Matt Hayes - Total Fishing - Pike Fishing

[McBaffie]

If the pike swallows any buoyant material it messes up its swim bladder and can kill it. The trace is to make sure you can retrieve the pop up.

[GeneralMaximus4]

did he say oxfordshire?!!

[IgarcoI]

whoohooo baabbby, babby baby!

[Weston1968]

Yawn! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

[orange1642]

@Weston1968 too true.

[TheBlobbywobby]

if u like lure fishing for pike try out using a realy light rod and some heavy pike flys. this works really well on heavly fished waters where fly fishing is not allowed

[1dowsey]

Didn't see the balsa stick come out reckon its still in the herring inside the pike

[JamesWaton]

I don't mind dead bating for pike, but you cannot beat lures and fly's :p for more exciting!

[craigedginton01]

thats my local water, bout 3 miles away from me, first time there about 15 years ago got a nice 17lb 3oz Nearly crapped myself, thanks to the guys who helped me handle it

[jamiejujamie]

Been fishing for about a week, caught two pike smallet 4.5, biggest 6! best feeling ever

[sickboyy2012]

it was eather his knee cracking or the pike..pike make noise just like that when they are out of water..and noises like a frog aswell..

[Bryan7736]

whats with the top gun music at 5:00 lol

[matty2theb]

The pike's going to have a shock when it goes for a shite :d

[paradox1991x]

matt says "get better quality" lol

[daveslow84]

that herring has one serious gag reflex control!!!

[srtcharles65]

Woohoo baby !!!

[MrKoala18]

good video, usefull tips, thanks! Totally irrelevant but at 5:15 there is a hercules?

[stringzmusic661]

haha the yanks stayed well away from the war because when they finaly joined the first world war they got there asses kicked and then when japan shit in there cake they thoght they could be good enouth to take them on still got there asses kicked until the end where all they could do was drop a nuke and then again thoght they were good enouth take on the vietnamese and then had to run away from it because they were being beaten by a third world country who could barely afford weapons to use

[californiacubsfan1]

Enough with the Yank limey talk. Matt Hayes is a good angler but if you want to catch top notch pike come to minnesota or canada you will not be dissapointed.

We call it a bait casting reel not a bait runner, I use one every time when i go fishing the pacific.

How is the trout fishing in england?

Dont get started on war limey, we stomped you twice and the second time you guys cried war crimes because Andrew Jackson massacred thousands of brits in the battle of new orleans:)

[scott666sex]

@Mbsmoothie your a total sack baw, typical american idiot, open that burger destroying mouth and let that fat belly rumble. Last time I checked fishing had f*ck all to do with war so in future do us a favour and don't share your thoughts with us.

[californiacubsfan1]

@scott666sex does the battle of new orleans ring a bell? we were far too busy building the world's greatest infrastructure during those times.

BTW how is life in new pakistan....coughs....... I mean englandistan?

[gnorty]

lol Americans stayed well out of the war until the Japs came and bloodied their nose. Until then they were so ignorant of what was happening elsewhere in the world they did not see the threat.

It wasn't so that Matt can wind backwards, it was so the americans don't have to eat Sushi. Now they can feast their fat asses on McDs and coke.

[wozzagti]

Mbsmoothie does not have a clue on fishing or his history!! Muppet!

[cousins4ever1231]

anyone know good pike fishin spots in NI

[EmielWinters]

@cousins4ever1231 In bijna elk water in Nederland kan je metersnoeken verwachten. Via visplanner.nl kom je een heel eind!

[77DonkeyKong77]

Hay Matt you forgot to take the deadbait out of the pike and it had a frikkin balsa stick in it so that fish is gonna die anyways bro!

[OdoProductions]

i like how he's going on about not getting a run and then gets a few bleeps at 2:06.

[Eyeball1975]

It's a Shimano bait runner, it has a small switch under the main body that lets you back wind, he reels backwards to play out line to the fish, it's a well known way of doing it to anyone who knows about fishing, some people prefer that way to just using the clutch. But, as you are so ignorant with some of your comments to me, I wouldn't expect you to know that. And my teeth are great thanks. Looking forward to your stupid, ill thought out retort.

