Brilliant underwater footage. What I found interesting was for the first second or two they didn't realise they were hooked and got me thinking about striking on a bite, maybe I should wait a little longer before hitting the bite. Thanks for a great video.
I caught a 2lb 11oz Perch on the river Weaver many years ago,to me the most beautiful fresh water fish. I have ever seen since it was my first catch in 1958 with my dad on winsrsford flashes,all 3oz of it, however your camera work I have never seen before and it is absolutely fantastic,please keep it up.
The paternoster on a short weight leader, is probably the ideal rig for circle hooks, because the fish hooks itself almost immediately as it pulls against the lead.
Very astonishing insights into the life under water. I love such Videos, I really love the high quality of your videos, very nice. Keep it up, iam excited for your upcoming videos.
I'm continually amazed at the size of the Perch in your water systems. I wish we had fisheries like that here in Wisconsin and Northern Michigan. But then the people would destroy them in no time by over fishing.
Amazing how fishes are so closer ! How the camera does not affray them, how they are so calm in your hands, as if they were feeling your love ;-) Thank's a lot for these times up&underwatter ))
Biggest perch I ever caught while growing up in Saskatchewan was around one pound. Perch are really great fish to pan fry and eat as their meat is white, firm and flaky. As well, perch takes well being salted and dried for preserving over long periods of time but typically this is only a traditional Asian method of preserving fish for long periods of time where there were no means of refrigeration like we have today.
I appreciate that but in the UK we really pride ourself on catch and release especially due to the problems we’ve had over the years with these coarse fish
ahaha :D Just 1 example...We tried perch fishing 50 times this year. My biggest one was around 1 pound...Caught some pike, zander , and few diff species, but big perch is a jackpot and rrly hard to get. Ppl use special nets for Perch and they destroyed 95% of our lakes/ponds...No law + stupid ppl = No fish
I have caught 50+ in a session on any number of occasions, and thrown them up on the bank. Take them home for compost as I don't eat fish. Up to a couple of kilo. Just to take the piss and rub it in. However! They are a feral pest that is endangering our natives and they are like rabbits. In fact, it is illegal to return them in many states.
*****YOU MUST READ THIS FULL COMMENT!!***** Nice perch, but certainly no monster as the title implies. I just finished watching a lake fishing video in Norway where they were consistently pulling out insanely sized perch unlike anything I have ever seen before. Can you imagine a 7 pound perch? I couldn’t until I saw that video! They caught a bunch of four pounders and even a few 5 and six pounders! It really was an unbelievable watch! I should link you to it and come back and edit this post for you to see it. Btw it’s ok if your perch aren’t that size, I enjoy seeing one and two pounder perch caught...the right size for the frying pan! They certainly are not monster sized perch though! Keep up the good work, I will be back with that link! ****Here you go my red headed friend! Check out the video below on catching monster perch. It is literally unbelievable how they managed to catch so many insanely huge perch on a single day of fishing. Be sure to watch the second day of fishing as the first part on day one they got skunked. Day 2 is like they received a blessing from the fish god or something! It is so unreal of a video that I had to watch it twice! Enjoy!**** ***Edit: as promised I came back to edit my comment and add the craziest perch video in TH-cam below!*** th-cam.com/video/3XZv7mV8_IM/w-d-xo.html
The video you were watching wasn’t in Norway but in the Netherlands, I live in the Netherlands and sometimes I catch perch that are over 5/6 pounds and they put up a great fight!
I understand live baiting is not everyones cup of tea, it's a subject that always raises strong emotions and views. However something is confusing me in these comments I'm reading... Can I just ask all you people out there commenting about how you don't agree with live baiting, why are you here, watching a video that clearly states in the title "live baiting" for perch? I suggest you all f off and watch a video about dead baiting instead. Love your channel. Great video as always, keep em coming dude.
Those who object to putting hooks into live fish should perhaps have a good long think about what they are saying.? and might want to take up another pastime.
I suggest its you that needs to take up another pastime, rather than posting silly comments on a subject you obviously know very little about. The word " troll " springs to mind.
