Perch - Autumn bites

[@fishingtailfilms]

Excellent film

[@artificialflight1942]

Thanks matey, yours ain't too shabby either! Lovely roach you had.

[@chefinwood]

Thank you for doing these type fishing videos. Capturing the more gentle, poetic side of nature.

[@artificialflight1942]

We think that's what it's all about, in these ever more stressful times, too William. Thank you for your interest

[@chrisfoster5098]

Another great video. Thank you

[@artificialflight1942]

You're working your way through them, Chris! Much appreciated

[@hounddogjonny]

What a lovely video. Full of nature but also showing exactly the techniques you have used with the sketches etc I especially enjoyed how you combined underwater canal footage which isn't something you see often. As I have taken up canal match fishing once again I found this particularly informative for thinking about how my perch/worm rigs are working and what the fish are actually doing down there. Thankyou

[@artificialflight1942]

I must admit, Jonny, underwater filming has been such an eye-opener. It's nothing like we imagined it would be, in terms of fish behaviour. Thanks for watching.

[@justanotherangler6117]

Absolutely what a fishing video should be. Perfect. Thank you.

[@artificialflight1942]

Thank you, JAA. We're always pleased to hear people enjoy them. Tight lines

[@wonkylommiter6364]

I like the 'Shell-suited Imposters' and criminal Krays description of the troublesome Signal Crayfish :-) They are good bait for Perch I've heard. Some nice Sloes behind that Kingfisher, another Autumn bonus for steeping in Gin for a couple of months. as always, a beautifully made film that I will watch a few times more, like all of yours, Many Thanks and all the best to you!

[@artificialflight1942]

Thank you for your observations and kind words

[@johnshaw5816]

Very generous words indeed, Sir! Thank you so much. It is very much a team effort between Eric and myself

[@PESCUITSPORTIVcuMike]

Oh my gosh dear friend, I can watch you and listen to you forever, you are absolutely amazing angler 👍👍👍

[@artificialflight1942]

You're too kind Mike but we're very pleased you liked the video

[@matthewharding6245]

I've just found your channel and wanted to say what lovely films you have produced. It's made me even more keen than usual to get out on the banks and tempt some autumn Chub and Perch.

[@artificialflight1942]

Thanks for the message Matthew. It's always pleasing to hear that we've generated some inspiration! Good luck on the bank

[@MidlandAngler]

Another absolute gem ... you manage to capture so much in every detail George . Your videos are on a different level in my opinion they truly inspire me . Thank you

[@artificialflight1942]

You're fast becoming a groupie, Baz! Seriously though, we really do appreciate your positive comments. It's very much a partnership with Eric, whose input on ideas, filming and editing is both indispensable and immeasurable.

[@MidlandAngler]

@@artificialflight1942 thank you Eric also . I simply speak as I find on all things in life (unfortunately ☺️) and the style of your videos really enthuses me . I can relate to all of the angling you do and not just that I fish some of the areas myself .

[@peteredwards1528]

I really miss the artificial-lite journal that you wrote for many years Eric. I was an occasional, pretty uninspired if truth be told, canal angler back in the day. However reading the artificial-lite journal ignited a real passion in me for ultralight canal lure fishing. A passion that remains within me even though I am 60 next year. We don't have zander in the North West canals where I fish, however the methods I learned from artificial-lite allow me to target other species beyond the usual perch and pike, such as roach, bream and rudd, which I've all caught on lures thanks to the methods I learned after reading the artificial-lite journal. I hope I find you well Eric, many thanks

[@mynature110]

Great to see a new episode George. Interesting new slants too and some tidy fish too. Been hopefully looking forward to another video, and plenty more I hope. Thanks. Nige

Very kind Nige. Yes, I'm sure there'll be more, when we're allowed out again.

Such comments encourage us to do so, Steve, and as soon as we're allowed out I'm sure we'll be out pursuing more ideas!

[@georgs5870]

Brilliant video, thanks for sharing! The sketches are great as „interludes”.

Ah yes! There used to interludes on TV (just before my time tbh) but I recall seeing on played back of a Potter at work. Thanks for the comment

Not too many years, we hope! Thanks for taking the time to comment, we do appreciate it

[@jangojango4823]

I’ve been watching all your films again recently gents and still there is nothing on KZbin that surpasses the content in epitomising the true spirit of angling.- absolutely brilliant! Are there any more productions in the pipeline?. .

[@artificialflight1942]

Hi JJ, Thanks for viewing them again. You must have a very strong constitution 😉! Yes, we have a project underway. Just need some suitable weather now.

[@davidhaddon2854]

Nice one, its been ages since you put a new vid on , worth the wait . All the best David.

[@artificialflight1942]

It was indeed a long time! Sadly with the limitations of Covid, and life in general, plus the way we like to present things, it's been quite a challenge to get one done at all 😊. Thanks for your ongoing support David.

[@paulharris6886]

Nearly as good as being on the bank myself! My kind of fishing 👏

[@artificialflight1942]

It's good to hear it hit the spot for you Thanks for your comment

[@chrismatthews1311]

I always look forward to your videos, well put together and a joy to watch. Have you lost your centre pin? 😂 Please keep them coming, I’m already looking forward to the next one.

[@artificialflight1942]

Again, thank you for your kind comments, Chris. We just enjoy variety tbh and rarely fish the same way two trips running, hence the centre-pin was on another rod at the time

[@lawriebell952]

What a brilliant video, you make it how fishing should be relaxing and enjoyable Just like the late Jack Hargreaves did. 👍

[@artificialflight1942]

Praise indeed Lawrie. Thank you so much.

[@jangojango4823]

Well done chaps, another great watch. The filming and narration is exceptional as always and once again you guys have perfectly captured the true spirit of fishing. A quick question if I may;, what’s your reasoning for using the foam type pellet wagglers rather than more sensitive floats - presumable to enable big worm baits to be presented off bottom/suspended? Anyway, please keep them coming fellas,, by far the best angling films on KZbin..👏

[@artificialflight1942]

Thanks for your kind words again JJ. Yes you got it, it's the equivalent of the old perch bob. We don't want the float to instantly disappear. The perch won't let go but you can judge when to strike much better and, yes, it's a big bait, so there's little point using a fine float as it wouldn't have the necessary buoyancy.

[@darrenharvey134]

Not seen you for 7 months hope all is ok Excellent videos

[@artificialflight1942]

Thanks for the message Darren. Yes all well, but we've both been unable to do any filming for various reasons. It is still on our agenda though!

[@deanhancox8926]

Loving your films and still not sure why we're no longer in contact. I'm doing OK on the rivers

[@artificialflight1942]

I know, weird how times change and things move on! I followed your progress at Evesham this year btw. Nice job to qualify there!

[@themagicoffishing]

Hello George. I can’t find another way to contact you, but hope you might see this comment and, if still involved with KZbin, honour me with a reply… I’ve loved watching your content from a few years ago and I’m simply wondering why it began and finished so swiftly? As a busy father, husband, bread winner, one-time author and relatively new content creator, I understand the barriers to ongoing creativity all too well, but I hope you’re in good health and may revisit your channel at some point in the future. Tight lines and all the best, John

[@artificialflight1942]

Thanks for getting in touch, John. The reason simply is that, initially covid, and then personal circumstances got the better of Eric and I. We do however have a new film under prep, again taking longer than it should, largely due to my technical incompetence, but hopefully you'll find that one to your liking in due course. All the best with your own venture too! George.
