He said he went up the river. The Thames way before it flows through London is not that polluted. Let alone the fact that he could catch a rainbow trout shows that. Trouts need a fairly high water quality to survive.
@@coffeeandtea5495if further down,the river will be bigger. He is definitely going up the river since Thames River is a collection of small rivers flowing down
In fairness the Thames has gotten a lot cleaner over the years. Nowadays it's one of the cleanest rivers in the world that passes through a major city.
According to global citizen (international education and advocacy organization), “The British government launched an ambitious restoration campaign that banned factories from dumping pollution into the water and installed water treatment plants all along its course. Over time, the river began to recover and today it is widely regarded as the cleanest river in the world that flows through a major city.”
As a trout fly fisherman of Montana and Oregon I must say I am quite impressed with his skills shown in this short. He actually seems pretty good at it and some experienced fishermen I know can't even fly fish so that's impressive for a brit lol.
The Thames is relatively clean and belived to be the cleanest river that flows through a major city. It gets dirtier the further east it goes but Max was clearly a long way west where he caught that trout.
@@nyan-cp5du Good shout. I would be suprised if the Thames was cleaner than than the Limmat. Maybe the thing I read was referring to capital cities?? 🤔
@@UncannyLivingThat’s more because Trout is prepared similarly to salmon. People fry trout all the time in America it’s just not a fish that’s economical to sell in restaurants as fish and chips. Catfish is one of the most popular meats for fish fries but they have bones in them and are fried like the trout in this video.
This makes it more, or less, British when you realize rainbow trout are an invasive species. But, they are native to British Columbia, and their existence in the UK is a result of British colonialism, which is just about the most British thing I can think of!
They’re native to North America in general. Recently some rivers and streams where I live were restocked with them, really has helped clean up the rivers and provided better fishing opportunities
It’s pretty much the British version of the East River. Speaking of that river watch Seinfeld episode 18 of season 8. For those who never saw just watch it’s relevant
How sure are you about that? Pollution wasn’t mentioned without a reason, it’s not just air pollution, there’s a long list of chemicals that all work their way into nature and animals that, while in small doses, all contribute to risks of cancer or bad health in general. Especially micro plastics is what I’d be worried about here as it’s already proven we have small amounts in our blood due to similar situations
@@bowiemtltrout thrive in clean fresh water, if the water is bad there would be no trout. Same for fresh water clams. You can make assumptions about the water based on if you can find either trout or clams or both in it.
We used to heavily fish oysters from the Thames, in fact we were well known for it. In fact they were actually the food of the less fortunate: they were abundant and cheap as chips.
Downriver would be in the North Sea. Up river would be up to 16 short of the Bristol channel. I would love to know which part of the Thames actually has fresh rainbow trout. And frozen chips. Importantly, the most famous British dish is not rainbow trout. Or cod. It is roast beef or chicken tikka masala in some places.
Bruh I’ve caught an 3 foot long rainbow trout and this man just treated a mid sized one as if it were the rarest fish ever like he’s already a natural fisherman lmao
I'm American, so I actually thought "Fish and Chips" was, like, some fish sticks and Doritos. But now that I see what it is, I like the look of it, and i might make it. But with fried catfish instead.
