1
00:00:02,147 --> 00:00:05,677
the 3 most common species in
Swedish lakes are

2
00:00:05,677 --> 00:00:06,587
Pike

3
00:00:06,628 --> 00:00:07,538
Perch

4
00:00:07,624 --> 00:00:08,714
Zander

5
00:00:08,714 --> 00:00:13,604
You've always heard that zander is
the best fish to eat amongst these 3

6
00:00:13,904 --> 00:00:16,534
Perch is so tasty on sandwich

7
00:00:16,895 --> 00:00:23,111
and pike is so much bone in it 
but you can eat it with horseradish

8
00:00:23,578 --> 00:00:27,578
Sara and I will fish in a regular
Swedish lake

9
00:00:27,578 --> 00:00:31,578
and catch those 3 species and then we'll
do a tasting test

10
00:00:31,828 --> 00:00:35,935
Is it possible, by cook them the same way,
feel a difference in taste

11
00:00:36,413 --> 00:00:40,413
Not only a challenge to see if they 
taste different

12
00:00:40,698 --> 00:00:44,288
The big challenge will be to catch
these 3 speicies

13
00:00:44,425 --> 00:00:47,315
It's early spring, cold in the water

14
00:00:47,315 --> 00:00:50,745
You can't count on the fish to be active

15
00:00:51,130 --> 00:00:55,340
But the things we do to see if it's 
actually any difference in taste

16
00:00:56,036 --> 00:01:00,246
In lakes this early in the spring, 
the perch can often be found in deep holes

17
00:01:00,246 --> 00:01:03,376
or on the edges, 
pressed against the bottom

18
00:01:03,596 --> 00:01:06,166
The pike is where the bait fish is

19
00:01:06,393 --> 00:01:11,265
The zander can be tricky but you often
find them on a shallow

20
00:01:12,975 --> 00:01:16,706
There is one lure that can catch 
all 3 species

21
00:01:16,706 --> 00:01:18,726
And that is flatnose mini

22
00:01:19,651 --> 00:01:24,711
Flatnose mini is a well known lure
which we fished with a lot

23
00:01:24,846 --> 00:01:27,746
And most often it has been the
key to success

24
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:30,464
Let's hope it's the same this time

25
00:01:30,464 --> 00:01:34,244
But first we'll read some of your comments

26
00:01:34,486 --> 00:01:37,496
First comment is from Grisfeber 
and he wonder why

27
00:01:37,496 --> 00:01:41,796
I turn to a Skåning when I say toad
as I did in the latest video

28
00:01:42,066 --> 00:01:43,456
A toooaad

29
00:01:43,471 --> 00:01:45,231
A real toooaaad

30
00:01:45,433 --> 00:01:46,943
A toooaaad perch

31
00:01:47,183 --> 00:01:51,183
And the reason is that I fished bream with
Alexander Björk a few years back

32
00:01:51,183 --> 00:01:55,183
He's from Skåne and say tooaaad
to al the big breams

33
00:01:55,562 --> 00:01:58,082
This was a toooaaad, it was

34
00:01:58,129 --> 00:02:02,129
It sounded so funny so I started
to say that aswell

35
00:02:02,129 --> 00:02:06,129
toooaaad to all big perch or fish
or whatever

36
00:02:06,571 --> 00:02:11,531
We've got a comment from Frejsan14
who wants us to say hello to her mother

37
00:02:11,642 --> 00:02:16,212
So hello mother and Frejsan 14
So fun you watch our videos together

38
00:02:16,608 --> 00:02:22,348
HolyN-Evil wonders if we will fish
at the west coast this summer

39
00:02:22,705 --> 00:02:27,175
We've actually planned that out, Me and
Edvin will go there and try som sea fishing

40
00:02:27,175 --> 00:02:31,065
after a vary of species, and you don't
want to miss out on that

41
00:02:31,295 --> 00:02:36,628
Dick Löfrgren says that we gilding his 
sundays, so thank you

42
00:02:37,216 --> 00:02:41,216
I hope you keep on watching now
cause me and Tobbe is about to catch some

