How much have you spent on bait? You must have 5/6 different kind of pellets! Fishing is meant to be not only enjoyable but also affordable. I can't stand these videos where the expert is recommending so many different pellets to use. Ridiculous
@@TomLong-du7zz For some reason every carp angler nowadays wants to have 4/5 different pellets in PVA bags then a goo to squirt inside for what apparently is another attractor....it's like where do you draw the line on overkill! Surely you can see as Westy is loading the PVA bags with different kinds of pellets then a goo.....these bags and special goos add up massively, especially when using so many together. And trust me having two rods out for a session using pellets in a PVA like that they will not last 3/4 sessions. It's just an observation I've seen as of late with so many carpers throwing so much different food at these carp fishing is becoming more about how much you can throw in than what you may catch.
@@WestysAngling I would love to see Carp fishing simplified again without the use of so many different pellets and goo being used all the time. There are people starting their fishing adventures and are new to the sport and to see Anglers pushing so many different variations of filling a PVA bag with 3/4 different pellets then a goo it's like ....why so much? Carp fishing is becoming more expensive than it needs to be sometimes and I'm sure people new to the sport would appreciate watching a more cost effective way to fish for carp. I appreciate your videos I really do but I struggle to understand the need for so many different baits being used at once.
@jeffbylett6638 maybe because it's the way he likes to fish, fishing can become tedious at times and rebaiting with different products is something different to try. He also has his own brand of pellets and goo, ya know...he's doing what he enjoys while maybe growing his own business... ...which is none of anyone's business, ironically. Just let the bloke do his thing, keep scrollin. By leaving a comment you've just potentially aimed your algorithm towards more of the same content.
I always try and stick to fishery rules where possible … Especially with the size of the channel and I always check the fishery website and notice boards, however I could not find any for Rosemary wood. I have since been told that braided hook-lengths are NOT allowed (apparently there is a none official website with a list of rules). I apologise for making this mistake, please swap the braid out for mono or fluoro if you visit. I decided to still post the video rather than scrap it due to the time and effort filming and editing.
Sounds like the fishery is at fault really then should be clearly on there website and somewhere on site for everyone to read. Far play for still putting the video out sound like a nice place to fish and it was a honest mistake. Great video again guys
The board is on the right as you enter the main gate, about 6ft deep in weeds............ That's how bad this place is, zero maintaining and a death trap in places....
I reeled an 8m pole in after it had been dragged in by a small carp it belonged to a young kid on the opposite bank who had got off his box and left the pole on a holder unattended
I heard that the place was told it had to shut down ... The bloke who owns the land isn't happy with the way it's run or something Litter problems etc ... I've fished that lake once Started on carp rod and boilies to catch nice bream every cast 😂 Switched to tip rod and wafter and got a carp straight away ... Spent the rest of the session on waggler rod fishing maggot getting a roach a chuck ... some nice silvers in that lake 👌
@@ianwest9784 I can't see why it wouldn't. Despite it being freezing, the big lake was relatively busy. In the summer it is rammed so they are making some cash. Just wish they would invest some of it back into repairing the road surfaces.
Hiya, another good video. Its a little off putting with the state of the fish, but if you think there ok that's good enough. The peg you was on a bit narrow< but that doesn't stop you. How did your dad do?
Went to a commercial yesterday and it was very busy. Everyone seemed to be throwing groundbait in by the bucketful. No-one was catching. Fish were so full of feed!!!! Complete waste of time! Went home. Won't go back until after the schools go back in September.
Kids are a nightmare mate. 90% of them anyway. It’s just because they aren’t going with adults that can rein them in. I know a lot of fisheries banning kids.
Yup, need a tractor to survive the road in.... Line, floats and crap everywhere... Loaded with drug smoking, drinking, dogs and some idiot razzing around on a quad bike... through the pegs.... But don't worry, the owner will shout at everyone to be out by 6.45pm...
Sorry, have to say ill not be going back here, 5mins drive from me....the 2 brothers (ex International POLE fisherman) do not have a clue for specimen fishing, the fish are battered, the fishery road needs to be improved, never seen a fish above 20lb out there (personally) they ram it with there own house pellet. 1 of the brothers shouted at my son, why are we using so big hooks, sorry but if your advertising 30lb fish, your not gonna use a size 22 hook, he also was firing actoss the lake with a ridle to shoot birds, while people fishing.
Good morning, have you ever done a review on Blake Hall fisheries near Cheadle Stoke on Trent, it's my local go to 4 main pools and one very small pool usually used more by beginners and children, very very busy place especially on match day's, parking next to most Peg's but in my opinion Peg's are in need of maintenance. Great watching you thanks for all advice you give. Gwen 🧓

Where is the expert ? 😂 those bags will last 3/4 sessions Jeff. You don’t have to use them all in one go.
When did he say you have to buy it ? Use sweetcorn and salt in the pva bag if your broke

