British Freshwater Fish (40 Species Underwater)

In Britain we have 53 species of freshwater fish (including non natives and fish that visit the lower reaches of rivers like sea bass, flounder) Over the past year I've been trying to film as many species as possible and will continue to do so.
The other half of my film will be available as a DVD and include issues like eel decline, getting children to interact with nature and bringing fish to the attention of nature NGO's.
Music by Kevin MacLeod
Disclaimer: Pumpkinseed footage was shot in France but the species does occur in several lakes in the UK, Some species were also shot in tanks to get more detail then would be possible in the wild.

6:30 looks like this crucian was once used as live bait and managed to survive

@jordanthorne1805 4 года назад

Good spot!!

@kevinchamberlain7928 3 года назад

Saw that but couldn't think why! I though spear gun but dismissed it. You may be right?

@JamesAH1 3 года назад

Is there anywhere up north to catch freshwater Mullet?

@tommyclemmit5609 9 лет назад

Yes terrific video Jack, thanks! Your right Bob, the bloomin naturalists largely can't be bothered to show the majesty of the under water world, not of our native waters anyway. I love our fish species, their appearance is so soft and understated, unlike a lot of the gaudy exotic species from elsewhere. Nice accompanying music too :-)

I don't know how I ended up here, but I'm so glad I did, beautiful video!!

@trevorhoward7682 2 года назад

Arrived at the site accidentally and so glad I did. Subscribed in anticipation of more great video.

@Pinejay 5 лет назад

I cried while watching. Thank you for the beauty

@shiao3990 7 лет назад

I could watch this all day. So beautiful!

@victordavis8344 3 года назад

Nice video, came here via a search for Gudgeon. Quite a few invasive species in the film including the Bitterling and Pumpkinseed.

Super video - many thanks!

@fishmansf4573 5 лет назад

The music is calming and filming is amazing.

I’m a late comer to this video obviously. Fantastic work.

@smiffywildlife 4 года назад

Outstanding, the time and effort you must have put in to create this masterpiece is a credit to your dedication.Many thanks for sharing this fascinating "sub surface" world that few of us have ever witnessed, and in such quality given your chosen environment. Pure magic. Phil.

Some lovely shots and real monsters of the deep.

@henrikjohnsen6369 9 лет назад

Great video Jack, thanks. Do you just use a snorkel when you go filming?

@hawkeye7862 6 лет назад

Epic footage nice video

@bobhobden 9 лет назад

Excellent video, it is so unusual to get film of our fish. Most seem to concentrate on ground animals and birds, can't say I've ever seen a programme about our native fish other than Salmon.

@JackPWMedia 9 лет назад

Yeah its a shame fish aren't shown on TV more

@daphnia-magna 5 лет назад

If not general public, then fishkeepers should be more interested, but they don't seem to be... People are strange.

@Wildlife-film 9 лет назад

Fantastic job, well done Jack! #fish :)

@007tallguy 8 лет назад

that's quite a variety! great job "catching" them on video! ;)

@Bishbashboshboshbosh 6 лет назад

Insanely good.

@antoniawildmedia 3 года назад

This is so well shot and so helpful, thank you! how did you get such steady shots?! Did you use a weighted tripod? And if so then how did you manage to focus without being in the water...? So many questions! Well done and thanks! I have a lot to learn!

@eglwysfawr4076 2 года назад

Awsome chanel. Subbed ✌️

@gee3883 4 года назад

Interesting vid thanks

@ZsaZsaUmbra 6 лет назад

Very informative

@F4Insight-uq6nt Год назад

That a lot more species than most would think.

@turfsupsurrey8455 3 года назад

i caught a pumpkinseed about 30 years ago in the thames in Surbiton

@OutRAjious 2 года назад

wonderful to see…!!

@WodnikSzuwarekHD 8 лет назад

Nice shot.

@Craig.Fawley 3 года назад

Excellent video again, I've actually caught bullhead on the river Nidd in North Yorkshire. The water clarity is top notch, what part of the country is the best for clear stretches of the trent?

@SuhelTanvirMahmudKazi1 4 года назад

good job. keep it up.

@peterbrewer1822 6 лет назад

I stand corrected! I wonder why only in that river? Thank you for the info, and the great video.

@jumemowery9434 5 лет назад

Nice!

@AndrewWheelerVisuals 6 лет назад

Lovely video ! I don't think there are many with so many species. You could try placing the video with the Science Photo Library in London, you might get some £££ !

@BasicFishingNZ 8 лет назад

cool video lol the soundtrack suits the video :)

@everhope6364 5 лет назад

stunning video really enjoyed the lamprey i didn't realise they were native species

@T0iletTr00per 8 лет назад

Do you have burbot (Lota lota) in Britain? They are very common here in Sweden. Awesome video btw!

@JackPWMedia 8 лет назад

They were present in the UK until the the 70's now believed to be extinct here because of pollution and warming waters.

@T0iletTr00per 8 лет назад

That sucks :/ they are beautiful fish! I have another question. Where did you find those tiny european whitefish? In the sea or in a lake? I have been searching for small ones for my aquarium with no results.

@humphrey4976 6 лет назад

You missed the can of Stella

@dorothygruendler3571 8 лет назад

Fantastic! Please do NOT hesitate to upload LONGER videos of Freshwater Life Aquatic. Right now I am watching yours, muted, with Pink Floyd's "ECHOES" in another window.

@RevSyd 8 лет назад

+dorothy gruendler it also syncs up pretty well with "Forty Species of British Freshwater Fish Gathered Together Underwater and Grooving with Jack Perks", on side 3 of Ummagumma

@dorothygruendler3571 8 лет назад

Ha!

