A message for the Rule police - the maximum size hook on this fishery is a 10. My dad missed this and was using a size 8 feeder hook for the Perch these aren’t a big hook and have a lower gauge wire. So isn’t like a size 8 carp hook. The owner obviously knows us well and I’m sure he will forgive us on this occasion. Always stick to any applicable fishery rules 👍🏻 apologies for any upset and distress caused by this mistake 🎣 tight lines and happy new year all 🎣
I want to thank everyone for your support and for watching the videos this year! For anyone that wants to support the channel the best way is to pick up some bait or fishing essentials at westysangling.co.uk Happy New Year 🥳 🎉🍾
Love watching you and your dad. Cracking banter, Kinda jealous I never had that with my old man. Enjoying all your vids at the moment. Especially the ones with your dad. Haha Thanks
Nice Mirror, well done Papa Wset. As I'm new to coarse fishing (only been once so far) I have a goal for this year to land a 5lb + Tench. So, a video on tactics for targeting Tench would be great.
Even though you're dad only caught the one fish what a fish for this time of year go on papa west pity you didn't catch the big perch but it's only the start good luck for the rest of the season
Happy New year to you and your family . Another stonking down to earth video, Good tips plus a great approach to fishing. You need to set up a fine system for your Dad when he forgets his Westys Angling towel😛
Loved that reaction from your dad when he got that 14lber… cracking sport this!!! I want to see you and papa westy go do some sea fishing 😂 that would be a laugh… happy new year all.
happy new both. what a cracking carp your dad caught well done both hard to catch this time of year. would love to see you both traveling around the country .
I have been thinking an under water would be interesting watch westy keep up the hardwork lads great watch as ever and we'll done on your river barble also
cant complain about getting a carp at the end like that! good stuff. Also to the message at the end, Id like to see some different bait approaches like where you spend a couple videos expiermenting something different. It could be using a spod type mix(grouts/wheat/corn/pea etc) on the method feeder which might need some ground bait mixed in it to breakdown better but that gives you options on hook bait so could be a fun way of fishing if havent got pellets to hand. Im sure there is a bunch of other options too :)
Happy new year to you both and the rest of the Westys community. Loving these fishery review videos. I have been away from fishing for 15 years and these vids have fired up my passion to get back out there.
Happy New Year to you, your dad and all subscribers. I feeder fish so I’m biased but I love the variety of different fishing you do so just keep doing what you’re doing. I do like the fishery reviews though so keep up the fantastic work and here’s to 2025🎉
Hiya mate, I hope you & dad are well. Happy fishing year ahead. I went out last Friday to my local lake, 4 hours I got 2 silver 3 bream. The way I see it is it down to enjoying your time. Of course your pissed of if you dont catch but on those day you could annualize what was wrong, in most cases nothing is wrong apart from we are fishing in the wrong places. Good video keep them coming, I really enjoy them.
There are some big Perch and Pike on the Rochdale canal at the back of morrisons on Hollinwood avenue.You can park in morrisons near the bridge over Hollinwood avenue.The big Perch tend to go for small live baits. Happy new year to you and your dad.The Boat and horses on Oldham rd (Rochdale canal)has some big tench.
Can be tough at times but sone absolute cracking fish in there ! And of course the chance of running into me and dad 😂 high hayes is like a westys angling community centre! Everyone knows us 😂
Hi westy and daddy westy Happy New year to you and family thanks for the videos again many more to come hopefully I would see you do some more carping in stoke on trent lol
@@WestysAngling yes had quite a few in there up to 2lb it just seems to be quite a few of them in there catch them whilst not targeting them it may be the water natural in woodland overhanging trees bushes etc always catch them close in
Well done lads and a fantastic fish for your dad and I do like your fishery review videos but I also like you targeting fish videos, like you I want a big Perch and I only caught a perch over 1lb at German lane last October, another angler caught a 2lb beauty out of there and I asked him are you not weighing it he said no he’s caught bigger than that so they are definitely in there
Heya Westy, I’ve been trying my hand at winter fishing. I’ve blanked every time haha 😂 any tips for winter method fishing would go down a treat. I’m quite novice at winter fishing. Your videos are keeping me going whilst bored being ill at home. So thanks and keep up the hard work!
Happy New Year. Great video as always. Really enjoy the fishing sessions you do with your dad. Would love to see more tackle tips and reviews. Always find them really helpful.
Happy new year guys,, great banter you have no acting it's proper son n dad just being themselves,I like the feeder fishing side and your unboxing vids, I live pretty near you so hope to bump into you both one day, am old to so I won't mider you both lol, well maybe your dad a bit more lol,, cya on the next one guys 😊
Great video can see your refining your approach for the perch . One thing I will say tho is perch prime time for on the hunt is low light . Early rise and evening . Also they are creature of habit they will be happy to return to a spot they like. Especially old fish. So it's well worth moving around especially when fisheries are quiet . Another tip is to keep trickle of a few maggots going in to get silvers active in mid water . Or use your stinky stuff in a groundbait that's enough for tiny fry . You will get one 💪
Oh one more thing . Inject worm to pop up it up from the bottom. It's full of shite this time of year . I caught a two pounder recently on a red pop up red krill . You could soak some in your predator stuff
Loved this video and that you've time for your dad, mind you he looks younger than you 😂. I would like to see you find locations that have 100% not been fished to see how you go on.
Happy new year westy and dad All the best I think you should go for crucian carp nice 4lbs if that’s not a challenge I do t no what is lol All the best guys Sion
Watching 👀 you from USA 🇺🇸 I have never in my life ever saw your Fishing Technique ever used in USA 🇺🇸 We fish for Preditor Game Fish and not Bottom Feeding Fish. And the Fishing Equipment you are using I have never seen before in my life. And the Bait you are using, I have never seen before either. I guess it's just two different Worlds 🌎 Anyway, Tight Lines 🎣
Don’t be that guy Mark. Use common sense, size 8 feeder hook not carp hook. They are a lot smaller and finer gauge wire. We also obviously know the owner well and bring them a lot of free advertising and additional revenue. I’m sure he will let us off on this occasion 👍🏻
@@JohnBall-gw8cl Rules are there for a reason. Admittedly I don’t agree with some but when you see as many fish as I do damaged you might understand. The comment wasn’t a bad one just stating a fact.
I have a read many positive comments from mark@. If you can’t take the odd negative comment it shows your true colours Westi. Rules are rules. If you want to be a UTuber be professional

