With the River Trent levels slowly starting to decline I head out to try and catch a few Barbel and pike, What we caught was something memorable!!!!

Im a relativity new subscriber to the channel, i don't normally subscribe to coarse fishing channels now being a Salmon and Seatrout game angler but i grew ip coarse fishing and in between game seasons fished my local Ribble for big girl Pike and early season whiskers so relate to the thread. What draws me though is your enthusiasm and honestly in your fishing. Whilst i love watching people catch fish the reality is we blank a lot of the time so you produce honest balanced content but do so with drive and enthusiasm. Thank you and keep it up!
3 of the biggest barbel ever caught from the trent have come from that stretch. What a great example of a speciman river pike too. Banging day
Beautiful fish, great fighter, can't ask for much more 👌
I once caught a barble on the Trent, 13.5 lb. North muskham.. great place. My mate caught loads.. 😂
Well happy for you mate
Well done mate you did say it was coming 😂,I was holding my breath the hole time you had it on 😂👍

Finally 😅 Well in pal . One of each in this weather cracking sesh. The pattern on that pike were stunning.
Cheers mate
Proper pike that mate 👌💯💪
That was a really nice barbel mate and a belter of a pike. Sometimes they do just pick the bait up and hold it in the front of their mouth don't they, I've had loads of dropped bites and some which seem like there's an eel nibbling at the bait but turns out it's a decent size pike.
A real gem of a pike. Come and have a go at the barbel masters on that section this year 🎣
Congratulations, what a beautiful pike, although the barbel may also be there. I have been blanking for 4 days, but keep courage. Greetings from Holland
Stunning fish, great video, well done mate, hmm must visit the river trent sometime, thanks for this, and all he best mate.
Thanks mate
She’s a beauty! Congratulations great angling. I must have a go on the Trent myself.
Thanks
Love your videos mate and what a stunning pike 👌 have you not thought about giving it a try with the lures you can cover a little more water with the very little time you have with a great possibility of a good few pike I do well on lures myself better than I do dead baits
1st time seeing your channel You speak to us as if we are there. You don't play to the camera Good on Ya ... New subscriber ✌️
Very nice fish 👍👍
Enjoyed that,thanks .
Thanks for watching 🙏
Amazing mate 👌 🎉
Cheers pal
Wow, effort = reward. All that pre-baiting most certainly paid off. Even if it's not the same location it means you have put the homework in and that definitely improves the odds.
It was the same location
"Go on my son!!!" hahaha yes mate!!! keep the great content coming. sick session!!!!! Bet I bump into you on the trent this year I'm planning lots of trips down there.
Cheers mate

Top angling that chap 😗
A red letter day for sure ,,well done it looks over 20 lb for sure ,,I have seen a picture of a 33 lb caught near castle 10 yrs ago
Cheers
cracking pike wonder if the one i was chasing meny years ago ona canal was around that size kept catching mid teen carp with fresh bite marks almost full width of the fish tryed a few times with lures deadbait and a few big live roach and never hooked into anything much bigger than around 8ib did manage a few 3ib perch on the live bait which was a welcomed by catch
Unbelievable production for a dude with 6,000 subs well done mate
Thanks pal
Brilliant stuff nice fish Jesus ancers prayer good on you 🙏🎣🙂
Your Percerference is infectious
Legend! Other than the rare pot luck chances, only putting the time and effort into it gets you fish like that! Great fish mate! You mentioned night fishing for them? What’s your experience or opinion on night fishing for pike? I have caught a few times but probably only 2/3 times out of 10, ironically I’m lakeside right now bivvied up for the night and tomorrow 🤞🙏
Well in pal top stuff
Cheers Liam
Amazing specimen m8 ,congrats , effort and patience well rewarded ,sure you get asked this a lot ,why don't you weigh such big pike !!!!! Tight lines .
Great video mate could/have you made a video of all the tackle and stuff you take for barbel fishing hopefully im going next year and theres that much stuff available im not sure what to get thanks in advance
Yes mate, have a look at my early barbel videos and I think I go thru the tackle I use etc rods / reels / feeders - there's a playlist with all the barbel videos in mate
Stunner mate congrats! Did you get a weight or length on her?
Good videos bud 👍
Cheers mate
my first pike trip tomorrow of the winter, just a local pool so lets hope. im useing dead bait dace as im not a fan of sea baits.
Well done cracking fish What weight did it go?
Lovely couple of fish. Would you be willing to show us your rigs sometime, please? I’m especially interested in your feeder setup.
There's lots of videos on this channel where I show all the rigs and feeder setup, check out the barbel videos 👍
What a fish!!! I live in Norfolk and the number of 20+s I've seen or heard about being caught in the last ten years or so I could count on both hands and a foot. Lovely to see it. Great stuff 👍
Thankyou
Well done on that beautiful pike Lee, a reward for effort. Did you get a weight on it out of interest ????
Упорност и труд се на крају исплати!!!
Cracking pike
Great video as always mate... Do u use leaders with your braid?
Cheers Simon , I don't use leaders , braid straight thru
Beautiful fish mate. Pre-bating paid off then! Superb. Well done.
Thanks mate
Nice catches. Any reason for back winding instead of using the clutch?
The clutch on these reels are terrible
That pike was a monster, nice one 😁 How much do you reckon it weighed?
Amazing 20lb'er in mint condition too !
Rods and reels you using mate ?