Do you always consider that people who hold different views to you ''obviously know very little''.?...that is called being an exceptionally arrogant presumptious fool I have been fishing for Perch (and Pike) since the early 1960s, and while I never claim that I know all there is to know, but I do know through the long years of trial and error the pros and cons of the different methods. I do know for sure that fishing involves hooks going into fish, a reality which you seem to be uncomfortable with. The word to describe you which readily 'springs to mind' isn't one which I care to post online
At a guess I’d say it was a Yorkshire river. Great video and I loved the underwater footage. I used to use small Gudgeon for perch up to 3 1/2 lb. At that size they take on an almost prehistoric look. Very angular and muscular.
ginger first time i have come across your videos, great under water camera work . nice perch also. i love the colours from large perch .they are not slimy either. i noticed a barbel . good little river also . a lot of the good rivers near me. are mostly run by clubs . looking forward to your next video . well done .
Wow!! Too many couch anglers in here crying about the poor little live bait ahahahahahaha You do realize what this is right? It's fishing, not a vegan assembly!! People getting over sensitive on fish-care, don't do this and don't do that need a reminder! Next fish you catch, take home, fry it, eat it, remember what the real meaning is to all this. Honor what nature gave you by EATING IT. The whole meaning of catch and release was to.... keep it healthy, so that you can take some more home in the future! Over sensitivity about a fish's life it's just a 21st century schizophrenic phenomenon just like the vegans are.
Amen to that brother, but, unfortunately we(or, at least the majority of people) are not true Christians lol thus everything we do has a selfish background... others? What others? Often, what we think of doing is not what originally triggered the action, is not what motivated the action. 99% of "C&R" anglers do it just because everyone else is doing it... and slowly becomes an obsession.
And your point is? I like fishing so you are likely to see me on fishing videos. My question is, as you are obviously against fishing judging by the comment you sent me on the other thread, why are you on fishing videos? A lonely troll perhaps?
Caveman Protogonos LOL, you are so wrong...Using alive fish as a bait is torturing to the bait fish and fishing should not be torturing. using alive bait fish is pure cruelty to animals. Responsibility is part of fishing and that means for example not to cause unnecessary pain and suffering to animals. Sorry to say but you sound like weak and insecure wannabe psychopath teeny bopper who think that he is a tough guy when being cruel to helpless animals. Be a real man and be responsible on your actions. You give bad reputation all the good fisher and hunter by being a total asshole. ps. your ultimate egocentric way to see world and people's actions is unnatural. naturally humans are build to work together and do non-egotistic actions. In the time of cavemen you would be punished because of your sociopath and egocentric approach. Now you can play with your delusional ego and be a super egoistic, but that is a false which will backfire to you big time.
Mark, I have been watching many of your videos filmed in such clear water but have never imagined how much rubbish is thrown in your rivers. Ive seen umbrellas, road cones and some very nice fish. really enjoying the videos
ZeusesCannons in Croatia Barbel are so easy to catch whenever you see a barbel just throw me sweetcorn and then throw a few pieces of corn on a hook and it always bites that simple! I only got my first proper rod this year but last year I caught 3 big barbel in 10 minutes just with those rods which you use for minnows, which just have one circle at the end of it which you tie your line to and no reel
ZeusesCannons I think that they bite on a lot of things, as they have also been known to feed on minnows, also maybe it would be harder to catch them in more heavily fished areas, but it seems to me they take on loads of different baits, and they put up much more of a fight than other fish I have caught of the same size
Merci Ginger, c'est très agréable, l'on vit une bonne respiration de continuité de vie lorsque tu relâche les perches ! c'est très très bien lorsque l'on film d'envoyer de tels signaux, Merci beaucoup. Tu sais, j'ai été si blessé hier de voir un minable de gros porc qui montrait comment énucléer les perches pour pêcher avec leur oeil . Ce n'est pas tant ça que le fait que cet inconscient de charogne le fait quand la perche est vivante ! Alors Merci, tu me répares de cette abominable video. Je te remercie d'exister, tu me sauves sur ce coup là ! Que tout ce passe bien pour toi et tout ce que tu aimes !
Using alive fish is a total cruelty to animals. Alive fish should never be used as a bait. In many countries it is forbidden to use alive fish as a bait because it is cruelty to animals. For example in the Ireland it has been forbidden by law for decades.
The Ginger Fisherman Yeah, the point was that it is cruelty to animals...every responsible fisher respect the nature and the animals. Specially you should respect fish, because you are a fisher. And because you make videos, which many watch. So they learn good and bad habits from you. You should specially think kids and children who watch your videos...
+merry ferry agreed, in a fast stream you can easily substitute a plastic fish or a long thin silver spoon. This is not a good image of fishing to broadcast, when our hobby is continually under threat from animal rights folks. Good fishing action and great footage, wish I had an aquarium like that but quit the live baits, it's not necessary.
