- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 มิ.ย. 2023
- Korda carp angler James Armstrong showcases THE most exciting way to catch carp! With Spring in full swing and Summer looming, it's from now onwards that improving days of warmer weather and higher pressures will bring the carp up in the layers, and opportunities to catch them on the surface will present themselves.
.
Carp fishing really doesn’t get any more exciting than actually watching a fish take your bait, which is why floater fishing is such an exhilarating form of fishing, yet it is often overlooked or done half-heartedly.
.
In this Surface Fishing Masterclass, James Armstrong shows you exactly how to get the best from this method and the best ways to apply it in varying situations… everything from the simplest form of free-lining floating bread crust, right through to fishing at long range. No stone is left unturned.
.
Whether you are trying this method for the first time, or are already a keen floater angler, you will definitely pick up some tips and tricks when it comes to rigs, tackle and bait to help you increase those all-important bites ‘off the top’!

I love how Korda have put a pinch of Vaseline in a small jar, quadrupled the price and gave it a fancy Korda name 😂 🤦 wicked vid and i love the drone shots. Even though I've been surface fishing for 20 years or so i still picked up some tips from this vid so thank you for the upload😊
Fr 😂
This i by far the most interesting masterclass i have ever seen...i like it so much! This is carpfishing...surface-fishing at its best! Masterclass!
Thanks for the kind words buddy, always appreciated 🎉
Thanks Martin, we think Jimmy and the team did an amazing job on this one too 👍🏼
@Korda TV Carp Fishing were is this location in aylesbury please I live in Aylesbury and never find it
@@Jimmysgonefishin hi mate what rod do you use for your surface fishing
Another banging masterclass, really enjoy James Armstong’s stuff on Cypography. 👏👏
Thanks Pez that will all now be going completely free on my own TH-cam channel 🎉
Hey, just discovered you today, as was looking for some surface fishing video, as went at the weekend and have no gear for it, went carp fishing on the bottom, but there were alot on the surface. Awesome video and really like the fact you show some that got off the hook, so we know it's just not us losing fish, alot of these videos never seem to show losses so commend you for that! New sub right here! Thanks
Finally some surface fishing , great edit !!
Nice watch James n korda boys 🤙🏻
Thanks Paul, appreciate you taking the time to comment. 👍👍
Thanks James great video. Being an old new Angler its the best way to fish for me.
Really nice to see…..a small water to start……light rod, cork handle, one rod and a screaming clutch…so exciting 👍 As someone who only fishes small waters in the UK (mainly because I am serverly sight impaired), i find this so much better watching than a big bowl in France.
Superb Masterclass Jimmy! 👍🏻
ihave not tried floater fishing before, but after watching your video, I will give a go as the fish near me are on the surface in this current hot weather. Thanks for your guidance.
Thanks Norman I wish you the best of luck
haven't fished in 17 years since my spinal injury used to love summer at the lake side taking carp off the top used to use dog biscuits i miss it alot
waaaaw mega thats was the most masterclass. Thanks James 🏆🏆🏆
Thank you for the kind words Richard, really appreciate it 👍🏼
Wow Surface Fishing is cool!🙂
lovely lake fish here nearly every week and there's some beautiful carp in here as well as 2 sturgeon.
Loved this masterclass. Maybe even my favourite so far. I was surface fishing before it was popular and now it’s a little more trickier on busy waters. I definitely picked up some tips from this so Thankyou. Jimmy really is a top notch angler and a really good guy to boot.
Thanks James appreciate it
Boom what a master class your the best James Armstrong 👏
Cheers man 🕺🏼
do love surface fishing, and the tactics/methods used by james down to the knots and methodology of the whole vid is how i fish and have done for years.. did 6 hours yesterday, all 5 from the top, smallest an 8lb with two 12lb's, a 15lb and a 17lb.. the visual aspect makes it so exciting, just waiting for the bread to get sucked in and... boooom! fish on! agreed the wildlife can be an issue.. either chase or shoo them away.. or go an bait up somewhere else for the birds!! bags on bird seed can be good to keep them occupied as it goes down through the layers
Great video with good information 👍🏻
Nice video guys!
Absolutely cracking video! Going to be heading out this weekend with my nan to go back to the lake I fished as a kid, been 15 years since I've been there and even though I've got my new pellet waggler setup to try out, still going to have a rod set for free lining bread as that's how I started out and its by far my favorite method! 😁🎣
Epic video 👌
Smashed it Jimmy lad!🔥
Cheers bro 🎉
Brilliant!
