BIG PERCH FISHING - THE NED RIG UK 4LB+ ON LURES

[@marklamude2355]

Amazing angling, your best weapon in your arsenal is your effort!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Mark Lamude Thank you mate. 100%. Grit and determination really counts, especially when things get tough. 👍🎣

[@marklamude2355]

Life on the bank skills as well obviously lol

[@henrybennett6432]

Thanks for showing what really goes into catching special fish. The grim reality of the resilience it requires is often brushed aside for highlights, but this made the capture all the more special. Top work!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Henry Bennett Thanks. Wanted to keep it real. Was a bit worried that the blanking bits of the video would be boring but I think it gives the capture some context. I often see my fellow anglers putting loads of effort into their fishing, so they will know where I’m coming from. I hope it’s watched by someone that’s got a goal, but is going through a tough spell and it motivates them to dig their heels in and catch a fish of a lifetime. That would be perfect :)

[@henrybennett6432]

@@Lifeonthebank hit the nail on the head. Less of a tough patch with not catching, more not being able to fish at all! A gap in the storms will come soon and then it's back to the river. Can't wait.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Definitely toughest perch season I’ve had, constantly battling the floods to get on the river!!! Good luck when you do eventually get out! 👍

[@patriciasteele9530]

Getting so hyped for the new perch masters I'm rewatching all the old perch videos, one thing I have noticed is how amazing you are at editing, 👌👌👍✌️

[@FanterFishing]

That fish is the one that we all dream about the night before a fishing session Nick, well done. Your videos are really good , editing is spot on 👍👍

[@Lifeonthebank]

Fanter Fishing thank you mate. Just love these creatures, the graft and the chase. 🙏🙏🙏👍🎣👌

[@domsalmon3265]

As a very inexperienced fisherman when it comes to lure fishing I trawled through KZbin to find a good tips and tricks video to help me catch more often and stumbled across this “Lure Rig Setup Series” and it’s helped tremendously. Easily the best produced and edited videos containing by far the most useful information. Very obvious to see how much effort you put into making these videos so thank you very much for taking the time to explain your methods. Good luck with the channel growth and I’m looking forward to more Perch action!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Thanks for taking the time to write such kind comments. I’m glad the info is usual. The rivers open next week and I hope these tips bag you some whacking great perch!!! I love doing the videos. Thanks for watching them! 👍🎣

[@dave420uk]

Amazing perch that. I haven't fished since I was a kid now 45 and have took it up again this year. I am loving the vids and learning everything I now know on you tube and learning alot for ur vids cheers .

[@martinlawrence8427]

Superb fish, well deserved. Thanks for the heads up on the rig!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Good luck in your fishing mate 👏👏👏

[@ezedjay]

Nice Perch there Nick :) That was HUGE! One thing I'd recommend to everyone - when it's time for slow retrieves is slow down even more. Your slow retrieve is faster than my quick retrieve....and since slowing down I've upped my hit rates by....a lot. I now retrieve so slowly I can feel the Perch chugging the lure down in a few moves while I'm still reeling - and when it starts to feel like a snag - just lift quickly and reel faster instead of striking. Try it - if you don't get more fish I'll eat my hat :)

[@Lifeonthebank]

ezedjay I totally agree. When I watch it back I’m actually going faster than I think I am at the time. Not sure if it’s because I’m talking as I always have to concentrate on slowing myself down. It’s almost impossible to go too slow with this style of lure fishing. Thanks for the comment! 👍🎣

[@cornettojordgubb]

ezedjay A bit late to the comments but, when IS the time for a slow retrieve? And do you guys have any tips on how to maintain a slow retrieve? Im sure many of us subconciously start reeling faster when getting impatient...

[@ezedjay]

​@UCb8NZ7ZxZS4KRFq0SI-WDxg Hard to say when the right time is - you can usually figure out quite quickly what speed of retrieve is working best on any given day by varying between fast/medium/slow plus straight retrieve or retrieve with pauses or even bouncing the bottom. With Perch, maintaining a slow retrieve is quite easy and doesn't have to be too precise but my advice may be called out as bad advice by many. I hold the rod tip up high at a bit more than 45 degrees which seems to make it easier to retrieve slowly without dragging along the bottom than with the rod pointed at the lure. Probably because I'm constantly reeling it "up" rather than "in" with the rod tip lifted high so the lure is almost swinging back in like a pendulum that's getting slowly shorter. Bites often feel like weed with the rod slowly bending around - which I've found just reeling into and not stopping reeling hooks up well. Having said all that though - sometimes just dragging anything along the bottom works too. I suppose the best advice(and people have thanked me for this in the past) - is just try and see how slowly you can retrieve the lure. I've seen so many people casting out and ripping the lures back in - and then when they slow right down they start getting more hits. I've also found that on days were they will chase fast moving lures they will also take slow moving ones. Not the opposite though - if it's a day where they prefer slow retrieves it's basically pointless doing fast retrieves. All this of course is just my opinion and experiences during 40 years of fishing so please take it with a pinch of salt and just experiment - the worst thing is trying to stick to some kind of rule or method in lure fishing without changing it up and trying something different. Lure fishing is all about exploration of both the water and what is triggering the fish. There's no rules(apart from make sure you are ready to hook Pike and land them safely when you're Perch fishing - too many people fish in waters with Pike and don't use traces for example). Oh - and use barbless hooks. Again - just my opinion. I've never had any problems with barbless hooks - people seem to think they fall out but I can't say I've ever noticed that happening.

