Something about a chap smoking a pipe 🤔that seems to convey 🤔 ahh this chap is obviously expert 😀. Happy memories of porcupine floats, perch bobbers, , waglers , zoomers, stick floats, balsas, Newark needle floats, round bait boxes, 🙂, wicker baskets, 😳ooh me bum, 😳 swing tips, Ivan Marks, Ken Giles , Ray Mumford, Kevin Ashurst, Ian Heaps, choices of ground bait 😉 brown or white, bronze maggots, the Angling Times, Jumpers for goal posts , the dip of the shoulder, skills learnt in the park, the diamond formation, hmmm isn’t it. Marvellous 😉
Brian's a busy man. Hard day at work in his shirt and tie, squeezing in a bit of fishing, before meeting the other casuals at the pub before the footy tonight, for a good dust up.
I fish that exact spot each year on the North drain for pike, and I'm sure Brian caught the only bream I have ever seen on there 😂 . Thanks for the download
Shirt and tie for most things back then, work, gardening, fishing, watching football.. My father-in-law used to give his neighbour his old best suit when he bought a new one, to wear on the smallholding. Big bream will be caught by carp anglers now on some kind of bolt rig, and they'll be dismissed as nuisance fish.
Thank you very much for sharing these. 🥰 Do you remember a program called Angling Today? Used to be on a saturday morning hosted by Terry Thomas - not the actor - very early. I was on before Tiswas , with Chris Tarrant ( another fine angler ) and Sally James , just fine then........
I remember that programme Angling Today, it was also on late at night about 10.30 pm , I was about twelve years old and I used to stay up and watch it. It covered all kinds of angling, fly fishing, sea fishing, there were some on pike fishing even eel fishing in canals. Terry Thomas was an eccentric type but he had great enthusiasm, loved it .
@@davidmclachlan6592 you must be about same age as me 63. remember the programme well and used to stay up to watch it. I can still recite the theme tune lol
A lot more fish in the North Drain in those days, they would have quickly polished that lot up. Agricultural and domestic pollution, ill advised dredging, avian and other uncontrolled predation have left it a poor shadow of what we once had.
On my club lake I put in four loafs of bread- four tins of corn in only four foot of water. I’ve caught a 100lbs of bream on numerous occasions. If you don’t heavy groundbait you won’t get the bream to stop in your swim.
Watching this took me back to when this country was a kinder gentler place to live.
Now the country is doomed, ruined

lol 😂..brilliant! 👍
Don’t forget windbeaters and Angler’s Mail pike bungs!
I wanted to make a sandwich, but Brian’s taken all the bread again.
Brian Young has been using, and is continuing to use, the only loaf in the house....
When anglers were gentlemen and not forgetting to wear a tie 😆
Very enjoyable watch, especially as I can remember as a kid sitting on a wicker creel doing is and loving every minute.

@@DBCooper2 .....yes I'm 63, thankfully I'm still fishing and enjoying it as much as ever, Terry Thomas must have left us a long time ago......?!
I remember it well,Terry was a lovely guy and Chris Tarrant was ofyen seen with him on the bank.
I’m not convinced that Brian is there for the fishing at all....
Wow, thanks for this mate, got a new subscriber ! 👍
Excellent video; thank you
Can't believe how much float is showing
when fishing was a pure joy and not so much about making money
I miss our country when it was all like this.
As do i
England,oh England, where has it gone ?
We gave it away for the promise of a pound off income tax and a better tomorrow. We were lied to of course, but people are still falling for it.
Cannot believe the amount of ground bait, fed the whole river.
I was thinking the same, surprised he caught one ha

Almost no bream left in the North Drain these days.
That'll be Brian Young's fault. All that bread he chucked in....
Brian appears to be right handed, using a left handed reel…..
Hi
Bread kings
I am surprised they caught any fish at all with those noisy old fly reels 😱
Centre pin reel, they don’t hear they feel vibrations
Anyway that’s a open faced reel
First robot anglers?
Way too much ground bait old chap!
haha

Not at all
