I’m not a fisher , couldn’t be less interested…BUT my most favourite program ever is Gone Fishing. It makes my heart fill with happiness and I’ve shed an odd tear too . Keep it up boys your fab ☺️
Nice comment Lisa, and I totally agree with what you have said.
Same
John was my first form teacher in high school in Norwich. Lovely chap.
Please do more of these short tutorials. I love the show but this was a bonus.
I´ve read articles from John Bailey as a kid in the early 90s... he´s one of my heroes when it comes to fishing :)
You guys make my life worthwhile, thanks chaps
My wife had a heart attack quite a few years ago ago , she recovered back to good health but she suffered panic attacks after , so I took her fishing , it was the best thing I could of done , she relaxed completely ,sat in beautiful surroundings ,with nature all around her , trouble is I can’t get rid of her now lol
😂
One of my local clubs offers a yearbook for non-fishing guests, for a token charge of one pence. What a lovely idea. I do hope that nobody tells my wife.
treasure your time with her, life is so fragile
@@liamhemmings9039 Not for me...the rocks are too slippy. I will leave you to it while I sit on the bank!
Haaaaa Glad she's OK
I was lucky enough to have JB teach me history in the 1980s in Norwich. As a non-fisher person I found this video very interesting and informative without being patronising. Thanks!
You are the best, and make us laugh so much. My husband loves fishing and is going through some major health issues so thank you for brightening his life x
Same. Hope he manages some time on the bank doing what he loves.
@@jonfisher9214 Hi Jon, thanks, I managed to get him out a couple of times, no bites but great relaxation 😀.
These guys are brightening many lives in this strange time, mine included. Best wishes to your husband.
@@rabmcleod3508 Hi Rab, absolutely, thank you 😊
More of this please! One of the best programmes on TV, just so relaxing to watch. The fishing tips and techniques in this clip are a real bonus.
Just lovely stuff, and........relax 🎣😊
Brilliant. Thank you for explaining proper and simple fishing.
Probably one of the best things on TV right now. Thanks for your time.
JB is an absolute hero.
Recently found two books by Mr Bailey,
Roach, the Gentle Giant
Perch, Contemporary days and ways.
Forgot i had them and was fantastic to read through, although perhaps not as thrilled to find out they are both written 35 years ago! Has a very easy way does Mr Bailey in the way he writes and explains fishing. Up there with John Wilson as the top " simple" angler of the last few generations. You get the impression he'd be mortified by Helicopter rigs, Spods, and Christ alone knows what else.
Great bloke.
Wish my dad could have explained it as well , cheer fellas and please do more like this. Sharing basic´s opens the door for beginner´s. again cheers
Bob and Paul been a fan of the both of you since Big Night Out and The Fast Show. Gone Fishing is our family TV highlight of the weeks. Thanks for all the laughs. Cheers.x
So glad of these, what a beautiful and relaxing explanation. 👏
Great more please . Nice to see John getting public recognition for the part he plays in Bob & Paul great show.
This is brilliant. As has been all 4 series. Feel very lucky to have these guys on our screens - JB is an advisor.
Great video for me! I have returned to fishing after a 30 year gap. Really instructive and helpful. Many thanks.
Excellent tutorial, more John in the future.
This was so informative, really interesting and just thoroughly enjoyable. Really looking forward to seeing some more. Thanks and all the best
Great video, thanks.
I am just getting back into fishing, after 40 years or so and seem to have forgotten so much!
Also nice watch, well worn Mr Bailey.
Great videos boys, I haven't watched them all yet, but could you mention about needing rod license's and the costs as well as the restriction on amount of rods and types of fish you are allowed to catch, plus the cost of day tickets, I wouldn't like to see any one have their tackle and now their vehicle if the Bailiff catches them, tight lines boys " And away ".
Would absolutely love if they made more videos teaching about fishing. Especially if bob was involved, however he does make everything more chaotic. I love gone fishing for the sharing of memories, philosophies and how Paul is such an experienced angler and Bob is such a comedic beginner.
Used to flyfish some years ago, would love to go fishing with these two. Flippin hilarius
Top marks, great video chaps! I hope these vids inspire more people to take up the art of angling ❤️
Found this video so helpful, shared in simple plain language for folks of all ages and abilities to encourage the joys and benefits of fishing in the great outdoors. Really looking forward to seeing a version about fly fishing, particularly euro/nymphing on rivers for wild brown trout. Thanks, John and Paul, best wishes
Whitehouse losing his sh*t whenever Bob gets it arse about face is a precise reflection as to why my dad won't let me come fishing with him anymore 😂💗
"Dad, dad... its in the tree again"
*the old man just glares even harder at his float and ignores me * lol
The impersonation that Paul does of someone who doesn't know how to fight a fish is hilarious. And very accurate!
