Perch Fishing | EPIC Redfin Bite
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 เม.ย. 2024
- It's a been a slow year for redfin (perch) fishing. It was great to finally get onto a really hot perch bite with my dad. In Europe these fish are just called perch, in America they have a closely related species called Yellow Perch sometimes called Striped perch. Here in Australia we usually call them redfin, or sometime English Perch.

Hey Robbie, cracking video. Quality father and son time.😊😊😊
Thanks so much mate. 👍👍
Love this video! It brings back memories of fishing with my dad. Best times of my life. Thank you 👍
Thanks so much Aaron.
Great session mate. Never take it for granted fishing with the old man, having lost dad over a year ago now ive learnt that it can be all taken away from you in the blink of an eye.
Those redfin were cracking mate .i love making memories like this with my kids
Thanks so much mate. This was certainly a memorable day with my dad.
Now that’s how you catch Redfin that’s a great day up at the lake Robbie cheers for taking us along
Thanks so much mate. 👍👍
How good is fishing with your Dad!
I need to do it more with my Old Man.
Good times.
Thanks Vince, I'm so grateful that mine is still healthy and able to fish with me.
Hi Robbie,it looks like Lake Buffalo turned it on for you and your dad, great fishing and great memories for you both🐟
Thanks so much mate. It certainly was a ripper of a day.
Cracking fish Mr Alexander.. you did ok to Robbie lmao
Hahaha thanks Matt. 👍👍
Some times you have a day where you have to work hard not to catch a fish!
I've heard of some people casting as far as 20-30 feet from the boat when anchored. Madness! lol
Haha ive been waiting fir tuis video all summer and bow autumn was going to ask when you when you were getting out with your old man
Thanks Sam. My dad drives a school bus on week days so we don't get out as often as we use to.
Great to see you out fishing for Redfin with your Dad once again.
Thanks so much John.
Awesome session mate and how awesome to share it with your Dad 👍
Thanks Butch. 👍👍
Great session Robbie. Out with the old man....love it
Thanks so much mate. 👍👍

Thanks so much Alex. 👍👍

Thanks so much mate. 👍👍
Yeah good on you spending time together
I love the videos of you and your dad. He caught a real beauty in this one. Wonderful memories for you both.❤
Thanks so much. Dad certainly caught the biggest fish on this trip didn't he. Haha 😅
Great video Robbie !
Thanks mate. 👍👍
Awsome watching you and your dad fishing in the boat enjoying a great day , Robbie.
Thanks so much mate.
Can’t complain about a feed of Reddies. Was out a couple of weeks back with a mate, got 3 and gave them to an elderly relative. She loved it
Thanks mate. You're not wrong, they're a great eating fish.
Great day out with Dad!
Thanks for sharing as always Mate.
Thanks so much for watching Robert. 👍
Very envious mate. Not much better than a good day of catching reddies, especially with the old man. Thank you for the video, great work as usual!!!
Thanks so much mate. 👍👍
Great stuff Robbie, really nice reddies! What a great feed you will get from those. Keep up the good work
Thanks buddy. What a ripper day this was. 👍👍
Excellent video Robbie you both got onto some good reddies
Great to you fishing with your dad
Thanks Pete. 🙏
Just goes to show, right place at the right time can't be beat. Some very nice catches and hope you and your dad had a great time and enjoy your feed of Reddies!!!
Thanks so much Larry. I was amazed at how quickly they just shut down.
Been a long time since I’ve seen you catch decent size Redfin !!! Great work
Thanks mate. They've been a bit harder to find this season than they were last season.
Some nice fish there Robbie and good to see Dad get a few too! Back in the day I used to use Baltic bobbers in the lakes round Mt Gambier once a school was located, absolutely deadly on redfin.
Thanks Frank. The good old Baltic Bobbers certainly caught their fair share of redfin didn't they.
Does it get any better than that Robbie?
Beautful weather, scenery, company and hungry fish.
What a cracka of a day.
Thanks for sharing👍
Thanks so much Bruce.
Hiya rob
Excellent, in fact I watched it twice lol..
A perfect day ...and some nice fish , dad did well mate and looks in good form...
A big thank you to both you and dad..
Godbless and hope everyone is well..
