Clearly different but also similar to what I catch called a Walleye. Even the technique in which you're hooking up is so similar. Never seen a Zander before. Great video.
Nice to watch you guys how you treat and handle zander. It is I'd say the no. 1 sport fish in Hungary but I believe in Europe too. We have catfish, asp, pike, chub and perch also but zander is something else. ;) Best times are at dusk and night with top water lures like Rapala ssr. I remember we were catching at night next to a campfire on dead baits in the river. It's surprising that they are living in canals here, as we known they prefers clean waters. Great video anyway, you guys always make me laugh! 😁🤣
Pause at 19:12 and look at the Flash under the Water. Then at 19:13 there Is another one. Nice catches. Some sit all day and sometimes Night, for Zander and lucky to catch One.
For me I find the Zander round here are pretty nomadic. But i find overcast days pretty good. Also don't use lures that are too big. Try dropping it down the side where there is any deviation from the bank such as vegetation over hanging/in the water or shady water under bridges etc. That's worked for me Tight lines.
Well fished.Cool video as always! I love that junction,always full of zander. Also a good 70cm+ pike,probably resposible for the tail damage of the zander. After the junction if you go uphill/upstream, passed by the mooring, you can find some really good perch.
Great vibes boys. Just come across your channel as I’m looking at trying some lure fishing. Mostly stick to my carping but this looks mega. I’ll be picking up one of them nets. Look forward to more vids. Cheers J
@@SnaggedBro there's plenty of lochs and also places for fly fishing. I used to go pike fishing every weekend. Dead baits and 3 rods and alarms. Got sick of carrying it about. Loch awe, Loch lomond venachar etc. You are lucky with drains can rod hop fishing them.
Great to see you two giving it large, it's been a while guy's. New kit lad's? those rod's look new & cool and a new landing net also new reel's by the look of thing's. The rod's & landing net are out of stock, I wonder if your subscribers have had em all! but that reel, HOW much :o
@@SnaggedBro oh yea so i went to an urban spot on the tees targeting perch on a tiny spinner and caught my first pike, it was only small but was absolutely over the moon, just caught on my sons 7ft shakepeare rod and reel with that shite line that comes with it haha. what braided line would you recommend starting out with for predator fishing? also is wire trace recommended or will thick flourocarbon be fine?
Did you ever get the Vid done as to why it OK to return Zander ? As a "fishery owner" it looks pretty clear to me that it is a legal requirement to remove Zander from the Canal network, it says so on the the Canal and Rivers Trust web site ? "As the law stands, it is illegal to return a zander or any other non-native fish species to the canal network. This is set out in the terms and conditions of our KIFR permits"
Another nice video lads as a newbie I’m just working my way through your back videos but I thought it was illegal to return Zander to the water after catching, as the Zander were illegally introduced into several fisheries and are a none native fish.
Hi mate. Between braid and lure is 9lb fluro carbon leader 👌🏼 which is ideal for the Perch and Zander. However a wire trace would be much more sufficient were we to target Pike 👌🏼 thanks for watching
**new subscriber alert** just came across your channel watched this video and now really want to get out and try lure fishing keep it up guys brilliant work
Lovely video gents! As someone else noticed, the hook could do with a bit more show outside the lure. On top of that, Zanders have hard and dense mouthes. You might have lost a few because you don't really set the hook, you only lift the rod a bit. Apart from those things, a very enjoyably video, well done!
Nice Video Guys / Good to see u back at it one quick question tho when fishing for perch and zander and ocassional jack pike do you use wire trace or flurocarbon trace ???? Been waiting for you to make a video ahhhhhhh :\
I thought the law in the uk required all Zander caught to be killed?
We are currently doing a video that will clarify this for all anglers. Stay tuned!
Why kill Zander? Here in the Netherlands they are a well respected fish and always returned. The occasional one may be taken for consumption.
@@barrytaylor9307 As well as in Canada! Top notch fish to eat!

