MASSIVE Perch Fishing, My Best Big Redfin Fishing Trip EVER

It was a day of personal bests for me. Until this trip my biggest redfin (perch) was 44cm. On this trip I broke that record twice. The fishing gods were really shining down on me on this kayak fishing trip.

[@robhunter7236]

I've never seen a redfin much over 35cm so color me impressed :O That 47 is a Behemoth. On the subject of eating smaller Redfin, I don't much care for filleting and simply wrap them in foil, scales and all with a sprinkle of Lemon Pepper. It's no fuss to remove cooked skin with scales. If I'm cooking alone, I don't even gut them as the gut remains whole and seals itself :) I do the same with Trout.

[@robbiefishing]

That sounds great mate. Yummo.

Glad you plenty of older ones to binge while l wait for the new ones.

Thanks so much mate. That lake is absolutely beautiful. Being a small lake helps keep it classy smooth on calm days.

[@glenhehir3833]

Robbie mate. I gotta admit. I got all excited and vocal when you got got that first monster. Then did it again for the second one! Bloody ripper of a video mate and that school of reddies on the go pro was spectacular mate. Thanks for the pick me up!

Thanks so much Glen. If I was to reflect back on all of my videos, this one is right up there as one of my personal favourites. I was on a pick me up the night I filmed this I can tell you. Haha 😂😂😂

[@captainfrank01]

Wow, what a great pair of massive redfin Robbie! I used to use very small redfin as live bait for the bigger ones years ago and noticed that one of the catching lure you used was actually redfin pattern - they are definitely cannibals.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Frank, absolutely they are. I also use to use small redfin to catch larger redfin. It is a great technique.

[@coopersfishingadventures]

WOW! True monsters mate. What a great session, I don’t think you will be beating that for a while😂. Good work mate!

Hello mate ... Rob what can I say congratulations on a spectacular video... I was fortunate to catch a similar size perch on a live bait Intended for a pike many years back on the grand union canal in London.... sadly the fishing was destroyed when they built the Olympic village..the fishing never recovered... but mate when you hooked the second one I almost dropped my coffee... definitely a bloody keeper....

Excellent fishing this trip. I also did some of my best the last few days.I caught 3 rainbow trout 45 to 50 cm just over 3 lbs each and one yesterday morning at 56 cm and 5 lbs. Using chironomid flies just off bottom with float and no weight. caught them within 20 feet from shore in central BC Canada. They put up a hell of a fight.

[@pattyronni5806]

Gday Robbie, Love your content, I grew up in there and have family in Whitfeild and Cheshunt. Lake William Hovell is a beauty of a place and we also camp regularly in the area, I have to say its probably my all time favorite place in the world. I must admit though I struggle to catch fish there, I do only fish off the banks with spinners and soft plastics though. I was just there in mid June for a fish and some quiet time. Cheers

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much. I'm with you, I absolutely love it up there. It can be a very hot and miss fishery. Autumn is my favourite time to fish up there, followed by summer and winter. I catch bigger redfin up there in winter than I do in summer, and rarely catch anything in the spring time.

[@neilcondron8315]

An exceptional couple of big Redfin Robbie. The images of Lenticular clouds are amazing, thanks for the heads up. The underwater footage appeared to make the Redfin look longer and less deep...could that be the way the lens depicts them? Another great creative video from the maestro. Cheers.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Neil. I agree about the redfin. I had the camera set to superview, which is Ultra wide. That is called lens distortion which is common with wide angle lenses. If there were trees on the sides they would lean on towards the centre. Haha If I set it at a narrower depth of field I wouldn't fit as many fish in, the water would appear dirtier and the fish would likely be blurry.

[@michael-fb7ps]

That’s awesome mate not one pb for the day but two they are some truly massive red fin mate my pb was 46 for ten years I reckon and only three months about I got one 50cm that fish is getting mounted and going on the wall great under water video too mate that’s crazy watching that cheers mate I lived every bit of that

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. 50cm, WOW that is amazing. Well done..congratulations. Hopefully I can snag one like that one day. I have seen a few photos of them at 50 and 51cm, but not many. There's a lot of photos claiming to be over 50, but only a few with a measuring device in them..haha, but only a handful with proper evidence type photos.

[@michael-fb7ps]

Yeah honestly mate I thought I was snagged until it started to swim off and I’m sure you will get that 50cm one day mate one of the lakes up your way would definitely have a couple in there congratulations on the new pb mate I think you will get bigger this winter

[@sharonwylie1104]

Tell you what they did a really good job removing that tattoo on your left arm. Those Redfin are just incredible. You can’t stop thinking 🤔 about that Redfin well anyone who has watched this is also thinking about that Redfin that’s an Epic catch 🥳🥳🥳

[@darcy_corboy]

what a great catch!!! well done mate! the lake looks quite low!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Yeah it's about 60%. It's low, but I've seen it a lot lower. It's not uncommon for it to be this low at this time of the year.

