Join us in this episode as we head to the canal for a bit of lure fishing with the ultralight rods. We catch various species like perch, rudd, and our first ever bream caught on a lure.

LRF Fishing - Ilfracombe Pier
Переглядів 2,2 тис.Рік тому
As the waters start to warm up we thought we would travel to Ilfracombe Pier for some LRF fishing and attempt to lure some mini species. We used a mixture of lures and baits and different rigs on the day to find what the fish wanted. It wasn't easy with strong winds but we managed a few bites from some very interesting small species. We hope you enjoy.
Lure Fishing With A Dropshot Rig
Переглядів 825Рік тому
Well, I headed to the canal with high hopes of catching some nice perch. With the conditions against me, I decided that the best rig would be the dropshot rig with a luminous micro spikey shad lure. I felt that the lure would have the most chance of standing out in the coloured water, and the dropshot rig would allow me to work the lure slowly at different depths. Hope you all enjoy.

Lure Fishing On The Canal For Perch And Pike

Out on the canal targeting perch with the lures. This was a hard session but we managed to get a couple of perch and a pike. Also bumped into a fine specimen of a bull. The canal was pretty coloured and the bright conditions were against us. Although the fishing was a bit slow it was a good day and great fun on the light tackle. Cannot beat a stroll along the canal 👍

wow i will try so fish at this canal i sometime paddle board on it so i will make sure to visit it :)
You went through from the wrong side of hook.
@TK-cl1jm noticed a couple of people saying this, but I don't understand what difference it would make. I have done it this way for years and years 🤷♂️
@@UltralightLads The hook is upside down if you go through that side.
@TK-cl1jm but surely that depends on what end of your drop shot rig you connect to your mainline? You can flip the rig anyway you wish if it's not already tied. Or am I not understanding what you mean?
@UltralightLads Usually people are tying hook on a leader that is already attached to the mainline. If you are starting with just a piece of leader, I guess it doesn't matter. I have never seen someone tie a hook to a leader before attaching leader to main line.
Love the content boys 🫡 keep it coming
Good catch
Sorry to bother you, for the Z-man crawz do you prefer the more natural colours please? Thankyou
Yes, my go to colours for the Zman crawz are green pumpkin and the deal. They seem to work in both bright and dull conditions 👍🏻
@@UltralightLads Brilliant Thankyou so much, really appreciate the information. New to lure fishing and totally blown away by the amount of different colours of lures. Once more Thankyou.
@phils_adventures_outdoors no problem at all. Best of luck, and if you need anything else, then feel free to ask 👍
great video - wow thanks for posting
What a day in wish I was there
Sorry to bother you, new to lure fishing and finding all the choice of lures confusing. What is the make of the Creature baits you are using please?
Thanks
THAT! is how you make an instructional Knot tying Video-💯 Many thanks ill use this as this way of fishing is new to me
Thank you for your comment. Glad you liked the video and found it useful 👍
You using hto rods there ?
It happened to me today. I threw a sof plastic jigtail and let it fall deep down so I can catch a zander. A big tench came down and ate it, he thought it was a worm or something i think.
too much sniffing.
Awesome bit of fishing a super interesting love all the different species. Did you take the squid for eating?
Cheers 👍 Glad you enjoyed the video. Its amazing how many different species are right at your feet on these piers. I cannot actually remember if we did take the squid home, I can't see us turning down a bit of calamari 😋
just found your channel, great fishing. I've starting lake and canal fishing with my son in wales recently and loving it, only pike so far. What hooks are you using with those frogs ? i'm still pretty new to it.
It's best to use a 2/0 EWG style hook with the finesse frogz. Great to hear that you have both recently got into the sport. Pike certainly put up a good scrap 👍.
Good to see the UL lads out again - and what a great catch!
Thanks mate! It's not been through lack of trying. We've been but decided you guys probably didn't want to just hear us chatting litter all day and not catching fish so decided to wait until we had something solid! Hope you're good! 😊
The Lads are back! Well done boys.
Sorry mate! We appreciate its been a while but with rubbish conditions and less than spectacular fishing its been a bit of a struggle. How's things your end?