Love Jimmys vids! 👏🏻
Nice one fella appreciate that
As always epic 😊
Nice one dude 🎉
Amazing advice ❤❤❤
Nice one Jimmy.
I really enjoyed this masterclass.nice showing the different variations including the traditional styles.great work as always korda 👍
Thanks Jason 🕺🏼
@@Jimmysgonefishin You're using a Guru Pulse8 line in the video but when I google it, it looks like it's a sinking line? Or is it floating?
Nice film what like is this?
@Jimmy’s Gone Fishing - By James Armstrong your very welcome mate 👍
excelent, James is top tier presenter and fisherman.
Thanks for your kind words 🎉
Love surface fishing my favourite type of fishing, cant beat the excitement watching the carp taking the floaters around your hook bait before nailing yours. Look out for the bird life tho they obviously love a floater
Topman!
Top work jimmy lad
Nice one Dale hope you’re good fella
Amazing JOb.
Hi James, great masterclass - loved it! How do you deal with birdlife when fishing open water at range? I've seen others put a "washing line" across the swim into a far margin but that isn't always possible
Very good masterclass Jim! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Also where did you pick up the mixed sized floating pellets?
a great floater and zig water with some huge carp to be had, and theres plenty of big commons in there , the 33 was a small one... great watch
Very true! 🎉the surface thirty was the target though. A big fish off top
My local lake great little water with some stunning fish
Nice video!
There's no better way to catch a carp in my opinion. I smashed my pb on my last session a couple of weeks ago fishing mixers on the top. Bang on 44lb and a new lake record mirror 🎣👌
Fantastic
I wrote about this method of fishing with this float 17 years ago😉
Good stuff good minds think alike
Superb
Loved that!
Nice to see a different face from the norm.
If it wasn’t for the bird life, I’d do lots more surface fishing.
Shame you didn’t mention how to avoid the birds or tactics to help
Really appreciate that Neil 🎉
Give me a cam I’ll show u how it’s done Armstrong is a clown
Great if you’ve got the place to yourself and you can wander around
Great video, I use the largest interceptor tho always as it helps with hooking and has never caused any issues.
Fair play... as long as that works for you and you're catching more carp. 👍🏼
@@KordaTV Cheers guys, saves carrying different sizes too 👍
Qaulity watch 👊🎣
Thank you... glad you enjoyed it
Great video
Thanks pal 🎉
@@Jimmysgonefishin No worries ive subbed to your channel
Great video got a lot of tips from it. Do you ever find that the carp go for the float? The lake I take my 9 year old daughter to is very un fished and shallow. The carp seem to come up touch the float and then don’t go near the bread hook bait. They take all the free offerings. I reckon that’s got to be how we are presenting the bait?
Now and then buddy!! 🎉
What was the darker of the two hookbaits you used that you trimmed and glued?
9:54 i do the opposite i cast my hook bait out first then wait for a take if you throw to much bait out less chance of your bait getting nailed first made that mistake to many times and learned
Where in Aylesbury was that Pond James? Chearsley?
im sorry but use a tiny hair to fix your hookbait and no superglue im sorry but had to mention it. but this is a masterclass i have been looking for so many years and finally it is here thanks for answering my prayers team Korda
Each to their own fella 💪I like the hook to be slightly disguised inside the floater
@@Jimmysgonefishin i can understand it but is superglue not bad for the fish ???
Brilliant. Second only to Sir Terry Hearn 😂
❤
Is Monks Pit a day ticket lake? can't find a website for it at all and only a few articles from a few years ago. any help appreciated
Excellent informative video. What rod are you using if you don't mind me asking?
It’s a Shimano TX2 mate with a Stradic gtm reel
Fantastic video thanks james
What type rod are you use?
It’s a Shimano tx2 buddy
Where i buy It?
Is the rod a tx2 2.75lb tc
That fish fizzed off
Big time 🕺🏼
Whats the name of the lake in aylesbury? Great masterclass ❤
I would like to know to
Looked very few others there for Monks pit!.... But nice job...
I was there last year and loads of my sessions, maybe only one other on. I was also there talking to Jimmy during one day filming
Have been looking for a rod specific for this type of fishing, would love to know what was used here. Selection in Canada is limited.
