  • The UK's No1 angler - Matt Hayes - targets specimen pike and perch on Eyebrook Reservoir in Leicestershire. It's the first time the trout venue has opened to predator anglers and some of the country's finest big-fish men were there in anticipation of fireworks...

    okay i have a story im 11 years olld and just today i went fishing on my own and a didn't catch anything but there was a yellow perch biting at my artificial bait and then i cast out and my line breaks so i put on a hook and keep fishing then i thought to my self i didn't catch anything yet and when my mom and sister came to get me i grabbed my fishing rod but i saw the broken line and so i reeled it in because my fishing hook was still on there and sure enough i felt tugging on the line and i kept on pulling it in and there was a 2 pound yellow perch there and my mom and my sister watched the hole thing

      try on the ice this winter if you can with tip ups I bet if you go in the spring wen ther on there beds u will with bass baits or big minoes , just have to keep trying and you will eventually get big pike they feed a lot

      You probably live in the southern United States. Pike don't really live there unfortunately. Pike and musky are mostly found in the northern states and Canada

    Hi Matt, Excellent Vid, in your honest opinion what weight do you Recon the pike could reach at Eyebrook considering the sheer size of the water etc ?

  • @BackCountryBrdr
    @BackCountryBrdr 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Okay so I get that pike stay deep in cold water. What I want to know is A). Do they stay near drop offs or do they just go to the deepest part of the lake and chill there. and C.) What happens during the late evening? Do they come close to shore or more towards the surface? Or are they just always always in the cool bottom part of the lake. Advice is needed ASAP since it's so late into the summer. Please help!!!!!!

    • @Danell87
      @Danell87 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +BackCountryBrdr they come closer to the shore the colder it gets in the water. At around 7-8°C it's perfect for shallow water fishing. Wading works well for us in Sweden. Best fishing end nov, beg. dec.

      I found that 12 foot of water on the middle of drop offs were best ,on inland lakes in Michigan here

    • @aaok5220
      @aaok5220 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      never caught big pike in deep water yet,not saying they are ther ,but they are were the food is.; shallow and on drop offs in 10 foot of watwer is always were I find em

    • @matthewday8167
      @matthewday8167 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      They don't always stay deep in cold water. The cold water bears more oxygen, so they can tolerate warmer when they are feeding near oxygen rich water. Here in Canada, you can find smaller & younger (up to say 60 cm) Northern Pike in waters as warm as maybe 15 celsius. The big mature ones stay in cooler waters, unless there is a nice bubbly stream or waterfall or something. They love to hang out near the drop-off in the cool, and rise to snap up a passing treat. Early in the year they will hang out amongst weed beds along with Musky at shallow depths. If you catch them when the ice is off, and they have all spawned, you can catch great big pike all day in the shallows. I caught 3 pike over 36 inches in 20 minutes off the cottage dock one fine March morning. And that is not especially good pike fishing typically.

  • @Rebellen007
    @Rebellen007 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe the "warm water no bites" is just a myth. I have a cabin near a big freshwater lake in Norway, and last summer it was record temperatures in and above water. I thought we'd struggle getting anything but it was the complete opposite. Both trout and perch bit like never before!

  • @ZeroGorDIE

    i spent 6 hours today trying to catch my first pike... 4 in the morning 2 at night sundown. threw everything in my tackle box... my favorite fire tiger spinners... nothing. I see a big pike smack the top 20 ft away. still cant catch fuck all... that elusive first pike.

    • @Deathst4lker

      I fish almost every day - for at least an hour or two. I sometimes catch two or three pike in a day - but mostly I go days and days without one. It's not called the fish of a thousand casts for nothing ;) Just keep plugging away - it will come !! ;) ;)

      Pike where my first ever fish on cheap Argos tackle at the age of 10. My advice - never give up and take two rods where possible one for ledgering and fish two species - but never give up.

    Some how pikes lears how to hunt on waves.
    It was a trout lake,and pike was a monsters.

  • @chshet
    @chshet 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My tip big pike like big lures also if you like fishing in the winter time try fishing with dead bait in or near a haven roaches and bream usualy go there to sit out the winter the pike will follow they are a bit slow because of the cold water thats why dead bait has my personal prefference .

  • @denosi
    @denosi 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    What I'd like to know is this: Matt says he suspects the pike staying down low in the colder parts of the water. He's caught several on a jerkbait, though, so I was wondering if those are really deep sinking jerkbaits, or if he actually caught them close to the surface still?

    • @skateboardingjesus4006
      @skateboardingjesus4006 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The thermocline in some lakes isn't that deep and even less so where there's current mixing. He said he was stripping the jerk-bait in fast, which would easily get it deep enough. I've noticed pike more inclined to take a faster lure merely out of competitive instinct. These predators have evolved with a keen awareness of other predators making the most of missed opportunities.

    In my experience in warm water conditions fish look for oxygen. Oxygen is found in shallow water near the suface not in the depths. Water temperature is irrelevant when life giving oxygen is needed. And when oxygen is in short supply in really hot weather fish are often seen surfacing and sometimes dying so I don't agree.
