A good thing to carry is a bottle of Propolis (carp care) in your bag mate. Open wounds clear up in no time. Nice Zed too Andy well done mate.
Thanks.
Great video as usual. Still think Dutch laws are weird. You are not allowed to use live bait, but you are allowed to catch a fish, kill it and put it on the line.....
its incase people move the livebaits from different waters and possibly spread disease, surley a dead fish could still do that so yeah a bit weird
@@TheoYianniFishing does make 'some' sense but like you said a dead fish can as well. Then again i dont fish with dead baits often enough to find it too bothersome.
Thanks.
Have you tried using the Korum Quickstops instead of a hair stop, I find them much easier and zero chance of them falling off 👍🏻
With this rig they wouldn't work.
🤣🤣🤣 your reaction is just great. Your one happy chap and I’m happy for ya too .. What a beautiful zander buddy. Would love to catch one .. well done 👍🏽🎣🎣
Thanks 👍
Just recently started zander fishing with live baits. Over +/- 10 sessions these are my observations.
Started with ledger, but had little success. The bites were there (around 10), but they were just small nibbles, no confident takes. In this way managed to hook only one zander. Used bleak as a bait, 30-50 g sliding weight and 40-60 cm 0.26 mm fluorocarbon leader at the end with a BKK treble hook. This was over 4 sessions.
Then decided to try float fishing. The difference was noticeable - takes were confident. Usually a small nibble at first and the float went underwater and stayed there. My observation was that you should give zander time to take the bait - if I stroke in the first 10-20 seconds, all were misses. If I give them more time and just observe the line - as soon I saw zander taking the line (I assume he was done grabbing the bait and was ready to move on), did a proper strike.
My thought is that the zander does not feel the 6 g float, so it takes the bait with confidence, but with a ledger as soon as he feels the bend of the rod, it gets suspicious and spits out the bait.
This is in an urban area with a lot of small zander (30-45 cm) that come form the Baltic sea during late summer/early autumn. So far with a float my success rate went up to around 70%. The biggest 52 cm. Not a biggie, but still I enjoy those 3-4 hour sessions in the late evenings near my home.
Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant footage mate well done 👍
Thank you.
Could this also work with a bobbin or a drop back indicator when fishing lakes or still waters?
Maybe.
Atleast if it died you had a nice meal there haha nice fish though
Smashes a pin through its head, so it's safely in the water... :')
Ok.
First time I went zander fishing the other day caught a 9lb zander with this exact rig. Check my profile picture lol
Used a tiny roach about 2-3oz
Thanks again! 🙏
Thanks for sharing your experiences and techniques with us .Since watching your videos and putting into practice the techniques you have shared your perch and barbel fishing has improved.
Great to hear.
Excellent video andrew well done love the zanda especially when we fished in Sweden great fish,para
Yeah, funny fish. Tricky to catch on the Trent.
Good vid mate. Do the boilie stops always stay in place.
Yes.
Great video. Thanks 🙏
Glad you liked it!
Awesome Andrew! Can I ask, would this rig work with small dead baits?
Yes. Just I would not attach frozen bait through the lip.
@@AndrewsKnots where would you recommend hooking them Andrew please?

Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks.
That's what I talk about! Splendid fish, really happy for ya, made me smile, thanks Andrew😅
Thanks 👍
Gorgeous fish Lovely
Yes, thanks.
Did you say you were on the trent? Is it a day ticket stretch? Looking to do more exploring for Zander
Won't disclose the location more than it was done in the video. Sorry.
I have 3 years in zander fishing, and all I have to say: you're giving good tips, definietely can catch zander with these techniques and gear. I do two things differently - using mono line (0.28 in diameter, we have big catfish here), and using a classic circlet bite indicator. I'm using carp rods just like you, longer spinning rods are good too, as long as they're fast action rods.