+merry ferry stop trolling,its common practice in many countries to use live baits including here in australia,what's funny is the bait is usually part of the target fish normal diet.Stick to your basket weaving yeh.
+Trent Mcintosh I am not trolling. Fish also feel pain and suffer. There is lots of artificial bait for use. For 99% people fishing is a hobby, so no need for torturing the fish as a bait. Least what a fishers can do for the fish is not cause any unnecessary pain and suffering while fishers are practicing their hobby. In spite of the fact fisher take all from the fish, the life of the fish, they should not cause any unnecessary pain and suffering to the catch or other fish...
A beautiful Perch! Nice underwater work. I love circle hooks, but they are hard to take out of the bones on Mahi, Mahi, Many countries also sell "Live Baits!" Even here in Canada.
Amazing size on those perch very nice underwater catch footage. Especially with the way the pervhbare holding the bait and you set with out the hooking but still they go right back on to the bait. Amazing
Great video. Beautiful fish. I’ve used circle hooks for a long time. I find that if you try to set the hook when a fish bites you will most likely pull the hook right out of it’s mouth. On the other hand, if you let them take off with the bait and then just reel down on them the hook finds it’s way to the corner of the mouth and sets itself. I love not injuring the fish.
Biggest issue using the circle hook, the individual fishing has to allow time for the fish to actually hook itself. Thoroughly enjoyed watching you having a great time catching perch.
That looks like a river I know in Wilts. Of course, that's the only river I know in the UK, so I might be wrong. As far as live bait goes, those perch sure seem to approve. Beautiful water and beautiful fish. Good on ya, mate!
Brilliant underwater footage. What I found interesting was for the first second or two they didn't realise they were hooked and got me thinking about striking on a bite, maybe I should wait a little longer before hitting the bite. Thanks for a great video.
I caught a 2lb 11oz Perch on the river Weaver many years ago,to me the most beautiful fresh water fish.
I have ever seen since it was my first catch in 1958 with my dad on winsrsford flashes,all 3oz of it, however your camera work I have never seen before and it is absolutely fantastic,please keep it up.
Legend has it, that umbrella is still there!
I bought it off him for a tenner.
Other legends says the camera is still trying to focus
Well ,umbrella Is necessary with rain.....😁🤷
@@serfish101 It doesn't actually rain underwater matey.
legend says that if you like the ginger fisherman video the button will turn blue!
Legend mate under water footage is brilliant it’s good to see them feed 👍🏻
Excellent underwater footage again Chris.
Such brilliant footage. Thankyou for sharing. 😀👍🐟
Always used jigs or worms for perch will be ordering some circle hooks 👍 cracking fish.
Ginger fisherman you have become my top fave fishing vids. Love how you show fish caught underwater, just brilliant mate.
The paternoster on a short weight leader, is probably the ideal rig for circle hooks, because the fish hooks itself almost immediately as it pulls against the lead.
Very astonishing insights into the life under water. I love such Videos, I really love the high quality of your videos, very nice. Keep it up, iam excited for your upcoming videos.
i wish i had river like this in my country...
You have ! Learn fishing haha
no, he hasnt...
I dont ... i am fishing 12 years in true lakes and rivers not like you in fcking restaurant
Michal Licko where do you live buddy?
I live in slovakia :/ its not like czech republic ... they have rivers like this but we dont
Excellent under water photography. Its awesome to see them take the bait 👍
I'm continually amazed at the size of the Perch in your water systems. I wish we had fisheries like that here in Wisconsin and Northern Michigan. But then the people would destroy them in no time by over fishing.
So true. People don't know how to catch and release.
Different species
I'm very happy to see circle hooks being used. Last time I tried to buy some they weren't easy to get though. I got mine when in America.
Luv the umbrella lol great fish
I thought it`s an umbrella at 2:14 ...
Ha ha, yep!
Amazing how fishes are so closer ! How the camera does not affray them, how they are so calm in your hands, as if they were feeling your love ;-)
Thank's a lot for these times up&underwatter ))
So clear river so smooth movie. Love it!
Thanks for this fantastic video.How lucky you are to have such a nice river whith all these perchs in so clear water.
My fist time watching your videos - brilliant stuff - you've got me hooked! -
Superb underwater filming. Great stuff 👍🏻
That’s so awesome how your filming the underwater catch.
