Beautiful video. I'm an angler, and often get asked "Why do you fish, if you just put them back?"...This is why
this guy is actually a legend, spent my hole life fishing the rivers... n now i know whats occurin down bellow ahaha
w
Can't thank you enough for this. Incredible work!
This, this is what we need more of. People don’t appreciate the native fish in an area and showcasing them like this brings more attention to these beautiful animals. Thank you for doing this project, you are amazing 💙
I’m not from the UK, And several species shown here are invasive to the US. It’s really nice to see the native habitat for these animals
A job well done, Jack. I'll keep this video to calm me for when the world is getting up my nose.
Brilliant work Jack. As an angler, its astounding to see just how many species actually exist in UK waters. Thanks. :)
Yes we should be taking care of these brilliant UK fish species in both fesh and salt water :)
most are invasive
Well done what an achievement, brilliant watch 👍👍👍
+1
Brilliant. I'm a freshwater angler, love it, well done.
Good to see there are still some large shoals….. thanks 😊
Ayup mate I spoke to you earlier today at Idle Valley Nature Reserve, I've just checked out some of your vids on You Tube. Very impressed, I immediately subscribed. Amazing quality, keep up the good work.
Nice one cheers!
Awesome footage!
European sturgeon! A quick google tells me they’re more endangered than the black rhino!
uk was offered some stock from andalucian rivers and western french rivers that big one in bordeux these fish were supposed to be stocked to wye seven and now these days they could stock to humber ouse trent rivers..the reason why the uk declined is that removal of dams and weirs is a costly thing and constructing fish passes for fish that dont leap their way up river like salmon also small fortunes so if they did stock strugeon and spend money this would then enable shads both speacies and all freshwater breeding mullets to migrate up rivers ....but they didnt do it
But not the white rhino ☹︎
@@skunkhead2007 You know you’re stuff !
Fantastic! Thank you for sharing it with us Jack. 😀😀😀
This is absolutely wonderful you have given something here to the world. Thank you.
What an amazing achievement Jack well done, great to see all these fish in their natural habitat 👍
Enjoyed watching this video and certainly will watch it again. It is very educational and well-filmed. Bravo!!!
Phenomenal achievement Jack. Just outstanding. Paul.
Greatest work Jack. Thanks for posting here🤩👍
So many fishing memories came back to me watching this video..! Thank you! 👏🏼
This is Fabulous - Thank you and the Music composer -So very much
This is fantastic. You must have brilliant patience
Fantastic Sir, Thankyou✌. I'm glad I Googled before commenting. Well researched👏👏👏👏
This is an unbelievable piece of work
Fantastic video, thanks.
Love seeing this peaceful underwater footage😍
Beautiful, many thanks
Wow mate that's an incredible video you have made here much respect for the amount of dedication it must of been in 7 years 👏 👍
Astonishing piece of work. Really well put together, with so many fish that most of us would missed. Your work has become the definitive guide to the freshwater fish environs. Unfortunately, here in Ireland, we are starting to see some Pacific Pink Salmon on the west coast rivers, apparently coming down from Norway. If they get to Scotland you may have another one to add to your collection. Brilliant, Brilliant work Jack.
Yes I was told about the pink salmon have they turned up this year?
Nice one Jack,I had never even heard of some of these let alone seem them,brilliant.
This is really beautiful footage, great compilation
Kudos from the netherlands
Great work. What dedication!
Thank you for make it this .... so relaxing!
Excellent work Jack.
Incrdible, to get all those in 7 years you have been very VERY lucky, amazing work.
you should get so much more love for this 7 years wow
good job man, beautiful work
Wonderful achievement. I am sure that I will watch this many times. Interesting that the scientific name for chub has changed in recent years. The sun bleak is a species that I had not even heard of. I presume that they are relatively new to UK waters. I also presume that the migratory houting is now considered extinct in UK waters (I know it was critically endangered the last time I checked). My old 'PG Tips' teacards book of freshwater fish (1950s) also listed the two American species of black bass (large and small mouthed) as introductions, but I have never heard of any being seen or caught, so I guess that they failed to breed successfully and died out (like the huchen that were supposedly introduced to the Thames about a century ago).