Always could buy casters in pint bags Down South . Mr Bailey, you are fishing legend
Good video where is Bob "DON'T WIND" Mortimer on this lesson.😊
what a well presented tutorial fellas 👍🏻
I've been trying to get into fishing for ages, with your help it might actually happen.
Here, where I live, you do see quite a lot of women enjoying fishing. But they are always with their husbands. It's hard to start when you haven't had your dad explaining you the basics and pretty scary to be on your own, trying to grasp what is happening with your rod or why nothing is happening at all. It's hard, but I'll get there. :)
If my memory serves, the UK record for a fly caught salmon is held by a woman. Go for it.
Plenty of how to videos of fishing on you tube . Go for it . It’s great to be around a lake wether your catching or not . It’s called fishing not catching .
@@tufty7026 Ms Ballantyne, 64 lbs maybe?? From memory? One that will never be beaten sadly. (the salmon obviously)
2 Legends and a first class Ghillie✌
I loved his book trout at ten thousand feet
Hope you keep on with the traditional fishing theme Paul. Seems the kind of idea that will build up over time. A bit like an aga... It´s a bugger to light, and for a while you're not sure if it has lit...But when it´s eventually going it has the potential, like Mortimer, to set the whole street on fire.
So wholesome - thanks so much!
I subscribed, so cheer up Bob. :) I found this episode interesting, would be good if you did more of these. Perhaps just before each show on the telly there could be a mini 10 min show explaining the tips and tricks used to catch the fish that you are aiming to catch in the main show? Followed up by another mini show after the main one with Bob's cooking tips and tricks for the heart healthy meal's he cooked.
thankyou for this very informative :)
The most important thing for novice anglers to learn, is respect. Respect the environment, respect the fish, respect the laws and fishery rules, and respect other anglers. I think the biggest mistake that new anglers make, is that they go to commercial carp lakes and try to catch big fish on day one. You'll get far more out of the experience if you start small. Learn the basics of watercraft on a local canal, natural lake or river. Anyone can catch from an artificially stocked lake. It's shooting fish in a barrel, and that's cheating yourself, and will get boring very quickly...
And put your rubbish in the bin, don't leave it on the bank.
And plumb the depth.
Make you right Brian. Four years ago aged 66 I finally realised how great fishing is. I did try it aged 10 and it felt so boring back then. Initially brought Carp gear from an Angling shop but buying more gear from another the dealer mentioned that he preferred fishing for Silver fish etc as it had taught him watercraft as a youngster. That comment made me buy some more gear as given my in experience I have less chance of damaging a small fish rather than struggling with a big one. Sadly and your know this anyway but as a kid I would have been able to go to many more local rivers & Lakes than I can today as most are now owned by angling clubs. Over the last four years I would love to to tell you I have caught baskets of fish but I can't as I seem to spend most of my time untangling because of the reel or getting caught up in trees but I still love it though. Just wished my eyes were better given all of the knots I am trying to learn to tie.
Brilliant!!✔
Best thing I've ever subscribed to.
What a fantastic video. Nuf said.
ace thanks. still struggle with the nottingham, John made it look so easy i think i'll keep trying. And away...
I look forward to the additional material footage when it's explained how Bob has driven the series with his comic genius... and patience.
Nice Rolex.
Subscribed Bob 😉
I've been using my dads old centrepin from around the 1930's to fish for carp in the margins. It's a whole other level of feeling connected to a fish. Also no line twist like you get on a fixed spool and a fish takes you on a long run.
Love fishing with a floating crust and the pin...Too many big ones my Dam match rod, led to a tragic end...The middle section developed a lateral split.
What fun though...
@@peterream9437 always good to have an excuse to buy more gear?
I live in New Zealand and miss course fishing. Gone Fishing has rekindled my love for it. Unfortunately it's not practiced here as the species available in Britain are considered pests here. Only Trout and Salmon here :-(
I will always treasure my memories of trotting a stick float for trout down a slow glide on the river Cocker in Cumbria. Holding back the float momentarily to let the bait rise watching and for hoping for a take from a wild brown trout. Absolute heaven 🍺
I was brought up on stick float and centre pin on Trent and Yorkshire rivers, if I could do only one method it would be that...alas I don't get to do it nowadays. I still have my centre pin and a genuine Tommy Pickering stick float rod which actually belonged to him once....it may be coming out for a session in the future.