43
00:02:49,316 --> 00:02:54,006
A good start to the day
It's stormy weather

44
00:02:54,044 --> 00:02:59,104
Not that easy to ramp the boat
when the water is pushed straight in

45
00:02:59,104 --> 00:03:05,564
task number 1 today is to get the boat
in the water, there are a lot of stones

46
00:03:05,995 --> 00:03:09,995
I don't want to scrape it all up

47
00:03:10,047 --> 00:03:16,507
The idea is for us to start fishing for perch
but it's hard to even feel the strikes

48
00:03:16,722 --> 00:03:22,352
it wont be easy, but on the bright side
we have no rain

49
00:03:22,877 --> 00:03:27,977
If i push the boat that way, it will just
blow straight back

50
00:03:28,195 --> 00:03:30,785
we need to push it alongside the shore

51
00:03:30,887 --> 00:03:34,158
and then jump in the boat out there

52
00:03:35,387 --> 00:03:37,867
come on Sara, let's start pushing

53
00:03:38,038 --> 00:03:41,418
- No stones please
- easy to say Tobbe

54
00:03:42,712 --> 00:03:44,342
push Sara!

55
00:03:47,236 --> 00:03:50,456
No need to worry, this was easy

56
00:03:54,565 --> 00:03:59,615
You don't want to rig the rods in the
storm on this lake

57
00:03:59,615 --> 00:04:02,615
with really clear water

58
00:04:02,711 --> 00:04:06,211
Therefore we'll go in there where we
can have som shelter from the wind

59
00:04:06,364 --> 00:04:08,944
behind this point it looks perfect

60
00:04:10,948 --> 00:04:14,838
we will catch perch, pike and zander

61
00:04:15,221 --> 00:04:19,861
In this small forest lake only holds
perch and pike

62
00:04:19,861 --> 00:04:23,271
so the zander we'll have to catch later
on another lake

63
00:04:23,271 --> 00:04:28,081
I want the perch and pike to get the best
chance to taste as good as possible

64
00:04:28,451 --> 00:04:34,381
If we where to fish perch and pike in a
small muddy lake

65
00:04:34,381 --> 00:04:37,641
The risk is for them to taste a bit muddy

66
00:04:37,656 --> 00:04:41,656
This lake has very clear water
and the quality of the water i good

67
00:04:41,656 --> 00:04:45,316
It's much of sand an stones on the bottom

68
00:04:45,316 --> 00:04:51,056
And then you know the perch and pike
get the best chance to taste good

69
00:04:51,918 --> 00:04:56,220
flatnose mini is the lure I fished 
with the most

70
00:04:56,220 --> 00:05:00,910
Edvin designed it for 10-15 years ago

71
00:05:01,291 --> 00:05:05,291
what's great about this softlure

72
00:05:05,291 --> 00:05:06,751
you can catch big perch....

73
00:05:07,550 --> 00:05:08,890
big pike...

74
00:05:09,321 --> 00:05:11,431
and even big zander

75
00:05:11,934 --> 00:05:16,964
flatnose mini isn't only good for big fish
it works great if you want a lot of fish

76
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:22,820
today we're after fish to cook and don't
want to spend to much time catching them

77
00:05:23,121 --> 00:05:26,001
so flatnose mini is a safe bet

78
00:05:26,622 --> 00:05:31,432
you can find flatnose mini in photofish
where you can design your own colours

79
00:05:31,453 --> 00:05:36,523
and we also got some brand new 
standard colours

80
00:05:36,973 --> 00:05:42,233
I'm so stoked to try out this new colour
fantasy which is blue/red

81
00:05:42,233 --> 00:05:44,953
I think it will be hot in this clear water

82
00:05:45,259 --> 00:05:49,259
I want the best chance to catch a big per.

83
00:05:49,259 --> 00:05:53,259
Not a big perch but catch one fast
I usually want big fish

84
00:05:53,710 --> 00:05:58,430
So therefore I'll try this new colour
Sara brought today, Ultimate Silver!

