Urban Canal Pike LOVE Big Lures! Big Fish Landed!

  • This session I was on the hunt for some big canal pike using big lures! I started off in an urban location. The conditions were perfect for this type of fishing. I fished most of the session using a 25cm Mc Pike which is a large paddle tail swimbait. The idea was that the large target would be irresistible to a big hungry canal pike. The session went really well with some cracking fish and one of the biggest of the year landed for me.

    I'm a canal paddleboarder and I've got a phobia of fish that I'm starting to get over, great video, very informative and I love the respect you give the fish, I'd never believe that they are so unharmed and actually better off in some sense like with the leeches after you clean them off and put them back.

  • @greencaptain4209
    @greencaptain4209 Před rokem

    on all lures like the hooksetup i like these the most, easy to apply to the lure, and easy to release from the fish as well, only 1 thing i slightly dont like on these setups is that it rips it out the lures. and making a big hole in it.
    but good to see these pikes again. i know its the best time to fish pike but i will wait after the paring season.

    When your soft bait gets heavily damaged, you can use a solder iron to mend it.
    Together with treble hooks attached to your bait with pins this will save a lot of baits and a lot of money.

    Fishing for pike in town is something I can only dream of. So far, the biggest (and I hate to admit only) pike I've caught was 37" and 10lbs. It was an oddball, to be sure. Something had taken a big chunk out of its back, a few inches behind its head, but it had healed. Funny thing was the way it healed, it made it look like it had shoulders.🤣
