hi steve,me and a friend took the 3 hours journey to fenland a few weeks back,after watching your videos we thought what the hell.we could of gone the usual Bluebell,linear etc but we liked the look of willow. I had a cracking session fishing peg 20 taking 5 carp to 21,3 and 5 cats to 26 well please with the session as i'd never caught a cat previous.we will definately be going back later in the year. thanks again steve and also mike oh and we met a terrific bloke called brian(CAPTAIN) thanks
not been fishing for a couple of years but this is a nice reminder of why I loved it so much for 15 years. fantastic, charismatic presentation....tight lines my friend :)
hiya cc,I order some goldfish bollies which you use to go to france fishing last week,only been fishing about a year and caught my 1st 20lb er on them!cheers mate,me and my uncle robin are big fans!!
Beautiful fish, Great video., again! Great to see people who care as much about the fish's health as about catching them. I think in the states that is the single hardest point to get across to people during my workshops/derbies, that the carp is not only worthy of fishing for but worthy of our respect.
Most days when I'm fishing people stop by and ask what I'm catching, I say " got into a few, 15 or so pounds.."
Nice one! Good fish that, I like yer mates use of Propolis (you couldnt pronounce it) :-) Its a natural product that is secreted by Honey Bees to seal up drafts and the like in their hives. It has excellant antiseptic properties and ideal for the fish, 1st time i've seen it used in the angling world. And sausages again... Nowt but a varied diet eh??!!
What you said about not pushing yourself when your with company, if this is what you consider not pushing the usual high standards then god help the 40's in that lake.
complimenti ragazzi! Hahhaha

I know you have delkims now but what were the Fox ultrons like ... Any good ? =]
eastonmackay 2 years ago
They were as good as the delkims and cost £80 less each to buy than delkims.
AND they gave you a nice one-toner sound when they went off
Unlike the delkims which make an awful two-tone warbbling racket!!!
Hate em and am getting rid on ebay i think....
Delkims are a rip off as far as i am concerned and your just paying for features that you dont need and a name........

Nice blog there fella remineds me of why we go.
I remember when i was a very little kid i used to sneak out of the house to go night fishing.
Totally unprepared i simply took a rod/tin of worms, jam butty and a blanket!
Crazy!
I am still just as driven and love the wonderous adventure just as much, but i am a little more prepared now!
Tight lines buddy.

Good stuff lads pleased you had a good time.
Brain (if we are thinking of the same east end cockney) is one of the old syndicate fellas and is a diamond.
In fact they are alll good lads and i did enjoy willow i have to say.
Mike the owner is a top fellow and a carper so the place is run sweet.

Your doing a good job it will take time though.
Most anglers in this country thought that the carp was uncatchable 50 years ago.
Evolution works, carp will take over:)

Get your fishery manager to give Gary or Mike a ring at Premium we have lots! and they are growing biger and biger every day:)

vtwinlunatic 2 years ago
In our defence!:)
Both gary and I need to wear glasses to read so that is why we could not read the label.
Propolis is available from me for £10/bottle if you want some.
It will be up on the premium carp fishing website today.
Sausages yes but! different flavour sausages tho:)
TheCarpCatcher 2 years ago
Now thats what its all about!
What you said about not pushing yourself when your with company, if this is what you consider not pushing the usual high standards then god help the 40's in that lake.
Another outstanding blog.
ninelives9999 2 years ago
ahhh but i was back on my own by then as gary vacated that swim eh.
I spent at least 1 1/2 hours just using the smartcast and a light lead finding the precise area to place my bait.
THAT made ALL the difference in the world.
The orig big mirror has been out and it's consistantly 37lb+ so I think we will have to wait for one of the Premium Carp to hit 40.
The Spacehopper I had at 36.2 will be a 40 soon enough tho:)
