What I love most about these videos is how they capture what fishing is really about.
Catching fish is just a small part of it, it's the connection with nature and admiring it's beauty and allowing yourself time to be still in this mad world. As you say... Beautiful imagery.
I was born in 63 and spent most of my childhood fishing, so this series takes me right back to those Halcyon days. After 27yrs I've just started again and loving every minute !!
I'd forgotten how much fun it is to make your own floats too.
I'm a self employed gardener and I recently found a peacock feather on the estate garden, which I took home and turned into 5 or 6 floats. The wire armour around armoured cable is galvanised and perfect for making float eyes.
I wanted to say that these movies are legend for us fishermen are poetry and the love for fishing! Many thanks to 2 great actors that I admire very much and who helped to create these masterpieces!
@fredtheredmanu duh, what you dont know about, dont comment, JW has been on the fishing scene as long as yates and james, ok matt hayes is a bit of a whippersnapper
love this episode and the autumn one great photography and sublime music.true fishing at its best,hope they make up and do another series with hugh miles a few from now best fishing programme ever made
This is how fishing programmes should be, Makes you feel like your there fishing with them, Difference between this and fishing programmes now is every fishing programme on todays television is ALWAYS trying to sell you something! Were is with this its just pure passion! :)
I absolutley love this series. I have fished since i was 11 years old, and this program made me and my friends keep on fishing. When the weather was too bad to fish we just stayed in and watched this on VHS. I would like to thank Chris and Bob for making this, because I and my friends grew up on a council estate and it is because of them ( and John Wilson!) That a LOT of car stereo's did not get nicked! You did so much to keep us on the straight and narrow! (By the way i'm 32 now!) Keep fishin!
@fredtheredmanu I know what you mean I watch all the fishing programmes, but u can close your eyes watching and listening to sir bernard cribbins narrating and it gives me you lump in my throat.. I will never get tired of watching this series :)
top class video....lives up to it's title....beautiful video production with great fishing action, going over to the Moy river ( West of Ireland) to do another fishing video this summer, my brother looks after a 2 mile stretch.
Does angling get any better than this? I think not....excellent camera work great calming music, really makes u wanna be there. Lets hope chris and bob patch up their differences and make another series.
this is a great show.talk about huge carp,we ve got them up to 45lbs in our local valley lake in mount gambier.considered a pest here but they love them over in england.great fun to catch.
Maybe the carps are clicked the dislike bar xDxDxD