85
00:05:58,610 --> 00:06:01,760
It looks like a cool silver fish

86
00:06:02,572 --> 00:06:06,868
The perch can't resist it, even the pikes

87
00:06:06,868 --> 00:06:10,638
The plan is to catch both perch and pike
in this water

88
00:06:10,638 --> 00:06:14,638
and the pike will be like a bonus fish
when we try for perch

89
00:06:15,073 --> 00:06:19,073
It's time to start, I'm feeling hungry
already

90
00:06:19,406 --> 00:06:23,406
Let's see if the perch or pike will
be the first fish

91
00:06:25,664 --> 00:06:30,924
When you try to catch fish to cook
it's so much more on stake

92
00:06:30,985 --> 00:06:35,685
We want to avoid being hungry
so we must deliver

93
00:06:35,742 --> 00:06:38,372
Sooner or later we'll find them

94
00:06:38,877 --> 00:06:40,537
I got one! got one!

95
00:06:40,705 --> 00:06:43,695
I told you we'll find them sooner or later

96
00:06:43,950 --> 00:06:47,950
- It was sooner rather than later
- yeah like 2 seconds after

97
00:06:48,534 --> 00:06:52,134
I don't know if it's a pike or a perch
but I think it's a pike

98
00:06:52,201 --> 00:06:55,221
It may be a good fish to cook,
It's a pike

99
00:06:56,884 --> 00:07:00,204
Is it big enough to eat?

100
00:07:00,377 --> 00:07:03,707
there's a lot of bones in the pike

101
00:07:03,707 --> 00:07:06,517
so it's a lot easier with a bigger pike

102
00:07:06,792 --> 00:07:10,792
But I don't want to take home those
big pikes

103
00:07:10,794 --> 00:07:13,624
It's okey to take this small pike

104
00:07:14,448 --> 00:07:17,858
It's a test and not supposedt o get full

105
00:07:18,191 --> 00:07:22,191
so this small pike will be enough

106
00:07:23,171 --> 00:07:28,161
This pike really wanted that flatnose mini

107
00:07:28,806 --> 00:07:32,806
It'll work great for our taste test

108
00:07:33,813 --> 00:07:36,773
We'll prep it for the soup

109
00:07:36,911 --> 00:07:40,911
There's 2 ways to put the pike to death

110
00:07:41,019 --> 00:07:43,859
One thing is to strike something hard 
in it's head

111
00:07:43,859 --> 00:07:47,859
The other thing is to use a knife
through it's brain

112
00:07:47,859 --> 00:07:51,439
I don't have anything that hard 
in the boat so I'll use the knife

113
00:07:52,653 --> 00:07:55,173
It's important to let it bleed out


114
00:07:55,173 --> 00:07:58,363
otherwise it may taste a bit blood
and iron

115
00:07:59,807 --> 00:08:02,817
I'll make a cut through the neck of it

116
00:08:04,394 --> 00:08:06,474
- here you go Tobbe
- thanks

117
00:08:08,658 --> 00:08:09,848
yummy!

118
00:08:09,946 --> 00:08:14,116
Check on the pike, let's catch a perch
in this lake

119
00:08:14,668 --> 00:08:20,438
I've googled a good recipe on a fish soup
I can't wait to try it out

120
00:08:20,491 --> 00:08:22,871
I believe it'll taste good

121
00:08:23,036 --> 00:08:26,076
So it's time to catch that perch to cook

122
00:08:26,460 --> 00:08:33,340
This wind is brutal, It's like a wind from 
the North pole has reach Sweden

123
00:08:33,422 --> 00:08:38,807
and made chaos on this lake, It's not that
easy to fish if I'm being honest

124
00:08:39,385 --> 00:08:44,435
It's hard to feel the lure, you'll really
have to concentrate

125
00:08:46,506 --> 00:08:50,506
It's positive that you can cast really far

126
00:08:57,258 --> 00:09:02,968
It's a deep edge where we fish right now
I've seen some perch earlier on the sonar

127
00:09:03,589 --> 00:09:08,829
It's important in this wind that you either
fish against the wind

128
00:09:09,028 --> 00:09:12,968
Or with the wind, otherwise you'll
not feel the strike

129
00:09:13,046 --> 00:09:17,046
if you fish from the side wind the line 
is like a bow

