Early Spring Tench Fishing | Simon Ashton | Drennan Specialist

Tench aren't just for summer, and for some anglers like Simon Ashton it can start as early as March! In this film we join Simon mid-session on a lovely gravel pit, 'ringing the changes' as the tench transitioned from night bites only, to all day and night! Watch the full film via the Drennan CZcams channel on the link in the comments section below! 👇

Some nice tench on show but they looked bang average next to that chaps guns 😂 ....what catapult was he using to get those groundbait balls out?

[@simonashton7032]

I use the original whopper dropper Gavin , I’ve tried all brands and models for the last 25 years and this one is by far the best In my opinion…… I bought my first to use in Ireland in the 90’s . The key is to keep the balls the size of a snooker ball and you can hit 60-70 yards no problem 😉

[@joshtate555]

Id be interested to know how your tactics change from what youre using now as you move into summer time?

[@amieflyfish2577]

Brilliant editing/filming , you look amazing but do you have a permit for those guns 💪🏻 😂

[@simonashton7032]

😂 💪🏿

[@DrennanTackleTV]

All guns in the video are fully licensed 😂

[@GeraldBoyes]

Does the bar run all the way down to the bottom corner (not the marina end the other end)

[@hannagoransson1006]

Simon,what reels are you using?

[@simonashton7032]

Shimano loncast medium pits

[@connorcgs]

Brilliant video now these specimen series. Just out of curiosity what was the TC of the rods?😁

[@simonashton7032]

2lb buddy , the mk 1 distance tench and bream rods

[@connorcgs]

@@simonashton7032 heavier then I thought tbh!

[@simonashton7032]

@@connorcgs they’re just the job for lobbing out heavy feeders at range and controlling big fish

[@connorcgs]

@@simonashton7032 ah I see, I currently have the drennan specialist 1lb dual tip, will this be to light for fishing for specimen sized tench?

[@simonashton7032]

I’d step them up to at least 1.75 if it’s big tench your targeting.

[@peterriches6446]

Tench far less impressive than the gun show / tan
