Fishing spinners on Extra ultra-light gear - catching perch and a sad ending

Just a short outing to the canal to try how the extra ultra-light setup handles some small spinners. I try a super vibrax in size one and is rewarded with some beutiful perch who all put up really good fights on the light gear. I definetly recomend trying this type of rod if you're already a fan of ultra-light fishing for any species like trout, bass, crappie, bluegill or perch.

I talk about switching to single hooks - even if I've debarbed the stock trebles and unfortunately I can show you why in the end. One perch got hurt by the trebles and I really hope it makes it. One shouldn't be blind to the fact that catch and release will hurt a percentage of the catch but we can always strive to be better. I'm very open to discuss this in the comments if anyone has any thoughts they want to share?

Anyway, next time I will try some micro soft plastics and see how that works out. If you liked the video I invite you to leave a like and subscribe to the channel - it makes my day! :)

Tigh lines!
