EXPLORING RIVER - Searching for BIG PERCH

I love to explore new waters

You never know what you
might catch

How big they are

and how hard it's gonna be to
find great spots

But if you work hard and in the
end fins a good spot

The reward can be really big

I've got a friend named Niclas Edström

we've fished together for years and
caught a lot of nice fish

I'ts been a while since we filmed together

But now it's finally time to do that again

The idea is that Niclas and I are gonna
explore a river

that I've inly fished in once before

I didn't caught any huge fish but it felt
like it had potential

for huge perch

It's heavy

a nice perch

It's bigger than 1 kg

I'm from Linköping and have driven
2 hours down in Sweden

To have a look at this river

I usually fish in another river

And have a lot of experience in
how to fish rivers like this

I think we're gonna be able to crack
the code in this river aswell

You need to gather a lot of informationen
when you're exploring rivers like this

look at google maps and depts

and try to find some nice backwater

In the winter the perch are often
stationary in deep holes

you need to fish the lure really slow

It's always fun to set up a goal when
you try a new water

I think that a 1kg perch
in here are possible

so the goal for today is that both
Tobbe and I are gonna catch a 1kg perch

But first we'll read some of your comments

Sebastian want us to say hi to
his son Lukas

He's been ill for 5 days

It sucks to be sick for so long and
not be able to fish

So here's a big hello from us Lukas

We have a comment from Bergling saying
that Niclas are gonna be in the videos

I haven't been in a video since fall 2020

But now in 2025 it's time to use
all the gear

and show how to catch a real pig

you can hardly believe it's
middle of winter

it's almost 6 degrees outside

no ice in the edges with no wind

it's suppose to be -15 degrees now

but we're grateful for good weather

So that we can fish

Tobbe and I have been fishing
together for many years

It's been a few years
since we filmed together

It'll be exciting and fun

I fished in this river once before

It was first most 2 spots that
we caught fish on

It was this backwater and a spot
further down stream

there is a current just by the ice
