Perch fishing canals in Ireland

Bit of a road trip this one!
Took a crazy notion to jump in the car and drive 3 hours into the south after some Perch!! Canals are not something that we are blessed with and yet it's somewhere I really enjoy fishing!
6 hour round trip but it was super fun with plenty of fish caught!

good video, lovely fish. pity there's very little places like this left in ireland due to netting and people taking way to many fish out

Some great Perch caught there. I haven’t seen any that size for a long time. I remember catching them at Toome lock-gates must be over 40 years ago. Fishing with Mepps I do recall one hot summers day stopping counting at 100. Happy memories, I would be happy these days to catch a couple in a session😀

Where was this, @@castnorthangling5964? I'm always looking for new spots, even if I have to travel... @devlinracing3553: Did you mean Toome Lock in Northern Ireland...?

Very few stretches of the canals around my area have perch. Cormorants and netting have done massive damage

Must be nice to have fish in your canals. They seem to disappear in Scotland between October and May 😄

Are you (forgive me if my terminology is wrong) jigging your bait at the bottom, is that where perch like to hang out?

Yes that's correct