@@UltralightLads Similar. Wet Spring made for a tough bite. I've been getting into the Saltwater bite as well this year. Chasing Striped Bass and Bluefish to counter all the Ultralight creek fishing.
@@jboulderct lovely job! How's the striper fishing been? Any😊 monsters?
@@UltralightLads Slow start and no monsters, but I've gotten a few so far. My PB is 19 pounds and 36" so far, but hoping to upgrade that soon. 🤞
@@jboulderct you'll smash that mate. It's still a very respectable fish mind. One day we will have the opportunity to come out and try our hand at them I'm sure!
nice video, pity you cannot read. large sign on ground do not fish past this line
Bent butts while standing???? Back breaker for sure!
Nothing wrong with stand up using bent butt rods especially if the fish goes deep.
Warming up soon Lads! Hope to see you out on the canals and rivers soon. 👍
Great video, but I think the finishing hook position is upside down, no?
Yeah, the video is wrong line should go in the eye on the same side as the hook point.
What was the little one with the teeth called?
Thanks for subscribing. It is very much appreciated 👍. The LRF style of fishing becomes so addictive. It's amazing how many different species live right at our feet along harbour walls and in rock pools etc. Using light rods and a light line can make it feel like you've hooked into a double figure fish. So that little fish with the teeth is a type of Wrasse called a Goldshinny.
At first I thought,Why? But seeing the beautiful variety of colourful little fish, I began to understand. Nice one, Cheers lads. Liked and subbed.
Loving all the vids bud, random one, have you got a link for your gloves, all the ones I've managed to find are either baggy on the fingers or covered in words like "SPORT" in big bold white writing, yours seem far more discreet 👍🏻
Thanks mate. Yeah they're nice gloves and the most comfy I've found so far. You should be able to get them at the following link.. www.anglingdirect.co.uk/spro-freestyle-fingerless-gloves
It is also worth noting that despite the trend in lure fishing of holding perch by their mouth, this is one of the DO NOTs in fish safety. The jaws on perch are quite soft, so if you hold it by the mouth and it kicks or flips, it can easily damage the fish and dislocate or break the jawbones.
You strike and your drag goes? Maybe that's why you missed the fish. Drag set to just below line breaking strength helps let the rod tke the strain 😊 you can loosen the drag when the fish fights harder
Yeah that could well have been it. We tend to fish very light so I wouldn't risk having the drag set too tight but it probably should have been done up a few clicks!
Well done....
Cheers... it was a slow session to be honest but got there in the end!
Nice one mate! I'll deffo give them a try! Enjoy your fishing!
Cheers. Definitely worth a go 👍
Do you have to stick your thumb in the mouth? They are not USA bass that are killed after capture.
While we completely agree that perch shouldn't be hung from their jaws please take note that while we do lip grip them the body is always fully supported with the other hand so as to not cause any damage to the fish. We like to look after our local perch so we do all we can to make sure they go back in tip top condition.
I’ve done a lot of fishing for bass in the USA in the past 20 years and most bass are returned alive as catch and release is very popular there now. I asked a pro guide on my first ever trip there why they hold them by the lip. He pointed out how strong the lip is. If you have ever handled a largemouth bass the lip is formidable. He then added that😮 they really do not want to disturb the slime coat by handling. This was also why in some states or tournaments they don’t use nets to avoid slime rub. In the Major League Fishing events they impose time penalties for any fish handling infringements. These include a fish brushing anglers clothing or the boat deck. They also have catch, weigh and release so no fish are retained. Of course they use the boga grip type scales so the lip is the only part that should come into contact with the angler or the scales. If the fish is really big they will lip grip and hold it horizontally for a photo with the minimal contact from the supporting hand but the weight is supported. In My experience lip grips do exercise more control but like all fish handling needs to be done with care and consideration. Certainly if one were to swing a fish round by the lip recklessly then something is probably ku going to go wrong just as if someone is gripping a fish far too hard around the soft tissue for pic, or let it clip and hit something. I’m not saying one way is right or another just that there is more to these practices than can first meet the eye.
@@jameswigglesworth5406 There's no need for it. You didn't stick a thumb in the tench you caught.
Nicely done chaps 👏 makes me want to get back to the canal! 🎣
Yeah we were saying that mate. We hadn't been up for a while but the weather killed it really! Will give you a shout ans get something in the diary!
