Hello Sean, but don't you think that regardless of the closed/not closed season dilemma (I have no clue about the open/closed season in the Netherlands), when you start catching fish that are so fat (full of eggs) in this period and hence truly ready to spawn, that you should just pack up, and go home? These fish deserve to concentrate on their spawning in peace. Catching (and handling) them now will only stress them out and probably compromise their eggs and therefore future of the species. What do you think about this? Tight lines

[@whitelabelfishing]

Hi! I understand the reason behind what you are saying. One of the reasons why we have a closed season and also one of the reasons why I think it should change. I would rather see the closed season in a month like august, when temperatures are usually too high and it is far less likely that people will stop fishing for them due to lack of education. Stop fishing for them pre-spawn, has a few issues from my point of view: - Where do you draw the line? February? January? Because in those months they can be just as fat and stress levels won't be different. - When they are actually spawning, they are not feeding. So back to my first point, where do you draw the line? I think the heat does more damage to them, as stress will be even higher and it's harder to recover for them. In all honesty, we got a great pike population with how the rules are today, with everyone fishing for them while they are fat. So all arguments aside, we are discussing a topic on how we could make it even better. Which is good, especially in an open and respectful way! :D

[@paulreid1369]

Fish are full of eggs in nov,dec,jan,feb,march. You want to ban fishing in all of those months ? In general fish will not feed when they are actively spawning. The most damage is done in summer when fish have no energy remaining at the end of the fight.

[@swright5690]

In Canada (one place I went to many years ago), they used a "fish cradle" to handle large pike so they never left the water. The theory being that using their gill area to hold the weight of the fish and just touching them can cause damage and stress the fish.

[@K.B.Fishing]

Geweldige video Sean...zoals we van je gewend zijn :)) Het hartje begint weer sneller te slaan en de handjes te jeuken...'k zal toch nog ff proberen tijd vrij te maken deze laatste dagen van het seizoen ;-))

I wish pike in the USA got that big.tight lines guys🤘

[@whitelabelfishing]

We are blessed here in the Netherlands with this big fresh water fish 🙌

[@PamelaKivi]

You need bigger hooks on the glide baits when you are missing a lot of fish. Try a short shank Mustad 5/0.

[@whitelabelfishing]

2/0 is usually wide enough, bigger trebles generally have a negative effect on the swimming motion

[@noelbouwman1938]

lekkere video weer boy s gaat nooit vervelen dat ze zo dichtbij erop knallen Bamm maaru echt serieus is het nie gesloten tijd? 😂😂😘

[@whitelabelfishing]

Wacko Jacko 😂✌️

[@albinberglund8942]

Great video as always guys👍, I’m curious where are you searching for pre spawn pike? Is it inside the spawning areas outside or somewhere else? I would love to get some tip on how to be more effective in my pre spawn fishing (probably 3 weeks before it start here)

[@whitelabelfishing]

Hi Albin, normally either on the shallow spawning areas or the deep edges close to them. I usually fish the shallows, then the edge and if that doesnt produce, the deeper area ✌️

[@albinberglund8942]

White Label Fishing Thanks for the tip I appreciate it👍, I will try it when it’s time for pre spawn fishing here and give you an update of how it went.

[@passeratti802]

Great films! Do you use SG custom 100g or 170g version?

[@bartvdh]

Nice vid gents! The shallows one my waters are mostly very flat. Do you fish them random while fishing lots of water, or have you collected some shallow hotspots last few years and fish them very secure? Rules about closed season are very clear, only one weekend left 😎🤞

[@whitelabelfishing]

We have a number of spots that we target and based on results and conditions we adapt our tactics to fish them more efficiently ✌️

[@Allusdd]

Tip to Sean: open the bananas from the other side. The nasty dark ending (which u throw away) will stay in the peels and u can eat the whole thing 😎

[@whitelabelfishing]

Nah, this way its much easier to open them man 😂✌️

[@bartvdh]

