The radio station called me and Edvin asking to
follow us for a fishing session and record live
... so I think we'll embarrass ourselves.
- We'll certainly do, if you want to look at it
... keep on watching this video.
- And you'll see how it works with the radio.
When you're hosted live on radio you want
to catch fish, so we've headed for a lake
... that always deliver perch. A safe card,
but we haven't fished here for like two weeks
... so the radio guys will come 11 am and
start record immediately
... and we'll meet them up at a bridge.
It's currently 8 am so we'll do some test fishing
... until the radio guy arrives. That's the plan.
- I'm not used to talking live
... so this will be a challenge for me. I will
say something inappropriate - count on that.
I'll try. Edvin what's your favorite fish?
- Roach.
How to you catch fish?
- You should...
And then listeners will hang up and leave.
We're done, good bye.
Before we start fishing, since the time
is limited to 2.5 hours
... will be trying out three hot spots.
We're drifting around trying to look
... out for baitfish. We have at the moment only
found small fish but a previous spot looked promising
... so I'll think we'll start out there.
However, we'll try all three spots when they come.
We've arrived to the spot where we saw
the biggest perch on the sonar
... small perch. Let's see if they want to bite
so let's rig our stuff and start fishing
... I'll start out with dropshot will Edvin
goes for a regular jig.
Time to search the spot quickly so
I'll start out with a Flatnose Mini on a regular
... jig head as Tobbe said. Great
search-lure to look for active fish
... if we don't get any bites, we'll try out
some smaller lures. Let's get starting
... we have to hurry up before the radio guy
arrives. We have to perform and not
... show them zero fish in the boat. Not ideal.
An hour left.
Got one Edvin.
- Seriously?
Net! I got one! We caught something!
Found them. Perfect radio-fish
... where we don't have to mention the weight.
Happy we got a fish.
Nice perch though.
- Lovely stripes and sail
Have I caught any smaller perch than this?
I think I have.
Barely.
- Right, let's hope for bigger perch.
The big ones we saw on the sonar.
Got one Edvin! No.
- That one was easily more than 2 grams.
No! Again! No, what is this?
- What are you using?
Monkey Vibe.
Had one.
Now! Has to be a pike - rock solid bite.
Big perch Tobbe.
It's a nice one, almost net.
Don't dare to bass-land it.
I'll use jig head as well now.
- Lovely perch, 0.5 kg
... if we catch those during the recording we'll
become national celebrities.
"He caught a 0.5 kg perch here".
Awesome! The search-lure delivered.
You caught the super small ones.
- I found them! I looked them up.
I looked up the bigger ones while you searched
for the smaller ones. Back it goes.
We were trying what worked best but
jig always deliver bigger fish
... and it's more fun catching bigger ones.
I had minimal success on the dropshot so I'll
... use Flatnose Mini that I've made in photofish.
You used a brown one right?
Motoroil base, hotpike spots with an orange paddle.
- This one is hot. Will work 100%.
Attaching it to a head and see if we can catch
bigger perch. Perhaps we should leave this spot?
Right, don't fish it too much until
the guy arrives.
Super shallow, like 1.5 to 2 meters.
The second cast! This is big Tobbe!
Rock solid strike again! We really found them.
They are located at a small shallow rock-area
... maximum depth of 2 meters. Shallow.
Here you can see the hotpike, orange
... and golden lure. Nice perch but
not as big as the previous one. Bye bye!
Wet and everything - that's what it takes
when catching big perch.
This one is also nice.
- Really Edvin?
Sick spot Tobbe. This could be a pike.
No, it's a perch.
They keep on biting! Another nice perch.
We've caught four perch and one pike here
... so we know this spot is good for radio-fishing.
We'll leave this spot and try out another
... so we have different choices.
We've arrived to the second spot, we'll
drive around keeping an eye on the sonar
... and see if we can find some fish.
If we don't find anything
... we'll just move on. Currently nothing
but this spot can be good sometimes
... so we just had to try. Saw something.
We'll go for a similar spot if this does not work.
Here he comes with his car. Do you
think he can get something?
Yes.
- Do you think we'll catch something?
Hope so.
Hello!
- Hey!
Jump in before you sink.
Went well!
We've arrived to the first spot
where we caught some fish
... so we'll start out here. What are we doing?
We'll be hosted for 1.5 hours right?
You'll start out fishing while we are hosted
on the radio in this bag for the morning program
... P4. Hopefully we'll catch something
during the radio session.
Hopefully! Can you watch it afterwards?
