When the redfin are biting like crazy, it is hard to pass up the opportunity to head out fishing for them. Sure these fish are not the biggest fish in out waterways, but they're prolific, easy to catch and as you can see in this video every once in a while a slightly larger one will come along that is big enough to take a couple of fillets off. Rex Hunt once referred to redfin as the flathead of the fresh water. This is a humorous comment but also a very true comment as there are a lot similarities between the two. Redfin, known as perch or English perch in other countries are easy to catch, making them a great fishing option for the kids and younger people. Knowing how to catch redfin is quite simple as there are a number of different fishing techniques that will work. Spinning for redfin as seen in this video is a great way to catch them, so too is using soft plastics, minnow style lures and even flies. Bait fishing is also a very effective way of catching redfin perch with baits such as yabbies, shrimp, worms and mudeyes all working very well. Redfin are a very cannibalistic species of fish and will often eat smaller redfin and other small fishing species. If you're new to fishing, or introducing your kids to fishing, here in Victoria redfin are the perfect beginner species of fish to target. In this fishing video, I have titled it the redfin witching hour. I weas only fishing for around an hour and a half. The first half an hour was a little slow, but then the moment that sun dipped behind the hills to the west of Lake Buffalo, the redfin fishing was insane. The redfin just went mad as you can see. There really was a redfin fishing witching hour.