I used a TX2 floater rod mate
What pop ups and mixer are you called
What size pop up is that and the pink topper
Great vid, what's the lake called? i live near Aylesbury, and I would like to pay a visit
@dribble did u find this pond I live in Aylesbury too
big shoes to fill after the 🐐old Tel's previous vid. but good job
Can i ask what is the brown piece you are attaching the pink pop up to is it a brown pop up or a mixer can you let me know what the brown piece is please
A brown duo Floater hook bait Simon. I use the CC Moore ones but any decent buoyant pop up that’s brown will do.
Lol trying to talk like Danny yessssss ohhhhhhh get innnnn 😂
bonjour, quel est la marque des pellets et ou peut-on en trouver en france
Great video, which lake is the farm pond in Aylesbury please
I doubt it's a day ticket - nearest one is Oakfield fishery and I wouldn't say that was in Aylesbury
It's not in Aylesbury.
I have had them under my feet !
How do you combat Ducks, gulls and Coots Jimmy? They piss me right off
Took hours looking for Carp on the Top
Bloody hell it’s the smallest Man Made Lake going
I didn’t see you there fella, maybe you were 😂
What rod is James using?
Lucky sometimes u james😂😂top angling
😂😂😂better to be lucky than good I guess haha 😂cheers dude
How many times did a fish try eat that white controller lol bring back the old green ones
Absolute gem of a video, nice 1 lads.
Cheers Tariq
Thanks Tariq
Were is this located please i carp fish i live in Aylesbury
Anyone no what the first lake is called ?
Hi do you mind me asking what rod and reel you used
Shimano tx2 and Stradic bud
I also used scope
37:37 mantap kawan 👍👍👍
Why do most pros used micro bared hook? all the ponds I go too they are not permitted
Requires less skill
@@mastodonseven not really lol
IMO they stay in better especially on weedy lakes.
@Jimmy’s Gone Fishing - By James Armstrong
I'm open to learning something.
But isn't it a matter of fact a bared hook stays in better and the actual whole "point" of them.
So you can make mistake while paying fish without the hook coming out.
What I thought anyway?
I don't use them as I don't like the idea of causing unnecessary harm to the fish when ripping them out and this will result in me losing more, but i think its worth it as fishing is cruel enough.
So I just look at it as an extra challenge and a little more kind.
I'm willing to learn something tho
Drone???
Never done that before . Sight pink on top . Class that. I prefer just bread . I'd beat u bread against glue
Haha what at 100yrd plus? Doubt that. But fair play 😅
I enjoyed watching this but feel it's made for TV the situations you described are so unrealistic for commical waters the birds would not leave you alone to the point I have given up on surface fishing all it does it cause anger to other anglers, where are the ducks? Seagulls? 👍
Absolutely! It’s amazing how he’s got the whole lake to himself… 🤔😂
@@declanscriggins5020 for your information Declan, the lake was open as normal, and there were other anglers. No royalties here pal 👍as for birds…trust me there were hundreds of gulls, you just need to be clever in feeding elsewhere whilst you fish in another area
Totally realistic…it was full of gulls, I just fed them off a few swims down 👍it was as realistic as it gets. No royalties, no closed swims, I turned up and fished how I would do anyway. Cheers, all the best
What reel is he using
A Shimano Stradic, smooth as silk
@@Jimmysgonefishin legend
Can I ask the name of the first pond please? Would like to take my step son
Hello my names leon i am 15 years old and have been doing carp fishing for a year if im not on the bank im watching carp videos and i was wondering if maybe i could do some videos for you guys like a bit of a sponsor if you will ive got a chest mount so i can but i just want to take my fishing a bit further if no thats fine
Trouble is same lakes have band braid
Then use mono buddy
Fully scaled 20... lol yeah ok
Cart beat dog biscuit
Lol carp soup pond ..... 🙈
Carp soup end ;)
Can you pls reply to my comment Korda I’ve been at Norton Disney but I’m leaving today 😢
Needy!
@@daldal616 he must b blankin
But it's still spring, so why say it's summer? 🙈😂
Erm…because it was summer? 😊
@@Jimmysgonefishin ah not filmed this year I take it then lol
@@BenWiggins101 that's it dude
Let's be honest, any novice can catch off the top. There is no challenge to it, which is why it is banned on most venues.
Okay mate 😂
Going to a heavyily stocked tiny lake is ridiculous. You could catch em on dog shit in there
😂👍
Looking forward to your Masterclass... ps how to you put 🐕💩 on the hook?
@@KordaTV love this
