Make sure you check out the latest episode of the YPC UK here! Also my first episode will be aired on Sunday! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iMieeKh1l7m9hmw.htmlsi=rK2zOUb-3VXqatPf

I must admit I’ve struggled to get my head round fishing the floods around where I live this year but watching you I now know I should get my arse out and stop complaining about it , fantastic video 👍

I've been angling my whole life, you've really raised the bar with coloured water lure fishing and opened my eyes to so many missed opportunities. 👍

Thanks for proving it's worth fishing in conditions like that, I have always avoided doing that thinking it wouldn't be worthwhile, I am glad to be proven wrong.

Bonjour , c'était excellent 👏

The Ginger fisherman makes Matt Hayes look like a beginner

Oh man! Some cracking fish. Well done mate, appreciate the insight and inspiration

Some lovely fish Chris ,Amazing what you can catch in coloured water.

Hey Chris. Fished in the UK 2 years ago. Caught one of my bucket list. Double figure Pike on the River Nene. Thanks for a great show.

More cracking fish thank you for sharing again good luck in the competition I will be rooting for you

I appreciate the effort you put into the visual quality as well as the action.

Those are beautiful baits. They work very well! Good job and thanks !

Love the content, I grew up in County Mayo, Ireland and love the Pike, perch, chub, barbel, etc.

What a perfect day!!! Congrats to you for doing the right thing in conditions where others stay at home :)) Always a pleasure to watch your chanel . Tight lines from Germany

Great content, well done. Lovely stuff ❤️🎣

Brilliant Chris really enjoyed that

Absolutely loved this video keep it up Chris 👍

I love your videos mate. All the negative stuff happening in the world and all the worries about life and work in general get put on pause when I play one of your videos. So thank you, keep going and I hope you keep getting more success and popularity or whatever it is you’re after (other than fish).

Thank you for the videos! You inspired me to start fishing for Pike & Perch, still looking to improve my lure fishing however. Keep the videos up :D

Hey Chris, love your videos. Actually i started fishing small streams because of you. They brought me some great perches before :DD

Wow😳that was great session mate🐟🦈👍you are doing a fantastic job👌

A fantastic session, well done. You really need a longer handled net. I followed your link about those lures and was astonished how expensive they were, many times above my price range. I make all my own.

You are one of the best fisherman I've seen . I pove your videos

Awsome video Chris. cant wait for sunday tournement video good luck🐊🎣

Wow. That’s a decent perch. One for the pan❤

Can't wait to see u WIN THE TOURNAMENT BUDDY GREAT VIDEO AND CLASS PERCH CARCHING BRO

Awesome fishing mate 👏 rooting for you in the competition, go smash it

Mans smashing it 🙏🎣

An eye-opener for a lot of people, including me. When my landing net fell overboard (un-noticed) I put a half filled plastic bottle in the river and followed it downstream. When it hit a flood raft there was my landing net beside it.

Come on chris looking forward to seening you win🎣🙂🙏God willing

These past few weeks on my local River Nene (just to the west of Peterborough) have been difficult and I've been trying to find slack water when the main river's up several feet.... Still catching a few Perch though (nothing big apart from a 27cm and a 29cm), but did get a bonus 8.5lb Pike on a 2" Fox Micro Fry 3g jig (fluoro leader) at a lock......Bit of a fight when it got in the flow but got her out.....2-12g rod and 1000 reel stuff. Been lure fishing since I was a kid back in the '70's and always blanked in flooded and coloured water....Channels like yours and other anglers on KZfaq have certainly made me think a lot more, which is what it's all about in my opinion. I hadn't fished for 12 years until a year ago and have learnt so much in a short space of time....The joy for me is that I've not blanked a lot this season so far and I put it down to using the old grey matter in my head due to blokes like yourself.....Keep up the good work.

Good sesh Chris. Some lovely Perch AND you didn't lose your net either. Bonus!😀

Great vid, I fully expected for the end of the video to come and you say you lost your new net.

Quality mate 👍

Some cracking perch and pike there buddy small rivers in flood present some great opportunities for predator fishing I’ve had some of my best sessions for predators from flooded rivers and my best ever barbel session from a rising river which included a twenty pound carp four double figure barbel and two six pound plus chub people should never ignore a flooded river but always be careful as a flooded river takes no prisoners

Really cool video!

Wow what a session matey. Wish. I’d have seen this last week went to my local river last week in similar conditions and thought waste of time and went back home. 🙈 never to old to learn am I 🥴😂👍🏻

Absolute smashed it again Chris, although you've started falling over as much as Bob Mortimer 🤣 good luck in the YPC

Wish I i had perch like that around here. Smallmouth bass dominate the river niche in my area, but perch taste so much better! Couple quarties have some small some small perch, maybe half pounders at best..