Thanks man appreciate it. I'm sure they'll get there at some pointN
Hey Guys, love your videos ... I'll be heading out on the Coventry Canal, you've ever fished there and can give tips and recommendations?
For me I find the Zander round here are pretty nomadic. But i find overcast days pretty good. Also don't use lures that are too big. Try dropping it down the side where there is any deviation from the bank such as vegetation over hanging/in the water or shady water under bridges etc. That's worked for me Tight lines.
@@alexp831 Thanks Mate, appreciate it
I fish the Ashby which is connected to cov canal. I find the smaller lures, 8cm and less to be most productive.
That’s baa right
Love the intro 😂 good video guys 👍🏻
Cheers dude!
The intro brilliant,👏 good to see you out 🤜
Cheers mate! Glad you enjoyed it!
Chuckle brothers of fishing 🤛👌👍gg guys
Haha to me to you! Leg ends
Superb video mates.

Thanks mate, yeah we've had some perch from there. Decent place!
Where abouts is it looks familiar just can't put my finger on where they are
For real I thought I was the only person who says “wastecadet” 😂😂😂😅 not a fully grown waste man a waste man in training 😂😂
😂😂 😂😂 jokes

Thanks for watching Jacob! Good luck with the predator fishing!
first time that I have seen one of your vids. Really enjoyed it, Now subscribed !
Thanks mate! Appreciate it
Where was you fishing lads? I'm on the border of Birmingham and Walsall, so plenty of canal up here....plenty of trollies too :)
Round the corner my friend! 👊🏼
Nice fish there mate iv had a lot of fish. But neva had a zander thats next on my list 👍keep up the good videos :)

Nice to see you back !
Thanks dude!
9:15... "bom bom.bum" technique. 😂 love it.
😂 👊🏼
Well done on the Grand Slam Ed 👍
Thanks Matty lad 👊🏼
He didn't win because he said Zander and Perch. His 4th fish was a pike. So, 3-3 it was.
Thank you very much.
Very light stroke for zander fishing :) Normally everyone recomend stiff rods and hard stroke for them :)
👌👌👊 we need to go Zander fishing again!
stop stealin my bite thunder hahaha genius🤣🙈
True though isn't it?
@@SnaggedBro hahaha yeah it kinda is 😅🙈
good to c u both again...alive lol. good days fishing id say!
Oh yeah! Thanks dude!
Nice video bro 💪🎣🎣🎣
Thanks dude!
Drayton Manor strech have sum lumps of zander and pike in but coventry canal system my favourite
We also like that system! 👊🏼
Gotta love that unique brummie accent 🤣🤣🤣
Why thanks you!
Finding Zander can be so hit and miss on the canels but they shoal so if you hit into one then always stick that area
What about the canals?
@@ronwhite8503 🥸
Subscribed after watching this. Wish there was canals and drains where I am in Scotland.
What about lochs tho???? We plan on coming up there at some point and fishing some!

Cheers! Appreciate it
Good to see you both back boys 👍🎣👏 Best fishing channel on UA-cam 👍😂👍 what size lures do you use most on local canals boys ???
Anything from like 4cm all the way up to 30+ Pike will take some surprisingly big baits. 👊🏼
Good video mates! I follow you from Portugal
Nice one Ricardo!
Love watching you guys love from dudley area x
Cheers ar kid 👊🏼
Great to see you two giving it large, it's been a while guy's.
New kit lad's? those rod's look new & cool and a new landing net also new reel's by the look of thing's.
The rod's & landing net are out of stock, I wonder if your subscribers have had em all! but that reel, HOW much :o
I know. They are sooo good though! Best set up I've ever had. And those reels are crazy good!
Nice one lads great stuff went out today and had 7 pike and 1 big perch around half a pound 👌👌
Niceeee!
Snagged Bro yea bro all on mepps comet size 3 mepps are king!!
Good video lads nice fish 👌🎣
Cheers mate!
Where boys? Haven't found the Z's yet this year.
It’s top secret national security n all that
Yesterday caught 4 zanders 50cm+ and huuge pike 70+ on UL 1,65m setup, awesome fights 😅😅
Nice man!
Nice vid dudes, keep it up
Thanks dude!