Какой окунь смелый, камеры не боится. Красота!!! Ну и C&R, браво!!!👏👏👏
That barbel was chill 😂
What a cool video! Very well done sir. Who doesn't love monster perch!👍
Hey
your underwater filming is nicely done. congratulations
You put underfishing to shame with some of the underwater stuff my friend!! ❤
Absolutely awesome thanks for sharing!

How are those fish not spooked by you? It's like your fishing in an aquarium
Perch aren't the smartest fish. Overall very easy to catch.
Pikes are some serious predators, that footage was brilliant!
The water clarity! Beautiful perch too, what county are you fishing bud? Lovely barbel spotted too!
Terrific video. Love being able to watch the fishies eat the bait.
try to catch em on the ultralight fishing gear
0,5 - 0,75oz glass tip, main line something like 1,5-2lbs and for ex. a picker rod :)
My favorite type of fishing :) Wish there were some big perch like these in my country...But they are as rare as a unicorn xD

First class video. Nicely done.
Lovely to see those perch, & caught on live Baits, well done, 😁
Beautiful size perch. Circle hooks working great with near zero mortality. Probably a few big brown trout in that creek too.
Not sure about live baiting but underwater camera work excellent .
Excellent filming. Its given me ideas for catching big perch that live under my boat. 😃
I was more interested in the barbel .
Great channel and love the under water filming brilliant mate 🎣

I came here to see the monster perch not the livebaiting.
I would rather not catch big perch than catch them with live fish.
Oh and...f off yourself!
And just how would you know whether the fish is traumatised or not?

Them underwater fish takes are brilliant nice one.
Your vids are awesome. One question, do you fix the weight or is it free running up the line above the swivel?
Looks like a fixed weight, I assume, the idea being to minimize the movement of the live bait.
All I can say is... glad I'm not a small fish, every moment of their life they have dinner written all over them. Brilliant underwater footage !!
great size perch..good luck fisherman..
At a guess I’d say it was a Yorkshire river. Great video and I loved the underwater footage. I used to use small Gudgeon for perch up to 3 1/2 lb. At that size they take on an almost prehistoric look. Very angular and muscular.
Just a barbel in the corner minding its own business!
Great stuff man. They look like they are your pets... Nice spot. Excellent fotage. Thx a lot. I had a lot of fun watching it.
Fried Perch is very good
I dont know if the perch is 20 years old but i do know they fry up great. The best!
Superb underwater footage! 😮
What kind of fish are hiding under the perch 5:41?
I believe it's a barbel.
Thanks Lukasz
That my friend is an ill looking barbel
It's a catfish you spazz that ain't no barble

I was wondering what that was ...
He likes cheese more 🤣
Same
Cracking vid and cracking fish ! Learned loads - thanks Chris - top drawer as always
That fish in the corner I can’t identify it, it is huge.
looks like a barbel to me, at 5:40 you can see the barbels of the barbel :)
Carp
@@nathanmai9901 definitely a barbel
From Ireland pal and I have to say tops video..great job
These fish naturally eat live fish....why don't you go tell the perch off....if you think its cruel
Beautiful underwater footage, looks like a lot of fun, and a delicious fish when you decide to keep and eat a few.
We don’t in the UK.
You need glasses or the person behind the camera, My eyes lol
Really nice camera work. Yellow perch one of the best tasting freshwater fish
Wow!! Too many couch anglers in here crying about the poor little live bait ahahahahahaha

Best footage iv seen of perch biting. Awesome!
Top notch little film buddy,thoroughly enjoyed it! Keep up the good work👍
great fishing and video. love them big perch on such small river.
So lucky to have rivers like that mate. Good work
Fanter Fishing ya in sweden the rivers have perch like the bait he using
I am amazed at how he inhales and spits out without getting hooked. A sensitive rod is a must when going after inhalers like perch and zander.
Great video! Keep them coming! Don't let all the whining about the 'poor' bait and your way of fishing change a thing, and keep on keepin' on.
it was good to meet you today mate, il definitely try the river!
Bloody ripper mate. Nice looking perch.
Great under water video. Nice one.
Seriously good footage, mate!
The water is so clear. Looks like you're fishing in an aquarium. 😁
very good underwater shots.
Thank you! Very good! Moscow, Russia
Nice video and interesting to see what goes on down there !
Poor old barbel was a bit camera shy though :D
Well done fantastic fishing and a great video too!
