that's great I've seen you catch both carp and tilapia on lures. you must like a challenge

@ScaleUpadventures Жыл бұрын

Always happy to give it a go and see what happens. I fond most fish with have a go at a small soft plastic. Also find a little scent makes a big different

Are they like the carp we have in Melb?

@ScaleUpadventures Жыл бұрын

Yeah they are the same as they live in every creek or lake around the place

Only thing in common is they are a noxious fish "vermin". They are part of a family of fish cichlidae. This species originate from Africa. One of the world most farmed food fish.

Really good feed,one of my favourites. Pity some way cant be arranged for catch and cook only. Thank you for the upload.

Yeah its a real shame you can't keep them for food but I guess some people would spread them to other lakes .

Mate that's a good pond, have done exceptionally well in that one,, used to get some real good spangled perch in there once, but now none. Took 29 not long back, their real tigers in that puddle.....

Spot on mate. Haven't seen any spangled perch in there but then again I've only fished it the one time. Hope there are still a few hiding somewhere.

In California, it's worked out quite well, because Tilapia are food fish for Largemouth Bass, Pike and Muskellunge. And the Ospreys hunt them. We never seem to run out of Tilapia. By the way, the one you caught is a Mozambique Tilapia, also called Saint Peter's Perch, also found in the Sea of Galilee.

Thanks mate. Yeah I don't think they ate anywhere as bad as people say they are. Hopefully they change the law so we can harvest them for food

Thanks for sharing the vid, good fun, were you saying that they NEST in the shallows ? i know they catch them in North PINE DAM , such a shame they are a good looking fish, i know Somerset Dam now has quite a few exotic pests as well. Cheers mate tight lines, Chris

Hey mate glad you enjoyed the vid. I have seen them nesting in pretty shallow water in this pond and heaps in pine dam also. Havent target them there as yet. They are good fun to catch

Would you use a sinker on your line or just a small hook?

@ScaleUpadventures 3 ай бұрын

I just use a small hook no sinker. But if it's windy or you need to cast further out a small sinker would be fine.

@marlonb.8243 4 ай бұрын

These fish are also called "St. Peter's Perch," because these were being fished in the region during Christ's & Peter's time and before. They are even here in Southern California, and the local Ospreys eat them regularly, and they never run out of Tilapia as a food source. The ones you caught with the red-edged fins are Mozambique Tilapias.

Ohhh thanks. I have heard of them called mozambique name before. St Peter's Perch is a new one to me. They definitely breed in big numbers

They are really good eating fish... not sure why they won't let you guys eat them? If more people eat them, the tilapia fish will go faster.

@ScaleUpadventures 8 ай бұрын

Yeah I totally agree with you. I think they are worried that people will deliberately spread them into new waterways. However, with the floods we recently had, they have pretty much spread everywhere already

Yep it is a stupid law. Was brought in because lots of people do stupid things. Including customs for allowing them into the country in the first place for aquariums.