@lindasearle1761 6 лет назад

where did you film the pumpkinseed?

@portcullis5622 7 лет назад

Wonderful to see so many different species in their own element. Have you tried to find a burbot? I guess that you would have to go to a Lota lota trouble for that one!

@JackPWMedia 7 лет назад

well they are extinct in the UK so not likely to find one!

@portcullis5622 7 лет назад

Thanks for the reply. Sorry, I just couldn't resist the "Lota lota" (ichthyology) joke! They are probably extinct in Britain (though not officially), but rumours still exist about the Yorkshre Derwent holding a small population. A live burbot hasn't been seen since the 1960's, but there are miles of the Derwent that hardly ever see an angler, so who knows? It is impossible to prove a negative, so I like to think that they could still be hanging on somewhere.

@dazellis8057 Год назад

What small fish would you recommend for a small pond

@emilysimon1614 4 года назад

The can at @3:18 :( but beautiful video enjoyed this in 2020 (:

@064pointbreak Год назад

Is it possible to catch a flounder far upstream?

@kelliemariemarshall 4 года назад

Invasive french stella fish 6:09

@cailouplaysrobloxyt7256 6 лет назад

great vid but I never knew in uk we have pumpkinseed or bull head

@JackPWMedia 6 лет назад

small numbers in the south east

@babydonnaP 6 лет назад

4:06 those are also Gudgeons

@BUSHCRAPPING 7 лет назад

how do i tell the difference between roach, rudd and to an extent chub? ??? any silvery darty fish with orange fin tips looks the same to me sometimes i can tell its a chub from the size but its very hard.

@JackPWMedia 7 лет назад

rudd have a up turned mouth and more golden colour to them, roach have a down turned mouth and silver colour while chub are larger as you say and a big mouth with a bronze colour and big scales.

@BUSHCRAPPING 7 лет назад

thanks

@ng16_will6 5 лет назад

What about sturgeon?

@jonstfrancis 5 лет назад

None in Britain anymore, sadly.

@LynxClanPS3TM2015 4 года назад

Bit funny mate i caught many over the years, last being last week🤣

@theotheseaeagle 3 года назад

They went extinct in the UK but can possibly be reintroduced at some point

@lukkyluciano 7 лет назад

do the pumpkinseed fish get big in the uk? Do they eat the eggs of any of your native fish? In the US they like to feed on black bass(largemouth and smallmouth) eggs so the male bass will spend 24/7 guarding the bed from bluegill and pumpkinseeds and a lot of male bass end up dying

@olivergaming-en3vt 7 лет назад

lukkyluciano me dont have pupkinseed

@lukkyluciano 7 лет назад

yes the uk has pumpkinseeds. Proof at 4:28 of this video

@BUSHCRAPPING 7 лет назад

they are only present in a couple o commercial lakes and 1 canal i believe. large parts of this video are filmed in tanks

@lukkyluciano 7 лет назад

they are in sussex

@peterbrewer1822 6 лет назад

Very nice film. But rainbow trout are not native to British waters. They don't reproduce in the wild. They do in the US.

@JackPWMedia 6 лет назад

not native but present in many uk rivers and do breed in the derbyshire wye, look it up

@Archaelleon 7 лет назад

3:03 bottom right... is that a freshwater hermit crab?

@JackPWMedia 7 лет назад

Its a caddisfly larvea

@eddyvideostar 5 лет назад

Ironically, the greatest aspect of many things not just in fishing, but in life, is the possible unattainabiity aspect, but now, with the high-technology tools, the underwater cameras, actually seeing the fish there, must take away the anticipation and even the joy of catching a fish. Just throw you line down here and pull them up. Isn't there something missing here?

@tingw6504 5 лет назад

7.40 Oh no

@fishmansf4573 6 лет назад

In minnesota we call zander walleye.

@apozki9773 6 лет назад

They're related but a different species.

@fishmansf4573 6 лет назад

apozki FIN oh.

@anthonywhitehouse2295 5 лет назад

Is the zander a British fish ?

@JackPWMedia 5 лет назад

introduced but is widespread in britain.

@anthonywhitehouse2295 5 лет назад

Jack Perks Wildlife Media so its not a British fish, its a invasive fish just as I thought.great video thought

@JackPWMedia 5 лет назад

thats right though I've included fish people might encounter in Britain (as it says in description)

@ianbaker1279 Год назад

Liked your videos, but almost a third were invasive species.but keep it up .

@Jeff-ik9zj 6 лет назад

Ey mate do you maybe have a list of all dutch species?

@JackPWMedia 6 лет назад

I don't haven't got the european fish yet

@oliwatson3959 4 года назад

Shame to have seen a Stella can around 3:20

@olivergaming-en3vt 7 лет назад

we dont have grass carp do we

@amazingaquaticsandexotics3030 Год назад

@michaelpreston2619 6 лет назад

Anybody know what fish is at 1:32 the one looking at the camera

@JackPWMedia 6 лет назад

golden tench

@michaelpreston2619 6 лет назад

Jack Perks Wildlife Media thanks

@fishmansf4573 6 лет назад

Looks like a koi.

@Populiervogel 6 лет назад

No Tench, just a released Koi, a Tench has smaller barbs at the corners of the mouth.

And you would thumb's-down why?

@jmy7622 6 лет назад

Goldfish????? Give me a break ,they would arrest you here for putting them in or using as bait

@cliffdixon6422 3 года назад

We have some in the Grand Union Canal where I live, people have let them go (Probably unwanted pets). I even caught a small American Catfish in there some years ago whilst fishing on the bottom for Bream!