Cheers mate!
Good to see you back on the Bank 👍
Good to be back! Thanks for watching
What's with Tom and all the heavy breathing 🤣
Pike make me breath
New here but wanted to say hi and that it’s great to see such excitement and fun happening with you two...
And a hi from Brighton, Sussex too.

Thank you! That's really kind.
top dangling bros!
Cheers Dom!
i fancy some lure fishing like. not tried it myself, just getting back in to some coarse fishing after about 20 years out.
Give it a go David! Tight lines with whatever fishing you decide to do!
@@SnaggedBro oh yea so i went to an urban spot on the tees targeting perch on a tiny spinner and caught my first pike, it was only small but was absolutely over the moon, just caught on my sons 7ft shakepeare rod and reel with that shite line that comes with it haha.

Hi greate vid, where abouts is it u fish because i fish at the canal
And would like to try new spots
Keep trying new stretches on canal! That’s what we keep doing👊🏼 tight lines buddy
Superb chaps well done
Thanks pal!
Great video guys, you done any videos on what rucksacks you use an lure storage boxes you carry? 👍😎
We haven't yet. But we use a simple lunchbox for the lures. Lol
Snagged Bro 😂 look forward to seeing vid on what you take with on sessions. 👍😎✌️
Lovely video👍🏼. Quick question. Is there regulations for lure hooks, does it need to be micro hook or barbless then fishing on the canal? Thanks
nah man
Na your good. Canals are like the wild wild west, anything goes.
Thanks
Nice one fellas
Cheers mate!
Was out last week spinning , couldn't get through all the magnet anglers ,😳
Magnet anglers 😡😡
Surely they're called manglers?
Well done lads
Cheers pal!
Thought you might have known it is illegal to return a zander back into the canal. Invasive species
Bit of a grey area tbf 👊🏼 thanks for watching tho dude x

It's a bit of a grey area. If anglers return them it's the permit holder ( who owns the stretch) that can be fined.
hey mate, another great vid! just wondered what the set up was between braid and lure? cheers
Hi mate. Between braid and lure is 9lb fluro carbon leader 👌🏼 which is ideal for the Perch and Zander. However a wire trace would be much more sufficient were we to target Pike 👌🏼 thanks for watching
The hook needs to come out more on the top.of the bait
Thanks dude!
Can you pls give me the location of then canal i'd love to go fishing there love your videos btw
Up the road from Sean’s moms house 🤔🤫🤭
Just starting lure fishing great video
Thanks dude! Tight lines
Nice as always.
Thanks for your comment as always!
**new subscriber alert** just came across your channel watched this video and now really want to get out and try lure fishing keep it up guys brilliant work
Go give it a go dude. Have a look around the channel you should find everything you need to know!
Snagged Bro i will do i have a quick question do you use a wire trace?
Yes we do, for pike. For Zander we use a flouro carbon leader
Try brighter colors if they are in darker/muddy waters
Thanks for the tip.
Lovely video gents! As someone else noticed, the hook could do with a bit more show outside the lure. On top of that, Zanders have hard and dense mouthes.

Zander my favourite fish to catch, unfortunately not to much in England...the bigger ones are in the deeper water
Love zander!
Nice Video Guys / Good to see u back at it one quick question tho when fishing for perch and zander and ocassional jack pike do you use wire trace or flurocarbon trace ???? Been waiting for you to make a video ahhhhhhh :\
We tend to stick with flouro on the light gear, if you play the pike right you should get bitten off.
Hi guys, can I ask what landing net you are using please? Great content 🎣
Abu Garcia small predator net!
Great stuff here. Only just found your channel. Subbed.
I'm glad you found us in the end!
Great vid. Love watching them. But what rods are u using in this video
Abu Garcia vendetta (Sean)
Love this content, makes me wanna get on the bank ASAP
Just do it!
Where abouts is that stretch? Just started to fish on the canals around brum but not much luck so far so looking for new spots
🤐🤐 thanks for watching mate
Check out the fishing net.
I totally need a fishing net just like that.
It's a Berkley one mate, I think there currently sold out though 🤦 check the link in description
Nice to see you both back on the bank! 3 species too. Love that!
Cheers Paul!
