an hour drive and you are in some bit of wonderful countryside. You just have to get out and find those spots eh mate.
River Piker 100% correct buddy.
Beautiful shots, nice fish, great video. Loved it.
Kayak Chris thanks Chris!
I grew up in Devon spinning on black furys mepps 2 and 3 and then moved up to the 4s when chasing the salmon..... I've been carp fishing for 4yrs now and it take so much gear and money and mechanics to cat has a fat cat...... that you can't eat...... when it's trout and salmon,... there straight in the pan...... but I've got a little river here on my Portsmouth angling society that has a good head of chub....... might do what I live best..... walk the river.... bump into mother nature and fish light and quiet.... think I might be going back to what I did best....... living and loving rivers .... thanks once again for your super duper advice
Mate we can get enjoyment from all forms of fishing but you get back out, tiny rod, half a dozen small lures and go for an adventure. Fish places you never fish or that you haven't fished in years and see what is about. One fish might be all you manage but you''ll love it. Good luck pal let me know how it goes
I've caught chub on a wide variety of lures , Big s and the midi s which banged me a 5 pound 6 ounce chub , manns one minus baby version , Royoby mugger and Fox micro jerkbaits , surface poppers are good arboghast hula popper , rapala skitter prop it always astonishes me how hard a chub will hit a surface lure .
Yeah they are a bit crazy some days. I've picked a few up on my pike lures over the years.
Beautiful edit, what it's all about, being out in nature and appreciating the beauty. Good work fella.
Great effort mate, like your moving up a level here. Loving the dawn scenery..agree it's easy to take for granted, but we anglers really are privilaged in experiencing a world many don't get to see and feel like us.
Lee Fletcher cheers Lee. Sat here having a quick brew before getting out and can see the sunrise as I type. Everyone misses the things us anglers get to see every day.
True
...with this very well edited clip you've absolutely managed to bring up what fishing is all about , really enjoyed to watch ! Greetz , Dieter
61diemai Thanks Dieter. Us anglers see this all the time and we take it for granted. I was all alone that morning but great that I can share all that I was part of.
Thats a bit of river very close to my heart as well mate
Hi Sam. Lovely piece of river isn't it? Spent loads of time on it as a kid. Have you had much out of it in recent years? It had changed so much after 20 years.
Im the same as you, being a ripon lad it was the first proper river i ever fished. spent countless hours up there, plenty of chub hiding in the willows with some perch here and there, lots of grayling and the occational barbel. recognised it straight away from the video.
great video, really cool scenery shots too.
BigMike315Fishing Thanks Mike
grams on 8k mate love all the video. My favourite was 106, summed up the beauty of fishing perfectly n the reason we all love it
cheers Robert. I enjoyed making this video. I'll try and do a few more in this style at some point. Problem with me is I'm at work thinking up ideas, but then when I finally get fishing I get so wrapped up in actually fishing I forget to make these type of video.
Bravo Piker,, Great video,, !! Jocko Lazic(yogi lures) is my good friend and colleague.
Hi Zoran. We love the Yogi lures, we use them lots. You should check out my recent trout videos too where I catch an amazing trout on the yogi. I don't know Jocko but I have been chatting to Goran from Spin & fly, may be you know him too? Good to hear you enjoyed the video too thanks for watching.
Yes, I know Goran(Gocy),, is a my friend too,,
This is really well done video, is a true pleasure to watch him.
We'll stay in touch. Greeting
Ha! Small world Zoran. You guys have got some stunning waters out there,
really beautiful scenery. One day I'll come and make a video. :)
You might like this video too.

Tight lines Zoran, send my regards to Goran and Jocko when you see them.
Today I heard the Jock and greeted him. Yes the World is to small :D
type in the facebook: Mojsinjski
Wow they are super tiny lures. I need to have a go at serious ultra light lure fishing for other fish.
Big Mike sent me :D awesome video!!!
+Ralph Ledesma (OneMansOpinion) Hi Ralph. cheers man, glad you like it. tight lines mate (thanks Mike)
Yeah I have fished the ure for chub
you hit the nail on the head...... you on instagram or any other social site buddy?
another class video... I lived on 2 rivers in Devon and lived doing exactly what you did in the video.... even with grandad
Nice one Lennon. Yeah the chub love lures. Just get some small ones 2-5cm should be about right. spinners work, so do soft shads that you would use for perch. I like to use small plugs and I have a mixture of sink, suspend and float, different shapes and sizes and I just use what i fancy on the day. Chub are often found hanging off the edge of bushes and also off the end of a bit of flow waiting for some food. They often spook easily so travel light and have a few casts in likely looking spots and move on.
Awesome video mate! What a beautiful place! I'd love to visit an awesome place like this! I think those fish was just a bonus.
Barney Richardson Exactly that Barney, the fish are a bonus. Special place and for me even more as I spent hours there as a kid, younger than you are now, just wandering around trying to catch fish. Used to be a spot with some big pike in, a small cut off the river but when I went back it was all over grown and most of the water was gone.