I'm sure stick float and centre pin is illegal these days, its probably "method rubber jig pellet" only now.
I've never kept up with all these new fancy gadgets and bits of tech. My favourite way to fish is exactly as they showed - find a nice spot, bait it up, do some trotting. Change to a diferent spot if there's no bites. Minimal gear, maximum mobility, maximum fun.
I used to be quite handy back in the day on the canals as a teen in the 80's, locking horns with Messrs Makin and Ashurst, now I feel like Mr Crabtree if I dare go fishing.....
Very good
I used and still do a ABU 501 closed face reel for my trotting.
I saved my pocket money for weeks to purchase a Speedia centrepin reel from Kirkgate Anglers Leeds, 39/11, and I still use it! Possibly worth £60 now!
I grew up using a fixed spool and never use the clutch. Backwind and sometimes let go.
This was wonderful. What kind of centrepin reel is that?
I started out with fixed spool / baitrunners reels. and then later got into centrepins for river trotting and then for lake fishing too...even freelining and light ledgering for big carp which is so much fun....as feeling every tug and lunge with your thumb on the rim.... is so direct it's very addictive.
Love the TV show lads only bug bear should be at least an hour! Just subbed.👌👍👍
i wish someone would upload the "tales from the riverbank" series from the bbc, featured john bailey in an episode, was made round the sametime as the fast show
Booked for the show in Birmingham 12th Nov 2023.... 👍👍😃😃😃
I wonder what lhe legend Bob ,thinks about this 🤔 🥴🥴🤭🤭🤣🤣 just brilliant 👏 😀
I would “Trott” with an original Mitchel Match reel, it wasn’t until I was older, I could afford a centre pin . 👍🏻🎣
No, you would "trot" not "trott"
Ah, marvellous.... Say no more
Seam or crease? Love the show, thanks.
either or...
Hey John you've got your wellies on the wrong feet 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Ha, I’ve used casters as a kid, now I feel old.
Which is fine btw.
My granddad taught me, I just called ‘em maggots.
Haha, I’ve only ever used a fixed spool also. Again, had no idea what it was called. I’m old Skool hehe.
My history teacher. 1975 to 1980 Sprowston High.
Remember Chekhov? Allcock and Buller was my limit.
And away!!!!!😁👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Poor Bob, he always gets told off , even when he's not present...
Liked and subscribed 🦅🎣
When Bob stop goofing around, he really can explain fishing nicely.
He probably can but not in this video. It's Paul & John Bailey doing the explaining.
What is this reel and rod brands and sizes? 😊
Think I might take up fishing because of you two balm pots 🤣🤣
Can I ask why you don’t promote the use of an unhooking mat on Mortimer and Whitehouse, it’s an excellent programme but I cringe that no unhooking mat is used
This is 5-Star telly
Yeah more of this, been fishing 40 years now and never trotted with a centrepin.
Seem = Eddy line ;)
Be fun to hook a barb on a centrepin reel
Fishing is free therapy. It should be prescribed on the NHS
Closed face reels?
JB, Norfolks finest.
How can a piece of sweetcorn "behave unnaturally"?! LOL
Series 3 episode 4 8.39 rainbow trout not brown..
scorchio
A gentleman who thinks using the best of gear is the way to go , £200 wellingtons is a start .
Trot a worm or maggot will catch ye a fish .
The best tip ever is always to try and fish next to a river or stream and not a Fishmonger's
Bob's away cooking some "eart ealthy food"
Aaaaaaaaand awaaaaaaaaaaay.
💜💜💜👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Bloody center pins
I prefer a pathos pudding to a click bait
Bob, don't whine .............pity subscription to stop the old dear from whining 😎
After struggling with the concept of fishing for years, I discovered a new foolproof method. I toss in a bundle of dynamite, and pick off the survivors with a 12 Gauge.
Love this program but after 6 series the advisors still not taught Bob how to cast, hold a rod or play a fish properly 😂 😂. I find Bailey a better journalist and writer than he is an angler. Jack of some trades but master of none. Their co-authored book ‘how we fish’ recommends approaches so dated they’re actually now seen as potentially harmful to fish. Seek other more available expertise for beginners, especially TH-cam or local angling shops.
That's harsh
Episodes of gone fishing brilliant only thing to improve them is make them l hour programs great to see John Bailey and his common sense tips
Live in Norfolk and loved when you did potter heigham as with all the othe locations... only one complaint half an hour isn't long enough. Nice to see John bailey and I miss Mr Wilson on tv...you two are utter gems..