Happy New year to you and family thanks for the videos again many more to come hopefully I would see you do some more carping in stoke on trent lol
great video as usual best big perch i have had in that area is heskin hall fisheries pool 1
What size John ? I think they are in pretty much all the commercials round us to at least 3lb. Just need to get to them 👌🏻
@@WestysAngling yes had quite a few in there up to 2lb it just seems to be quite a few of them in there catch them whilst not targeting them it may be the water natural in woodland overhanging trees bushes etc always catch them close in
Even though the fishing is getting tougher yesterday on method feeders i had a good session catching a 20lb common and a 18lb gohsty
Good lad lukas ! Your pal tell you he met me at German lane?
@WestysAngling who? Since I live far from you in Dorset
Well done lads and a fantastic fish for your dad and I do like your fishery review videos but I also like you targeting fish videos, like you I want a big Perch and I only caught a perch over 1lb at German lane last October, another angler caught a 2lb beauty out of there and I asked him are you not weighing it he said no he’s caught bigger than that so they are definitely in there

Happy New Year. Great video as always. Really enjoy the fishing sessions you do with your dad. Would love to see more tackle tips and reviews. Always find them really helpful.
I enjoyed the realistic and cool fishing videos. I enjoy catching small fish in Japan.
リアルでクールな釣り動画、私は楽しみました。私は日本で小さな魚を釣って楽しんでいます。

Nice size carp for your dad
Regarding what I would like to see is detailed pics of the setup you use for each method and what components
Coming soon the the method feeder masterclass series 👌🏻
Great video can see your refining your approach for the perch .
One thing I will say tho is perch prime time for on the hunt is low light . Early rise and evening .
Also they are creature of habit they will be happy to return to a spot they like. Especially old fish.