Yes chub has changed not sure when, erm sunbleak have been around a few years mostly in somerset. houting yes they are long gone now. as for the two american bass I think they died out in the 50s/60s. interesting to know they tried to huchen in the thames!
@@Chasingscalesspecieshunt Thanks for the prompt and informative reply. I have read a few references, in old books, to the stocking of huchen in the Thames (mainly in John Bailey's books). The Victorians and Edwardians loved to move species around (and they also loved to split species to create 'new' ones!). I have just found a fascinating film on RUclips about the last ditch efforts (in Denmark) to save the houting from extinction. Only seen the first five minutes so far, but I think they estimate that there are about 7000 left. So, there is still time to save the species, if only the habitat can be improved (never easy with migratory species, of course). If the allis shad is managing to hang on in UK rivers, hopefully, the fortunes of the houting can be reversed in northern Europe. It is a beautiful species.
Fantastic piece of work.
This is amazing, good job
Fascinating, thank you.
Thanks dude this is really vaulble info.
Can't wait to watch this, you should make an Instagram, you must have loads of marvellous photos!

Some effort and dedication that mate
This is amazing!
Stunning.
Thank you
This was amazingly done. Mental how Ireland is right beside The uk and we don't have many of the fish in this video. I'd love if someone did this for Ireland too. Beautiful vid
Saw your work on Springwatch 2019 - absolutely bowled over - live just across the road from Dorset Stour, and would love to see it from your viewpoint
Awesome achievement!
so so incredible!
Amasing.Realy like to see this vidio.Is doesn't fell like it's finished.watching it.what realy good work.Realy insh the underwater wiew...
Thanks 🙏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻
great work
Special thanks for providing Latin fish names to an international audience!
Yes I thought that would be a good idea no worries!
Great video as the next generation of Pokemon is based in the UK. This feels very fitting as if the creator went off to fill his PokeDex with all the UK fresh water fish.
Bravo good sir, Professor Oak would be proud as am I.
had no idea we had fresh water bass!
its the same species we get in the sea just can enter freshwater
Incredible 👍
Absolute bliss!
good👍 job..great...nice video..
Amazing work, congrats!!
Will you attempt to film the endemic Salvelinus you have in some of the British islands in the north?
Amazing!
Amazing
I almost cried at 13:55.
Me too, but more from sadness rather than laughter.
Brilliant
Fantastic
Very well done for getting the wild shots, impressive! What happened to no 34 and 54?
very good images, filming so many species is very complicated many of those species exist in spain greetings.
What are the brown trout attacking..bleak? minnnows?
Excellent video, I came here after seeing a write up in the I newspaper.
Small roach

I love doing a bit of fishing with my ladsize of the pike top video brother big thumbs 👍 from me and my son I do metal detecting if your ever over my way
Epic 👍
great work,enjoyed seeing some i hadn't realised were classed as freshwater. a couple of new ones too ! im puzzled as to why KOI & LEATHER CARP and other pond species are not included. not a criticism, only an observation ! great viewing with the soothing music.
Hey Graham, they weren't included as they are sub species not a separate species
We all must do all we can to protect all of these species. Our waterways are under huge environmental pressure. We already lost the Burbot.
I always thought the latin for chub was chubius lubius
Three species I've had in English waters not shown; gibel carp (now in your invasive species video but I was one of the first to get a DNA test on them here), large mouth black bass (that ship sailed long ago as the last ones in the pond died out in the early 80s but had been there since Leney stocked them in 1935), and vimba, a bream-related species that possibly was introduced with the gibels in the early 2000s.
gibel are in a new video I've done though under there other name the prussian carp. large mouth as you say no longer present and as for vimba show me a picture please!
@@Chasingscalesspecieshunt I posted a picture on the FB feed on this video.