😎🏴🎣
Thanks so much for your awesome support Mike. 🙏 I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend.
what a ripper of a session Robbie. I've got to get out there sometime soon. it might be the best 4 hour drive reward
Thanks Kane. It's a beautiful little lake mate. 👍
Love it Robbie, while ur catching fish I’m at the footy getting sad 😂
Keep up the great work and I’ll keep supporting
Thanks so much mate. Why are you sad, is your team losing?
@@robbiefishing yeah I go for north Melbourne, we’re not very good, I’ve been to 15 games in 2 years and never been t a win, we’re just in a rough spot atm
Hey Robbie I love you and dad fishing together mate and your daughter makes us laugh well done
Thanks so much Leslie.
Love the video Robbie
Thanks so much mate.
Another top video gotta make the most of the father son time. The strike tiger looks killa waiting on my first order from them, they sure have a great range easy too get carried away.
Thanks so much mate. That sounds awesome. Good luck with your new plastics. 👍👍
Wow what a good day out on the water plenty of nice Redfin, wish I got Redfin up in Qld 😂
Good one mate looked a fun trip 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Cam, we had a blast mate. 👍
beauty! love the Reddies
Thanks mate. 👍
They were on!! Great work fellas a good feed of reddies! Break out the good mayo Robbie! 😬🍻
Haha thanks mate. Air fryer and mayo. 🤣👍
Good to see the Great man in a cameo apperance
Haha thanks Greg. He's driving school busses these days so it's hard to pin him down during the week. Haha
Nice video.
Now THOSE were some reddies! BETTER than my 2X 3 inchers last week!
Haha 2 X 3 inches beats no fish every time mate. 👍👍
@@robbiefishing True.
I went out to Rainbow Lake this arvo, as my last shout for fishing out here.
I got more fish in 2 hrs there than I have the last 2 weeks around the Wimmera area!
Still, it was a bit disappointing/annoying, as I drove all the way to the Mallee, only to catch 10 bloody RB trout! TROUT for GS!
I go to the Mallee/Wimmera for NATIVES!
I got checked by fisheries also!
Great day out with your dad . I’ve got that same little repala lipless crank bait. Same colour and all . Caught a few yellows and reddies. Cheers Robbie mate 😊
Thanks mate, I was very impressed with how it performed. 👍👍
I’ve actually got a new 1 also . Never been out of the packet lol 😝
What epic trip looks like buffalo is fishing really well like the Basin fishing fanatic.
Thanks mate. Had the basin picked up a bit has it? I need to get back over there. I love that place.
@@robbiefishing the Basin has be fishing really well mornings is ok sunset is just fantastic
Nice day out. Well done.
Thanks so much Bruce.
Awesome bro 😂😂😂😂
Thanks bro.
Great video mate. So good to see you out with your Dad, cherish every moment you have with him. Ps. If my wife ever offers to trim your beard I strongly suggest you politely decline; she’s not to be trusted with scissors. Trim she asked, bloody nearly took my chin off!😂
Hahaha thanks Glen. Sometimes I want to get rid of my beard, but I like it too much. LOL 🤣
@@robbiefishing I sure do miss my beard and my Dad; at least the beard will grow back.
Redfin city🎉
Another day for the memory vault
Thanks mate, you're not wrong. 👍
Best eating fish of all. Wartook res. Colac Lake plenty of reddies..
They sure are great eating. 👍👍
Afew bloody keepers alright!
Haha you're not wrong. 👍👍
Great video Robbie! What was the red baitcaster your dad was using?
Thanks Dane. I am not 100% sure, but I have a feeling it might be one of the older model Daiwa Fuego's.
Thanks for the reply Robbie, i really appreciate it.
The bobber was a killer.
Great days fishing. A good cast would have landed on the boat ramp. 😂
When they're on, they're on.
Haha you're not wrong mate. Then when they switch off, they're off. LOL
Mr dads on the bloody board alright
Hahaha Dad is famous for saying that. LOL 😅😅😅
A ripper of a father and son fishing trip, you must have been sitting on a monster school of reddies...
Always good to take a good feed of reddies, beautiful eating fish and help keep the numbers in check a little 😅
Thanks mate. They really are a magnificent eating fish aren't they.
You should do tourism promo for the Buffalo area!
Nice red fin!
Thanks mate. It would be easy to make, the place is beautiful.
@@robbiefishing Yep! Sure is!
Hey Robbie love the content have you ever fished at bethungra dam heaps of reddies there
Thanks mate, 👍 no I've never been there.
