I’ve been fishing for like a couple years now but most canals are scarce on pike these days and the ones around tend to be small jacks. So I took up the small scaled down approach to catch and started my perch journey absolutely loved it so far.

I fished my canal all autumn into winter once and got a single perch around a poundish. Tried float fishing and had two over 1lb 3oz on my first try. 😂

my best fishing buddy is named Nick, we live in Cheboygan, Michigan, USA; we chase perch and walleye, i'm interested to see what i can learn from you. nice meeting you, Nick.

That was some perch Nick , but you had a lovely one too mate . Keep it coming 👍

Yet again another great day Nik, who's that other geza ?? Think he is ?? Walks up, chucks out and gives you a kick in the pills with an absolute stonker of a fish. Nice to see come up with a reply mate. Well done both of you 👏 great fish, great content and always welcomed viewing 👍 😊. All the best mate, you two will have to get out more often if time allows, I bet you bounce off each other all day. I bet there's people out there that would love a day out on the bank with you guys. Cheers mate Les.

That’s the Korum snapper net, discontinued now but you can still find a few for sale. Korum still make their telescopic handles though, just not with snapper branding on them. I can highly recommend either the opportunist handles or the new Allrounder ones 👍🏻

Cheers for the advise, much appreciated.

Regarding the bits of man made fibre you found, do you collect them and dispose of them or leave them where they are? Would be good if all KZread anglers could be roles models in teaching people to get rid of rubbish they find. Thanks for the great content.

A very good point. It was in the canal, not sure why it was in there. Never had an issue with it before.

@@Lifeonthebank it's such a shame our waterways are collecting such items, hopefully enough angler's out there see the rubbish and clear it up. Appreciate your reply and thank you for the great content.

It doesn't matter what I do, I rarely get anything that size on my local cut. There's some bigguns in there, but the biggest I get, and we're talking below 1lb, are on a Ned rig or a spinner. Any tips?

@Lifeonthebank

8 ай бұрын

I have found that the smaller perch will back off a bit as it gets colder. You’ll get fewer bites but more chance of a biggun! Keeping going mate!! 👍👍

Lovely stuff guys. But surely you had that fish out the water for too long, right?

Great video , but curiosity has got the better of me. Tom's jignead was different in the catch sequence than the review of his set up. An almost white colour. Is he keeping that secret ? B)

Hhmmm … you’ve rumbled him. 😂 Not sure the colour makes a difference personally. I think the weight of the jighead is way more important 👍

I’ve been out on the kayak a few times. I’m going to keep you updated via youtube shorts.