Really great video, Chris. So exciting to watch. You need to offer your services to Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse in their 'Gone Fishing' series, as they struggle to catch every time. Nice manly banter though...

I’ve always avoided flood waters since once trying as a teenager. (I’m now 49) But these were some great perch and nice pike!

Super video great fish from a river of chocolate ...oompa loompa !

You will win the comp Chris come on 👊❤️

Hi i love your Videos there so exciting ❤

Oy Mr Ginger fisherman that was great again but don't forget one slip in heavy water could be your last! Safety first especially when you're on your own!

I feel like we did get perch that big in the states!!

Imo the best contrast for dirty water or even night time is a black fly. Interesting thoughts with the shine, my money is on black though.

You’ve got the win in the bag😂

Ask santa for a set of spring scales and get rid of the digital ones. They will always let you down and they'll let you down when you have a pb. They don't give you a correct weight in the cold either. Great vid bud just get a proper set of scales 👍🏻

I have caught big chubs in water like this, but with cicada bait. It makes strong vibration and my catch was about 20 chubs per day.

Chris you are by far the best angler on you tube without doubt ,i have binge watched all your uploads from back in the days 9 years ago when you were starting out minus the beard !!!! absolutely awesome ,cannot wait to see you in action in the YPC competition you will smash it mate good luck too you ,please any info on your unhooking mat and backpack you were using in the last upload would be grateful, tight lines mate massive respect .

Good day out!

Top shelf fishing Chris K/R Mr D

Lovely new net 😂😂😂😂

The canals Court Castle Marina in Lenton big pike as well

I’m loving this , what pound line are you on there , tight lines subbed

Chris is such a superb angler.

Hope you do the business on Sunday ginge 🎣🤞

Hi ya, great video and thanks for posting. I really want to get into this type of fishing but I have no idea how to handle a pike once landed which puts me off a little. I don’t want to damage or hurt the fish, any tips on how to hold and unhook and the sorts of kit I might need to be successful?

I had a very fast flowing river/Brook that would get swollen a number of times every year, and every time it did I would just avoid it altogether. Are used to only float fishing which is probably why… Didn’t ever think to bother going for pike or perch. Didn’t think anything hung around when the current was that strong

Be careful on them flooded slippery banks i slipped the other week and winded myself but managed to stay out the river lol

Love Your Videos, but Always sad we dont have that good fish populations in swizerland.

I love perch fishing there's a canal in Nottingham and some big perch in there big perch

Good stuff. Can i ask what the reel is? I use a lot of light tackle for Perch fishing and have seen these types of reels on a lot of YT vids, but dont know much about them. Cheers.

Hope all this new LMAB kit isn’t a spoiler for you winning this YPC 😂👀

Don't go losing that new net 😂

"Here's my new net, third one this week"😂

Already on the fast track to buying yourself another net haha

Chris, maybe a slightly more random question, your wellington boots seem to be quite wide at the tops like around the calf. Being a larger gentleman myself, I have quite large calves and struggle with most brands of wellington. So really to end a long winded question, I'm asking where ya got the pair in this video? Long time sub and watch almost every upload, keep the great content coming

I love watching your videos, but I have a question. Isn't it better to fish with a wire leader in such conditions, because of all the pike. I live in the Netherlands and you just get bit off if you fish without a leader.

I think you should do a temu lure challenge

Would you please put some 3 in 1 oil on your new net. Happy you got to use it a lot but that screech! 😂

🔥🔥🔥🔥

smashing pike

Hi Chris what’s the reel? Any tips for a decent rod/reel set up?

Do you ever take a perch (or known as Redfin over here in Aus) to eat . One of the best eating fresh water fish

I always struggle in those conditions, No both lures and baits. But I think you just know your river, better than I know mine.

Wow I was thinking that there is no chance to catch fish in this conditions 😳 that's the sign that I will take mine ass next day's off to a river 😂 mhhh will bring soft lures with myself will see how it will work

Hi Chris, what make and size hooks are you using please?

He makes me want to go fishing. I’d love to go with him

Another new net? How many do you already have? Another great video. I like to see them.

Hey Chris , could you leave a link to your new net please

Nice,floodig river,funny but you managed to catch some fish in that condition of river, usually no fish around.

wen i lived in aus we used to eat these red fin perch,tasty

Great video as always, may i ask what does B.F.S. stand for ?