@@MarkWintleFishing cheers Mark
uterly fantastic achievement beautiful
When you think you've caught every species but then realise you're not even halfway there :')
Great video, did you miss out on flounder though?
nope 2:12
@@Chasingscalesspecieshunt My bad, no ide\a how I missed that one 🙂
What camera did you use for the stationary shots where the camera was just sat at the bottom?
Loved your work! However I feel like some species might have been missed, could you please confirm these are all freswater fishes in UK ?
I can confirm
Very cool film thank you. Very curious to know where you managed to film a grass carp being photobombed by a sturgeon ( presumably a stocked pond ) ? Also, if you want to know where a start looking for a burbot I can help. Saw one in the 1990's up close.
Yes the grass carp was in a pond you're right, don't suppose you took any photos of it?
@@Chasingscalesspecieshunt No didn't have a camera with me but it swam up right next to me as I was sitting on the river bank. At the time I was in correspondence with Alwynne Wheeler at the Natural History Museum about it.
@@paulnatashadyson6098 ah ok there was a reintroduction attempt in the 90s so maybe one of those though it did ultimately fail
@@paulnatashadyson6098 I would love to think that the burbot has hung on somewhere, but are you certain it wasn't a sea lamprey or a stone loach?
@@portcullis5622 100% a burbot. After subsequent research it was just where you would expect one ( or maybe two ???? ) to have survived. John Langridge's new book about Burbot is a good read.
Well done Jack, really enjoyed that . Brilliant film. You've gone above and beyond by including the likes of Sunbleak and Brook Trout-2 species I had no idea existed in the UK. Interesting that the Goldfish is a still-or maybe it's just a very docile specimen🙂
yeah not many sunbleak or brookies to be fair, its a well trained goldfish!
A flounder! Yes, they occasionally go up in stream, but .. interesting!
In the early 1980s, I caught a flounder of nearly a pound in weight in the centre of York. That is 3 miles upstream of the tidal limit at Naburn and about 50 miles from the Yorkshire coast.
@@portcullis5622flounders are found very high up sttream. They beiing found near Berlin (Germany) and thats a long swim ;-) . i life in Boom(tomorowworld) and in the Rupel (fresh water river) they have beiing neted several times (source= Natuurpunt )
Where can I find the species name? Absolutely beautiful by the way
I'm working on a updated version with english and latin names!
I have a few questions
Theres a fish in lough neagh called a pollan
It says under the heading that he travelled across England, Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland is in the UK though and pollan are endemic to Ireland.
Where did you find the Vendace?
derwent water
Didnt know you could get flounder in freshwater.
Wow never seen pike spawn before
You filmed silver carp in the UK?
Are European Bass found in our rivers?
Lady of the stream??
the bass is a sea fish not to be confused with small mnouth black bass that are still listed as aa uk freshwater fish...Brook Trout are north american and are a introduced species same as rainbows,hats off to the smelts :-) they bare indeed now very rare found in i think only one or two systems in the uk...sunbleak and topmouth gudgeon also are imports to the uk....again good footage of sea lampreys ive only ever seen 5-6 of thes fish on 3 north east salmon rivers ie wear tees and main tyne .....very rare fish.....im looking at the sturgeon and thinking thats not a english type sturgeon looks more like a baltic sturgeon ...and the chances of being able to film such a rare fish in the uk well sorry im not having that one little bit....spiend loach well apart from the trent only other place is the river welland in lincs-but they is a few more locations where these fish can be found...i know now you didnt film the sturgeon and spined loach-know that for a fact...pumpkin seeds also a aquarium release the uk record once came from whessoe road pond darlington but the ponds long bbeeen filled in.....right then im not seeing sea trout,arctic chars/skelly (coregenous abula) vendace another coregon....wels catfish....eels...lampern/pink-humpbacked salmon (pacific) brown bullhead catfish and black bullhead catfish.....houting sadly now extinct and so too is the Burbot........houting sort of migratory whitefish simlar to the skellys and vendace a sort of migratory herring come grayling fish they smell same as grayling smelts etc mints cucumbery smells-burbot lotal lota only rep of freshwater cod family was once very common in rivers from the wash anglie area to i think its northely range the river wear or slight south definatley the tees as the tees was written about by izzac newton in his medivil book the complte angler he speaks of river skerne burbot being that abundant a man could walk over them with dry feet ! sligh exagertaion..........skeren is a tees river in darlington area
thanks for the review...european bass enter freshwater all the footage in this was shot in freshwater (miles inland) so they are simliar to flounder, mullet, eels and salmon that can enter both. the sturgeon is indeed a atlantic sturgeon so you can take that how you want it was from a specialist.