130
00:09:17,271 --> 00:09:22,791
and you can't even feel if there's a perch

131
00:09:23,229 --> 00:09:27,964
a good tip, just hope we'll catch one soon

132
00:09:38,714 --> 00:09:42,504
I've got a bad feeling with this lake

133
00:09:42,615 --> 00:09:45,695
I don't think the perch will strike

134
00:09:45,695 --> 00:09:50,637
often in clear water lake there are
not so much perch

135
00:09:50,637 --> 00:09:54,637
But they are often bigger and should
taste better

136
00:09:54,657 --> 00:09:58,657
If we don't catch one it'll be hard to 
do a tasting test

137
00:09:58,657 --> 00:10:03,927
We'll have to go to a more muddy lake
a little bit darker water but more perch

138
00:10:11,439 --> 00:10:15,099
This is our last try, we don't have 
much time at this lake

139
00:10:15,149 --> 00:10:19,289
It's bigger, muddier but not 
super muddy

140
00:10:19,289 --> 00:10:22,009
It's kind of ok clear water

141
00:10:22,009 --> 00:10:25,189
I'll cross my fingers that we can catch 
a perch to cook

142
00:10:25,262 --> 00:10:27,932
It wont be to much to ask for

143
00:10:27,932 --> 00:10:31,052
nothing else to do than to get going

144
00:10:31,237 --> 00:10:37,407
I've not given up on this fantasy, let's
see if it can give us a half muddy perch

145
00:10:38,967 --> 00:10:45,417
Then I know when I taste, if it tastes
a bit muddy it's probably perh

146
00:10:45,609 --> 00:10:49,179
we'll see, now let's catch a perch

147
00:10:49,315 --> 00:10:52,485
It would be nice if you get 
a strike at least

148
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,495
well at least something, a nibble or so

149
00:10:55,660 --> 00:11:00,080
- It's totally dead now
- feels like you fish for nothing

150
00:11:00,922 --> 00:11:03,742
hello!, where are you perch?

151
00:11:03,898 --> 00:11:07,898
- really
- that's perch, if they're not up for it

152
00:11:08,380 --> 00:11:12,010
Pikes you can always trigger to strike

153
00:11:12,147 --> 00:11:16,147
but perch like "I wont eat today"

154
00:11:18,450 --> 00:11:22,450
The perch refuse to strike today

155
00:11:22,613 --> 00:11:27,723
Me and Sara are on land and there's 
only one thing to do until tomorrow

156
00:11:27,723 --> 00:11:31,723
and we can hope for both perch
and zander to be willing to strike

157
00:11:31,723 --> 00:11:34,423
and that is to clean out this pike

158
00:11:34,423 --> 00:11:38,873
Pike is a really hard fish to clean out
It got a lot of bones

159
00:11:38,873 --> 00:11:42,873
and the bones are in strange places
compared to other species

160
00:11:42,873 --> 00:11:48,483
I'll do my best to show you how to
clean out a pike, bone free

161
00:11:48,968 --> 00:11:52,718
You don't want bone from a pike
in your soup

162
00:11:52,805 --> 00:11:56,805
You'll start with a angled cut

163
00:11:59,758 --> 00:12:01,784
and turn the fish around

164
00:12:03,286 --> 00:12:06,886
and then a angled cut from tail fin

165
00:12:06,886 --> 00:12:14,370
When I feel the bone I get the knife
straight and cut alongside the spine

166
00:12:15,869 --> 00:12:19,049
all the way until it stops

167
00:12:21,923 --> 00:12:23,254
there we go

168
00:12:23,765 --> 00:12:25,305
we have the filet

169
00:12:26,957 --> 00:12:31,679
this is how it looks, pretty big when you
think how small that pike was

170
00:12:31,983 --> 00:12:35,983
next step is to remove the skin

171
00:12:35,983 --> 00:12:39,153
and also a similar piece on the other side

172
00:12:40,032 --> 00:12:41,892
Look at that

173
00:12:42,752 --> 00:12:46,752
You can see that the pike recently ate 
a roach

174
00:12:47,756 --> 00:12:51,756
I've never seen that before

175
00:12:52,246 --> 00:12:56,011
I can feel that there's another fish in
there aswell

