I Never Expected A Fish This Big To Eat The Lure!

Well that time is upon us. Its the end of the river season here in England and unfortunately the rivers are not in the best conditions. With that I decided the only thing worth doing would be targeting big perch in the slack waters one last time. I hit all the areas where I've caught big perch this season to try and end it on one last big fish. I ended up with quite a large unexpected catch!

@snagged bro..... 😂😂😂❤ Banter. Poor lads ! Give em a chance Chris. Or lessons. 😂

[@PeteRumley]

It would be a dream to have a day fishing with Chris learning some valuable tips on how to catch! Be incredible 🙏

[@paulastin944]

What a fantastic end to the river season! Showing SB how to multi species fish and giving them a ribbing was well funny!!

[@jacksnaith9903]

Love ittt

[@danfriar1990]

Its mad how many fish you can catch when you set the hook 😉😂

[@carljames9351]

When you take the time to look at a perch, you can see how prehistoric they look. Absolutely amazing fish.

[@michaelsicowitz362]

Some really decent genetics going on in that river. Here in Wis we don't have perch like that anymore. We have Lake Michigan but that's not considered inland fishing - monsters in there, huge stocked trout and salmon, but I'd rather have what you have. Healthy fish, nice vids.

[@leongoerger9768]

The perch in the us aren’t the same species as in Europe they just don’t get nearly as big as the European species

[@potats1770]

European perch get larger than yellow perch in the USA

[@uvveshlurvvesh6515]

European Perch can grow in perfect conditions up to 60cm but its more common to see them at around 40cm

[@jamesross1799]

​@@uvveshlurvvesh6515do you mean cm? We use pounds of weight.

[@uvveshlurvvesh6515]

After getting lots of Perch through the season it completely died....I was still getting small Pike though but, in the end, my last trip on the River Nene last Wednesday ended up lasting 6 casts....The torrential rain on the Sunday and Tuesday had buggered it good and proper (after getting 3 sessions in after the February floods)......Never mind though, June is but a few months away. Can't wait to get my BFS setup used again.... As for weedless.....bloody love it and it got me many fish (Pike and Perch) during the weedy summer....I've always got some made up with me on the bank.... Loved the Snagged Bro comment....made me smirk as they mention you a few times :)

[@tiamariathompson7392]

Good thing is this is a proper fisherman catch & return. Thats fishing.

[@petercalthorpe7966]

G'day Chris, awesome Perch and Pike welldone. All the best form down under mate 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏👏👏

[@trevorcornes1056]

You done brilliant for the last day Chris,amazing what you caught 👍 well done mate.

[@chrishockley3990]

One of my favorite uploads right there! Quality content from start to finish

[@paulshoemaker5957]

Pure nostalgia! Uncle Ted used to take us down the poo pipe in the summer with a pocket full of change. We used to sing "Poo pipe poo pipe keep it Shtum, Poo pipe poo pipe don't tell mum". I used to love his game of steal our shoes and walk home bare foot.

[@chrisclark4112]

Uncle Ted knew what was good for ya 😊.😊

[@simonstaples8784]

Love the fishing and all your content. Learnt so much over the last year or so from, so thanks very much, keep it coming 👍🏻

The Ginger Rivermonster strikes again🎣 You are making very nice fishing videos.Chears from Denmark 🤘🏼🙂

[@waltgrisly509]

Grand session, cant wait to see the next video. "end of river season" - do you mean trout time?

[@rjbrn67]

Excellent video!! Loved seeing all those big yellow perch and very nice pike! Very motivational. Thank you and keep it up...

[@AdamsAnglingTv]

Awsome nice perch.. and pike i love your videos they are like theropy an slways lift my mood🎣🐊

[@needham831]

What a vid and what a day Chris. 🙂Those are some fine early spring Perch which are going to weigh much more in the summer. I hope we get to see a repeat summer session too. By the way, loved the Snag Bros banter 13:45. And it sounded a bit like you said a nice couple of "slags" over there at 2:10..But the Pike are the cherry on the cake. Those are two awesome end of river season fish. Awesome fighting power. Although you still worry me at times using monofilament when you know there are Pike...(Big Ones too). Just switch to a fine supply 12 to 16 pound wire when you fish there for predators next time. I'm sure you'll still get the big Perch interested too. 🎣🙂

[@imraduin]

Lol casually calling out Snagged Bro 😂

[@DylanSearle-pv7pg]

Love you’re videos helped me throughout my fishing

[@dangar8317]

Chris thank you so much for all the tips and guidance, you catch so many good fish yet again, great perch amazing pike. hope to see more great fishing from you

[@murraymints171]

Always so impressed with you accuracy in casting. I think it would cost me a fortune in lures to get that good.

[@markfiges999]

Thats what I call a season closer thanks Chris.

The one by the poo pipe the one by the tree. I don’t know why, but that just hit me right and I laughed for 10 minutes. Great video sir. I’m watching in Arkansas not the you would even know where that is but fishing is fishing and you do it well.

Bravo mate!!

Superb video Chris thank you such a shame about closed season on rivers I think why do they still enforce it

[@DanS360]

Thanks Chris for another great season.. bring on June 16th.

[@sidunn1634]

Doubles only ❤

[@foylad4862]

Nice vid Chris 👍 would you bother with spinners for perch, or would you prefer to use jigs? I had a 1lb 9oz perch out of the canal on a 7g spinner, but in the last month or so ive not seen one.

Are you sure that last perch escaped? I’d swear I saw the pike lick its lips!,

[@Marghi2509]

Hi, what equipment did you use? Thank you

[@Hammster_MCR]

You can still target brown trout in rivers during so called "closed season".

[@Leest0n]

Didnt it used to be anything on worm and ledger? Honestly I thought most fisheries were open in the close season these days.

[@seammcgrath9035]

When you going to them useless Snag Brothers catch a fish of his decking embarrass him lol

We usually call those Redfins but they are considered invasive where I am I could put it back in where I live so long as I don’t move it from the water where I caught it!