[Mbsmoothie]

@Eyeball1975 It doesn't matter how old the video is. You can watch ancient bass videos with Kevin Vandam and they'll still be helpful. The video is not helpful. And if it was the top reel of the day what type of reel is it that it reels backwards? Only in Europe would you see some whack shit like that. I'm glad America decided to get our hands dirty and help you ass holes in WWI and II just so you could reel backwards.

[Mbsmoothie]

In no way, shape, or form was this video helpful, Europeans are all ass backwards. Look at his reel for christ sake.

[vanillaiceistheman]

@Mbsmoothie cunt

[Eyeball1975]

@Mbsmoothie This is 15 years old you prick, that was a top of the range reel in its day.

[Mbsmoothie]

@Eyeball1975 It doesn't matter how old the video is. You can watch ancient Kevin Vandam videos and they will still be helpful. This video however, sucks. And if this reel was top of the range in its day, what type of reel is it? Only in Europe would you reel backwards. I'm glad America got her hands dirty to help you all out in WWI and II so Matt Hayes here could reel backwards. Fix your teeth, drink your tea, and watch some football.

[ORIGINOLINDIVIDUAL]

@Mbsmoothie Typical ignorant yank.Its a baitrunner real so it gives you the option to either use the clutch or do it as he is doing.

Matt hayes was one of the best anglers in the world not just the uk.

Your clearly showing you know nothing about fishing.

[Mr60ftlesbianoctopus]

I didnt hear matt say anything about subscribing :P

[joso157]

Oh and to all of those who are saying the pike is now dead because of the deadbait insert. Fox (who make them) are one of the biggest tackle retailers in Europe, it's just a hunch but don't you think they researched intot the effects of them being left inside the pike before releasing the product? Some fish will have all sorts inside their stomach, stones, gravel and debri from feeding on the bottom as only fish such as carp are able to eject the bits which they can't break down for food.

[joso157]

You're kidding me right. How can you call that deep hooked? The top treble was in the edge of the Jaw. He just unhooked it with ease, I've seen idiots fishing pegs next to me that have got themselves in all sorts of trouble and haven't had the right unhooking equipment to sort it out. If you carry two decent pairs of forceps and a pair of long nosed wire cutters you'll unhook any pike with ease no matter where the hooks are. I've been piking for over 10 years and have never had any issues.

[yousaf601]

I went fishing 2day and i cought 2 big pike. one was 4lb and the other 9lb.

The bait i used were little live bream and roach.

I tried dead mackerel but nothing happened.

[neiltreloar]

2 Things,only an ask,I don't know.I've never had confidence to "Chin Up" a Pike,does it hurt them or me,I use a net,but have found that then the hook can get in the net,get twisted and tangled,which is why I have cuts in my net,2nd,did you Fanny around too long playing the fish to get good film,I'd have got it in quicker,am I a Bully? If you keep the rod side on,not high up,I don't think the fish would be swimming on and jumping above the surface,keep them in the water,don't dangle them?

[OriginalMindTrick]

What happend to a pike when it swallowes a bait with that foam in it?

That pike he released could be going thru a agonising death..(?)

[kev0d]

yes its a aeroplane WTF?????

[rbonking]

where is this lake in oxfordshire

[CastAirLead]

Is he leaving the bail arm open or just leaving on the bait runner but really sensitive?

[the0ldknight]

baby baby i think he might be justin beiber

[MrLazyi]

haha matt says subscribe :)

[kevbro321]

ive watched loads of matt and everytime his eyebrows change shape

[kenben2]

There will always be times when deep hooking cannot be prevented. Matt retrieved the hooks just fine. However, what about the balsa stick inside the pikes gut! I thought that this was attached to the treble. Maybe the pike will digest this?? I hope so!!

[bobcena1]

What porno did you get the sound track from? lol! ALSO the deadbait is pencil in the pikes stomach!

