If anyone wants to check out the bike here's a link. If you purchase with this link you get a discount too! uk.himiwaybike.com/TheGingerFisherman I'm planning a couple forgotten pond adventures over the coming weeks. Possibly carp and eel session. What do you reckon?

Sweet video! I use an e-bike to get around the massive dam where I live. So easy and so much faster than walking! I can basically do from where one river enters the dam all the way into the little village, about 24kms one way, and find where the fish are! The e-bike is a godsend especially for my tired old bones! 🤣

I think those baby birds were Robins. What a find. This is why I love your channel. Appreciation for all nature. Cheers Chris.

Always worth looking on Bing Maps too. The aerial view is often better quality and you can also switch to Ordnance Survey view to see if there are any footpaths or bridleways etc.

Love these forgotten pond videos, keep up the great work Chris!

Great vid as always. Been watching for couple of years now. Loved seeing the progress of your channel.

Hi Chris, looks like skylarks too me. Very cool find.

Wow what a find, some lovely looking carp there , cracking video as always 🎣

Noticed a few of them E-bikes popping up on KZfaq. Glad it’s made it easier for you to explore more water. And giving us great videos. Nice one Chris 👍🏻

Riding along with that lure swinging around made me cringe an shudder. Hook snags your trousers as you're peddling down and ouch those hooks are deep. I had to skip it forward lol. I know youve been hooked before but it reminded me of when i was a kid biting shots on to line near the hook and the rod slipped off the rest and pulled the hook into my bottom lip. I've not bitten a shot on to line since. I accept the roasting 😂.

That drone footage of the carp was really nice!

Superb as ever. Look forward to your next adventure

Excellent video as always chris❤

Love your videos, thanks. How do you get access/permissions day tickets etc etc?

All good stuff Chris and your bike looks well good too. Will look it up 👍

What happened to showing how to unlock the limit on the bike

Absolute Awsone footage on the drone mate defiantly worth having one, I use to do this one the outskirts of London and found some gems of waters to fish, only thing i didn't have was the drone, pukka vid as always mate keep em coming 😎💯🎣🎣🎣🎣👍😊

Absolutely love your videos m8👊❤️

lol good ad for the bike hope u got to keep it!

Love seeing new vids from you keep It up

You should try and Tie some fishing line to your drone and catch little fish. Trouble is you would probably end up catching a big pike

Cool well done spotting that next...

i love your videos i have seen all of them keep goin

Love this mate epic 😮

I think the baby birds are either A) Green Woodpeckers or B) Emus. Keep up the good fishing and not treading on small birds 😀

My e bike has served me well so glad i built it, its not legal but it blends in well

That’s a big old Tench amoungst them carp

Great to see you getting out and exploring new venues. Please get yourself a helmet though-you’ve only got one skull and it’d be a real shame if you stopped posting videos because of a major and completely avoidable head injury🙂

Nice wheels mate, only way you can operate I guess… cover a lot of ground 🎣👍🏼

Good to see you getting a bit of sponsorship

Can't stop and look at the beauty of natural 25mph

EPIC,I’ll be doing some videos just like these very soon 😏

those baby birds are probably Dunnocks

I have the waterway wanderers permit and live about 20mins walk from the local canal - The river is also here but a stupidly large 10+ mile stretch is rented out by a club which means no-one else can fish there and Ive only ever seen a handful of people fishing there. Like you I wanted to ride a bike down the canal so I can get to places that are allowed by the waterway wanderers permit. But the likelihood of me getting pushed off it and stolen or it being stolen when I lay it down to start fishing is very very obscenely high. I can hike 6-8miles to where i need to go but even if I lighten up my pack and only take what i need. hiking 6-8miles with food, water and fishing gear for a few hours of fishing is hardly going to be fun. especially If I also need to walk back the same way afterwards. I hate it but such is life.

You didn't show how to de restrict the speed?

Have you got a link to the last year video on the carp lake

How do you know if you're allowed to fish these waters? Always wanted to do something like this but I wouldn't know if the waters in question would be club owned or have specific byelaws etc

Finding hidden waters is one step, but how do we find out if the waters are open to fishing, or if they are private or club fisheries?

Keep up the work! Just wondered what drone you use?

