Float Fishing For Tench Using The Lift Method & Centrepin - Part One
For this session we took, the From The Waters Edge camera's to fish a session at a small private lake, not knowing too much about the water, other than that it contained good stocks of Tench, Rudd, Crucians and even some Golden Tench we opted to fish traditionally... and that is of course using the lift method and centre pin reel! In this latest two part episode watch as we catch all manner of species in a truly wonderful days fishing!
Thanks for watching.

I enjoy all your videos they get better the more you do,like every thing in life practice make perfect.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for taking the time to drop us a positive comment.
Another superb video from you Guys!
Thanks RRejno! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for taking the time to comment! :-)
I live in the USA, for some reason European coarse fishing just fascinates me. It's so vastly different than fishing in the States, were practically every sought-after fish is a predator of some sort and we're spoiled with a wealth of public (and free) water to fish. By watching these videos, though, I've learned some invaluable things about float fishing in general---but particularly shot patterns and presentation---and it's really helped my fishing here in the States where float fishing seems to be a dying art.
It still gives me a chuckle to see you guys flinging quarts of maggots all over the place! Feeding just isn't necessary for the species of fish commonly encountered here, and we buy maggots by the dozen. I just can't wrap my head around an entire PINT of maggots!
Hi Jason, so great to hear from you all the way over in the USA! Haha... I bet our fishing does vary greatly to yours, however I guess the reasons why we go and the passion we have for the sport is still the same! Glad you enjoyed the video's and that you found some bits useful, it's nice to know (and quite strange) that they get watched and appreciated around the globe! I don't know too much about Coarse fishing in the US, but I know I'd love to try some of your fishing, its very spectacular compared to ours! Haha! Good luck with your fishing, be lucky and tight lines. :-)
From The Waters Edge TV I think you'd be a little shocked to learn that carp are, officially, considered a problem species here. Invasive Most people agree that they're great sport on rod and line, but we're allowed by law to take them by any means except firearms or explosives (and until about 1985 in Indiana, you COULD use explosives)! Snagging, bowfishing, nets...in my dad's day, that's how you went carp fishing. Now times are changing and carp are recognized more as a sport fish than a problem fish in most places. Coarse fishing methods are gaining ground here, especially the specialist carp stuff, as more people target the "rough" fish---yep, Rough Fish is what we call them---for a different challenge and something new.
Anyway, great videos and keep 'em coming!
After living in the states for a while I can say that the freshwater anglers here are either bass anglers or catfish anglers, and a few trout anglers. Very little nuance. After you have read 'The Compleat Angler' (sic) by Walton or 'Cypry the carp' Mohan you'll begin to understand the artistry of course fishing. Fish with the lightest tackle and just see what's in there.. and then throw them back.
Hi TheCarpDude, the bait table we are using is a really old Daiwa one, i'm pretty sure they don't make them anymore. I would suggest having a look at a Carp/Specimen style bivvy table as this would probably do the same job.
Great vid as usual lads!
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it! :-)
Your right there! Its such a shame that there aren't more of these sort of venues around. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for taking the time to comment! :-)
great way to fish,i only fish this way,great vid .keep them comeing mate.
Thanks for the kind comments Michael and for taking the time to post them, glad you enjoyed the video's and our channel. Hope your fishing is going well. :-)
good day today had a few tench, mate
Great video!
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for taking the time to comment, it's always much appreciated and great to hear positive feedback.
What's the bait tray/table? I'm looking for one for my next to my chair..
Really like the video. Subbed as well. I like the fact you reply to comment. keep up the great work. 😁😁😁
Thanks mate, cheers for the sub too! :-)
That water beats any commercial muddy hole into a cocked hat, stunning
Thanks for the video. I learned some new information. As others, though, have mentioned here; I could've done with a shot of the float indicating a bite so I have a better idea of what to look for when I'm on the water. Can anyone direct me to any videos showing a typical lift bite please?