[OdoProductions]

sorry everybody, but matt was kind of carless with that fish - i know you shouldnt strike traight away, and you should let the fish engulf the bait, but with a run like he had there the pike was obviously well hooked. then he shows us tht the bait is actually in the pike's stomach! if there was a treble in there that could potentially kill that fish!!

[Tote1883gas]

Wrong, strike stright away or you increase the risk of deep hooking the fish

[OdoProductions]

@Tote1883gas yeaah, matt left it a fair while, and there was a hook in it's stomach :|

[Tote1883gas]

He didnt leave it that long, but it was long enough!, the problem with fishing a popped up bait like this is that the fish can take the bait "in situe" i,e come up to it, take it down and swallow the lot (which is what happened here) before you get an indication on the alarm, and even the flot sometimes. Its frustrating to loose fish by hitting them early, but please believe me its a lot nicer than having to turn their stomach out to get trebles / pop up balsa sticks out of there stomach.

[OdoProductions]

@Tote1883gas i agree, ive had it before now when ive struch a little early and lost a fish

[deryaderya3274]

All very well fishing in Cuba or Tobago, but not many people can go to exotic plkaces.How about some sea fishing around UK> coast, and explaining the baits and lures. It seems to be the same thing all the time on television now.

[jimmy1598]

7:16 bad knee crack!

[teckim]

@jimmy1598 lmao yeh

[onzaHAZ]

coool mate :D

[jkgoude]

a good tip on popping up the dead bait but i prefare mick browns way of using polystyrene(little white balls used in packaging) to insert in dead bait to pop up. not sure how a pike would pass wood in it waste.but good vid anyway

[ggerely]

@jkgoude pike will pass even metal easily as they have very strong acid and quick metabolism. Good tip on using poly for pop up btw. Also try air through needle and syringe.

[SuperPensfan8771]

@jkgoude the pike cant see the would and they probobly cant tasteit because they swallow it right away plus the wood makes the fish look more plump. but anyway ill deffently try that other method and ill see with one is better

[SuperPensfan8771]

@superpensfan8771 ah i feel so dumb i spelled wood wrong

[hulkhomer75]

what a waste... that pike is gone due to a piece of wood in his intestines. leaving the bait fish in its stomach wasnt very "pro"

[robthesamplist]

people eat pike

[MATTNATTMATT]

i eat bears!

[fishsainia]

@MATTNATTMATT dude i found u here iswell? omg ure like a oricle or sumin lol always appear on some of dese vids mesge bak

[bobnudd]

he is making a meal about playing that pike he is trying to make it tail walk ,good method though popping the bait up .

[EggyTrain360]

my uncle matt!- what a cock head

[benbassist1]

My uncle matt :) dont care if anyone doesnt belive me. Its quite funny seeing him on the telly :P xx

[TrimTOODLE]

nobody comes on and says " i dont care if anyone believes me " .. ur an ass... Who gives a fuck if he is... what do u want a fucking scented letter and a medal.....

[MarkCox73]

I never even heard of using any technique like this in the USA? Illegally I've used small live yellow perch

[randomclam8ownz]

i've used redhorse suckers as cutbait and caught 25 lb pike and snapping turtles

[kamilfishes]

wat type of pike is it

[skitllesman98]

umm Northern pike what elses would it be ??

[yoshii00]

he is reeling backwards

[carpcrazykieran95]

he does that instead of using a drag rtard

[yoshii00]

ohhh well ive never seen any pros do that so they must be "rtards" to you asswipe

[RyanGraham07]

Good fish!

[kadeec123]

Q&A

[kadeec123]

Any one from england, manchester who would tutor for fishing?

[CHCHOMP]

he forgot to take the dowl float stick out of the bait!! can that be good for the pike???? great set of vids though:)

[kconq1]

you're supposed to leave it in so the bait is popped up off the bottom

[CHCHOMP]

but wasn't it still in the bait once he'd got the pike on the bank, he pointed it out in its mouth, does the float stick come out the bait when you get a take?:)