[@stephenholland132]

Yeah I tend to take my time reeling them in, sometimes just gently tapping the rod butt to make them wiggle but not move along the bottom. Only used them on canals so far, but will try them on the Severn this winter.

[@cornettojordgubb]

@@ezedjay thanks so much for your detailes response! I will absolutely try what you have suggested.

[@GodofThunder1919]

What a fish fella! Love the fact you showed all the hard work and blanks!

[@Lifeonthebank]

Yeah, it ain’t all plain sailing. This little campaign did take a bit of graft. Makes the reward sweeter 😉👍

[@mark_kellett_angling95742]

This is still my favourite video. The grit and determination you had to get back out there and beleive in the method was amazing. I've had some lovely perch over 3lb+ following this video. Kept me going when time was hard. Effort equals reward. Cheers Nick 🍻

Cracking fish, by the tone in your voice and the shaking hands (had to laugh, been there can't stop yourself) when you first lifted it, I think you felt it could be a new PB, congrats.

[@benprice3719]

Great catch. I saw you were doing some back reeling around 21:10. I've seen a few experienced anglers doing that on YT. I'd still love to see a video sharing tips like that about how to play a large fish.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Ben Price Thanks! I’m a little unusual in that I use a bit of backwind and a bit of drag. In some situations I just use drag (big fish caught in the edge has to be drag as they take off so fast!) Not sure if there’s a right or wrong way ... you’ve just got to understand the limits of your tackle and give the fish line when it needs it. Thanks for watching the video and for the comment!!!! 👍🎣

[@stuartduke999]

Wow ! Just wow ! What a monster perch at the end after all that hard work . I am definitely trying that out !

Been watching all your perch vids ready to tackle up again after years away. Really enjoy your videos; really well put together. And heck! - the results!!

[@lenraby5920]

Great video and great fish Nick. I’ve been fishing the Ned a few years now and all love it, a four season bait for sure. I travel light with just a few packs of Ned’s and some 5-7cm cranks (Westin) it’s the best way to fish. Lure fishing is like fly fishing in the sense of its all too easy to carry too many options, reduce the options and learn to work the baits.

[@Lifeonthebank]

I tend to use them more as it gets really cold. It’s interesting to hear that you’re using them right through the seasons. Maybe I should reach for them earlier in the year too. 👍

[@e.1228]

Love the back reeling technique 👍 Didn't realize they got that big.

[@robbiefishing]

Awesome. I love bright coloured soft plastics for redfin. (Perch).

[@Lifeonthebank]

robbiefishing what’s your favourite colour?

[@nickb7369]

Really enjoy your videos, loads of quality information! Would love to see more on lure fishing canals and rivers. Sometimes I do really well, other days I blank, it would be good to understand influences like weather, water clarity, dealing with weed, areas to target, when to go fast or slow etc. etc.

[@Lifeonthebank]

All fantastic suggestions for topics to cover, thanks! I tend to only lure fish for perch and pike in late autumn and winter. I’ll be doing some chub fishing soon with Crankbaits! Thanks for watching 👍🎣

[@stephenholland132]

Great video thanks. I use the Bubblegut ned worm. Had some good fish out of the local canal. Always fish evenings just into dark.

[@toro8219]

Great Perch, agree the Ned is fantastic in Winter. Usually out-fished by other lures in summer. You want to watch the light Fluro leader, I’ve caught plenty of pike on the ned. They often hit it on the drop. Eventually fluro will get bitten through, to the detriment of the fish.

Woah... what a stunning Perch. I stopped fishing for years because of being too busy with my self employed work. We cleared the mortgage last year, so this year (about a month ago) I promised myself I would designate a day a week to go fishing and bugger me this whole covid thing kicked off and that's that knocked on the head again... Dammit !! Never caught a decent Perch before, so this vid has inspired me. Hopefully I'll get back on the bank soon... but who knows...

Fantastic mate 👏👏👏 The Ned can be so effective, especially to pick them off once you’ve found them! Well done mate 😉👍

[@leftmono1016]

Life on the bank - thanks fella 😀 Been out a few times since and getting really hooked (sorry) on the ned. Only problem I had was hooking a 4-5lb pike on one of the Zman Crawz, wasn't expecting pike so didn't have a wire trace. What's your take on using thicker flouro when pike are about? I've only used wire traces when throwing lures for pike.

Christopher Doane 👍👍 Thanks for watching 👍🎣

Quality video many thanks. Can I ask what size swivel and clip you use to connect the hook? Cheers

[@Lifeonthebank]

Hi, tbh since making this video I’ve stopped using clips. I just don’t like anything unnecessary to be on the line.

Hi , just started following and great vids pal. I was just wondering what style and length that rod is ? It’s not a bfs set up is it , so just a ledger rod ? Only asking as I’m getting on the rivers . But great viewing.

[@Lifeonthebank]

Hi thanks for watching the video and for the nice comments :) I use several rods in the video and they are all light lure rods. - Sonik LRF Rockchamp, 7ft 1g-8g - Savage Gear MPP2, 8ft 3g--14g - MTP Super Nova Zander Finder, 7ft 5-18g I've actually done a recent review of the MTP and here's the link below (that's the one with the cork handle that I had the big perch on at the end of the video): kzbin.info/www/bejne/hX7PoIFuesyYd7s&t I hope that helps! Thanks again for watching.

Great video. Can’t find these Ned rig jig heads around here in Belgium. Could you fish a round jig head or does anybody have a trick to change the round jig head into a Ned rig jig head ? Thx
