So refreshing to see bait fishing for perch rather than lure fishing...u have to make a part 2 when u catch the big uns 👍

The camera work in these episodes is world class. I always look forward to episodes.

Great place to fish for perch. We've had 3lb'ers from there during the day. Great video and get back down there.

Massive thanks for sharing, very enjoyable to watch as always :)

That was very satisfying too watch, nice one . Ready for the next perch day out now 👍

nice to see you back gents cracking film btw

Fabulous fish perch i love fishing for them in the winter.

Cracking video and very informative. Keep it up 👊

Well done lads

Fished specifically for Perch for 30 years. Preceding the great Lure revolution. My opinion is bait cant be beat and of all the baits, you cant beat a live bait. My PB runs at 4lb 15oz from just weeks ago. I do lure fish too, quite alot, maybe 50/50 to bait fishing trips. Bait has all the big ones. Look liek it may be one of those venues where they trim the trees and let the litter drop in the water where its left .. snaggy heaven. Feeding windows can often be toward last light but will end before the light goes. I fished yesterday (January) they came on at 3.30pm and off at 5.30, it got dark at 6 (ish)

Magnificent fish

I had a great session last summer, bright sunshine, early afternoon. Fishibg maggots for silvers when noticed Perch following my catches into the bank. Changed to fishing lobworm and had five Perch, 2 one and half pounders, a 2 pounder, a 3 pounder and a 4 pounder, not in that order of course. A great session along with Dace, Roach, Rudd and Chub.

Nothing like chasing a rumour! You're fishing before you get a rod out! 😂

I would rather catch a big perch than any other course fish 🐠,,theres just something about them especially over 3lb 😮

Nice clear little lake.. crying out for some lures 🤣

Nice 🎣 video 👍👍👍. My p.b Perch , was court in New Tradegan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. From a old coal wash pond on top of the 3 Valley area, was pike fishing. Weighing in at 4lb 7oz 😊.

I am a pellet angler, i do occasionally use maggots and white bread in the winter. I am a pleasure angler, sometimes I spend more time bird watching, or any wildlife, just love the British countryside. I use a Shimano aero x5 feeder rod & a Diawa 3000 ninja reel, either 4llb or 6llb bs line on each spool............Perch....most i catch are in the half pound range, but on one hot day 2 years ago I landed one that needed weighing 3llb 4oz, pleased as punch i was, i followed the session with 4 more, smallest being 2llb, early last year, March, I could have sworn i had a bream on, on netting my eye's almost popped out, it was a monster, 5llb 9oz. All these fish took pellets, on that hot day, F1 sweet 6mm pellets, the monster fell for a 6mm garlic and cheese flavour pellet. A friend swears by prawns to catch not only carp, but good Perch alike, but no where near my hauls !!

Great video lads What hooks have use on for prawns?

I am always trying to find waters in north west with them at good size but it’s difficult. My favourite fish

Very good looking Perch! Next time you'll smash it

Get the LBs on.... Guaranteed to find one 😉

I have started to catch a lot of perch from commercials on luncheon meat.

I caught a 3Lb 4oz perch from the river Thurne in Norfolk. What a fish that was to catch.

My PB of 3lb 4 oz came on prawn from a day ticket water near Cleobury.

What line did you use for hooklink please, im new to it!

It's more effective to target large perch with small live fish baits. Small fish will be taken by chub too if they are present and Chub will sometimes take prawns too.

Apparently there's a 3lb beast in a little lake at a campsite we stay at in Norfolk. Going this weekend and gonna try the prawns

Chub like them free lined aswell

Nice one Boy's, I hope you got rid of that snag before you left, looking forward to part 2, Thank you,

Perch in northern USA are typically always persuaded in most bodies of water with live bait. Wild Iive bait being preferred do to better predator pray reactions.

Almost gave up on this channel, not much been posted lately. I'm only interested in sea fishing so Chris when are you back on the beach?

Hey there, .. People have been using shrimp, prawns, scuds, or whatever you want to call them... it's been a classic bait forever… doesn't matter whether it's salt or fresh water… it's a tried and true bait... 👌😎👍

What rod was that you were using?

God forbid if i have to watch any more lure fishing video's. I hate lure fishing. Good to see some proper fishing.

I caught a 4lb plus perch 35 years ago.

When I use prawns I dry them out with salt then use a speed stop rig and they stay on cast after cast

Used king prawns since 2010… whopper perch on em

Get down breakaway lakes small lake . Over 4 and a half pound sergeants in there .

Come and have a go on the Severn or Wye you’ll break that on very easily

You guys sound a bit like the legend John Wilson, are you from Norwich or something?

I've had big chub on prawn

How do i filter out all the vids where they're not fishing for food?

Get some rollovers and use an open bail arm. You’ll miss a lot less takes,

Est quality prawn not cheap supermarket prawns royallceland is the best

Would like to go here one day. Anyone what the place is called ?

hi m8 where is this thanks

What lake u on

Prawns are salty. Add salt to everything.

TAfishing were catching perch on prawns 8+ years ago boys. Big up Graeme and Mike 👍🏼

Am I allowed to say they taste great in breadcrumbs like Scampi.

Using supermarket prawns for fishing is highly dangerous for the health of your water ways ......Here in Australia we have had a a number of disease infect our wild prawn and crustaceans populations due to a "white spot" introduced from people fishing with supermarket prawns...Rethink your bait choices for your river and waterways safety

Your banksticks are much too short and bobbins to heavy and too short, no wonder you missed so many takes. They aren't carp you need long drops and light bobbins to give them time with lower resistance if it hits the baitrunner 9 times out of 10 the perch has dropped the bait

This is standard. Can't catch a carp so literally giving curry to a piss head 😂. Take that anyway you like mate

If that is what you guys call a big fish ,why waste good money on good gear, just go down to a fishing shop and buy a kids set, or buy a plane ticket and come to New Zealand and catch some real fish.

You manipolety to much aut the wathers is not rigth,