@More_Beer 😂😂😂 is made me laugh !
hi mat that looked a very tight swim for landing fish....so well done on getting some of em out!.....keeping it real as always..... tight lines
It was a very tough swim that 😂
The more I watch your videos the more hooked I get. It’s making me want to get back on the bank and catch some more carp 😂
Great viewing as I run indoors
Saturday morning viewing 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Morning time with Westy that’s not a bad start of the day 🎉
Congrats on 10 k westy
loved the video👌
Great video, I swapped over to the omc lock hooks, seems good, time will tell😊
Another entertaining video. Keep em coming
I reeled an 8m pole in after it had been dragged in by a small carp it belonged to a young kid on the opposite bank who had got off his box and left the pole on a holder unattended
So bad mate
Nice one Westy , this one is only 10 miles from where I live so will have to try it.
Give it a miss pal, terribly run
Give it a miss pal, terribly run......go to Mere Lane instead...
@@paulhigham6047 whereabouts is that mate ?
@@lee-v5z6l Mere Farm/Mere La, Preston PR4 6JU
Best get there quick, heard its closing down as owner isn't re-newing the lease
I heard that the place was told it had to shut down ...
The bloke who owns the land isn't happy with the way it's run or something
Litter problems etc ...
I've fished that lake once
Started on carp rod and boilies to catch nice bream every cast 😂

Yep, I heard it's closing down at end of the month. Owner nor re-newing the lease
@@andrewmantova8801 I have been fishing there today and it is very much open as usual
@pr248 so I believe. That many rumors flying around.
@pr248
I hope it stays open to be honest

you seem to be pretty local to me bolton/manchester. whats your favourite venues to go to? think ill try your baits out seem to be doing well
Follow the channel buddy, you will see the ones I go to the most 👌🏻💪🏻
Fish it while you can, heard its closing down soon
Good video as always, just a shame about the state of some of the carps mouths…over fished and poor care when caught I guess.
Hi Westy - how is your new chair doing? You done unboxing videos few months back - any chance for update on how is it after some time?
The korum one ? Yes it’s a decent feeder chair 👌🏻
@@WestysAngling this Korum Deluxe it the one I meant 👍
Hiya, another good video. Its a little off putting with the state of the fish, but if you think there ok that's good enough. The peg you was on a bit narrow< but that doesn't stop you. How did your dad do?
He didn’t do very well on this session Barry 😂 I included all his catches ha!
@@WestysAnglingsee gave him best peg again. 😂
Have you any future plans to develop method ready 2mm pellets?

Nice and easy fishing there mate isint
Nicely done Westy . Shame about the state of the mouths on them fish ...
Currently fishing here 😂
Why are you closing pond
I have heard he selling rosemary wood the owner and the pegs are in disrepair
Awful fishery , fish mouths are ruined an there all tiny there’s not been 30s in there for years
Yup, need a tractor to survive the road in.... Line, floats and crap everywhere... Loaded with drug smoking, drinking, dogs and some idiot razzing around on a quad bike... through the pegs.... But don't worry, the owner will shout at everyone to be out by 6.45pm...
Are those beautiful rods Insurgent Recon? How much for those? :)
I think I paid £55 each ! They have been great 10ft rods so far ! Can’t argue with Sonik products
@@WestysAngling Absolute bargain!
@@WestysAnglingSonik is the No.1 for me 👍🎣
Apperntly in its prime it was like a fish every cast
I think it’s still pretty good in terms of catching 👍🏻
I fished it a few weeks back on corn, had around 40 carp between 9lb and 14lb, couple of double runs. Best water I've fished in terms of catch rate.
@@pyracantha6028that's commercial fishery for you👍👍
Yeh, about 10/15 Yr ago, couldn't get on anywhere.
Cud u of picked a more awkward swim westy lol
My dad picked the best one and stuck me on that one 😂 bloody hard work that swim. Panic tunnel of reeds 😂
@@WestysAngling I have to admit I would have walked past that,with my dodgy casting and that feeling of being in a tunnel sod that ,u did well bro
Closes permanently this month guy who owns home bargains has bought it turning it into a fly fishery 😢
You sure ? I have heard differently
@@WestysAngling that was the staff in taskers seemed pretty sure
Apprently not shutting now but going into a membership lake was supposed to close end of august but still seems to be open
Thats what I've heard as well
Closing end of September
You wouldn’t get a 30lb carp in that landing net LOL
You must not fish yourself because if you would have you would know that you could fit 2 30s in that net and have loads more room left
Sorry, have to say ill not be going back here, 5mins drive from me....the 2 brothers (ex International POLE fisherman) do not have a clue for specimen fishing, the fish are battered, the fishery road needs to be improved, never seen a fish above 20lb out there (personally) they ram it with there own house pellet.
