I Caught SO MANY Vampire Fish From The Carp Lake W/This Rig!

  • It was time for one last attempt at catching a PB Vampire (zander) from the carp lake before the warmer weather! I roped in a friend of mine (Darren) to join me in trying to catch a big zed. We were using small dead baits and covering as much water as we could. I decided to integrate a feeder into my fishing packed with smelly groundbait and fish, but would it be enough?!

    Great video chris! Here in the netherlands fishing for zander is HUGE. Fishing for them is the best here in the big rivers, bigger lakes and even in the cities. A tip to improve better hooking is to use smaller baits. You can easily cut a single baitfish in two, maybe even three slices.

    A good few years back I experimented with a cage feeder packed with mashed tinned Pilchard/Sardine whilst deadbaiting, I didn't notice much difference in pick up rates (f all as opposed to f all) but I did have a heated argument with a live aboard boater who acccused me of polluting the river (I must admit the slicks I produced made it appear as though the Exxon Valdiz had gone down in the river...)
    'Listen mate, that is fish oil, organic, natural, unlike the mineral and synthetic oil 💩 that you lot have no qualms about pumping into the river!'*

      Zander can be released into established still waters. Grafham, Rutland, etc all have Zander and they're competitively fished for as part of catch and a release competitions.
      I think essentially if they're established and low chance of escaping to spread, they're fine. Obviously waters can remove them if undesired.

      It's because they don't want folks casting all around the fishery while the predominant focus of the lakes is carp fishing. I fish a complex that allows lure fishing from nov1 to the last day of feb, but its mainly because the rest of the year has too many carp anglers on it and there is essentially no room to cast around.

      @martinryan8101 Před 2 měsíci

      Hi. Zander tend to be more finicky. They also have much smaller mouths which are really boney. Low light/ dusk can be a good time as they use their amazing eyesight. I’ve done well on 3rd of a small roach on a very long hair on a fluro hooklength and a size 10 Mixa hook. I use a light feeder rod with a quiver tip so they feel as little initial resistance as possible.
      Zander cannot be stocked into lakes, I believe the only lake that has a license for this is Houchins Fishable Lakes just outside Colchester.
      No doubt I’ll be told I’m wrong on most or all that I’ve written!

    Why don't you eat any of these delicious fish you get (zander, perch, trout)? Seems bit wasteful to catch and release.

      I bet you are from abroad as we are a island nation that has much taster fish from the sea ,so we tend to return fresh water fish as they often taste muddy+ if the locals catch you eating them you might be in world of trouble. So put them back !

      He's fishing at a commercial fishing lake. Without the permission of the owners to kill and take the fish away he has to return it.
