Avoid private rental property’s on Holborn lake Cotswold lakeside lodge shocking damp , filthy dirty , no cleaning done at end of life lodge rotton

We filmed a otter this evening in the little finger bay near restaurant unreal

Fishing here on Holborn lake and yes fish dead on opp bank where river is and fresh otter paw marks going into lake . No wonder they are held up in shallow out of bounds area and not moving around 3 days in and one single bleep

Used to love your content , but I have had to stop watching it. The constant loud, irritable music over the top of your videos is just too much. Please get rid of the music and carry on talking and sharing your knowledge instead

What do you mean put 500lb chalk in there

What do you do with the silverfish afterwards, doesn't look like you're going to kill them.

Ive heard the best people to use to net your lake are eastern Europeans. Apparently, they can clean out a medium sized water in a couple of hours.

Now it seems to me, that a lot of fisheries, are becoming “ Camp out/ Carp” fishing lakes…I don’t understand the logic behind it…Bream seem to be taken on boilies….and the same for big Roach…..why is this fascination on big Carp?….just saying

My comment wasn’t intended as a criticism. You’re doing a fantastic job with your fishery. Bravo sir.

Don’t understand the fascination with carp. I’d much rather have a mixed silvers fishery. Each to his own.

remember fihing there back in the 70,s great roach and tench fishing

Awesome Ben! Good job!

What's the deal with you guys doing nettings for people? We have had our local club net our lake last few years to remove unwanted fish but its never been very prolific and dosent make a dent.

Another great video into the insight to fishery management.

Netted a few lakes last one a big mill lodge ,,,after we netted the carp out next 12 hrs all the fished died ,we had disturbed the silt mud and it had clogged there gills all dead u gotta know what u are doing 😮

A part of my carp fishing history. Fished it late 70's early 80's with now past friends Jon Burrows and Andy Short BCSG members. Guest appearance by Kevin Maddocks on a couple of occasions. Good times and a lovely lake, would be nice to revisit one day.

I've been watching yours netting clips for a long time and I come to conclusion - why fishery owners in UK don't stock their ponds with a solid numbers of perch, pikes or catfish to control all the silvers? I'm aware of pike or catfish might be a threat to smaller or even medium carp but perch seems to be just perfect for this job.

What about the carp?

Brilliant content am letting people no about your pellets and nutrapel I've had the second busiest year at my lake since using your products so will be deffo better putting an order in the early spring. Thank you. 🐟🎣

Agree 100% on ecosystem approach. Just look to the experts of carp farming, the Chinese. They have learnt over the centuries best practice. They stock with exactly that in mind when stocking ponds for fish growth. Intervention is important as every intervention is about optimising the ecosystem for optimum growth.

Silverlands Syndicate is being netted in the winter. Will you be allowed to vlog that?

Farmers make great fishery owners😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Great video 👌

Another great video, what happens to all the Rudd?

Inspiring stuff from Neil! Great watch as always Ben. 👍

Great video, awful guitars.

Mega video, keep them coming please 👌

Great video Ben & so good to see the passionate people all involved.

12:33 People who have never worked with livestock often fail to realise that a bit of measured heavy-handedness is often the safest way to deal with an animal for both parties. Sure it doesn't look great but it causes less stress and less harm than you might cause trying to mollycoddle every single creature of the hundreds you've got to deal with.

This video and explanation was fantastic, well done 👏🏻

I changed feed to bp milling this year cause my fish stopped growing, they put in 5lb this year. Had our 1st 30

We have booked AE fisheries to do this work on our club water in Feb 2025

Hello mate, came across your channel and binge watching your vids 😉 Although I'm just a normal carp angler I've always been interested in how things work and my dream would be to have my own lake (as many others would lol). One thing's for sure if that dream was to ever become a reality I'd be getting in touch with you to be my consultant 😁👍🏻 Keep up the great work mate love it

love these videos of the insight of fishery management wish they were longer

A great watch as always Ben. 👍🤓

Looking forward to fishing it next year

Happy you let them go, magnificent predators

Do people in UK eat carp fish?

well this work if all fish type

Yay! Thanks!

We're currently experiencing a massive filamentous algae bloom. Nitrite is around 0.5ppm and nitrate is around 10mg/l, trace of phospate, it's an old estate pond but it's gone from clear and weedy to weedy, a bit murky and suffering with masses of filamentous algae/blanket weed over the last 4 years. I have a feeling we're getting runoff from the fields but I need some heavy rain to analyse the inflow, scary times, not really sure what to do except keep trying to skim the crust off (we're creating plant filter beds on the inflows, trying to divert the suspected runoff, clearing lilies and surrounding trees where possible)

Carp are the problem. They are bot ment to be here and their greed and the fisheries single minded approach drives native species out. Its no longer a ecosystem and offers nothing to the natural world

Fisheries have a lot to answer for. Both match and specimen. The latter eridicates all other species and ecosystems for the benefit of what is essentially a invasive species. I look at you average carp fishery and just see a once healthy ecosystem that has been systematically turned into a mono culture. Even the water is blue, might as well be sitting by your bath.

Beauties

About time one of you boys came out and said it out loud I fished a lake down here in Norfolk had over 70 carp in a day up to ten pounds and every one of them looked like skeletons it was distressing to see they were so hungry and Ill looking. I won’t be going back there

Wich carp book you recomend for learning about carp feeding and nutrients?tnx🎉

Well said. Stop stocking carp. Stick with silvers. A match winning weight of 20lbs should be the aim. 100lbs and 200 lbs of tame carp that are caught three times a week is, quite simply, obscene.

What a fantastic strain of carp, did you get any history from the zoo?, they are very special. Subscribed

Big Brand ‘fishmeals’ don’t contain a lot of fishmeal!😳

I gave up match fishing when it all went over to these holes in the late 90s. They’re horrible .