176
00:12:56,220 --> 00:13:00,884
always fun when you clean out a fish to
see what's in it's stomach

177
00:13:01,334 --> 00:13:06,114
You can learn a lot from that, we'll
have a closer look at the roach

178
00:13:06,955 --> 00:13:10,955
cut it off an press out the fish

179
00:13:12,930 --> 00:13:15,810
one roach, and another one

180
00:13:16,544 --> 00:13:20,074
2 roach was the diet for this pike

181
00:13:20,279 --> 00:13:25,589
What you reckon Sara? shall we try roach
instead of perch in the soup?

182
00:13:25,912 --> 00:13:28,102
We can't catch a perch

183
00:13:28,490 --> 00:13:35,260
I've tried roach one time before and that
was not good, so a big NO for me

184
00:13:35,464 --> 00:13:38,764
I'll rather jump in the water and 
swim for 3 days

185
00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:43,840
both sides are gone, and right here there
are a lot of foxes and pigs

186
00:13:43,921 --> 00:13:48,691
I'll do what the old men used to do with
the pike, throw it to the fox

187
00:13:49,485 --> 00:13:53,935
It doesn't look that tasty right now
but we'll fix that

188
00:13:54,369 --> 00:14:00,049
I'll start to cut off the meat from the skin

189
00:14:00,901 --> 00:14:06,871
same here, just angle the knife
and follow the skin

190
00:14:07,292 --> 00:14:12,352
it's easier when you're indoors in a
kitchen with a bigger cutting board

191
00:14:12,717 --> 00:14:16,717
But when you're outdoors this will do

192
00:14:16,901 --> 00:14:21,921
Not full chaos but nos as good as
if you are indoors

193
00:14:22,379 --> 00:14:27,279
press the knife against the cutting board
and just pull

194
00:14:28,964 --> 00:14:32,314
a nice piece of skin, throw that to the fox

195
00:14:32,314 --> 00:14:35,604
and to exactly the same on the other
filet bit

196
00:14:35,604 --> 00:14:39,604
This pike may have been a tad to small
to take home and eat

197
00:14:39,604 --> 00:14:46,174
I think you should release all big pikes
I wouldn't take home a pike over 75 cm

198
00:14:46,174 --> 00:14:50,174
and absolutely not over 90 cm

199
00:14:50,174 --> 00:14:54,174
They don't taste good and they are super
important for the eco system

200
00:14:54,856 --> 00:14:59,686
A good pike to eat is around 60-75 cm

201
00:14:59,839 --> 00:15:05,399
A fish filet has 2 bits, the spine 
and the rear part

202
00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:10,289
which is always bone free, you can
feel alongside the spine

203
00:15:11,617 --> 00:15:18,417
There the bones end, so just cut if off
and you have a bone free bit

204
00:15:20,455 --> 00:15:24,455
Not the biggest bit, I've seen bigger

205
00:15:24,455 --> 00:15:28,955
but it's bone free so it'll do
for our small test

206
00:15:29,003 --> 00:15:32,783
we don't need soup for a whole 
school class

207
00:15:32,783 --> 00:15:37,428
here you have the ribs, 
so I'll cut that off

208
00:15:37,627 --> 00:15:42,267
they are very shallow so just cut
carefully

209
00:15:45,653 --> 00:15:50,683
Now we are at the hardest part
to cut out the bones in the middle

210
00:15:50,921 --> 00:15:54,081
The pike has got Y-shaped bones

211
00:15:54,505 --> 00:15:58,505
You need to cut at a very special way

212
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,970
You feel all the bones with your fingers

213
00:16:02,979 --> 00:16:11,179
Here's the back filet, I'll cut straight 
with the bones

214
00:16:11,326 --> 00:16:13,366
until you feel the bones

215
00:16:13,587 --> 00:16:18,723
after that you angle the knife outwards
and cut around the bones

216
00:16:18,723 --> 00:16:22,723
This is hard to make sure you get as
much meat as possible

217
00:16:23,475 --> 00:16:27,705
down with the knife and then angle it
and cut outwards