Thats how monkeys do 😏

[@fsu23]

love your videos, watching from the US. I only fish muskies, but love seeing the big euro pike. I noticed your comment about fluoro leaders, if you are using glide baits which i see in this video you are a decent amount you will get much better action with steel leaders, and also not risk the chance of a true giant cutting thru your fluoro. It is rare but happens, occurs with musky guys too much because they refuse to use anything but fluoro, when steel leaders give better action on any kind of jerkbait. Straight retrieve fluoro is better

[@whitelabelfishing]

Yes, steel or titanium can be better. But the thicker the fluoro, the stiffer it gets and than the benefits of steel or titanium are getting smaller and smaller. I used titanium for quite some time but started to distrust it as it just snaps out of nothing after using it for a period of time. Running multiple rod setups in my boat, it is hard to keep track and in 3 years of heavy FC use and more pike than I can count I havent had a single snap with FC... I know, I was sceptical at first too but with 1.2mm it is so easy to work with, stiff AND you can see when it needs to be replaced instead of steel or titanium. So ye, thats why I am fishing with FC even though steel might have a slight advantage in stiffness (and thus jerkbait action)

[@fsu23]

@@whitelabelfishing understandable, what size steel did you use when you had issues with it snapping? If I get kinks I get pretty paranoid so I make a new one. Usually run with 174lb steel

[@melkbart]

Hi Sean, what water temperatur do you have in the Netherlands now? Alex

[@whitelabelfishing]

It dropped from 9,5 to 7,3 last few days... Cold nights ;(

[@whitelabelfishing]

Echt he... Je zou bijna denken dat men iets te eager is om de ander op “fouten” te wijzen... ow wait 😂😂😂

[@DaFishingGuyde]

Wooowwww, I find it very interesting that Netherlands pike spawn at that temp . Compared to Wisconsin pike that spawn right after ice out at 35 degrees Fahrenheit

[@DaFishingGuyde]

9 degrees Celsius is about 49 degrees Fahrenheit

[@whitelabelfishing]

Yes in Sweden, which is more north like Wisconsin, they spawn at lower temperatures also. I think it is a mix of sunlight, temperature and length of days.

[@tcole3472]

Should invest in a cradle..... Holding big pike vertically for weighing or even handling is really hard on them. I watched your dasland video. Good stuff but these fish should be cradled and only held for a quick picture and immediately put back.

We are not even allowed to go fishing now in the uk.

Nice fish guys ... 🥰 I notice you prefer fluorocarbon to steel wire leader/trace ... is that because of kinking or what ?? And what strength fluoro ? Looks like 50kg.. 😳 Do you ever use titanium traces at all ? 🤔 😎👍☘🍺

[@whitelabelfishing]

Hi Peter, I use fluoro because its easy to work with and it is clear when it needs to be replaced. Titanium suddenly snaps when it wears down, harder to craft a leader with and more expensive

Allereerst toffe content. Maar m.b.t. de corona maatregelen schaar ik je onder dezelfde mensen die massaal de RIVM maatregelen negeren. Ga dan solo vissen i.p.v. met een vismaat. Om vervolgens te fistbumpen na een vangst. Zoals deze video toont is het onrealistisch om 1.5 afstand te houden in een boot. En in de woorden van Lubach: "1.5 meter afstand is minder doden. Minder dan 1.5 afstand is meer doden."

Randie: A, weet je niet wanneer deze video is opgenomen. B, volgens mij is de regel nog altijd geen groepen van 3 of meer. Iets meer nuance zou op zijn plaats zijn ipv mee rennen met de menigte en aan deze stemmingmakerij meedoen.

[@randiemars122]

@@whitelabelfishing A: je hint zelf naar de 1.5 meter regel in je video. B: de 1.5 meter regel geldt voor iedereen willen we het virus indammen. Maar is vanaf 3 personen buiten de gezinssfeer strafbaar en zijn er boetes op te leggen. Dat is het verschil. Het stemmingmakerij noemen terwijl de feiten wetenschappelijk daar zijn wijst op weinig realiteitszin. Dit is precies waarom sommige landen aan volledige lockdowns doen. Nederland gaat ervan uit dat de burger intelligent genoeg is om hier verstandig mee om te gaan. Dit bewijst het tegendeel. Stel je individuele vrijheden even bij om zo de groep te dienen. Wij mogen i.i.g. nog vissen. Doe dat dan solo.