[@Urbanfisho]

THAT is some of the BEST fishing I've seen you do at that lake! Those 2 big reddies WERE monsters! A RARITY these days! Amazing HOW those fish knew that camera DIDN'T belong there! Also amazing all you saw WERE red fin! No trout, & NO natives!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks UF. There's very few natives in there, but there's a lot of trout. I was hoping to film a trout in the mix but it wasn't to be. I bet the trout are much more wary of the camera than the redfin are.

[@Urbanfisho]

[@andykenins86]

Hi Robbie, saw this segment last night,with 2 nice redfin to eat, plus great footage of the underwater Reddies, luckily there wasn't a bigger red to swallow your camera. Last time i sent you reponse message regarding not just fillet these, but to just scrape the scales of them, remove the guts and then pan fried just using plain flour, some seasonall steak/ bbq spice and cook them in butter or margarine. The fins will taste similar to pork cackle, and you don't lose any wasted fish this way. I was brought up cooking this method via my grandparents over 60 years ago with all types of fish except for some salt water fishes. I remembered that you said you will try this method and have you yet. Please let me know what you think of eating fish this way. Cheers mate. Andy Kenins

[@robbiefishing]

G'day Andy, I haven't tried it yet sorry mate. I must remember to do that. I appreciate the great suggestion, but I am just so set in my ways. I have just taken a screenshot of your comment in the hope that it prompts my memory.

[@LangeysFishingAdventures]

Well done Robbie nice reddie

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. 👍👍

[@tangell481]

hi robbie great to see you into it hard

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. 👍👍

[@TeamTibbett]

Wow, a couple of donkeys there mate. I bet they would have cooked up bloody well...👍👍

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. They did. I kept the biggest one and gave the others to my old man. They were amazing to eat.

[@willandchev4251]

Always a great watch Robbie. Love WH, it's stunning, level looks low. Have you seen any carp there? Or know of anyone catching them?

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. The lake is currently 60% full. I have caught carp in there on my channel in a couple of videos. I've certainly seen plenty there.

[@willandchev4251]

@@robbiefishing in your early videos? I wonder if they stocked them in the 1960s there when the dam was built. They did in many others in the snowys etc. Very little way of them entering that lake otherwise.

[@robbiefishing]

@@willandchev4251 Yeah mate in my earlier videos. I can't remember the names of the videos, but I was bait fishing from the bank in winter. People probably took baby ones up there and used them as bait for redfin, that would be my guess.

[@matthewmcclure5218]

Robbie can you do a cooking video on them reds please ❤

[@robbiefishing]

I've already eaten these ones mate. But I hope to film another redfin catch and cook soon.

[@auzzie_skids]

Hey, mate just had a quick question, I fish two private dams that have plenty of redfin in em and i was wondering if i will still catch em in the winter months in SA. Cheers

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, winter can be a great time of the year to catch big redfin. I find that every waterway is different though. Some.fire up during winter and some shut down. Redfin are a very interesting species of fish. Every waterway fished differently.

[@Tobysfishingandtravelling]

Wow Robbie, those reddies made Noah’s first ever Redfin of 31cm look small 😂, it’s always a great night when u post, atleast the reddies are fishing well, on the Murray at Mildura it’s a complete carp fest, I’ve been fishing for 3 days straight dusk to dawn and 1 hit, also do u know what fish is in the king billabong? We tried it today and got massive bites on cheese. Love u sooooo much Robbie, keep up the great work

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks buddy. I love Kings Billabong. I caught a redfin there. Haha I know that it is stocked with Murray cod and yellowbelly, and it definitely has carp in it.

[@Tobysfishingandtravelling]

@@robbiefishing ohh sweet thanks Robbie, we weren’t actually sure if it was stocked with yellas and cod, but now I do

[@markclements7966]

Great video robbie maybe put some hooks on the gopro rope 😂

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Haha If I don't that I would probably hook a big carp and it would swim off with my GoPro. LOL 😂😂😂

[@clemmy287]

with the weighted camera, dropping some bait down with it would probably attract more fish I'd imagine

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, that is an excellent idea.

[@liampostma860]

Hey Robbie, sadly all the redfin in my local dams around Orange have been given a virus so I haven't caught one in about 3 months.

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, that really sucks. I hope you still have something to catch.

[@user-sx2dz6cz7j]

Should give the cdm bfs gear a crack Robbie!

[@Mike...01]

Do you prefer the kayak compared to being on the bank when you are on your own? Looks like fun.

[@robbiefishing]

Hi Mike, it depends on so many things. Shore based it certainly more comfortable. LOL Kayaking allows me to fish in more spots though, including out deeper.

[@brettschurgott3808]

Nice fish mate,but can ya do me a big favour. Get some dam pliers. Great vid mate most enjoyable.

[@robbiefishing]

Haha thanks mate. I use them cod fishing but never think to take them redfin fishing. I must get down to Bunnings and buy 200 pair of pliers. One for every single hiding spot that I seem to have. LOL I'm forever looking for my pliers. Haha
