Really great stuff Lee. I see quite a few kids having a go for pike often without any proper gear to handle and unhook them. So sad I have seen a number come to an end that way. So my request Lee, a short vid entirely about pike handling. Everything from taking the barbs off the snap tackle if it’s all people have, getting to the hooks, going in through the gills when you have to, using forceps, deep hooked fish…how to avoid and deal with them. Lifting safely for a photo. Use of gloves. How to release, recovery in flow. I know it’s second nature to a seasoned piker but it’s the newbies especially getting it wrong, injuring fish or themselves in the process. Even some old hands do it wrong or have bad habits. Every fish saved now could be the monster of the future, that’s why I think it’s a good idea. The pace of your narration is good Lee, nice and clear. I would keep music to a minimum. I think most get this wrong with way too much music overlay. It’s always a matter of taste. But I genuinely think most would rather hear the line singing in the breeze, the clutch ticking, the natural sounds than overdub, plus that surely has to make them quicker to edit. Just my opinion, I had to produce them for my work years ago. If just one pike gets saved by a little of fish handling help it will be worth it. Me I would rather have a dropped run, missed take than a deep hooked fish, or if it is let’s hope there’s just one barbed hook in there so it can be got out safely.

I have very much enjoyed your films, thank you for what you do! I mainly watch them very early in the morning while on our broads cruiser waiting for a run myself.

Good stuff mate, like ur video, u keep things simple, good luck in the future🎣🎣🎣💯💯💯

Unreal monsters just new to pike Well havnt been yet but done abit fishing in past so learning getting plenty tips and ideas watching your vids I got catch a big fat lass this year on river that is😅

You came up in my feed, thanks KZfaq. Nice editing, I like your approach and manner in talking to the camera I've subbed and I'm going to watch some of the videos you have done, thanks

What a great end to the season on my favourite pike fishing venue. Well done matey. It’s been a hard place to fish since Christmas for me, very good to see you get some good size fish out. The elusive 20 evaded me this year!!! 🐊🎣

Nice few sessions them,some nice looking fish,i have had a bad season so far,will get 2 maybe 3 more trips in till close😢...once again well done

Well done 👍 great vids this season cheers for the content, can’t wait for October.

The majority of the pike I've caught this season have given indications like that first pike you caught in this vid. The bite alarm doesn't go off but the rod tip bounces!

Some great pike well done, most of my piking is on the swale and tees but having joined Scunthorpe angling club I’m going to try some piking down that way

Mega session mega campaign good luck for next season bud 😁🐊👍🏻

Epic!

Excellent really enjoyed your quest for the big pike and can’t wait till next seasons vlogs

Enjoyed your series well done

Looks like beauty mate 👍...well done on your quest it payed off 👏

Well done you had a cracking session bud🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 🐟🎣

Nice movie like it that you fish fore 4 days.

Some Great fish there mate...would like to see how u go about fishing baits for perch 👍

THE HYPE keepung my season alive these vids lol

Superb video ...you smashed it again mate 👌

Hi lee. Spoke to you on the first day. When you left there was the scull and skeleton of a decent pike in the margins. Did you notice it? There were mink and a family of otters active in the area???

Cracking 👍

Thanks for great videos and now I am looking forward to October again!. Have you ever tried single circle hooks?

Lee - great video and some fantastic fish. The pike is the most beautiful creature to look at - whether it's 2lb or 20lb, the colours and markings are stunning. Tell me, do you only use sardines, or are they your preferential 'go to' bait? I've never had any success on them (nor smelt) - always the mackerel or a sprat.....

Ever tried a pva bag stuffed with mashed up mackerel? Give it a go extra smell and oils attraction👍🍺

Hi pal just stared watching your videos and really enjoying them. Uv just mentiond comment if u would like any videos or tutorials makeing. Would love if you could make one about water carft and finding or identifying slacks and were to fish on fast flowing rivers. Think it would help alot of people. Cheers 🍻

What kit was you using if you don’t mind me asking

Great vid mate loving em really as a newbie to piking.. how do u go about setting up on alarms do u use a normal swinger at front line carping .... look forward to more great vids in the next pike season pal

Another cracking video, how come you use 20lb mono on the reel and not wire trace and the reel? What size is the keep net,is it the rubberized one? Wicked video

Cracking channel will you please weigh the fish to let us all know,makes the experience better for us . Many thanks !Neil from manchester👍🍻
