Great session Si & some awesome fish, I fished orchid & the alamo swim about 20yrs ago but in all honesty I was a little bit out of my depth has I'd only been carp fishing a few yrs, it was like a football pitch in front of there & I just wasn't experienced enough, after watching that I'd love to return & put things right, you usually make it look easy 👍
Another top quality blog. The red kites had a breading progam in Buckinghamshire a few years ago, I'm surprised you didn't see more? They are a daily site for us, even nesting in our garden trees
Well done Si, you have not lost your Orchid touch, right result!!! I'm still working in The Philippines but managed an extended trip back last year, fished Alamo for a month, you had the same amount of 30's in 3 days that I had in the whole month mate😉 Top Angling!
Simon What a video, with out dout one of the best, what a session! Morgans has to be one of the best looking fish around,well done for catching it. Don't stop making the videos it would be a great shame not to see them.
Yes it was a Red Kite become pretty common now but I remember going from the Midland all the way to Wales just to see one,great video showing what day ticket waters do hold nice fish
Loads of Red Kites in south Oxfordshire. I live 10mins from Dorchester and this was one of the main sites for releasing Red Kites. Awesome birds of prey.
Absolute quality Simon , Love that first mirror Oscar.!!.. Really old warrior ...Probably caught loads of times but still looks immaculate . Great stuff ! . Cheers Nick
@@SimonCrow I'm doing good thank you Simon just got membership ticket reinstated for my old club, been had look about now getting my stuff ready for first session out in 6 years, cant wait, cheers Simon regards LJ.
As I always say on your videos. I really look forward to watching them, love your style of fishing and watching you on some amazing venues. Great work with your captures too. I will also be getting on the DNA SLK range, looks a great bait and cant wait to bag some lovely carp on it soon. Take care mate 👍
Well done Simon excellent result mate id love to fish there historic lake I caught one out of pontefract park m8 23 pounder first trip after the big leather that's in there 30 pounder so spend a bit of time there then move on tight lines mate doing a great job 😊👍
Great video! I’m back in the UK from Canada for a couple months and hoping to get a sesh in October - November Any advice (anyone) for fishing the colder months ?
Did you have exclusive access, lake looked devoid of anglers? Great result and some brilliant fish. I went there in 2018, water levels were very low but managed a few bites on a 24hr session. Be lucky 👍
No mate there were other anglers fishing. A couple of well-known anglers fished the Alamo a few days before and blanked. I just timed it right, they were on the munch big time 👍
Was this a private session. Lake looked very empty. 4 of us fished it the week before. Powleys and the Drum and a double swim over the other side. Was sooooo weedy. Only saw 4 fish come out in the whole lake over the 72 hour session, two of which were from the same swim your in 2 guys from 5 star baits.
No it wasn’t, other anglers were there...two of my mates fished the same swim as me a few days before me and blanked...I just timed it right...that’s carp fishing
Simon I've followed you for years even before there was TH-cam used to read your stories in the magazines. I am now working on the m4 and noticed some big pits spoke to reading district angling phoned the local tackle shop i really do love the look of big pits old lakes with history. I've always fished brickworks and old resivours down my way don't really have a lot of time on my hands with work and family i have to do this for me by myself but would appreciate some advice from you i fish the same bottom rig as you always have I'm not about looking fancy just what works
Always enjoyable watching Simon , is running always on your agenda when fishing ? My running days are over due to a snapped fibula but good on you to wind in and get the heart pumping .

Great video!
I’m back in the UK from Canada for a couple months and hoping to get a sesh in October - November
Any advice (anyone) for fishing the colder months ?
Don’t use much bait, go for singles, stringers or bags 👍
Did you have exclusive access, lake looked devoid of anglers? Great result and some brilliant fish. I went there in 2018, water levels were very low but managed a few bites on a 24hr session. Be lucky 👍
No mate there were other anglers fishing. A couple of well-known anglers fished the Alamo a few days before and blanked. I just timed it right, they were on the munch big time 👍
@@SimonCrow not knocking it mate, you got some footage of the swims and seemed not many about that was all. Wicked result 👍
Cheers mate 🙌
Amazing Simon buddy
Cheers Lee
Another Excellent vlog . Can you please tell me what alarms you use?

That rig will catch you carp all over mate. I don’t know much about those lakes so you’ll have to ask locally 👍
Hello Simon. Great video. What happened to the weeded up fish? Was it big L at 32lb? Cheers
It was the fish that followed mate 👍
Always enjoyable watching Simon , is running always on your agenda when fishing ? My running days are over due to a snapped fibula but good on you to wind in and get the heart pumping .
It is these days Steve, I’m running six days a week most weeks 👍
On the avid rods what is your choice an advice jon
Extremity 12ft 3.5lb for most situations 👍
Simon Crow Carp Fishing TV thank you I’ve not fished for 12 years having to many kids an got rid of my sprit Hi S a mistake but looking at a few different rods keep the good work up 👌
Wood carving of a mirror that last one

Is that old boy still living at the lake? Good Angling simon
Yeh he is mate, Crazy Pete they call him 👌
@@SimonCrow wow he's been there for a while now 👍
How come you havent got a safety line on your baut boat ?
How big was morgans ? You didn't say !
