Hi Clive, You are so very kind, thank you. I draw great inspiration and motivation from reading and responding to viewers comments. Apologies for the delayed response.
Hi Jozse, I glad the relaxed vibe came across because I set off wanting a relaxed day by the river instead of the usual roving approach. I've got some interesting films in the pipeline but is there anything you would like to see ? Thank you for your continued support and time spent commenting.
Another enjoyable video. Loved the night footage, I thought for a moment that you had another fish on! Well done on the earlier chub in difficult conditions.
Hi Harry, I was hoping for a trotting film but alas the river had other ideas. I was thinking of you when I included the night clip and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you as always for your loyal support
Another enjoyable video, I think I will be watching plenty of these in the coming weeks,as I've just had surgery to remove my gallbladder.I have to take it easy for the next four to six weeks. I don't know what is worst, the op. Or not being able to fish.😊
Hi Mark, Sorry to hear about your health issues and please accept my love, best wishes and speedy recovery. I shall aim to continue to keep your piscatorial fire burning. Thank you as always for your continued support.
Hi Mark, Thank you for your time in both watching and commenting. I was once told to only keep a fish out of the water as long as you hold your breath.
I been watching you channel and I love this style or format you applying where it's pure fishing without the bull s....t and your camera work is excellent I do every type of fishing from Marlin ( abroad ) seafishing in anglesey chalkstreams for barbel pike wild river carping even pole fishing and catfish I've always wanted to experience all aspects without limitations I it would be great to see some underwater camera work such as fish feeding or taking a bait or perhaps some chalk stream salmon fishing because as beautiful it is on rivers we always wonder what us it like beneath the water and thank you for such a awsome channel it what I've been waiting for❤
Hi Jozse, Thank you for replying there's is so much in your impressive CV I'd like to cover on this channel although I dont think Mrs Silent Angler would sanction a Marlin trip. I contemplated getting a Salmon licence for my local river Usk however I felt it would be a case of chasing unicorns as there's so much angling I want to share, I guess one life isn't enough. I experimented with underwater filming during the summer and found it like yourself fascinating. However when editing a film it just didn't work, I felt the mystery of what lies beneath the surface was lost. Thats what captured my imagination as a child and perhaps it might inspire someone to grab a rod and head for a river somewhere. Thank you as always for your support.
That first peg you we're fishing looked like a peg another well known bearded Panama hat wearing angler was fishing in his video and if it is you have the bragging rights. 🤣 Funny how them blackbirds always let you know when those tawny's start turning there heads . 👍
Hi Martin, I'm sure Des would be flattered to be compared to me. Can you imagine how scary it must be for the wildlife hearing that call as darkness falls. Thank you as always for your support
@@silentangling oh I'm sure des wouldn't mind 🤣 as for the tawny owl 🦉 there pairing up as you no doubt noticed on your film and that bloody screech they make catches me out every time parking the car up the other night and I know there in the trees at the side of the bungalow " they wait to ambush me as I'm walking down the path . 🤣🤣🤣🤣🦉🦉🦉
Hi Paul, It was in fantastic condition and lovely rich colours. The tawny owls have been very vocal of late, guess it's coming into their breeding season. Thank you for your time in both watching and commenting.
Hi Steve, Thankfully the bleak seemed to of vanished around these parts. I must admit I never go far without a small pot of pellet paste but I never added fish oil so thanks for the tip and thank you as always for your support
@@silentangling Welcome. I add fish oil into blitzed halibut pellets and smoked paprika oil into robin red pellets. My theory is that in colder water the paste needs a bit of help to leach out its flavour. It can even be frozen. Adding egg means it has to be used fresh though.
@@stevewilliams5428 thank you so much for sharing such great tips. I always wanted this channel to be a depository of angling knowledge so thank you for the contribution.
This channel says it all, just pure delight, calming, and just makes my day, thank you for the effort, and well done.

Another fab video with non of that ‘don’t forget to like subscribe’ crap that we all fast forward! Captures fishing perfectly. Thank you
Hi Mike, The thanks goes to you guys as without an audience I wouldn't make them.
Excellent video and sooo relaxing to watch!!! I love river fishing ❤ great camera angles can't wait to see what you do next !!!!

I'm okay, just have to wait, till I'm back fishing. Keep that fire burning.@@silentangling
My kind of fishing vid, ........and the fish out of water for a minimum time - well done all round.

@@silentangling I think you and I went to the same school, ............. and I do not like some of the ''new ways''
Love the films, and Love the hat, same as mine. Great taste. 😃
Hi Mark, Thank you so much for both watching and commenting, I admire your knowledge and skill as a rod builder and now I admire your dress sense.

@@martincallaghan8817 It's the foxes mating that always sends a shiver down my spine
@@silentangling vixen sounds like someone being strangled ' I new roughly when it was coming because the dog usually gives 3 sharp yaps . 🦊
@@martincallaghan8817 that's interesting I've never noticed that but I'll be keeping an ear open for that this winter.
Nice chub ,nice clean eh mate well done,good to hear them owls.

Got a bit rowdy at the end...
Well done on all aspects of this video
Hi, Many thanks for your continued support and kind words. I guess it must be Owl breeding season as they've been very vocal for a few weeks now.
Many of my spots are still plagued by the mighty minnow, I make my own paste in a blender from pellets with fish oil added.