I caught a two pounder recently on a red pop up red krill .
You could soak some in your predator stuff
Well chuffed for your Dad!!! Smashing carp!! I love my feeder fishing and am partial to big bream. Would love to see some doubles!! Happy 2025!!!
I always knew your dad was the better angler 😂😂😂😂 great video....more of the same 😊
You will think so next week 😂
Well done once again Daddy West showing the youngster up once again , how about big tench sessions , to see who catches the biggest one
Loved this video and that you've time for your dad, mind you he looks younger than you 😂. I would like to see you find locations that have 100% not been fished to see how you go on.
That’s what a decade in the motor trade will do to you. Ages you fast
Great vid and banter again. How about a challenge to catch a roach over 3lb, it’s not easy but so rewarding to compete 👍🎣
There are probably big roach in the Ribble ! But I’m not sure where holds big roach up north 🎣
@ sorry not much help I live opposite side to you. Worth a go on the Ribble mate any excuse to be on the bank 😁
Great video happy newyear tight lines wet nets for net one
Happy new year westy and dad
All the best
I think you should go for crucian carp nice 4lbs if that’s not a challenge I do t no what is lol
All the best guys
Sion
Not even sure where they get that big in the north west buddy !
@ good challenge for you tho pal lol
Wrap up warm and plenty of coffee 😂
A small "Square" of Elastic Band, stops the worms coming off, better than a Maggot !!
Buon anno from italy🎉❤
Happy new year 🥳🎉
I think you lads should try for a 3 pound perch this year. Happy new year lads.. 👍
I find perch easiest on a waggler. Couple maggot on size 8 or 10. Cast regular, strike fast.
Subbed on all platforms, would like to see your ways of targeting bigger carp. Tight lines.
Great content ....a video on drop shot fishing for perch would be good ?... subscribed 👍🏻
Want to see more fishery reviews .but would like you to do some in preston or garstang or surrounding areas
Happy new year paul and mat .
Great video as per usual. Any chance on doing a little pike fishing ? Dead bait or spinner .? Or even fly fishing ?
We are enjoying the channel as it is but maybe some dead bait pike as I am wanting to try that
Watching 👀 you from USA 🇺🇸
I have never in my life ever saw your Fishing Technique ever used in USA 🇺🇸 We fish for Preditor Game Fish and not Bottom Feeding Fish. And the Fishing Equipment you are using I have never seen before in my life. And the Bait you are using, I have never seen before either. I guess it's just two different Worlds 🌎
Anyway, Tight Lines 🎣
I have a few followers from the states and I think carp fishing is on the up. So you may start seeing similar equipment starting to pop up 👌🏻🎣
@WestysAngling
I have a Question? What type of Carp are you Fishing for?
Is it Commen Carp or is it Grass Or Crucian Carp?
Thanks in advance.
@StevenGianatasio in the uk, we have - common, Crucian carp, F1 carp (hybrids) koi, mirror carp and ghost carp 👌🏻🎣
@WestysAngling
OK! Thanks. Tight Lines 🎣
Whats the rod your using ??
👍
Great video as always westy. But How come you never fished in your normal spot ?
Not a particularly perchy swim 😂
happy new year 2025 to you both.
More Cat and sturgeon fishing
More Pike next year
Might want to read to rules before fishing the complex size 8 hook maximum allowed on that fishery is a size 10
Great video butt definitely wasting the money at this venue.
Nice carp for this time of year. After reviews in 2025
Get some sea fishing done chaps
Happy new year all the best for 2025 to you,the channel an you r fall the best
Would like to see much of the same we are enjoying it.
Sorry to give you a negative comment but your dad just said he’s using a size 8 hook.
Check rules max size 12.🤦♂️
Don’t be that guy Mark. Use common sense, size 8 feeder hook not carp hook. They are a lot smaller and finer gauge wire. We also obviously know the owner well and bring them a lot of free advertising and additional revenue. I’m sure he will let us off on this occasion 👍🏻
Rule police. Well said westy. Some people just don’t have anything good to say. So have to get jealous and pick at minor things.

His dad was targeting Perch (a predator fish) you want him to use a size 18? Typical match angler. You lot do more damage to fish than anyone else
happy new year to all the family,great vids keep them comeing m8,
