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 00:00:56,360 --> 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 00:01:42,660 --> 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 --> 00:01:58,820 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 --> 00:02:31,650 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 --> 00:02:54,600 A good start to the day It's stormy weather 44 00:02:54,440 --> 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 00:03:10,470 --> 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 00:03:38,380 --> 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 --> 00:04:28,810 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 --> 00:04:51,560 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 --> 00:05:26,100 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 00:06:15,730 --> 00:06:19,730 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 00:07:41,190 --> 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 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,760 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 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,968 Or with the wind, otherwise you'll not feel the strike 129 00:09:13,460 --> 00:09:17,460 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 --> 00:10:15,990 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 --> 00:10:22,900 It's kind of ok clear water 141 00:10:22,900 --> 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 --> 00:10:31,520 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 --> 00:11:00,800 - 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 --> 00:11:12,100 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 --> 00:12:19,490 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 00:12:40,320 --> 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 --> 00:12:56,110 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 --> 00:13:20,740 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 --> 00:14:00,490 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 00:15:29,300 --> 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 --> 00:15:54,810 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 218 00:16:28,763 --> 00:16:31,333 I actually think this will be ok 219 00:16:31,470 --> 00:16:35,470 I'm impressed by myself, It would've been easier with a big pike 220 00:16:35,699 --> 00:16:39,929 But I managed to cut out some meat for us to use for the soup 221 00:16:40,219 --> 00:16:45,929 I'll cut off the last part which is totally bone free 222 00:16:45,936 --> 00:16:49,936 I'll cut off much meat because it's hard to be picky with the bones 223 00:16:50,598 --> 00:16:56,800 pay attention, here's the row of bones and I'll make a cut right here 224 00:16:57,470 --> 00:17:02,870 A lot of meat goes to waste but it'll be worth it on this pike 225 00:17:05,410 --> 00:17:08,611 this is all bone free and this one's full of bones 226 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,774 This one we'll throw to the fox 227 00:17:12,547 --> 00:17:16,377 And this bone free we save 228 00:17:16,855 --> 00:17:18,425 and the pike is done 229 00:17:18,425 --> 00:17:25,945 There is some light left of the day and sometimes the perch is willing to strike 230 00:17:25,945 --> 00:17:30,375 when the sun is about to set, so it'll be worth trying to catch one 231 00:17:30,421 --> 00:17:33,421 even the sun has appeared 232 00:17:33,421 --> 00:17:37,810 or at least you see it far away 233 00:17:37,881 --> 00:17:41,881 It may be a hot period for perch now 234 00:17:41,881 --> 00:17:45,881 We'll cross our fingers that it can deliver 235 00:17:47,630 --> 00:17:49,610 - are you ready? - I am ready 236 00:17:55,954 --> 00:17:59,954 When i fish with this flatnose mini, the first thing I do is just cast it out 237 00:17:59,954 --> 00:18:07,274 and let it sink to the bottom, you want the lure to bounce on the bottom 238 00:18:07,274 --> 00:18:12,374 I can see it reached the bottom when the line stops going out from the reel 239 00:18:15,163 --> 00:18:20,323 and then I pull up the rod and keep doing small twitches 240 00:18:20,323 --> 00:18:27,300 at the same time I'm retrieving the line and keep it tense all the time 241 00:18:27,300 --> 00:18:32,623 no matter the season the perch are often very picky 242 00:18:32,623 --> 00:18:37,443 and you don't want to miss out when the perch of your dream strikes 243 00:18:37,713 --> 00:18:44,333 In every video, someone always comments and wonder what gear we're using 244 00:18:44,873 --> 00:18:49,553 I have a Abu Garcia Zenon reel 2500 size 245 00:18:49,748 --> 00:18:56,768 2500 is the most common size for perch, and works best according to me 246 00:18:56,768 --> 00:19:02,138 This Zenon reel that I have is one of Abus most expensive reels 247 00:19:02,138 --> 00:19:06,138 and a really good reel if you want to indulge yourself great fishing gear 248 00:19:06,138 --> 00:19:10,428 But there isn't always a need for the most expensive gear for good fishing 249 00:19:10,428 --> 00:19:18,698 a reel between 1000-2000:- is absolutely enough for fun perch fishing 250 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:24,880 The braid I'm using is rated at 5kg and comes from Stroft 251 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,880 between 5-8kg will be great for perch 252 00:19:29,620 --> 00:19:33,520 the rod I'm using a Sweet stick from Bite of Bleak 253 00:19:33,639 --> 00:19:38,582 there are a lot of good rods out there this one is 5-20g 254 00:19:38,582 --> 00:19:42,932 and around 7 foot is good, this one is 7,6 255 00:19:42,932 --> 00:19:46,512 to be able to cast a good distance 256 00:19:48,318 --> 00:19:49,798 I had one! 257 00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:55,490 I couldn't believe my ears, my sight my feel or anything 258 00:19:55,490 --> 00:19:58,229 from nowhere a strike 259 00:19:58,254 --> 00:20:01,114 And offcourse I missed it 260 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,500 That might have been the one chance today 261 00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:10,420 Tobbe just stands there with his expensive reel, I thought he was a pro 262 00:20:10,420 --> 00:20:14,420 apparently not, he need to hook that fish 263 00:20:14,420 --> 00:20:16,210 What are you doing Tobbe? 264 00:20:17,166 --> 00:20:19,916 I cant take it, I've given up 265 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,720 It kills me 266 00:20:31,644 --> 00:20:35,644 Now I've done the last cast for today 267 00:20:35,644 --> 00:20:39,644 I'm tired and we need to reload for tomorrow 268 00:20:39,644 --> 00:20:42,894 Because it's so much at stake tomorrow 269 00:20:43,404 --> 00:20:46,894 It's enough, only one thing to do 270 00:20:46,894 --> 00:20:50,894 Go home and drown our sorrows with some pizza 271 00:20:59,924 --> 00:21:02,104 Tobbe!, I got some pizza for us 272 00:21:02,104 --> 00:21:06,104 We're here in a nice little cabin we rented 273 00:21:06,104 --> 00:21:08,384 there's Sara with the pizza 274 00:21:09,515 --> 00:21:13,515 We have a good plan for tomorrow I both like it and not 275 00:21:13,515 --> 00:21:17,550 The thing I like is that we probably will have great fishing 276 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,119 what I don't like is that we need to get out of bed super early 277 00:21:21,323 --> 00:21:27,623 04:30 because it will be super windy around noon 278 00:21:27,653 --> 00:21:30,633 I've had enough of that wind 279 00:21:30,919 --> 00:21:35,763 I'm gonna hear the wind in my head and dream about me blowing away 280 00:21:36,596 --> 00:21:42,600 we'll have another go, I'm ready to smash this pizza and then go to bed 281 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,546 and wake up in a few hours again 282 00:21:50,990 --> 00:21:55,299 Can you hear that Sara?
