Never mind Carl. Your videos helped me get back into angling after a 20 year break and I'm sure you've inspired thousands more; Matt's a proper laugh. Great video as always.
@@fishwithcarl thanks for loving my comment I do fishing my self this is my mother's phone mine died and I'm out but my dad teaches me but I would say I'm a good beginner
Just want to say thank you! I am currently on dialysis 3 times a week I found your channel I love watching your videos and time flys in the hospital thanks pal 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Through n through carp angler but i love watching match men. Winning ways with Jamie n Andy is great, all joking aside the watercraft they teach is incredible.
This video made my Sunday morning! You guys were so funny together but what else is new? You're always funny Carl! From the shameless plug to your book (which I still need to get by the way) to catching that elusive trash fish when the boat was coming by. Thanks to you, Cal and Matt for all of the hearty laughs this morning!!
great film, loved the interview part and the banter. Im sure you picked up a few things maybe worth a short vid on what you would change if you did it again, maybe a new talkie series Cuppa with Carl where you break down a few key things from the experience.
Carl, I loved this video! All fishing is fantastic and I am sure every fisherman will agree? When I was only knee high to a grasshopper my father took me to the Grand Canal in the center of Dublin city and I caught my first roach , I was 4 years old. My passion for angling was born instantly for the love of the waters edge and the need to be by its side. My pursuit of the waters finned swimmers lead me along a path to where I found myself fly fishing and in my true element of angling. Your video with Matt caught something special for me ( Matt you are a legend!) an angler in his element and Carl (you are the embodiment of what it means to be a fisherman) so skillful in your approach bringing my thoughts back to that first ever roach ! You two were great on camera together, I reckon you should do a 24hr carp angling session competition rematch! Thank you for a super video! Tight lines and wet nets!
I've always thought of myself as an amazing fisherman, until I started competing with the pros! Those people are crazy. Seriously you cannot even comprehend how good they are until you observe them in a serious competition. Tight lines!!
As a Canadian fisherman, this style of fishing in the UK has a special charm to it. Something about perfecting still fishing has turned something simple into an art almost. Love the videos!
I'd love to see more of you interviewing Carl, you have a very natural kindness with people and this really shows when you're asking questions, you get some great responses. 12.33 is my fave ❤️
Matt needs to be in more videos epic as always mate .I’ve been a subscriber for five or six years now and these videos help me get through long commutes home from work .and make me want to fish 24/7
Great video Carl and a really great question at lunchtime. The sacrifices made to be a match fisherman. They are enormous and Matt underplayed that answer. The match circuit is relentless at Matts level. I'm sure he loves every minute of it but it's a fulltime job. Match fisherman aspire to get sponsorship and then when they get it they have no free time. It's a real sacrifice being a top level match fisherman.
I’ve got a suggestion where you should fish and prove to people how ace you are , Harold park , it’s a hard water because there’s only 70 ish carp in there , it’s a massive park lake but if you catch its 12 pound or plus , the fish in there go up to about 32 pound (carp ) there’s 15 pound bream and about 10 pound tench , I recon you should give it a try !
A few more videos with Matt and the Guru guys would be cracking! Video idea… he has to help coach you against another guru lad. Or… you enter a local match and Matt coaches you 😂 (great advertising for guru)
I match fished for a few years in the 80's, a couple of decent results (Won a trophy for last match of the season with a Jack Pike boosting the weight) but it was finished for me one afternoon on the Grand Union Canal at Denham - Got an awful draw and sat there having spent £80 on entry fees, bait and the bookie scratching around for tiny Bleak, weighing in a paltry 12oz (The section was won with 1lb 8oz). I asked myself if I preferred doing that or spending a couple of quid on bait and hitting Chub on my local river - No contest. Having said that, I admire the skill of those who do it and those I fished against. Highlight was a CALPAC match on the Grand Union a week before the national championships - All the big boys turned up to get a feel for the venue before the event. I got drawn between England international Dickie Carr and USA captain Micky Thill, I fluked a big skimmer on a poor draw and beat them both (Although I only came third on the section). Apart from winning a London Youth championship qualifier when I captained Hillingdon (Another fluke, caught a Tench that weighed double the next placed team) that has to be my finest hour.
Nice one, Carl. It's nice to see you having so much fun, and he was such a nice guy you too was so funny to watch keep up the amazing work Carl and filming 🎥 😁👏👍🎣
I think im one of your biggest fans already, been watching your vids for a month and already addicted 😂 anyways, random question but when it rains could you film a vid of fishing in the rain? Know it sounds weird but its really relaxing for me. Dont want to make you go out of your way though 😂😊
Great video as always this one had me chuckling from start to finish 👏 👍 Question Carl I'm looking for one of your videos where you and Alex go zander fishing on a canal you guys catch loads and the guy your with ledgers for them using a quiver rod I can't seem to find it ?
Back in the day - John Wilson took on Dick Clegg. And won. Just saying! 😂😂 Nice fun video. Thank you. And the Ginger-Ninja is a great sport. And leg-end to boot. 👍👏👏👏👏
Dude when you write me vs a pro, you think you are not good? Then let me tell you this: you are amazing at fishing and i very like you videos, and i really enjoy watching them. And thank you for Inspiring me
@@LukesKoiChannel changing content wouldn't change upload schedule he's busy with stuff but I know what you mean but if this is a main carp channel I think they should focus it
close match (if you remove 20 pounds from one of you). i know of a basic fishing book that might come in handy; it's not written from experience catching any fish though ;p
Hi Carl sorry been away for a while. I’ve got a spot suggestion. Tatton Park,Cheshire. In Tatton mere is a 57lb 4oz common that I thought you would like the target. Love the content man. Theo
Carl I’ve been fishing a lake called at hartsholme park I’ve fished it for a year now and only had 1 bream but their is a 28 pound ghost carp I think that swims around with 2 commands and a couple of week ago a 30+ carp was pulled out so would u take the journey to fish this lake
Ive been watching your videos for years now! Ive been waiting for you to do a video with someone from the proffesional Match fishing Scene! I live in Ireland and fish matches every weekend! I was lukcy enough to Meet Steve Ringer at the World Championships a month ago! Savage Man! Need more videos like this!!!!
Oh darn. I'm literally about 20 minutes away from this location. Big fan of your channel and videos. Would have been a pleasure to meet up to just say a fond hello. Great content as always.
Buy that book its brilliant the art works outstanding and its just a great read even if you know alot of what is in it, iv just started my multi species journey after reading it after being a carp angler for so long.
@@fishwithcarl that pike though, how's your luck.. tell your cameraman I've blanked for the pike all winter as well, but I've had a few monster perch😉. Tight lines
It's a very odd feeling trying to translate in my head the styles and type of fish and fishing. Seeing those tiny fish kept as a collective weight is just really odd to me. Any competitions I've fished here in Oz would only allow you to keep a legal limit or legal sized fish unless it was a pest culling tournament (eg - summer whiting are a minimum 23cm to keep with a per person bag of 30, but tilapia/carp have no size or bag limit due to their pest status). Looks like you guys had fun though.
What a character Matt is 😂 so positive! Have him back on sometime!
Definitely :)
"Alex would never have cheated" 😂😂😂 Pure aces!
😂 Glad you enjoyed! Thank you so much, sooo kind.
Hahahahahahahahahaha it's funny cause it's totally not true xD
@@fishwithcarl didnt Alex cheat in that Barbel session? When you were asleep? 😂
@@fishwithcarl 😢
He did actually! You're right! Hahah
Great video Carl, Matt is such a comedian and great angler credit to fishing and guru