I think you need to watch it again as several of the species you say I've not filmed are in the film (charr, skelly or powan which is the scottish name for them, vendace, eel and lampern which is another name for river lamprey) I didn't do pink salmon as so few turn up apart from the odd recent siting and them being non native. I've included a few non natives in the film.
I'd recommend my upcoming book "The complex lives of britains freshwater fishes" might help with the I.D
@@Chasingscalesspecieshunt Yes but they spawn in the sea so that makes them a salt water fish...vendace are only now in two uk lakes in cmubria the scots populations extinct how ever bassenthwaite vendace were also thought to be extinct for ten years then a friend of mine discovered them and then a sticking programnme was under way to stock lock skene dumfries area-where they are now thriving :-) atlantic sturgon dont show that often now in the uk and some of the fish caught in the past say 50 or so years all carry a question mark as too which species they actually are-russia has many species so theys no reason why other species wouldnt come to the uk-its been that long since strugeon ran english rivers no one actually knows how many species ran back then...we talking 1200s when they were en masse here in the uk with fish being caught in yorks esk yorks ouse the ure at borobridge usk severn wye all the big rivers...so yer never know we may have had more than one species to start with...shame the gov wont restock a proper extinct fish-same goes for houtings theys a danish version which fits the bill for uk stocking how ever the e/a say that its a diff fish but i beg to differ as all salmonoids and whitefishes vary for example lake ennerdale has a river spawning population that leave the lake and spwn in the river liza YT the video wow but also the lake has a population that never goes deep and stays close to the edge and a population that stays deep same as windermemre it has deep water form very rare and southern and northern basin populations...so the danish thing isnt washing as all salmonoids and whitefishes vary accordinly....instead they insist on salmon decling when the total opposite has happend on northern rivers from the humber to the tyne--humber rivers didnt have much in the way of salmon what 20 years ago now every mortal river that flows to the ouse gets salmon last season salmon runs were good in doncaster and sheffield and the mersey had a canny run with fish entering the goyt and irwell so no one yet is able to explain how salmon are able to come back to recovering still polluted rivers but seem to be struggling on clean rivers ? doesnt add up does it? same goes for wear tees and tyne tyne and wear rated no 1 and 2 tees 16th no idea where the esk is ide say inbetween coquet and tees but way better than tees as its a tiny system but anyways declining salmon aint washing here on north east rivers in 40 years we have never ever had it so good for salmon populations which are increasing not decreasing each season-and dont throw fish counter stats at me for last season from septemnber to now was a washout so fish missed being counted as last season was a freak season for rain and the river being constantly up in summer
Jesus Christ you always get one just enjoy the video
@@stuatherton1459 video is shit like the angler.....at least explain so fools like you dont get confused etc
@@stuatherton1459 I genuinely admire this guy's enthusiasm and knowledge of British freshwater fish, but FFS, I do wish he would buy a keyboard that includes full stops, commas and a Caps lock. I was exhausted after reading his comments!
You couldnt find a Burbot?
seeing as they are most likely extinct no, but did find a stuffed one which is about as close as I'm likely to get
What about the gwynaid
I understand that it is the same species as the schelly and in Scotland it is known as the powan.

I thought that the Burbot was extinct in the U.K. although this is one time that I would love to be proved wrong
Me too!