Thank you.
No worries at all mate, perhaps this is a video that me and Steve might re-visit, as we filmed this years ago on an iPhone when we didn't have a proper camera!

I did manage to find some pretty good footage but I, for one, would be very interested to see anything more on the topic your channel produces, especially if you have better recording kit, and now you have years more experience in your waders, producing videos!
How would you fish a small canal for 2lb to 3lb tench? What line? What bait? Thx !
-James
Hi James, probably a reel line of 4-5lb with a decent hook length of say 3lb would probably do it, however it would depend on what sort of features etc you were fishing against. If the area was quite snaggy I might step the tackle up a bit. As far as baits go, I'd stick with the naturals, Caster, Maggots, Worms and see what happens. If you caught lots of small fish you could go with a slightly more specimen approach... Pellet, Corn, Minature 10mm Boilies etc Hope this helps! :-) Best thing to do is to give it a go and see what works best, perhaps fish two rods and fish them against each other?
Fine
Can I ask what those shots are? The locking shot look like BBs and the bottom shot looks like an ssg or a AA. The float is a 3bb? Is that right?
Hi buddy, the locking shot are smaller than BB, infact in an ideal world they would be better if they were just standard float stops. When fishing the lift method the large shot should be heavier than the float. Hope this helps.
if you was to put a small 3gram lead on the line like a small sinker then you would not have to plum the depth and the tench or carp would either hook its self or move the float what does anglers think of that? would I be right?
Something heavier than 3gram would work +superhunter992 however then you might as well ledger for them, using like a semi-fixed bolt rig or something. Sometime it's nice to watch the float, you can get a slightly different presentation, it can be finer and more sensitive.
+superhunter992 waiting for float going under. Yeah . I can wait for it all day. This is the magic of float fishing
so is the heavy shot the only one on the rig or is the float shotted "properly" with the addition of the heavy shot on the hooklength?
Hi Jay, we just use one big shot near the hook, this would sink the float, but because it sits on the bottom it cocks the float perfectly. Then when a fish picks up the bait and moves the shot the float rises. If you are still a little confused, type in google 'Fishing The Lift Method' this will bring up lots more information and there should be some detailed rig pictures etc Hope this helps! :-)
From The Waters Edge TV
your explanation was perfect, thanks a lot
Jay K I love this method for Tench; you don't have to use any other shot, i use a float rubber to hold the float up the line. The main thing is use a float that is light so that it actually sinks, then set to the correct depth.
Jimmyc Burfield
yeah I tried it but didn't work because there's too much weed in my lake.
will this work for the method feeder ?
It wouldn't be ideal, centrepin reels aren't ideal for casting.
i mean can i use this method on a method feeder rod :-D
Great video as always, am I right in saying this method would be effective in combating drift due to the nature of the heavy shot acting as an anchor?
I think it would help Shaun, yeah.
@@FromTheWatersEdgeTV thank you, love watching your videos, you've inspired me to get out there and give it a go for the first time in 25 years and absolutely loved it 😁
Shame the camera couldn't pan a close up of the float in action.
Indeed Geoff, this one is many years old now though, when we used to film on an iPhone! Perhaps its a video/method we'll re-visit! :-)
How do you set Depth using this method
If the float goes under you're not deep enough. If the float lays on the surface you're too deep. It's all about adjusting the float until it sits just perfectly. :-)
What do you think of ledger floats?
They're ok Carl, altho a slider float set-up would probably be our favoured method for deep water.
i find stop knots for slider floats means less accurate distance casting, any tips to solve this? great videos btw, keep it up ;)
I thought he said a bit of porn on
Haha, no!
What a terrible video not once did you show the float, how about actually showing the float lifting
Hi Barry, this was filmed 7 years ago on a mobile phone which had no zoom feature, that's the reason. In that time we've worked hard on upping our filming and editing skills and now have better camera's etc.
