Whoa!! Stop the train people, this fish certainly will!! I hadn’t seen the end of the video until now. That is a “Beano Whooper Edition “ of a fish. Well done for catching it first, second thanks for sharing this video. I absolutely love the fact that you weren’t expecting to catch the fish from where you were! There’s no place not to have a dabble in ( being sensible of course) That’s a crazy size, sometimes you never want to put them back!! You just want to keep admiring them, of course they have to go back to the water, but you know that you’ve been blessed with catching that fish. Awesome. Thanks.

Nice video Adam and great fishing / Perch 👍🇳🇱👍177

Great fish & a great video!!!🎣😎

Great fish 👍

Congratulations ...Well deserved sir

Great fish! and another excellent video!

Absolute monster fish! Congrats on the new PB! That will take some beating...

Many congratulations,Ginger Lord,! And thanks for getting rid of the adverts. What a fish!

Great fish, nice effort with the short seesions. That's the way to do it!

1st #respectthefish Mate 👍 respect for the 40up perch , cheers Adam

A serious, serious perch there mate! Totally made up for you. It’s all about those regular short sessions! Awesome angling! 🙌

Fantastic fishing mate. Well chuffed for you. (and a wee bit envious he he 😜) Great video as usual, I've picked up a few tips from your videos such as retrieve rates and bait sizes. Keep them coming, thanks 👍

Awesome fish, and to think me & Dom were once in a competition to land a 3lb from the Chesterfield canal. You sold me I'm going to get me a BFS set up just starting to look around now, just don't tell the wife!

Brilliant to see those monster perch at the end . I am new to these methods , thank you for explaining . Subbed!

New to you channel but enjoying the videos so far. Congrats on the beast of a fish what a stunner.

Thanks so much mate! And thanks for taking the time to watch the vids 👊

It would be great if you ever get the chance to take some under water action of your various rigs, matched with you hands/rod movements. Probably a big ask, but I think it would be amazingly useful and popular.

Cracking Perch! 👌 👌 👌

The fish of dreams. Just goes to show what a change of tactics can do.

Congrats my man! Huge donkey of a perch! I was wondering if you could do a bit more in depth video of your retrieve especially the twitching with the rod tip! Cheers and again well done!!

Great video - and those fish !! Amazing 4lb-er - well done - nice one ! Thanks for sharing - it's motivated me to get out in the rain this afternoon !

Hi Adam. I very rarely make comments on things but have to say that your intro did make me laugh. I've enjoyed all of your videos that I've watched up to press and am very grateful for the time and effort you put in so that the likes of myself can come along for the ride. I'd have been more than happy with the first perch you caught in this video by the way but have to say what an absolute stonker of a perch to finish on. Long may you continue to keep these videos coming young man 👍

Hi Andy! Firstly can I say a massive thank you for watching and for your support. It genuinely means alot. Glad it made you laugh and you enjoyed the video. Putting yourself out there like this is nerve racking and even a few negative dislikes can knock you but it's comments like yours that keep me posting. I'm just loving hunting these epic creatures out and I'm over the moon to be able to take you along on the ride. Tight lines on your perch season mate! 👊🙌

Interesting! Nice fish, thanx!

Another brilliant video Adam with some cracking perch. As usual expertly presented and what a brute of a personal best. Im really looking forward to see how your predator season develops if this is anything to go by. Wow!!!!👏 👏👏💪

Definitely getting a BFS set up after watching your videos. I do have a couple of questions 1) what influences your choice of rig for any given situation? 2) Have you had any problems with getting bitten off by pike?

Great video and explanation, as always Adam. Massive congratulations on your PB. What a fish and sod’s law that you couldn’t show the he take and fight of the two biggies 😒 . BTW I’m unable to get notifications from you. Is that your settings? Cheers.

Hey Adam, Saw you guys yesterday on the canal, I was on the lake behind the canal! Some good fish there. That stretch always produces some nice perch this time of year, beginning of March is good as well. Have you tried the lakes that are connected to the same club??

Hi mate. Love it. Give me a shout next time would love to say hi! Yea I know the stretch quite well 🤐😉 I haven't fished the lakes much but the few times I have I've found fish. It a fabulous area for perch fishing! As you already know! Hopefully see you on the bank soon mate and thanks as always for watching the video!! 👊🙌

hi mate do you think the crayfish imitation texas rigs only really work in london due to the natural presence of crawfish? ive tried a lot of these soft plastics texas rigged and they dont reallly seem to give me much luck up north. cheers

@Watercraftfishingtv

Hi mate. I think the presentation works all over the country but mainly because it's something grubbing around the bottom rather than it specifically looks like a cray. In places where there are only native crays or no crays at all I tend to use more of a stick bait presentation like a TRD or a Ticklerz or even a floating shad fished hopping along the bottom. But the same retrieve and technique and it still works both north and south. Hope that helps mate 👊

Hi mate what do you use as you leader material?

does that creature bait float if just chucked on the surface with no weight?

@Watercraftfishingtv

3 жыл бұрын

Yea it will. Obviously depends on the weight hook you use. But it will stand up lovely on a Cheb or Texas rig! All Zman lures float because of the type of plastic they are made from! 👊

Hi Dean. You want to look for an 8 strand braid. The Shimano kairiki in 12lb (sorry if that is mis spelt) is a good option. I go up in breaking strain to aid in not getting broken off in an over run and fish it with finesse Fluro leaders. I try and explain more in my BFS lockdown vid if you want to see more! 👊 Cheers for watching mate! 🎣🍒