Artic char? :(
lol what the hell is going on at 4:20 !!
like to know where the euro small mouth bass are in the uk and dont anyoe say RAF bases the BURBOT lota lota deemd extinct in 1970 but was last caught on Yorkshire derwent in the middle 1960s York AC website has it listed on their records page (Y) now the humber ouse derwent is a huge river system with a shed load of rivers flowing to the ouse alone and then it meets the trent where they both join humber now the swale runs to the ouse near myton on swale...the rivers cod beck and river wiske run to the swale now th wiske i know a farmer from masham near ripon he polughs harvests in the region and fishes he swears to me about 10-15 yrs back that he was catching a few burbot but had no idea what they were in the wiske side of A19 near east harsely somewhere...from around Northallerton the small wiske river is a bit of a mess how ever above that never ever suffered any sort of pollution which was the true cause of the demise of the burbot so you never know...they rearered some in melton mowbray college some yrs back from danish stock how ever the danish fish are supposed to carry some parrasite not so do cod they they same family so the vegans who run the e/a SAID no to restocking and ordered the fish to be killed !!!!! from a very super good source who had the pleasure of handling some of the uk reared burbot said do you seriously think that the men and women involved would kill them fish? they supposed to be in the river side of the college .....
Very interesting what you say about the burbot. I know all logic says that after 50 years, they must have gone extinct (due to pollution, breeding habitat loss and rising temperatures), but I have to say that there are long stretches of the middle and lower Yorkshire Derwent (and its main tributary the Rye) that hardly ever see an angler. Also, as the burbot feeds mainly at night, in winter and is predatory, I can't help thinking about how few anglers are fishing those stretches after dark, in winter with fish or worm baits. Virtually none, other than a few keen chub anglers like myself!
I mainly fish the middle Derwent (and the Rye and Seven), but if the burbot is hanging on, I feel it would be below the weir at Sutton on Derwent. Possibly where the Pocklington Canal meets the river and Wheldrake Ings, with its winter floods, old channel of the river and old dykes offering suitable habitat. The Ings on the Lower Derwent have changed little for centuries and these stretches are hardly, if ever, fished.
In the early 1980s, I caught a stone loach and a common lamprey on the middle river below Stamford Bridge (both these lesser known species could explain the unverified claims of burbot captures since the late 1960s). I also caught a tiny flounder at Sutton, so the river was/is capable of surprises.
Just one correction (without wishing to be a pedant). Contrary to popular opinion, the Ouse does not start where the Yore/Ure meets the Swale at Myton. It is still the Yore/Ure for several miles downstream. About half a mile downstream from Aldwark Bridge, the tiny Ouseburn Beck meets the Yore/Ure and there is a sign in the bank stating that this is the point where the Yore/Ure becomes the Ouse.
@@portcullis5622 its HUGE system ouse /humber it is almost in cumbria and all of yorkshire some parts lancs then the trent bit of the system.wiske small swale river could still hold them like you say a night feeder remote stretches of river that may not have been fished for years...stoneloach are small but we also have small burbot so yeah im getting what you saying now we have small tees trib billingham beck further up near wynyard estate the becks freshwater narrow with small deepish sections to about four five feet.....its brimmed with stoneloach and bullheads minnows sticky backs dave roach etc huge stockies borwns and rainbows now once over it was home to sea trout and salmon spawning im talking somewhere in the 20s 1920s last time thy was populations blocked by dams and pollution killed everything off the bottom end of beck is in its first few years of cleaning up,but back in the day burbot could have easily swam from native tees up that beck now in the 1980s when i was a kid other kids and adults used to say they was catching catfish always about 6-12 inches long way too big for stoneloach...........since then the beck suffered a pollution incident many years back and ive never heard any one make this claim since,,not saying they was burbot but what else could they have been? shame the e/a blocked the re stock programme and the fish breeders scientists were ordered to kill the fish now i wonder if they really killed them or released them as i know some one who has posted in a salmon forum making a claim that burbot are in some lincs river.....same lad knows two uk fisheries that still hold small mouth bass so i cant rule out what he saying......anyways
@@portcullis5622 York AC website two years ago in its record section has Burbot listed from Derwent near sutton circa 1960s record 2lbs something that was well before the barrage on the derwent so back then the tide went to sutton on derwent ...these days they drop the barrage gates for a few hours a day as the tide ebss then falls and it seems to be doing the job as rye seven pickering beck dove riccal rye etc all now get migrants of sorts be it st or salmon or both....has to be a good thing few seasons back i was on way home from metal detecting stopped at nunningtong hall looked over bridge to see 3 salmon holding under bridge pool and i know a few have been seen the weir there.......sinnington beck also gets sea trout seen some there way back in the 80s one day when we was ferreting near the trout farm small weir seen fish....they populating every stream that flows to the ouse via rye derwent catchment.......dunno if they can reach fangdale beck near chopgate but hey if they could thats a distance from the sea...and almost into middlesbrough...........