Where do you get all your day permits from?

I ride my electric bike (an old E Shopper) nowhere near as fast as you, but how on earth do you keep your rod away from bushes and trees. On a canal towpath I wobble like hell trying to watch my rod and stay out of the water.

I ride up and down the trent on my pure air pro long range lol 😂

Nice con from Ireland

I would hook myself every time riding like that with gear XD

Looks like a reed bunting nest to me .

I couldn't see your rod close enough to tell if you have your lure hooked into the eye of your rod or not? Just something I learned earlier this year on fish locker and he said you should always hook your lure or hook onto the scaffolding of the rod eyes 👀 because if you hook onto a rod eye 👁 during travel the hooks can chip your rod eyes as they are made of porcelain and that can cause all sorts of problems, anyway it's a tip I've passed on to a few people as it's one of those things personally I never knew about nor did my fishing buddies.

Was that Giant Hogweed by the nesting chicks?

Can you go back and do some videos of the forgotten ponds and do carp fishing please

Great video. How do you get permission for these waters.

How do you know if you're actually allowed to fish a random stream or a pond you find on google maps?

What kinda size were those Carp !! They looked huge

These baby birds are eagles. Or flamingos.

I would use my emtb to fish local waters if there wasn’t a high chance of being mugged for it.

Bro I beg you catch those carp

I never know wether to just fish random secret ponds and rivers but round my area they’re all owned by fly fishing clubs that are snobby and ridiculously expensive, part of me wants to fish them and just see if anyone says anything (the bits in between where it’s hard to tell if it’s club owned or not)

That first pike wasn't much bigger than the lure it took, that's the sort of size I'd use in a deep water mark for cod n Pollack n bass etc, pike are really greedy from what I've seen, we don't have pike on the isle of man we do have perch in an old abandoned lime stone quarry it also was stocked with brown and rainbow trout by the farmer who owned the land and he actually did it for us kids who only caught eels and unfortunately some idiot spoiled it by putting a tangle net along the edge which probably wiped out 80% of the trout and after the farmer found out he never stocked it again as he was just trying to do something nice and as usual one bad seed ruined it for the rest of us, such a shame cuz it was great fun for all my friends on the estate I lived and we were there almost every day and night until the netting and after that the fish were few and far between and that was 30 years ago so I imagine their are no trout in there with it being a limestone quarry it's probably to alkaline for them to breed, theirs still perch in there.

Should of god a holder on it

looked like sparrows

imagine coming off at speed into nettles brambles hawthorne or god forbid hogweed...id stay at 4mpg sod 15mpg just incase break failed

Hate to say it but Nick from 618 Fishing has a bigger bike ;-) See ya later buddy!

Thats when you know you've made it as a CC when companies give you free shit.

You don't explain how you find out who owns the fishing rights so that you can get permission to fish the water. Even if there isn't a club involved there's always a riparian owner. When I had my farm I regularly got people who poached on my land and and were often very abusive towards me. Anyone who asked first I always let fish.

Birds definitely not larks reed buntings sparrows they warbler’s most probably reed warbler. I’m no expert but know for sure no one got it right yet 😇

How i find forgotten waters and ponds: Google maps

Mate don't want to sound like your Dad but get a helmet you out on your own miles from help .I used to Greenlane I had a slow speed off on a track. The bike catapulted me into a stump I had a good helmet probably saved me from a brain injury 🤪I guess you ride on road too and we all know how dangerous that can be for bikes and cyclist !! Great content though 👌

Safety first use a helmet . Youll have someones eye out with your jousting rod 😢

I don't get the idea of electric bike to me that's just lazy whole thing of cycling get there and fitness

Ya just made fishing harder 🙈🙄 for ya own gratification 🙄

Didnt realise your channel had now become an advert for a crap Chinese ebike

Maggots are actually harmful for the birds, so try not to feed them with maggots. I only learned about this recently but i'm definetly not giving them any maggots from now on . Great video , cheers mate 😊

I'm same mate, having a bike is way better , if not u end up spending more time walking than fishing, hate those fisherman who always ask what spots are good to fish, just go out and find them lol, some folk are thik

Any man who steals another man’s fishing spot is a prick mate🤣🤣