Love the stuff from Zman. Glad to see you lads still crackin' on. I've been to busy for fishing lately, so I will live vicariously through you!
Got to love a Zman lure! They work great and seem to last forever. Weather has been awful over here, it's been fairly difficult trying to get out. Water is very coloured at the moment but we're still plugging away mate :)
Definitely a new learning curve trying bfs for the first time, touch wood haven’t had many bad back lashes , had a 7 lb 9 ounce pike on my bfs kit , 5 gram casting weight rod , never seen a rod bend like it did on that fish , caught it on a 2 gram chub rig , nimble crayfish, 2 . 5 inch
I was in the same boat as you, this was my first ever baitcaster, pure coincidence i bought the Dark Wolf Ultra as well. The Ginger Fisherman also bought one. I used 10lb braid, a 5g jighead and didn't have any big backlashes but ive still to catch a fish. Great stuff! 👍
Really glad that I stuck with it. Still get the odd backlash but that's mainly from my lure accidently hitting the side of a wall etc. I want to try and learn a few different casting techniques if I can. Sure you'll get one to bite soon 👍
Nice video and some great fish… I don’t suppose you remember what rods the charter boat was using?
That's a great question! I'm pretty certain it was a Shimano but I can't guarantee it. The company I went with were called Sight Casting Madiera and they're pretty active on Facebook etc shayne drop them a message and they'll let you know.
Hi Lads. Just curious which backpack you using at 08:16?
Hi Adam. Its a K&F Concept camera bag that I purchased a few years ago from Amazon. Can't seem to find the exact one but they do have similar on there 👍
@@UltralightLads Thanks I'll check em out.
Haven't been able to get out myself much since July, glad to see you lads out again. Cheers!
Cheers mate. Yes we have not been able to get out as much as we'd like. Although with winter fast approaching we will be aiming to seek out those larger perch this year. Hope you manage to get a session in soon 🎣
Hi chap. Ive got a rib at plymouth and always wanted to see these tuna jumping. Ive been out to the eddystone lighthouse several times and seen dolphins but no tuna. Did you have to go along way out to sea to find them (past the lighthouse)? Any tips where to see these majestic beasts jumping?
Beautiful video! I am just getting started on the micros too. Love and respect from the Great Plains USA.
Thanks, much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video and best of luck with your micro venture 👍
nice video lads, cant moan with a few good perch!
Cheers 👍🏻. Can't beat a nice perch can you.
Good video chaps. Second day looked a really nice day out.
Cheers, glad you enjoyed it 👍. On that day, it was about 25°C. When it's like that, everything seems to come to life on the canal, which is great to see.
Nice Perch, 👏 do enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing. Tight lines 🎣🎣
Glad you're enjoying the videos 👍. We've been finding quite a few wasps this summer, which is fairly rare for this stretch, so it was nice to catch a bit of a chunkier one. Tight lines mate! 🎣
Great session. I see you're enjoying that Dark Wolf reel - am myself new to BFS and am watching everything BFS at the moment. Love the craw baits you're using too. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers! 👍 When it comes to fishing the canal, the bait caster is now my first choice. I never thought that would be the case, but I'm really enjoying using it. I still get the odd backlash, but it's mainly when I cast my lure into a wall or a bridge 🙄. Hope you're enjoying BFS. Yes, perch seem to love the creature baits. The 1.5" micro crayfish in Junebug colour seems to be their favourite.
Hi. Sorry to trouble you. I notice you fish taunton end of canal. Is there any reason you dont fish bridgewater end.?
We've invested a fair amount of time walking up and down this stretch, figuring out where the fish mostly hold up. We're yet to find that 3lb perch, and we know they're there, so we decided to wait and tick this off the list before we move on and purchase another ticket 👍🎣.
Nice sesh lads. I was up there today. Never seen it so alive! When was this video fished? I ended up with 7 species and my first ever Tench. Mini thing but still buzzing. You need to go further up and try for Carp. Had a missed bite from one earlier while it sucked off the reeds.
Nice one lads, grub looked good, great job 😎👍
Cheers, much appreciated mate 👍