@@skunkhead2007 Thanks for the prompt and informative replies. I am currently reading two new books on burbot (John Langridge and Mark Everard). Fascinating to read about how they also became extinct in Belgium (for similar reasons) but have been successfully reintroduced. Also interesting to read how consistently low water temperature is critical for the eggs and also how they tend to breed on flooded Ings land, a habitat that has virtually disappeared in England, with the Lower Derwent Ings nature reserves being a notable exception. Of course, angling is not allowed, or is very restricted on these nature reserves and night fishing is even more restricted.
In the late 1980s, a friend and I used to do voluntary work on Wheldrake Ings and the warden told us about true wild carp that inhabited the dykes and old river course (maybe the Pocklington Canal too). Even at that time, this beautiful strain of carp (admittedly not a species) had virtually disappeared (especially in Yorkshire) with the heavy stocking of king carp all over the country. It shows that it is a special habitat.
If you read the 2010 scientific paper (online) by Worthington, it is fascinating to see that even in the early 1900s, burbot were present throughout most of the Ouse, Swale, Ure, Nidd, Wharfe, Hull, Derwent and most of its tributaries, as high up as Helmsley on the Rye.
Then there is the Esk, where virtually no coarse fishing takes place and a schoolboy claimed to have caught and returned a burbot in the mid-1990s ( 'burbot' captors/spotters never seem to have a camera)! The Esk is a definite (outside) possibility, I feel.
I have always had a soft spot for the rare, the unusual and the outsider and have been fascinated about the sad story of the English burbot since I first read about them as a child. All logic says they have all gone, but you just never know. It is impossible to prove a negative, especially with a secretive aquatic creature, so you just never know . . . .
@@portcullis5622 Esk has always been very local to me a river i know very well esp upper and tidal reaches i know most the esk its what 26 miles or so long and a stream once yer get past sleights.Esk used to have them back in the day read that some where tees had them so too skerne which i think is mentioned in complete angler where he says the most tasting burbot come from tees skerne or perhaps they was that many you could walk acorss them.....then the wear which was the last river i think north i know ghillies and water keepers one a old ex poacher from way back said he had burbot in the 60s from the wear and one or two of the old timers all said the same thing said it 40 years back but still said it :-) im all for bringing back extinct or critical species as all we ever hear is salmon this that when on the north east coast salmon are thriving and now populating every river system ....go back 20 years Ure wharfe had odd fish swale fish were a secret....now everything that flows into the ouse is getting either very good runs or ever increasing by the season runs aire even seen shed laods at beal weir and chappel haddersly bottom A19 tidal weir pool .........but its the forgoton species we need back we can even get a strain of houting a danish strain now ea says its not the original uk strain bt as with all coregon spoecies ie whitefishes they all vary from lake to lake or even vary from one end of a lake to another dividing populations into subspecies so i see no problem with danish stock would be nice to see houting in its native environment migrating with salmon trout eels and lampys flatties even..hey all we need now is some sturgeon the shads reparing and a handfull of smelts n the right rivers and we nearly back to normal ..