Another great fishing video from Carl. The competition was tense and you didn't blank! 🤣🤣🤣 Seriously though, a really fun video. Thanks. 👍
You definitely need too get him on the channel. Matt is just great and funny!

I'm a northerner and pie sandwiches sound lovely.
Round here in Sheffield we still greet with "ey up" - you should visit a fishery up this way 👍
0:44 that guy was giving you s*** haha awesome video always interesting to see how professional comp anglers fish vs recreational/casual anglers.
Such a great watch Carl 👍 I think everyone would like more of this fishing. All very interesting Too .
A few more videos with Matt and the Guru guys would be cracking! Video idea… he has to help coach you against another guru lad. Or… you enter a local match and Matt coaches you 😂 (great advertising for guru)
Amazing video mate keep up the good work i started watched your videos like 5 years ago and the videos keep getting better and better 😀😀😀
Thank you mate! So glad you're enjoying the channel! :)
What size hook should I use when freelining for carp around 10 to 20 pound?
Met Matt once at a local fishery. I didn't know he was famous until i got home. he was so nice to me , giving tips and advice. a real nice guy
Ahh that's cool to hear :) such a lovely guy!
this combo is golden
Awesome video! Was that your pb frozen roach?😅
Yes hahahah 😁 I've actually had far bigger from other tackle shops
I remember being taught how to catch fish on a pole. Very fun!
Didn’t think I’d enjoy this, not a match fishing fan at all.
That was a really good laugh to watch
Great video, Matt is a class act.

Oh my god I spat my coffee everywhere when Carl said a fish hasn’t even farted near the float haha pure class😂
😂
Love your videos so much I’m fishing right now!! Good luck with your fishing Carl!! ❤️😊
please do more videos with this guy 😂😂
👀thanks for the video Carl, looking forward to.., and a warm one sounds nice Matt
Great video Carl! Keep up the amazing work ! I’m in Cornwall and catching small carp at the moment! Have a good bank holiday!
Thanks so much Max! Ah lovely, have fun :) You too!
Bloke is a good laugh!
It’s not about the fish..
Great company is the key!
Agreed!
Matt was really funny Carl ,I was amazed that he landed a pike on that rig! Great video!
I know right 😂 Cheers Bill!
Nice work gents, Matt does a podcast which is well worth a listen too, it’s on the guru fishing channel 🎣
When Matt said I’m not sure if it’s because I’m ginger 🤣. Made me piss when he noticed the frozen roach 🧐😂
😂
Great video chaps. Matt is such a sound guy 🐟
Thank you mate! He's a legend :)
Don't worry Carl, it's the taking part that counts 😂
hahhaah

Question Carl I'm looking for one of your videos where you and Alex go zander fishing on a canal you guys catch loads and the guy your with ledgers for them using a quiver rod I can't seem to find it ?
A lot of older videos were taken down due to changes in copyright rules (I think due to music)

That's was mint, matts a character, you ain't sponsored by guru if ya crap😉
Hi Carl, great video! Please do more koi videos like maintenance of your pond, and maybe a new series of touring other Koi ponds
That would be a idea but as a carp channel I feel he's been lacking on the big ones a bit

I love all kinds of fishing, it's not just a carp channel :) I try to keep a balance!
My day is always better when there’s a fishing with Carl video 🎣
Amazing balls

Steak and kidney canal 😂😂 brilliant.
And, thats, why match pleasure anglers, use keep nets, on rivers. To stop spooking the shoal.

When will you be going for carp? I've had 7 this year only been fishing 3 times!
7 fish in 3 sessions...what are you doing wrong? Sounds like you need to read Carl's book.😂