:(
stunning camera action
Well done with all the camera angles etc. Really good vid
Just one quick question... Where the hell can I buy yogi jointed lures? Only found one website (unless I'm spelling wrong?) sovereign superbaits. But they don't have much of a range in stock.
Thanks
cheers pal. Yeah they are not easy to get hold of because they are a custom made lure. I get them made sometimes and sell them on but at the minute they are sold out. SS is your only option for now i think.
+River Piker Are there any other similar ones you'd recommend?
Looking to get out this weekend
Can't think of any at the minute. But any little small cranks will be good. Little Salmo Hornet or executer are nice lures. have a look at the little HRT cranks on AGMdiscountfishing. Can't think of any tiny jointed ones though.
Cheap lures,guy who owns the shop is great fisherman and easy to contact
Goran is a great bloke, I have bought from him before ;)
Cracking location and great quality vid mate. This is what fishing is all about. Your vids are getting better and better. Only problem? Himalayan Balsam at 1:14? My local stream is over-run with the blasted stuff and the banks are turning into mud slides.
Gary Stevens cheers Gary. Yeah it is HB. Gets all over the place but I do remember it being there 20 odd years ago too.
Great video again, your right it's what fishings all about I've been having some luck with the chub lately been catching a few nice ones between 2-3
pound on the salmo bug!!
Jonty Murphy That's good sport on the light gear Jonty, those little salmos are great lures for all sorts. Keep at them mate you never know what might pop up. cheers
Cheers, yeah belting sport especially in the current, having a few perch up to around a 1lb aswell don't think them 3 pound perch you've been getting exsist round ares haha would love one of them
Yeah they do go with the flow a bit, had some on the kayak in fast current and that was fun. You'll be surprised where those bigger perch turn up so fingers crossed mate.
Hi, I'm hoping for a bit of advice. I only started fishing my local river this year. It is filled with brown trout. I've experimented with different lures and from March to June Mepps Comet spinners were my favourite lure, However the past two months I haven't even got a follow with my spinners so I tried using different lures to find a replacement. I have found that the best lure I have for the trout at the moment is my Abu Garcia Tormentor 50mm Floating Crankbait. It is the only lure that I have, that the fish are taking in the river these past two months. It is an absolute trout magnet but the problem with it is that for some reason about 75% of fish that hit it don't get hooked!
Yesterday it didn't hook 1 out of 3 fish that hit and today it didn't hook any of the 7 fish that hit it. I don't know why. Maybe I'm not setting the hook right, I'm not sure. The fish seem to grab it and just spit it out. I'm not sure how to change my strategy and any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
dlow364 Let me know what rod it is you use mate. The trout are fast and they hit like mad so you have to react fast. Ultra sharp hooks and quick reflexes. Hopefully your rod has a fast enough action to help, a soft one isn't always the best. But I would expect you still to hook something. Make sure the line is tight so you can react to the slightest touch, any slack line will have a delayed reaction when you strike or when they hit. Make sure you are actually striking and not just lifting. I've had that before where it turned out the angler was just slowly lifting in to the fish. As soon as you see them take or feel it, hit it. We miss a few fish, they are so fast you miss some but you should hook up more. A long thin hard body might be hard to hook up as they hit it fast, grab the body but miss the hooks. A pike for example would just inhale the lure where the trout kind of bump it.
+River Piker thanks very much mate. My rod is very light, 6ft and 25g casting weight and your right I'm not striking the fish hard because I'm afraid of tearing the hook from their mouth but I'll give it a go. Also, I'm thinking of getting a new pike rod to cast big lures like the buster jerk and wolf tail. I'm looking at a drennan E-sox piker 10ft lure rod. It has a casting weight of 100g and a test curve of 2.5lb. Do you think it'll do the job?
dlow364 That could be it then. If ever you have some cash, you could also try a much lighter rod. Think more in the 1-15g range for the small lures. You'll cast them easier and you should also feel what the lure is doing better and get better response from any hits. Use small salmo hornet or jointed Yogi which catch us fish, along with size 2 and 3 mepps (or other spinners) plus even the 2 inch soft shads on a jig. small trout will hopefully hook up better on these. The big trout should be not as much problem as they take even pike lures, they are mental.
For the pike rod. The rating is ok so you can use big lures. I personally don't like the long rods. I use a 6 ft 7in jerkbait rod and if I was using a fixed spool reel i'd probably only have an 8ft rod. I find the extra length gets in the way of me trying to work the lure. A 10ft rod would make casting distance much easier so if you were bank fishing a lake that would be handy. All down to personal preference though mate so just have a think what is right for you.
+River Piker alright thanks. It was only that lure I was having a problem with the hooking and in my river they generally are small fish, with the biggest trout I've caught being just over a pound. Casting on my little rod is definitely not a problem as I can overcast the river which is about 12m wide if I use anything heavier than 3g and yes the pike rod is for lakes from the bank. I use Mepps comets 0s and 1s and a 2 at lakes. If I try use a 3 when the blade spins it bends my rod loads and activates my drag. Thanks for recommending those lures aswell
What river is this ? Yogi lures for the win :D
Nice video. what venue is it? I'm heading to Gainford for couple of weeks fishing on the tees, looks similar. Have you ever fished it and any tips?