@@robbiefishing Great dam no motorised vessels though great for kayaking for reddies, yella and if your lucky a cod though
Reminds me of Baltic Bobbers.
Are they still a thing ?
I am not sure. I remember using them years ago.
I didn’t see a fish finder. How did you pick your spot to anchor up?
Hi mate, we just troll until we find a few fish and then drop the anchor. There is a fish finder in dad's boat, but it's only a basic one to help us with the depth.
no leeches on these fish? haha one of my best perch session was during the setting sun: had lot of perch ganging up on small rudd near the shore and I used a perch imitation softplastic and every cast i landed fish for 1 full hour was insane as
Thanks mate. Haha stoopid leeches. LOL
Sunset is definitely a great time to fish. 👍👍
Hey robbie how fast do you trawl your lures?
Hi mate, as slowly as possible. Dad's motor is a bit too fast so we always troll at idle speed. If we could go a little bit slower we probably would.
Was looking dangerously like hard work halfway through, but they kept on coming!
Haha 🤣🤣🤣 it was hard work but the best kind of work. LOL
Did you ever use the Baltic Bobber lure back in the day Robbie?
Hi Neil, I did a very long time ago. They worked very well.
Hah, just asked him exactly the same question!
@@robbiefishing I had flashback when I saw you bobbing for reddies. From memory I think they were lead encased in epoxy and you passed the line through and tied a treble on.
@@captainfrank01cool I sort of had a flashback to pass fishing days.
@@neilforbes1082 Yes, with two single hooks facing upwards in opposite directions and they were a very similar colour to redfin too.
Was this in the last day or two Robbie??
I noticed that the air pressure was pretty high yesterday.
I caught about 60 kilos of weed at the beach. 😂
Hi mate, this was last week. 👍
@@robbiefishing thanks.
Is there a boat speed limit on that lake?
There is in parts of the lake, but not the open areas which are popular with water skiing.
Hey Robbie I thought Redfin were invasive and you weren’t allowed to put them back
Hi Geraldine, that is just a myth. You are not allowed to relocate them, it be in possession of live redfin, but you most certainly ARE allowed to release them back into the water in which you catch them in both NSW and Victoria. It is illegal to release them in South Australia though.
hey robbie we cant release in south aus
We can here in Victoria, but only back into the water we catch them.
If I was in SA and wanted to release them I would. Ain't nobody going to tell me what I do and don't have to kill. 👍👍
Hey Robbie i caught my biggest trout on baby redfin i tried to hit off my hook instead i wish i had camera back then the trout jumped out of water to get the redfin this was in the tumut river 1980
WOW Thats unreal. I saw a big rainbow trout grab a blackfish that was hooked once. Haha 😅
Hey Robbie again where was the Friday night live stream this weekend
Thanks mate. Sorru, I was flat out on Friday. I will try and make it this Friday. 👍👍
@@robbiefishing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍you did a typo you said sorru instead of sorry LOL
@@alecedwards3456 He's sorru for that 😁
Robbie fishing come to berthungra dam
Got a 39cm and a 43cm reddie send me your details and I'll send pics dude 👌👌
Big fish secret this one .
Ps if there still in play get 500.00 worth there 25.00 a pop back then lol😂. Worth it but. Get the lot RT WAS A BIG WINNERAND AP STOOD OUT FROM SIX.😂
What’s the legal size for them ?
There is no legal size on redfin. 👍
@@robbiefishing cool since when I went to Tasmania on holidays last year at Big W I bought like a 20 dollar extendable rod and 10 $ spinner lures things and caught 3 Redfin perch in a nice random creek we drove by for my first time btw I live in Northern Queensland so I don’t get them up here
Ps if there still in play get 500.00 worth there 25.00 a pop back then lol😂. Worth it but.
Hay Robbie please don't throw any redfin back, they are pests, there's no bag limit on them. And anglers are encouraged not to release them.
Hi mate, I prefer to release them. The emphasis is on not establishing new populations in areas that don't have them. But in areas where they already exist, I prefer to release them to grow bigger.
You can release them immediately in nsw legally
You do realise they’re here to stay just like carp, there’s no chance of ever eliminating them, they breed too quickly, aswell as being voracious predators
Your dad is not a big fan of catch and release
Like most people he just loves a feed of redfin.
Great stuff!
Thanks mate. 👍👍