We're so used to videos - can you listen to it?
Sure, the morning program at P4 Jönköping
is stored on the web so visit the website
... and head to Tablå and select the day
14th of May. Then just start the program
... and you can listen from 11:30 am and forward.
- Please do! We'll start in 9 minutes
... let's see how long it takes before we catch
a fish - or perhaps I'm jinxing it?
Be quiet Tobbe.
- Right. We won't catch anything
... at least we can talk. We can pretend
like we're catching fish - no one sees.
You've promised fish Tobias.
- I did?
We have to deliver now Edvin.
- Right, we have to.
The internet status shows yellow. We're
at the best spot right now.
We're at the best spot but the connection is bad.
It's yellow and red so perhaps we won't
... be able to fish this spot. Unlucky Tobbe.
Hopefully it works.
We're starting in a minute right?
- Right now.
Got one! First cast.
We'll head out with some of Sweden's most
famous fishermen from Eksjö
... you have already got fish Noa?
The perch are coming one after one
in the secret lake outside Eksjö
... Tobias Ekvall and Edvin Johansson are
showing me their perch right now
... while they are recording. They are
Youtubers! They are sometimes getting
... over 100 000 viewers on their videos.
Took after five seconds of fishing.
The spot is great and the sound is good
... can't get any better!
Pig! Got a solid one.
Check this lovely perch out
... sadly the radio listeners can't see it but
luckily you can. Look at the lovely stripes
... black, long and fat. I want a picture of
this one. Back this lovely perch goes
... and we're getting strikes all the time
but the connection is bad
... leading to a rough situation if they
can't hear us. We have to search
... for a spot with better connection.
Let's drive 50 meters down.
Plans are changing, we have to head for
another spot since the connection is bad
... we caught a few fish rapidly but
the connection is bad so
... here we go.
It's the Eko during the radio so it's
a pause for 20 minutes
... we swapped spot for the connection
so let's try to catch fish here
... so we can deliver during recording.
The rod is bending.
- It does. A pike.
You are happy with that?
- Sure.
Not a big one right?
- Right, but always fun catching fish.
It's going well Edvin!
- Right Tobbe, we're delivering
... back it goes.
Two rounds of talking left before it ends
so let's head for the spot we fished before
... where we had all the fish. Sadly the
connection is bad but hopefully they can hear us.
I'm making water-sounds since I'm standing
on a boat together with Tobias Ekvall
... and Edvin Johansson, among Sweden's
most famous fishermen due to their Youtube channel
... I have to ask you Edvin - what's happening?
- A fish came and bit of my jig
... the fishing lure.
- The paddle is bitten off?
Right, it didn't swallow the entire lure.
- It went for the back.
Not going for the back, bite better instead
so we can get a look of you.
The interest for fishing, how does it look Tobbe?
- It has increased a lot the past time
... unsure if it's a result from corona.
People generally enjoy the nature
... and during the pandemic where you can't
hang out with too many people
... and sports got canceled, people went out
fishing instead.
Bottom. Poor Edvin. Did you get it loose?
- Yes, let's see if we can catch a final fish.
Yes! Fish!
- You're kidding.
Got one right after I got untangled.
- Did the perch see it or?
It wondered what was stuck to the rock
perhaps, then it was ready to strike.
Here it is, a bit smaller.
- Right but lovely.
Clear stripes on this perch. Of course
I'll get a picture of this
... that will be uploaded on Instagram.
I had one! The radio session is done
and it went really well
... we caught lots of fish. Great questions and
super fun to fish with the radio
... did we behave?
- You did. You are used to talking
... you can answer the questions and
well educated. We caught like 5-10 fish
... today?
- Something like that and a pike.
We'll fish a bit more and make sure the
radio guy gets a fish - crossed fingers
... the activity died after we stopped recording.
- They are seeking attention.
Right, they want to be on the radio.
They talk so much.
The reporter has a fish, I think it's a pike.
- Want the net?
Don't know.
- Do so Tobbe.
It's a pike!
It goes under the boat.
- Dramatic! Check it out!
Yes! Awesome.
- Thanks for all your advices
... that's what made me catch the fish.
- You're doing great!
We've attended radio P4 Jönköping, what an experience.
A true experience. We got some insight on how
a radio guy works.
If you think we embarrassed ourselves, make sure
to like the video and subscribe
... and we'll see if we'll be on a radio
episode another time.
Or TV.
- Right.
Great radio! Lots of fish.
- Didn't know the questions but fun having you!
Was super fun.
- Take care fishermen, bye!