+stephen ferrier Never fished it mate but usual tip applies. Keep mobile and find the fish, that's the key with lure fishing
First UK angler who fishis in the right way.You need to cast plugs al the wey to other score.The real monsters like to hide in the holes an pick up pray which falls from banks.It is tricky thing,and you luse plugs,but once you learn,IT becames murder of big chubes.Problem is that you must feel balance og each lure.You can not learn with cheap stuff and then use Duo Spearhead.Beckhend cast helps a lot
Not enough people using plugs in the UK. Everyone is on canals jigging soft plastics. Its so much more fun learning to work the different lures in different bits of the river. Using a floating lure to drift under a bush and then work it back. Using a sinking lure to slowly sink in to that deep dark hole under the bush. Or a suspending lure to slowly work and then drift through shallow faster water. I like to use the betetr lures as you say, not jsut cheap things, also like to use some well made custom plugs too.
River Piker Try floating lure to cast as much as you can and take it to depth with rod tip all the way down to water.Slow retriev with downriver craft be the drive force.Strikes come when lure is coming in the main stream and when is on the way out.You can use twitch on the way in,and long pause on the back retriev om the edge of stream.Hope that can help little.Chub likes to take fish when they swim away,while trout ataks head on.
Great video again thers a lock near me got some decent Chubb abart u ever use salmo hornets for chubb
Cheers Daniel. Yeah the hornet is a great little lure. Use them for trout and chub and they catch. give them a whirl mate if you know a chub spot they will do the damage.
here you go

quality vid quality fishing .
Thanks matey
That was a joy to watch.Some lovely images and edited like a pro you have a real eye for this,Hugh miles would not have had a bad word to say i am sure.
Ok,mebbe there was too much music for me but i had to say something slightly negative :p
Hedge hog Thanks buddy. Don't think it's on the same class as Hugh but i'm happy with the effort.
ps didn't realise chiba loved a lure.... I was on the river for trout and salmon
yes would you write the website the rod because i buy one rod for river
thank you. i leave in greece and i fishing carp catfish tourt chub....what rod buy???
You only need a light rod for trout and chub, a 2-10g lure rod would be perfect but for the carp and catfish you need to be using a strong rod as these fish grow much bigger.
Hy pal! Really enjoied your video, and those pictures! Awsome! What lure you prefer when you fishing for chub? Is that jointed a Salmo frisky, or Rapala bx ?
+Balint Koder Hi mate. Really glad you enjoyed the video, something a bit different from my normal stuff. For chub simple lures like Mepps or Blue Fox spinners, small soft shads work but I love using plugs more than anything. The little salmos will be great, the second chub was on a salmo hornet. The first chub came on a jointed Yogi lure, which are hand made by a guy in Poland or Slovenia I think and are a bit harder to get hold of.
+River Piker thank you for your quick reply! Not only enjoyed the video, but I learned a lot, from your videos( techniqes,fish handling, finding a good place to fish etc)!All the best, and tight lines!
Thanks Balint.I always try to answer and help so long as youtube manages to notify me! (Grrr, not always the case lol). tight lines matey and good luck for the new years fishing!
Is that ribble
what season is good to going i fishing chub???
Now is good mate. Warmer weather means they are hungry and also looking up in the water for bugs and insects etc so if you know a spot with some chub go give it a go. I'm waiting for my new rod to come then I have plans to go chubbing again myself. :)
fisherman for carp
What River are you on?
Hi Paul I know you don't like giving location away but is this the wharfe
Hi Steve. No I don't, but no it's not pal
+River Piker ok thanks pal dint think it was but mi pal swears it is cheers pal
???? what rode buy???
can you give me a few tips on chub lures?
place
hi mate. sorry i missed this message, youtube doesn't always notify me. Chub like small cranks 2-4cm is good. have a look round, any will work. That's half the fun finding a small crank and trying to catch. Salmo hornet is a good one to start with. Any lures that look like little bugs or insects will work too. They will take a spinner so something like a small mepps, and also lures like simple soft shads. summer they are easier to catch on lures so it's just finding where they are hiding.
what rod you buy???? please tell me the rod becayse i want buy one rod for tourt
It's a Sonik Light Tec Spin Rod - 6ft 1-8g
+River Piker I got a sonik travel rod 7ft I think its 3-12g really nice rod.
Nice one mate that will be perfect. Still not received my rod yet, not sure what is happening. I'm itching to get out too :(
This has to be your best produced video Paul. The edits are superb, and so are those stonking great chub. I can hardly believe you saw so much wildlife on that heavenly morning, and all for free. This is where I want to end up when I die. Well at least this is my idea of heaven anyway.
Thanks for sharing with us mate.
Robin.
nosineb Cheers Robin. There used to be loads of chub, didn't see so many but it was only a short session so hopefully they are still there in numbers. The wildlife was ace to see and I bet I could have shown more if I looked harder again. I couldn't manage to catch the kingfisher in action, that guy needs to have a bit more time spent just on him.
